RoboBarbarian Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 So we've confirmed that CIG will be building a first person component to the game during ship boarding. What types of weapons or abilities would you like to see marines who board ships have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsubakixv Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 BFG Assault rifles of course and breaching charges/shotguns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortex_Rikers Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 pistols and assoult rifles is all i would like to see, because space battles are the most important thing in that game. but i have nothing against more weapons. The idea to play fps parts are fantastic =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talinko Montaro Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 it's 1000 years in the future, I guess weapons will change quite a bit perhaps armored suits (Iron Man, yeah !), energy weapons, through walls vision, I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NO-DRAGON Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Marbles like in Aeon Flux, Guns like in The fifth Element (only the futuristic design) and maybe Shields like in CoD-MW3. That would do it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortex_Rikers Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 yeah the future setting give us a big scope to invent. some mass effect like weopons maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raisinthehouse Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I would like to see shotguns for close quarter ships. Followed by assault rifles. Dama 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoboBarbarian Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 like that idea of slaves You guys are cruel. Personally, I'd like to see this be tactical and muted, somewhat like Counterstrike Source felt like in the old days. Weapons that won't penetrate the hull like pistols and stunners. Perhaps some melee weapons too, because it'd be wicked to cut a guy down with a sword and take his bridge. Tom Sean Kelleher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Just give me something that is accurate and I will headshot the shit out of our enemies. Tolje Mimar and Clutch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboBarbarian Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 You mean like this: http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=olm7xC-gBMY On second thought, I want one of these: Clutch and Bearcat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boraxx Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 MAgnetic boots, so I can have my marines walk on the outside of the hull and shoot the pilot through the cockpit canopy Battlinard, Tolje Mimar, Clutch and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christalah Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 MAgnetic boots, so I can have my marines walk on the outside of the hull and shoot the pilot through the cockpit canopy I've been watching hard for this kind of thing, but apparently spacewalks are probably a no-go for launch.... someday mayhaps... Imagine the stealth implications. We can hide a transport ship behind an asteroid, calculate an intercept course, and launch a couple of guys off to hit the enemy. You impact on the hull and all they hear are a few odd THUMPS as your mag boots hit the deck. Then you infiltrate and stealthily kill the crew before they even get a distress call out. Too cool.

NO-DRAGON Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 @ Christalah I believe that will be the Stealthy weapon of Mass killing. Mrchafy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Afghanicus Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 The Emperor did mention heavy weapons, which denote team use IRL (Tri-pod/Bi-pod+Weapon system) I'm sure in game this will be plasma launchers or portable chain guns. Either way it means a single guy on a flight deck could pose a threat to any incoming assault squads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolje Mimar Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 naw, just board the vessel, place charges, leave.....

Timbrewolf Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Marine Weapons I would like to see for boarding ships: Shotgun, Assault Rifle, Grenade Launcher, Body Armor - Full Body with sealable Helmets for Vaccum Fighting (i.e. Projectile Based, Energy Based, Particle Based), Squad Automatic Weapon, Heavy Machine Gun (CP Guard), K-Bar Knife (always bring a knife, it never runs out of bullets or energy), bayonet, Frag Grenades, Gas Grenades, Smoke Grenades, Flash Bang (Live Captures), EMP grenades, knuckle dusters (brass knuckles) and good old combat boots for wall to wall counseling.

novastorm Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I'm personally torn between the KISS principle and going really deep with waepons, armors, etc. I'm not really interested in the boarding becoming CoD MW in space, so the amount of weapons Timbrewolf is mentioning might be a bit too much, on the other hand it might get boring quick if you only have a pistol and basic armor, which is the same the other guy has......i hope it'll be a mix between the two Timbrewolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
