UT3 "Hacker" Melee Weapon Released

[hal]

Straight from Fraghouse comes a melee weapon modification that promises to bring lots more gore and fun to UT3. Hacker can be downloaded (833 KB) from BeyondUnreal FileWorks and the description and tasty screenshots can be found below.

"Designed as a reinstatement of a blade-based melee weapon for the Tournament (and replacing the Impact Hammer), the Liandri Hacker is a durable tarydium-powered mining tool that can cut through tough materials with little to no resistance, including flesh. Primary fire initialises the high-speed circular saw, whereas secondary fire engages the rubble-clearing electrical discharge, which is powerful enough to launch vehicles around and destroy them in two or three hits. The resulting [configurable] recoil will also propel the user backwards, and so can be used to "hop" across great distances."

It looks a little over the top, and big.

I've just had to reinstall windows, so I need to reinstall and patch UT3 before I can try it out

It even has headlights.

 

[UBerserker]

Damn big thing. Thought it was a new model, but at least it looks cool.

 

[Mozi]

I have not tried it yet, maybe tonight but I approve more blood and guts the better!

 

[NoData]

Remember me the Unreal4Ever HellSaw Great fun!

Sad that the port to AlienSwarm was never complete! Wramm Wrammmm!

Cant wait to try this one at my next LAN party

 

[Sk.7]

This friggin' pimps!!

Thanks FragHouse, yet another excellent weapon!

 

[Vitamin-Carrot]

Cool

 

[The_Head]

Love the gore

Could do with a new sawing sound though, and the idle animation feels off. Other than that it could have been a stock weapon in the game and I wouldn't have blinked an eyelid!

Pretty average weapon. Animation could be better including the "sawing" effect. It more looks like a rapid impact hammer right now. But anyway, great fun with the alt fire! I even managed to pull off a few head shots.

Kwel, BLOOD... BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!

Oweee... this thing rocks! Finally a simple sweet and to the point weapon mod (that not completely changes the whole weapon set).
