So I've started modding the weapons and vehicle tags...

I've made some pretty fun weapons so far tho they probably won't be in a real game

Weapons:
Scorpion Battle Rifle: Single Shot Tank Canon Projectile; Zoom In "UnFrikinBelievable"; Zoom Out is the death sound

Guass Magnum: Magnum with Guauss turret projectile

Wraith Magnum: Magnum with Wraith Turret projectile; Pick Up sound "UnStoppable"; 100 rounds/reload

Vehicles:
Fast Scorpion: Scorpion that drives as fast as Warthog (haven't gotten this ingame yet.. I suspect one of my changes is throwing it off.. some debuggin needed here)

So what are your fav's? Any good ones that make sense in a real game?

I can't say I have any favorite weapon mods because cheap and overdone mods like that don't interest me in the least.

Why post in this thread then?

"I've made some pretty fun weapons so far tho they probably won't be in a real game" -Idjiki

So what i am really asking for the reading challenged is, What would be a good mod for a real game... provide examples.

The big bad ridiculous guns above are just for kicks... like I'd stock a map full of them...

I've played "The Clearing" and to be honest its no fun b/c of that snipe/battle rifle/ rocket launcher gun. Its retarded actually for game play but it was interesting to see.

edit: The weapons I listed were just my first.. it seemed like a good idea to make them extreme for testing what can be done and where..

I have some ideas for better ingame weapons. Thats more of what I'm asking about. Tweaking little things can make the game more interesting. Single shot battle rifles for example...or weaker snipers that require better accuracy and avoid lucky head shots after 2 or 3 misses.. making weapons weaker makes sense some times and sometimes it makes sense to make them stronger or to mix them up with other weapons...

Vehicles modding can add even more to the game...(i dream of a flying scorpion) Wraith projectile gauss hogs could look cool plus the projectile descends at a rapid rate compared to the other projectiles..that requires better aim... faster scorpions would make them more fun too esp if you can balance that out with the map

If anyone has ideas about this then :words:

I don't like modded weapons or vehicles. Unless the vehicle mod makes it slide on ice.

LOL, i had to share this, i was messing around on my server last night and some "must have been kids" were playing, and they said they were playing mc donalds. they'd pull up in a hog and tell the person standing behind a box they wanted a happy meal. Ofcorse i ruined their fun by killing them over and over again but i thought it was real funny.

Kids these days.

so besides re-skinning most here think that any modding is a bad idea...

I would think that some little tweaking would be thought of as a possibly good idea...

Chaos coag..nvr hrd of that. I guess it means overkill weapons and vehicles making for a game full of explosions and body counts... if that's it then pls rest assured that is not what i want at all... i was thinking more of changing little things... for instance, you can turn off sniper tracers so that you can't easily locate sniper by his bullet fire tracers.. maybe that's a bad idea too, idk, it might make sense on a particular map.

So i take it that noone has thought of doing this.. maybe b/c it's a sucky idea.. idk, but i like the idea that things like that can be done thanks to Kornman's querilla.

it all has to be balanced out in the map of course. damage effects can keep things balanced but a different effect for firing can be inserted to up the visual appeal... for instance a magnum can shoot ghost bolts but still have the damage effect of a magnum. in that case, firing the magnum provides an enhanced visual experience while still only delivering a weak magnum damage.

stuff like that... really, noone's thought of this? is it just a stupid idea altogether?

no, not "any modding" just the idea of guns shooting tank projectiles and such. that idea does suck. removing sniper contrails, hmmmm that's more interesting. i would've liked that in halo.

It would make snipers too unbalanced though.

Weaken the sniper if your going to get rid of the contrails.

don't worry, scorpion battle rifle was just for kicks...not an ingame weapon.

ya, i nvr liked the tracers that snipes fire.. and I do think the player with a sniper had bttr be damn good with it... i can't stand when a sniper shoots 3,4,5 times at me and misses only to get a lucky shot on the 6th try... One shot, One kill... that is the snipers creed

so a weaker sniper rifle w/o contrails (tracer setting) seems to be a good weapon to me...a good sniper will still kick a$$ with it.. weak snipers will just be ineffectual as they should be.

tbh, my fav weapon is the magnum and dual mags... i'd like to make it more powerful a bit and enhance its visuals also (perhaps). If I'm not mistaken, the halo mag was more powerful than the halo2 mag...
maybe, give it a battle rifle damage effect for starters.. that would just up its damage a bit.. keep it single shot... maybe even add tracers to every 3rd bullet like a battle rifle is defaulted to...maybe not...

hmmm... anyone want a scorpion mag...duals? jk

Hey Idjiki, try re-skinning a veichle or a weapon
