Melee?

[-AEnubis-]

Better then the impact hammer? Only the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, or George Lucas could concieve a better melee weapon then the impact hammer. We've already determined Laser swords are out, so...

The trick would be what defensive capabilities you give the melee as far as how they work vs RW. It'd have to be nerfed (probably) compared to UC*, but you'd also want some aspect of using them (increased walking speed maybe) to make them slightly more effective on the offensive side. I also don't think anything "race specific" belongs in a stock UT game. Leave that for the console junkies.

I think a couple "balancing buf's" on the IH will make it quite suitable. Like a full charge tap for alt fire... that would be great. Gotta make the "auto-discharge" better like it was in UT, which it prolly will, along with easier rocket lock tone if they make better the model scaling.

No that wouldn`t be the UT we all are knowing, for Melee-action they should release UC2 also for PC

I´m afraid you are wrong. Epic can.

The UT we all know is dead.

I ment the usage of melee weapons that hasn`t changed since the legendary IH

As cool as the technical explanations for the atom sharp blades on some of those things are, they still don't have the intimidation of the blunt trama the IH provides.

I'd read about all those weapons before making that comment, and I still stand by it. Though much like your stance, it is an opinion.

I wouldn't say it would be a bad idea. probably as another gametype or as a mutator with good bot suport. Sure, why not. But keep that stuff far away from DM/ons/conquest/assault/tdm....etc

Now that DD and BR are out perhaps a new fighting gametype could be a good addition to the tournament, and yes, for the other gametypes could be a mutator. We could choose weapons, instagib or melee for DM and CTF.

It´s only a proposal, I hope no one get angry.

I want melee combat, but not queerness like in halo two. What I have invisioned for Melee combat is that it would involve much headcam movement, lots of shaking and bobbing and blur and shock effects, for you see it looks like S*** in games like CS where you can only swing a knife in 2 ways with no impression that your using any other part of your body to attack, which is unrealistic because if you were reaching to cut someone you would thrust at them or at least reach out. I wanna see the view actually move to make it look like you did more than just a poke. Halo two is a little better than that but its gay in the sense that if you can target someone its a one hit kill, I want slashing back and forth like in a sword fight, in first person, to make it look like you are actuallyhaving a real-life swordfight where if someone cuts your leg you drop and when someone smacks you on your jaw your view would blur and you would turn around due to the force of the hit.

I'd also like to see blocking in melee combat.

You wiil have a hard time trying to hit someone in first person, not to mention you will lose one of fighting´s appeal: models´ cool animations.

I don't know about you but when you swing something Giant like the weapons in UT2004 I think its quite easy to land a hit, despite the blur, and bob effects.

Impact hammer should be in the game, nothing else.

Amusing but not appropriate SharKTank.



Calm down Aenubis

 

[-AEnubis-]

Oh, I'm calm... just making an observation.

You know you have StarWars on the brain when you hear "Mr.Absolute" and immediately you quote Obi from EpIII...
