[mwip] Gauss Rifle

douchebagatron

how?

this is what i was plannin on doing. i know there isnt a clip on the gun but i couldnt think of any other way.

coil

1) Don't add a clip. At the most, have part of the body pop out like the HMG's clip does (could be a different shape).

2) Doesn't make sense to have the right hand handle the clip. It's faster and more efficient for the left hand to do it, which is why most clip release levers are accessible by the right hand without even taking your hand off the grip.

douchebagatron

well i was tryin to take up time, the hmg reload is a long one.

douchebagatron

suggestions anyone?

SRT_Rabb

GLFattyTheGorge

SRT_Rabb

thats what i was planning on doing.


also i would like more detail on the reloading, like where the thing would be, how it should look, and all that such.

thanks srt that helps bunches!

SRT_Rabb

hey we're all dong our part to see this thing til it gets finished!

Pegenator

Remember, there's still a problem. Try to throw the gun on the floor ingame and then select grenades <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Spetsnaz

still its comming along very well

douchebagatron

hmm, didnt think of the grenade thing. but why would you throw a hmg on the floor? oh wait, if you get grenades before hmg that wouldnt work. i dont think this grenade launcher will work...

XxSoldieRxX

screw teh nade launcher then and keep working on teh pwnage hmg <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

SRT_Rabb

id sorta want to see it as a replacement for all like the LMG version is stock, the GL version has all that other stuff with the singular loading probably m433 HEDP's im assuming and the the HMG you have a heavy extended barrel minus the grenade launcher, and then you have like a sword or something cool like that under barrel, yea me with my insane ideas and such

Due to the quite similar design, I'd say that the reload should be more like the Bizon one's.

SRT_Rabb

ertt, they modelled the gauss rifle in SC:Ghosts differently then SC, and BW but IMHO i think alot of people would rather see the more chunkyfied and agressive looking one from the olden days

douchebagatron

thanks cookie those are sweet! and i think they kept the same concept, just changed the details. still 2 barrels and all, and whats this i see?

TommyVercetti

Damn intellectual property! I want the PlanetSide Gauss rifle... That is one hot lookin' gun.

Yea right... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Anyway how is it going with the gauss rifle?

douchebagatron

its not goin at all, no one will give input on what i should do now. is that a clip in the pic i posted above? if it is should i use that one on my the gauss?

Zaggy

First: I have absolutely zero experience at real weapons, or how weapons work.
(I'm already happy that I know you have to put in ammo, shoot and reload, and that the weapons drops shells if used)

But you could make it reload like the normal NS HMG, like this:

-open the gun by moving a little flap on top from __ to / and at end |

-remove an ammo-holding box from the top

- put another ammo-holding box in at the top

- close the flap from | to / to __

- pull the thing like you do as on the normal HMG

- Laugh at me for my n00bness @ gunpart names and stuff <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

douchebagatron

yes i was thinking about that, but what about that clip lookin thing in the picture i posted above? which do you think would look better?

Zaggy

Hm,

First: A clip can't hold that much ammo with that length

Second: Putting a clip out and in, and pulling a trigger (is it called that) wouldn't take as much time as the normal HMG reloading animation

SRT_Rabb

he could always add in pulling the charging handle back...or some other animation, that makes it seem oh so much cooler

coil

Of those three pictures from Ghost, only the marine in the middle is holding the standard Gauss rifle. I don't know what the other two are; presumably some SMG-ish weapon created for Ghost.
