New medium weapon ideas?

(1/6) > >>

-Muse- Cullen:
Its always fun to think about new weapons, and everyone's noticed there's only four medium weapons currently... so why not brainstorm for fun?


Trident Medium Harpoon Gun. Single harpoon that has a much stronger lasso effect than its light version. Longer duration, and can reel enemies in with noticeable force. Very long reload.

Lighthouse Medium Flare Gun. Lens flare effect that can obscure the vision of close-to-projectile ships, and has the same effect, albeit much larger, as its light version in smoke. Larger AoE, same damage, longer reload.

Maelstrom Medium Gattling Gun. Wind up time that increases fire rate the longer the trigger is held down. Wide spread, double barrels, larger clip, approximately the same damage per bullet, perhaps less, as the light version.

Orion Medium Rocket Launcher. Quicker fire rate than the light version, slower projectile speed, no projectile drop, large explosive radius, more damage, same clip size, longer reload time.

Basilisk Fang Medium Flamethrower. Smaller clip size, shorter range, smaller AoE, increased fire rate and damage.

Any other ideas?

N-Sunderland:
We'll be seeing the Mine Launcher in not too long (hopefully with 1.1.5 tomorrow, but let's not get too optimistic). According to what the accidental entry on the weapons table said, it does impact damage. Looking forward to seeing how that plays out.

Anyways, your ideas are interesting. I've always wanted to see a heavy gat, flamer, or harpoon. I'm pretty sure that a heavy flare gun would be disregarded completely, though. Losing a heavy gun to get some disorienting/locating ability just wouldn't be worth it at all. I like your other ideas, though. I find the wind up time on the gatling to be a particularly good idea.

If that's the case... then Muse better increase the clip, fire rate, damage, range, and reload speed of the Lighthouse.

N-Sunderland:
Make it do 300 fire damage and put a fire stack of 20, but give it a high reload time and make it hard to aim. Problem solved.

Lord Dick Tim:
I just love the Names given to these weapons!

You make them sound so badass that I can't even be partial.
