~New Gun Ideas~

[Xlightning79]

Alright. Before I get trolled to death, I'm new to TI Forums. My friend and I just concocted some ideas from our creative minds.
Here are some new weapon ideas for 5/7 classes. I included nothing for Sharpshooter and Support Specialist because they both have a wide variety to choose from.

Commando- Glock 18 as a side arm. 3Kg, 33 round mag, Low damage and accuracy but high RoF. I just think A sidearm for Commando would be nice.
Firebug- Flare gun as a side arm. 3Kg, single shot break open flare pistol, shoots flares that ignite enemies. I think most can agree that another fire based weapon would be fun.
Demolition- RPG-7 as a speacial weapon. 8Kg, Single shot rocket propelled grenade launcher. Damage between the grenade launchers and the Light Antizombie Weapon. I think it's good hybrid between Nade launchers and L.A.W.
Berserker- Dual Wieldable Machetes as melee weapons. 5Kg with 2, More expensive add-on to single machete, faster attacks for more damage per second. I would like to see this so the underused weapon would see more action.
Field Medic- Sawed off Pump Action as main weapon. 6Kg with a 4 round tubular magazine, lightweight and fast cocking shotgun. I think that a small shotgun would be nice so the Medics could have some nice scattergun capabilities.

Well that's my friend and my ideas on some new possible weapons. Tell me what you guys think.

Xlightning79 Out.

Actually most of these have been suggested before (Glock, dual machetes, flare gun).

Cant be bothered to comment on those, but what comes to the medic w shotgun, I dont like it. Support is the shotgun perk, so there is no reason giving medic one too.

 

[Zeptorem]

Use the damn search function.

The only thing there that hasn't been suggested before is the medic shotgun idea, and that's only because shotguns are for support, not medic, and other posters realize this. Even then, there are literally dozens of weapon suggestions threads to post them in.

~~~Also, using tildes to draw attention to your thread is really obnoxious~~~

Zeptorem out.

Oh NOoOOoooEs!!!! ='C
Even though you have No Glory, you have Glory to meh!

 

[Skint]

I dunno, guys. This 'demo-lotion' idea seems like a winner. Discuss.

Thanks for not trolling.

Well i would rather consider you as a troll since those ideas have been repeated a lot of times (i say 16 times ). Also, before posting, always search through the forum

 

[Undedd Jester]

Well... a fond welcome for sure xD

Anyway yeah, I'd say I would love to see a glock, since its my favourite pistol, but there really isn't place for it in the game, sad to say

I definately think there are better ideas out there than the flare gun... the flame gun just seems so inefficient for killing things to me I really dont like the idea.

RPG-7 is pretty much the LAW, I'd rather see the LAW fixed than an entirely new rocket launcher replace it.

Dual wielding machetes would be cool, very cool in fact, but its been discussed

Shotgun medic, yeah a support specialist would simply have to recieve a bnus for this weapon, so therefore it would jsut be another support weapon instead of a medic weapon.

Keep suggesting though dude, just use the search bar first to prevent Zeptorem going all Adolf on you

I quite like the ideas here, though they have been suggested before and are a little unnecessary. Still I like the idea of giving the berserker something between the machete/axe and chainsaw/katana, and I believe firebugs really need another weapon. The other ones are a bit unneeded, but not awful ideas.

Oh, and to anyone who complained about a shotgun suggested for the medic- the MP7M is basically a commando weapon (though the shotgun would need to be more medical to fit, and with the MP7M doing ranged healing I'm not sure if there is anything you could do with this that doesn't overlap... maybe a medical syringe 'bayonet' or something like that? But with that being inferior to the MP7M and the medic gun being pretty cheap it would seem pretty pointless, unless it was a tier 3 medic weapon and was somehow better)

Me to, thats why I suggested a Tomahawk

Actually that sounds like something the medic should have, Although I think that would just cross over as a weaker mp7

IMHO, the order of new things should read:

Love for Firebug
Love for Berserker
New weapons

Balance and additional weaponry for firebug will make it more playable for people whose interest in this perk is minimal at best; same with berserker.

New weapons would be nice, however IMHO again, more powerful weapons are not needed. I know that you didn't suggest more powerful weapons, i just thought i'd get that out in the open. However, more guns would be nice. But only at Tier1-2 stength, because more variety is better.

Such as a bolt-action sniper rifle, with little or no penetration and less damage, but more ammo and slightly faster than the Crossbow.

Because some people would rather use a rifle due to the velocity of the projectile, among other things.

And the Glock idea is good, however you work it out.
However the MP7's 4.6x28mm round is weaker than a 9x19mm round, so having it weaker than the MP7 is not really logical.

It'd be like having a H&K416 as Tier 3, and a M14 as Tier 2; and having the M14 weaker despite the more powerful round, simply because you wish it so.

But i applaud you for posting this, and taking the criticism we throw at you in good humour. Not everyone is so good-natured.

Thanks. I didn't know the 4.6mm is weaker than the 9x19mm. I know the 4.6 has better velocity though.

True that.

The MP7 operates more like a scaled-down assault rifle, with a round made entirely from a hardened steel penetrator.
