<div class="IPBDescription">ideas ppl</div> I was thinking of a weapon that contains a knife(bayo) ,pistol ,lmg ,shotty ,gren, hmg, so could u submit a few pics then we should decide on the best one and get it modeled. Theirs a tonne of ppl on this forum so their should be differant itdeas dont copy ppl;) lets see how it goes <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>.

See wouldnt it be good if u had one gun and u had a bind to change to your pistol and shoot for example right lick is shoot pistol left lick is shoot lmg mouse 3 is for knife? just an idea, all idea's welcome <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>.

i like you avatar what is it ? looks like matrix or something

thats from the movie equilibrium.

anyway, i kinda have a concept in my mind, its kinda like NS's grenade launcher, but instead of the turning thing holding grenades, there'll be a HMG and LMG and pistol and knife and GL mod. So when you choose a pistol, the thingy rotates to the desired mod. what do you think? :o

your english sucks but i get the point.

there was an old game named RedLine that had a single gun that you found ammo for instead of just picking up weapons. i could see this working on the level of just having this big multigun onscreen and instead of changing to pistol or knife, a barrel or blade pops out of the side.

but then changing weapons becomes a problem. so to fix this you could replace the W_weapons with corrisponding ammo types....... so if you pick up a box of shells and a shotgun barrel pops out and you start shooting it like a shotgun.

though the animations for changing weapons would be a stunt too. you could just have everything pull back into the gun and then whatever you switched to pop up at the correct time.

Take a look at Samus's Arm Cannon in the Gamecube game Metroid Prime - the default blaster expands and changes shape into the selected weapon, and it looks great.

Not really a fan of this concept...since if all the weapons are in one weapon why can't the Marine just switch modes? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

Well, with proper execution it could look really good, but I won't be downloading. No offense, it's just not my style. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Maybe cos he doesn't have the ammo for that particular gun? Suppose he could just pick up the wrong ammo from the armoury.... maybe he has to download some data from the comm network to enable the other guns.

I've been wanting to do a multigun thing for ages, but I have to get a modelling program, learn to model, learn to mesh and learn to skin first... so I'll just leave it to someone else who has time on their hands.

heres my concept i did in a couple minutes i put a shotgun LMG a nade launcher and a HMG but i didnt put a pistol because the hole point it is to have something if your weapon gets damaged/lost/or out of ammo i got thinking whats the point of having a pistol clip in it when you can have a bigger magazine for the LMG or HMG so i made this the big thing in the middle is supposed to be a rotating drum to hold nades wich can be switched out with the clip of a HMG the top barrel is nades or HMG bullets the middle barrel is LMG and the bottom most barrel is shotty the trigger for the shotty is on the grip and the bayonet should go on the side of the lmg barrel but i couldnt put it there in the drawing because then you wouldnt see the gun barrels the bipod is at a wierd angel so you coud see where it is hope my concept helps and before you say anything YES I CANT DRAW I KNOW!

P.S. feel free to modify it but please give me credit for original concept

I like the stock idea/concept thang.

idea: The pistol could be single shot from the LMG barrel, but draw from a different ammo source of course

maybe for all the primary weapons, you could have a base LMG and just add/change a part when you get a new gun. E.G. the LMG could be just a basic assault rifle of some kind, with obvious places for either the extra barrel for the HMG, the large-bore barrel for the nades or the pump for the shotty and there could be a spot underneath the weapon (about where the nade cylinder on the nade launcher) where a HMG/grenade clip could go. You could also reload the shotty in that hole since it would be empty if your gun was a shotty. the HMG/nade clip could be similar, instead of having a cylinder you can reload you could just have one that is discardable like the HMG drum.

just a random thought

<edit> The knife would obviously be a bayonnet (spelling?) </edit>
