| Post subject: | R78 Variants |
Since we already have the sniper rifle variant, why not add a couple more?  Perhaps a carbine?  A UTC 7.62mm R43 Assault Rifle that is perfect for taking out ranged targets and cleaning house. Or an SMG?  An old UTC 10mm R41A used in the days prior to the first Skrith war. Useful in a pinch, and packs quite a punch. A 20 round G3 and a 40 round MP40 would look quite nice in Ballistic Weapons.

First of all i have to ask : did you photoshop those?  Secondly: I think that the carbine is a good idea, not so sure about the SMG  Thirdly: i dont really like that stock  and Finally: how about a 50.cal anti material rifle.  Overall i think this is a cool idea!

Kien, not all guns have to have some sort of gimmick or unrealistic design. Think of the thousands of rifles out there. Most of them are barely different. |

Although,in game terms if it doesn't have something unique it often isn't worth it. Unless this gun strikes a balance somewhere,it probably isn't worth adding. EDIT:Okay,actually part two is a response to that AK47 thread,but I might as well leave it here to voice my opinion without repeating myself. |

SHAD0Wdump wrote: Although,in game terms if it doesn't have something unique it often isn't worth it. I disagree with that statement. Look at Call of Duty 4, Counter Strike or Metal Gear Solid 4. There are loads of guns in those games and none of them have any real unique defining characteristic. Does that mean we should remove all the guns in those games except for the M4 or the AK47? I don't think so. |

I said as long as it strikes a balance or is unique... And I doubt they put real thought into it when they stuffed their shooter with randomish guns(COD4) |

All I'm saying is that you don't need to go over-the-top with odd features in order to make a weapon fun. I like the choices CoD4 and the other games give you. |

An un-unique gun would be a unique gun with what we have currently. : P We have no guns that are just nice, regular rifles. |

But don't you think at least it must have some proper SF? The SRS900 has scope ( and even silencer :3 ), and the M50 has it's GL.  Btw it pains a bit that the Ranger does not have any SF.

well, small things can make a gun unique. a different colored laser, a blade, special amunition, design... or simply making it Overpowered COUGH *GRSXX* COUGH

Geez, what is it with you guys? I like simple guns. Simple guns are good, they round out the arsenal, and aren't gimmicky. I hate gimmicky. You don't need to have all sorts of things to your weapon to make them good, and adding all these other things to make them "unique" does not make them unique. It just makes them feel like just another gun they threw in there for the heck of it if it, adding on last minute things to it that doesn't even change the gun significantly. |

I expect guns in unreal to have 2 different fire modes.  Not just being common weapons.

Two fire modes for these variants: 1. fire gun 2. melee |

read all of these abd i thought, wait all you need for the gun to be good in bw is a particular batelfiel trait that makes it invaluable all the guns from the sets have them not including bonus packs |

Assuming that you photoshopped those, i know how to take any objects from unreal tournament 2004 and port it to maya. some animations can also be moved, at least the meshes can, not the actal animations. This way you can actually edit the existing R78, but animations will need to be redone...

Oooh, sounds nice. Sounds real nice. If an actual model was made for these, I'd be able to quickly skin and code it into the game.

what about some guns that are crappy like a sks is a good gun but has a low ammo capitcy and takes longer to load unless you bought those new parts for it like 20round mags anyway the point I am trying to make is if there were some more inferior guns it might make game play a bit different and Imagine you would have some new guns that most people would hate but a few would use them very good ooh and whats with the guns you have up there looking like a MP 44 form WWII you must like the MP44 |

The m7xx shotgun has bashing as 2nd. Fifty-9 is so much cooler than the shiny thing.

XRS10 does so much more damage at range than the Fifty-9. Way more controllable recoil for me, and chaos is extremely small! As for shiny thing, you know... that's easy to change to a different skin so it's a dark gray or black if you want. Hell, you could (blegh) make it pink. |
