idea for tier 1.5 weapon

[r_orangelight0 2]

How about a short range (firebird style) weapon that works through walls?

 

This could be seen as sonic waves or powerful microwaves i don't know.

 

The advantage of this would be places where you opponent is completely shielded by wall you could hit them.

 

Noted places being slope corners, corners of buildings, underside of slopes.

 

Now to make this balanced it should not have the same distance as firebird or freeze and only be 10-15 m

 

Damage should match firebird.

 

What do you think?

how can u stop it from being over powered ? :huh: :huh: :huh: :huh:

[Dr.Urbi 657]

That overpowered, in silence you would rush, better dont talk about farm or island

[BUGATTI_PRO_LATVIA 1]

Not good idea. Through walls its not real. All players will lose if u will shot through walls, houses.

I like that idea. I don't think such gun would be overpowered. Firebird's damage is not that high and the range would be short.

+1. About being realistic: this whole game isn't realistic, have you seen Freeze and Ricochet?

 

orangelight: would the range through walls be also 10-15 meters or would that be less? Would it be impossible to shoot through walls thicker than, say, 5 meters?

Railgun already does it almost, but just a bit - I sometimes get killed like that and it's not hacking - of you don't believe me, check yourself, but it doesn't go through thick walls, though...

Not true, that's delay or a glitch or something. It is not possible to shoot through any wall with Railgun. Shaft comes closer to it, since it's the only gun that can shoot a part of any turret sticking through a wall.

What do you mean...

[mchen 162]

do you know when your turret such as a railgun or a smoky sticks past a thin wall or barricade, the shaft can hit you if it hits the turret try for yourself. :)

if that is what is nessisary for the game to be balanced.

remember that the player on the other side can drive backwards very quickly to stop the damage anyway, and walls don't move so...

I don't think that is necessary, like you said, you can move away from a wall. I can't imagine the gun to be overpowered.

I was just wondering if the wall would block the fire maybe a little, or that it would influence the damage.

It's not a bug, and neither is it bad. At least if you use Shaft. If you use any other gun, just make sure your turret doesn't go through the wall.

I think that a limit might be good for through walls, but I think that when orangelight says 10-15m

at 10m it starts to become weaker and 15m next to nothing.

where firebird gets 20m range (so a tank 18m away with firebird would win)

I don't think it is nessisary for damage reduction through walls (although it makes sense logically)
