by this i mean even if they swap weapons the backpacks remain on them, in fact why not have all weapons not in use straped to the user rambo style?

so really you just want the extra eye candy! It would be cool cause this of course would be optional but have the backpacks on even when the player is fraged!

A backpack would be hard to fit on every model I think. Aren't there collision problems with the RG and the juggernauts?

yeah but just have it like it is now when any character uses the railgun only this time the character would always have it on if the option was selected! Plus (as mentioned in another thread) the backpacks could have health or they could be destroyed after being shot at!

backpacks stay? hmm.. just for visual reason.. or maybe blasting packs on corpses will cause the same effects as on live ones? like a flame tanks..

yeah.. we'll see :)

I forgot to mention that I like the idea of weapons hanging on the player's back when not using them. Of course it could get crowdy there, but none the less it would be nice. :D

yeah but theirs way to many guns in a match. maybe the last gun you used prior to the one your currently using would be on your back.

ahhh... that would be very interetsing.. i dont think adding all the weapons to the players back is that good a concept.. sure it would look cool if maybe 1 or 2 were on him.. maybe like a pistol and knife on the legs, anfd then a big gun on the back.. :)

Yes, we could do this if the game limited your inventory... When we have a CS style thing where you buy weapons and have only a few, we could do this... Would look interesting if you have a flamer, railgun, minigun, G5 and 2 machineguns back there...

I think that would be hard to get on custom models but i think if you make it so that the pistol appears on every models leg bone than it could work. same thing for the knife katana etc.

The weapons don't all have to be there, maybe just the first few ones like sideram and melee are hanging on a belt around the waist, and two or three bigger guns on the back.

Yeah, a whole bunch of weapons hanging on players would look weird, like everyone's going on a camping trip or something. :D Just 1 or 2 might work I suppose, as long as you aren't weilding a railgun or flamer (assuming everything goes on the back).

Anyway, sounds complicated... I'd rather have those 20 'simple' guns! And I really don't mind if players just pull them outta their ass as usual. ;)

yeah20 simple guns sounds better than seeing your enemy carrying a machine gun on his back from one end of the map to the other. Go simple guns!

Plus, if every gun was attached to the model in full size, the model would be so crowded with guns that it'd be impossible to move at all. :P

next to being even able to kill the guy.

Author:  Bjossi [ Mon Jun 26, 2006 4:52 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

Yeah, the guns would make it pretty much impossible for bullets to reach the armor or the skin. :P

Author:  Mr.UglyPants [ Mon Jun 26, 2006 4:56 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

But the guns would make bullets deflect off of the model and hit and possible kill other players. !amazed

Author:  Bjossi [ Mon Jun 26, 2006 5:25 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

Yep, that actually would be cool if done with the level architecture itself, bouncing of walls and possibly hit other players.

But that would be annoying as hell. :P

Author:  Mr.UglyPants [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 7:02 am ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

yeah small rooms would become major spam fests of who can shoot the wall with more bullets.

Author:  Bjossi [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 1:36 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

I wouldn't say spam fest, rather just annoying that it is easy to hit you. Of course bouncing off walls would greatly decrease the speed of the bullet, decreasing damage as well.

If they make bullets richochet, I may just stop playing this mod. I love BW, but some things are just plain stupid.

Author:  Bjossi [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 2:43 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

It would just be plain unrealistic and uneffective because the computer doesn't know metal from other materials.
And yes, it'd be annoying if overdone.

Author:  Mr.UglyPants [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 3:12 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

It'd be just annoying period.

Author:  Bjossi [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 3:31 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

Yes, but instead of making ricochet and being able to damage you, what about it ricochets off walls and you can see the bullet just fall to the floor instead of bouncing around like crazy and hitting you?

Author:  Mr.UglyPants [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 3:38 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

that could be cool, more or less its just more eyecandy.

Author:  Bjossi [ Tue Jun 27, 2006 3:39 pm ]
Post subject:  always have Railgun/flamethrower backpacks on the user?

Nothing wrong with more eyecandy. :)

Couldn't agree more.
