ANYHOO

i started htis topic to see what ppl wanted to use up the last 3 wepon slots with...be it flame thrower or a barnacle launcher for the gorge or an adv. welder

just post more ideas <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

Lightning_Blue · March 2003

Last three? IIRC, there are only 4 slots coded into the game.

Comprox · March 2003

3 more slots can't be added for marines, they HUD is in the way.
As for aliens, I doubt it, the current system has one base ability, and one per hive, and I don't see it changing soon.

(LB, Original HL had 7 or so weapon slots)

grepdashv · March 2003

LOL, and it sure would be nice if something actually went in slot 4, wouldn't it? (One common request is mines, so that you don't lose your pistol when you get them.)

Talnoy · March 2003

what i meant is what would u make the last 3 wepons lol soooorrry guys <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

boberto · March 2003

hand grenades!

Terr · March 2003

The marine laser pointer. It doesn't DO anything but make a lightshow. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'> Maybe invisible to aliens. "See that corner? There's a skulk over there..." "Where?" "Here, I'll show you." <pulls out pointer from stylish executive black case> <skulk hears him put away the LMG> "GRAAARRRRR!"

<cough>

I would say that as a purely temporary measure, and one that can be sacrificed in the future as need arises, that all readyroom participants be issued waterballoons and/or paintball guns.

TacOne · March 2003

Yay @ paintball!

Perhaps not the gratest idea, ppl would play paintball in the RR instead of joining the game....

boberto · March 2003

it would give mappers greater incentive to make fun, exciting ready rooms!

Typhon · March 2003

1. Flamethrower

2. Some sort of support weapon for marines. Something you drop for 1 guy in a group of 5 or so.

3. $NiPr Riflle with lazar pointr taht shots Rokets taht j00 can maek fly where you want!!!11one!

Akalamanaia · March 2003

heh
1)flamethrower,i love toasted skulk in the morning!
2)Gahhh i wanna design my own weapon ingame to fit my mood...!=P(constructing it from parts,selecting colors and decals..=P,could have ammo and firepower limit thought)
3)a grenade so i can suicide myself and try kill the alien trying to kill me with myself..if i die i atleast wanna do it so that i ensure maxim damage to winning enemy..

Bigwig · March 2003

Motion tracker

Replaces MT, must be equipped and standing still to use, emits "blipping" sound ala aliens, primary fire switches between motion tracker and friendly tracking (so you can see where team mates are, anywhere on the map). Otherwise works as regular MT.

deaths_hand · March 2003

a blow up gorge for the marines, maybe they could kick it too? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

EDIT: i could do many things to a blow up gorge, but nothing feels like the real thing! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'>

Thief_3_Wannabe · March 2003

1. Fists: For when your not in a knifing mood or taking on a fade in a ready room "K.O match", only one will walk away.

2. Alien Pheromones: Splash it on a teammate and let the fun begin.

3. Frisbee: Trick a skulk to chase after it or just toss it to a fellow teammate for hours of fun.

Jower · March 2003

Im with Typhon
hehe
And original half-life had 5 weaponslots

p4Samwise · March 2003

1. Onos babblers
2. Nano-boomerang
3. Lightsaber

Haha, I can just imagine it.

"Here gorgey gorgey, I aint gonna kill you"
*loads hmg*
*Gorge growls, and spits out an onos*
"AHHH OMG WTH H4X!!!11one"

LazerMane · March 2003

1. Loogie-gun (ever read Snowcrash?)
2. Nano-boomerang
3. Plasma Rifle (throws arcs of blue-white plasma towards living matter)

the reason i didnt say flamethrower is because i really dont think that it fits with the TSA theme. Ever been set on fire in AVP2? It is ****ING irritating. Same with skulks and other things for that matter.

The Loogie Gun is a non-violent weapon from Snowcrash that would fire a glob of arachnofiber strands suspended in a fast-evaporating liquid. This glob of crap would hit you, and the more you struggled, the more the liquid evaporated and the stronger the microfiber strands became. I could see a squad of marines or even a Lerk using a similar weapon. It would occupy your primary weapon slot as a marine and would use a lot of energy as a Lerk. But it would virtually encase an opponent while you had your teammates go and munch on him <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'> Projectile weapons would still be usable, but only a teammate with a knife/welder could uncase you, slowly.

The others are self-explanitory.

maybe the gorge could have a "cocoon" weapon that it spind around itself to protect it until help arrives, or while gestating into an onos

<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'> in, <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif'> out

leifbj · March 2003

I don't know about anyone else, but I feel that the CURRENT weapons don't go with the theme of NS. Machine gun? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'> Grenade launcher? Surely you'd think that in the future they'd have developed more... sophisticated weapons. Not that any sophistacated weapon would kill faster, but maybe if the LMG shot bursts of laser, or something. If anything is to be added, it should be more of sci-fi... less of conventional weapons. ie, maybe not a conventional flamethrower, but one that uses plasma as fuel. Something original. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Nemesis_Zero · March 2003

Laser weapons? Original? There've got to be multiple definitions to that word.
Anyway, straight from the FAQ, which you'd better check before making weaponsuggestions:

Terr · March 2003

Loogie guns---heh. How about the stunbunny or whateveritwas?

Jower · March 2003

Why the heckzor would the flamethrower acctually set you on fire ?
just a big ball of fire that hurts like shoooawway and looks all yellow and cuddly

Eclipse · March 2003

I just want a set of hand grenades on slot 4, that would round out my load out nicely

Ashkajioni · March 2003

I like the hand grenade idea.. but then you would have marines reloading there He's and toss spaming them. The power of a GL at any armory for free... Ewwwww!

Tieom · March 2003

Hmm...

1. Portable Commchair
2. OMG d00d mech! it w00d pwn j00! And to balance it make it cost a LOT of res, like 200!
3. The SPINFUSOR! Mix with jetpack for pwnage.
4. Yoda
5. AWP

yeah...

Thanatos · March 2003

For Alien

1. Dental floss (a must for skulks)
2. Lubricant (To increase speed in vents.. Would also allow Onos to get into vents with some help from other aliens.
3. Squeeky toy (So you don´t get bored when camping in dark corners)

For Marines

1. Toilet paper (for when I get ambushed and go to the privy in my pants)
2. Comb ( to get rid of the helmet hair)
3. Inflatable marine (To make it look like you are covered when building things)

Thanatos

Thanatos · March 2003

Almost forgot..

The comb and inflatable marine should have upgrades.

A mirror for the comb and a squeeky toy for the inflatable marine.

Skulk: WTH!!! My squeeky toy!!! H4X!!!

braindon · March 2003

Also, sometimes it's handy to have:
1. Main gun
2. Welder
3. Mines

I think hand grenades would be an awesome addition. Although each marine should only have like one when they spawn, so that aliens can know when they're out (unfair to have beginning grenatde launchers).
I also think the shotgun should cost 17 resources.

As for miscellaneous additional weapons, I think a laser can simply be mounted to the gun and can be turned on or off like a flash light. Also, a flamethrower would be awesome for damaging many attacking enemies, although it would be somewhat close range.

Jower · March 2003

No hand grens !
We got a GL already

With what ?
The nonexistant secondary fire ?

SoulSkorpion · March 2003

How about a portable Ion Cannon uplink... no wait, Renegade did that already.

...whoops, wrong universe.
