Ricochet Alt Idea: Bouncer Bouncer Plasma projectiles now can extrapolate kinetic energy from each bounce and turn it into extra superheat, therefore more damage and physical impact from each bounce. and this extra plasma coating puts a strain on the generator, so energy has to be regained at a slower rate, and the number of bounces lowered. The weight of this modification resulted in the turret's rotation needing to be geared down. +15% more damage each bounce +10% more impact force each bounce Reloading (eng/sec): -15% (=28 seconds to reach a full energy tank of 1000, instead of default 20) Rotation: +35% Max number of bounces: -50% (6 bounces instead of 12) Rank: 3 stars, 180k, the image host site I use ain't working :x.

I'd never think I would agree with you, but your right. (side note cyclone alt should be nerfed to fire 6 rockets not 8)

it's not specifically a nuclear siren, it's an air raid horn (yes I know this post is almost 4 years old but couldn't resist criticizing it, lol, guys remember when memes used to look like this?)

kinda lame honestly

shaft one too OP shock freeze already exists, and yours is too OP mag alt sounds kinda reasonable, but I wouldn't say totally frozen, maybe fully frozen as much as a freeze can do, and the technical description could be more realistic. other mag alt needs work hammer alt too OP

sorry it merged my 2 posts, I meant I like the idea of JGR in pro battles, but I don't like selective restrictive equipment :lol:

ya that would be fun, kinda not the topic here tho I don't like this idea, nor like the idea of being excluded from a battle just cos of what I like to use.

well, the range doesn't change, just the damage distribution over range. but it also suffers at a short-range yes,

I keep speed cos the less eng/shot comes into effect in the long run of your confrontation with an enemy, for example, if you were fighting a no-alt rico you would be behind in damage cos of decreased damage, but you will catch up to them cos you have essentially a bigger ammo tank or capacity, they would run out before you. so the speed increase was just for an immediate positive effect for the damage nerf.

I can assure you I am absolutely insane.

well that was the fastest approval I've ever seen xd EDIT: just came up with a 3rd but can't edit the title :X

how many times has this been repeated xD I agree tho +1

no, we don't.

2 Ricochet Alt Ideas: Economical Ammo, Reverted Capacitors Economical Ammo [no picture yet] Modifications to the plasma generators are made to decrease energy per shot, thus being able to fire more shots before your plasma-tank runs low, this does have a negative effect of damage per shot, but the energy lost is transferred to your plasma accelerators, so an increase of projectile speed occurs. Energy per shot: -16% Projectile speed: +20% Damage: -10% Reverted Capacitors An accident in the factory, equipping ricochet's capacitor box in upside down had some interesting effects. For fans of getting the most out of your gun at the most range, this effect will make ricochet's best damage occur at its maximum range, however, it will do a standard ricochet's damage at long range at short range, so in other words, the damage ranges are flipped, the least damage will occur at the shortest range and it's best will occur at its maximum range. Some noticeable increasements have also been made to the plasma accelerators, for better speed to your projectiles. Projectile speed: +45% Max damage at max range, min damage at short range(see illustration)

*suspicious*

*When your shooting at a ghost tank but the real one was behind you*

true, but from my experience blue almost always pulls off a win.

it's still close in damage numbers, can we see price&rank? that has a lot to do with balance.

but spread occours the farther away you are right? but twins don't fire from far away, its far best close up, where there would be little spread, I have the big plasma gun alt for my twins, yes I miss a lot too, but it's still far more OP than a normal twins when used in its natural habitat, close up, (but not too close up :p).

looks very OP, reload is now 0.2? impact now 176? and recoil is only 33 now? not to mention the speed, to put recoil into perspective Smoky M0's recoil is 100.

soo, its a railgun now?

I'll call it Devastator

yes, part of it, but also it would work equally as well as long range as it would actually be able to read the terrain and steer to the target, not just as the crow flies and crash into a wall there hiding behind.

I like the idea of just 3 Super Smokies, no secondary gun, so you can go full-auto and hold down the trigger.
