new gun

i think the new gun skins look good, except i dont like the green one for some reason.

also that red and white canister/handle thing look really out of place. i think maybe it should be a more metallic canister, but i dont know much. and we probably wont see it much in game

also, what skin are you going to use for the game? will it be team color based, a choice of the player, or just a single skin?

the red and blue skin will probably be used

Create one menu and then we can choose our Gun Skin instead of making a default one.
And how about the coding for the new gun? is it complete?

nothing done I guess
tnse wanted to do the coding stuff today...and he was (and still is) online all day long...but wasnt talking to anyone from the team
no clue whats going on, he'll hopefully do it tomorrow, so we can go betatest with the new weapon

actaully i agree i think the canster thing should be a differnt color or maybe just removed, specially if it adds more ploys (though i am not sure that it is many at all), seem a little off to be but other than that it is kickass

i'd honestly like to see something more futuristic, not a yellow crappy gun again. Take a look at the alien gun in Unreal II, now thats my kinda ball launcher!

i think this gun looks great, but that bright white canister looks out of place

howabout the possibility of each team making thier own skin and finding a place to put each team 'jersey' for others to d/l.

love the gun. thinking about 4 skins, if epic ever get around to coding 4 teams in a future patch (we can only dream), imagine 4 team deathball

4 Team DeathBall? holy shit, that would be insane

Post by **DavidM** » 19-03-2003 10:49

it wouldn't work at all, concept wise...

i dunno, i think it would work if gameplay was altered to something like...

All teams start with 10 points, each time a goal is scored against them, they lose a point, once they are at 0 points, all players on that team die and enter spectator mode, their goal is covered, and the rest of the teams battle it out

i'm sure you can picture it, it would certainly require much more team play, and use of (OMG!!) DEFENCE! :p

nah, wouldnt work at all
i would always score against the team with the worst defence and such
and passing would be impossible cause there are about 6 enemy players between you and your next teammate

plus all of epics code is only catered for 2 teams down to the damage made by each weapon and the skinning
