Yeah, we should start a whole new website specifically for duel *insert automatic weapon here*'s in BW ^^ Nevertheless, I think duel wielding should be possible for every weapon that it is realistically possible to duel wield. I.E No duel wielding of the G5 or snipers, etc etc, but lots of duel wielding for teh side arms and the SMG's.... ANYWAY, that section is now closed.
However, on the silencer approach, that's very very cool... Thing is, we want to be careful not to turn BW into "tactical ops: crossfire" that would kind of defy the point in BW... ^^

Isn't dual wielding knives and katanas also a realistic move?

yeah... I just thought that was a little obvious, I didn't go into too much detail. I like to brain storm...

Come on. . .there IS such a thing as too much dual weilding. Knives I wouldn't mind too much. Katana is going too far. Those are two-handed swords.

Okay, Carsomyr does have a point here. I'm tired okay, my POINT is taht you should be able to duel wield that which you could. Hell, you CAN duel wield shotguns, only it should slow you down immensely, and you cant duel wield the big f*** off shot gun. Can't remember the name. heh

/Rant

The whole point of dual weilding for BW would be your holding two different/ or two of the same sidearms like how the two Uzi's would be like (used in a way like the assault rifle in ut2k4) and the dual weilding sidearms would be kinda Halo 2 like. Their should be no dual wilding of any shotguns (almost spelt Sh*tgun ) cause your arm would break off and it would just look stupid cause you'd need 4 hands,except the small sidearm one ,or any of the mines/ grenades/ explosives. Also the XK2 SMG could possible be weilded in pairs of two, like the assault rifle you could just pick up another one and fire away, alternating fire between the two guns of course, also these could be combine with the other sidearms for dual wielding (again like Halo 2 style).

Yes it would be cool if you say pick up another knife from a dead foe than you get to hold two knives and when thorwing them you'd toss them from left to right than back to left than again tossing the right handed one, until your out of knives. holding two katana's is just stupid and thank go Casmoyr understands that.

errr, actually, I'll think you'll find that if you do a bit of research, it IS possible to fire a shotgun with one hand, so in theory you COULD duel wield a shot gun. You can look on google and there are pictures of tonk army guys doing. Ofcourse, you'd have to put one down to reload them, but I didn't say that you couldn't.
Also, another point, this BW mod is supposed to extend UT2K4 and keep us playing at least until UT2K7 is released, it is called UNREAL tournament for a reason and BW isn't completely realistic (Skrith weapons, rail gun) I know that duel wielding rocket launchers is stupid and I'll kill anyone that talks about duel wielding vehicles, but if you re read my post, I'm sure I spoke about duel wielding weapons that were actually physically possible to duel wield in real life.

Railgun is realistic, maybe not in BW, but the physics behind it are logical. I'm pretty sure a handheld railgun will exist in real life in a matter of few decades.

And firing a shotgun with one hand = Ouch!

Well, actually the rail gun is a real weapon in the army, only its about the size of a double decker bus. They have a less powerful one thats about as big as a family table. And yes, they do fire slugs, big metal depleted uranium cylinders.

wait HOW THE F**K do you dual wield a vehicle?

Yeah you'd knock your arm clean off shooting a shotgun in one arm, than again that arm would come in very handy (get it) when in close quarters combat, give your enemy a few smacks on the face... can i hear "you've been bit*h-slapped!

OMIGOSH!!!!! That should be in junk wars, there should be a morgue level, with zombies.... hee hee, you can pick up dead dude's arms and stuff... that would be interesting.

"You need a hand?"
"Sure."
"Malcolm was slapped by Bjossi."

lol ripping the shock rifle, with the hands
"macintosh's face was fatally enlightened."
"Macintosh turned the other cheek"

While I don't know about vehicles, using the dual wield mutator with the double-barrelled shotgun is lots of fun.

Ah yes, I remember using that combo with BW 1.1 beta, dual wielding shotguns.

Nice Bjossi

Oooh, where do you get that mutator from? PLease don't tell me taht it's already in BW or else I'll be very embarrassed...
And to clear this point up now, I was joking about duel wielding vehicles...
If there was a duel WELDING mutator that let you weld different vehicles together, that would be a little more interesting... Okay, seriously though, how about adding an X-ray scope to a weapon that could go through walls, but make it so you could only fire twice before reloading, after firing the battery or whatever had to recharge and reloading the battery would take ages... I think that would make it a bit more a of a balanced weapon.

It is a seperate mutator, you can find it on Atari forums. I'm too lazy to give you a link, maybe I'll do it tomorrow if you just can't find it.

By the way, shall we go on topic now? I'd hate to lock this thread, UglyPants would kill me.

I thought I went back on topic with the X-ray idea?

Yep i really would kill you Bjossi

The whole point is of this thread is not to spam it (MAC) with stupid things like X-Ray scopes, people are supposed to just read my old posts on Page 1 (the 3 ones with weapons) and talk about improvement or other additions that could be added to them.

If you'd use paragraphs, it'd be easier to see when you start discussing something else.

I don't have patience or will to read a big clump of text.

who me or Mac?

MEEP.... sorry, the thread was called "New content ideas..."
Sorry, I don't double space my paragraphs...

Jesus christ your fast at replying Mac.

It is a good idea to do a double space if you are going to discuss a different thing. Most people just read the first few words to decide if a post is interesting or not.

As for content ideas, I'm going to remention my idea for the Skaarj AR from U2. I'll look for pictures when I have time.

I never really played the actual unreal games, is the Liandri corp actually in them?

And weapon ideas from unreal are quite good if they havent already been used... obviously.

(notice the double spacing.)

Oh and typing fast? I have to... I'm writing an auto biography, I can touch type.

It is much easier reading your posts now. That request was a bit personal by the way, because I have very bad eyesight. I even use a blindstaff when going outside.

Liandri is not a part of Unreal or Unreal 2, those games are almost 100% seperate from the UT universe.

and i'll try to taken some with the mut.

oh right... I always wondered about that.

What about defining the story line for BW, I mean, some how... Not many people realise this, but if you look through all of the UT universe, you'll find quite a complex story (that involves reading all the bio's aswell)

STOP going OT Mac.
