Killerot

Hi this is killer10203 but spiral kights im called killerot (sorry about any spelling errors within the following text)

recently ive been thinking and ive noticed that our weapon selections is REALLY small.
you may say that we've got loads like the thorn blade and the floish and the cailbur and the pulsar and the vaporizers ect.
,but think about we can only get a gun, a sword or a bomb.
what about R.P.G's and pickaxes and cross-bows and daggers and two handed weapons like the spear (though daggers are really two handed)...
what about the axe and the hammer and the machien gun and the shotgun or even MAGIC ;imagine that frowing fireballs from your hands!
WHY DONT WE HAVE THESE THINGS!

And as well as that we should have special moves like when we're holding a gun and a enemy comes too close we could kick them in the face
and they could stagger back trying to recover, or maybe when we are attacking a monster with a sword we could get in a sword lock with it ;
imagine that a Trojan pushing down on you with his massive blade and you block it and bring down to the ground then run up his blade and
stab it in the back and he dies, that would be so cool dont you agree?

Aaahahaha

Someone's been playing too much COD/Gears.

And besides, we already have a pickaxe as a weapon.

Way over

way over the top in a not so good kind of way we have shovels, long swords, hammers, cutters, tipped swords, hatchets, and axe/pick axe weapons and so many guns I wont list them all so stupid suggestion (not that we all have stupid suggestions once in a while but this is jest crazy)

I felt like showing you this.

I felt like showing you this. I don't know why we don't have these weapons already, but Tsu's thread might have inspired the devs and something could be on the making... (I really hope so)

A pickaxe would be nice. Yes

A pickaxe would be nice. Yes we have one, but i mean we need one that can alchemize up to 5 stars.
Noow we don't want SK to be like every game, but here a few weapons that i would like that could just be a re-skin of a sword or gun.

1. Pick axe

2. Mace

3. Scythe

4. Crossbow

And 5... A magic staff. I mean, we have a magic cloak. A magic staff would be a re-skin of a sword, no new fancy stuff. But regular attacks would be weak and its charge would be very powerful. So its a sword that is best when charge spammed.

Regarding Magic

It was addressed in the early months of the game,
Bottom line, no.

no classes, no magic.
we have alchemers for that.

and that complex moveset you mentioned. it seems like it would be just be too complicated for the models to be realistically animated and code for in such a way with the current collision detection and response.

WHY DONT WE HAVE THESE THINGS!
Because nobody likes you. Ok, I'm kidding.

We already have axes and hammers. The reason why two-handed weapons, or dual wielded weapons are not implemented is simply because it'd be hell to survive without a shield. 'Nuff said, and I'm summarizing what hundreds of posters before me have said.

As for daggers, we have light swords that work in its place; may I recommend the Spur or the Cutter?

We already have the autogun as a 'machinegun', so to speak.

And... well, we don't quite need RPGs since some of our guns *koff koff Pulsar koff* already explode; crossbows are... well, lets just say nobody has come up with a good idea for one so far, and shotguns don't really have a place with the Autogun and whatnot.

Bottom line is, I apologize for shooting your idea down in a flash given that you're relatively new, but you need to be a little more exposed to the game, and the forums, to figure out why some of these things aren't implemented to your liking. Countless forum denizens have posted before you to advocate these things, but at the end of the day, each one of them has encountered problems.
