what if there was sword that has amazing slice attacks but after u use a charged attack it would trasform into a blaster. The barrel of the gun and the blade blend in flawlessly. but some people might not want a changing weapon since they like to use charged attacks frequently, so instead u just have the lazer sword slicing normaly, but when u use a charged attack this time u start with a series of swings and then it ends with a super blast attack.
Lazer sword
this suggestions right, so i thought i'd put an idea out there
You type like a paralyzed frog on sandpaper being run over by an ATV.
This is like reading a 5 year old's essay but obsessed with Star Wars
No no no, he types like a paralyzed frog, licking sandpaper while running over chickens with a dirt bike.
This idea sucks.
You gave only the visual mechanics of the weapon. No damage-type or anything.
You gave an idea which screams: 'I suggest this becuz it wuld look awesum.'
It sounds like a wannabe Master Sword.
No.
i didn't realize when i was talking about my ideas it would seem like an idea just for show. so how about each swing of the blade deals 23 damage, the charged attack deals 34 damage per swing, and the final gun blast deals 60 damage.
this weapon is fast passed on normal swings but for the charged attack the swings are slower but stronger. the user pulls back the weapon for a large swing and the end result is more power. while attacking normally you can slice 3 times before stopping, the same with the charged attack 3 large swings.
p.s. whats with you the guys making fun of the way i type.
Is that necessary.
No.
Your ideas will always be no
You need to base an idea off of what other people want, not what you want.
You need to design your idea around the sk economy, and make sure it keeps things in balance.
Unless you start doing this, none of your ideas will be applauded.
"p.s. whats with you the guys making fun of the way i type.
Is that necessary."
In order for us to like your idea or even for developers to make it real, they have to understand it properly.
well i've tried to collaborate with others on some ideas but no one gave out any ideas they just talked about my earlier threads.
Look at severage's guild thread.
Or Kentard's equipment suggestions.
Or Doc's Everfrost Valley.
And compare it yours.
You need to set up a good idea first.
We then critsize, give tips and suggestions to improve it.
But unlike theirs, yours has no back bone. And this also is hard to comprehend....
Also, balence. Literal gun sword?
And since your other thread were [Retracted], they have gotten a bad ideo of you. So if they saw your threads, it would be:
"Oh, it's this guy again."
And bad grammar here=Underage Player normally.
As well as the obnoxious, egotistcal, immature attitiude most of them have....
That's because you're like that dumpster diver who goes into the pawn shop every week, thinking they got somthing worth money, but it's actually a 2 dollar piece of scrap metal.
You have good intentions, but you just need to do your homework first.
well im new at creating successful threads
can u blame me for trying
Yes we can.
Welcome to the internet, forgiveness and patience doesn't exist here.
You need to learn the basics more before making your own theads.
As I said before, check other threads. Compare them to yours, try and improve yours. Learn the balence of the game BEFORE making the thread.
You need to embrace and learn off from past mistakes.
Well, if you were trying, you could at least try to have GOOD GRAMMER FOR GOODNESS SAKES.
@shadownox
Grammar!!!
You fail sir...
"p.s. whats with you the guys making fun of the way i type.
Is that necessary."
Yes, because right now you sound like a 8-10 year old. Other values may differ.
Here's a suggestion for what to suggest: Stop suggesting things YOU want. Suggest things that would be GOOD FOR THE GAME, or OTHER players. It fitting your wants should be a bonus.
Otherwise I might as well go ahead and post that stupid Sniper Rifle idea I came up with. It sounds cool, I'd find it really fun, but it would suck for the game in general.
"well im new at creating successful threads
can u blame me for trying"
You're new at creating threads. period.
Yes we can blame you for trying, because you don't TRY. You just say; 'yeah this be cool ill suggest it'. You don't LEARN from your past mistakes at all.
"well i've tried to collaborate-"
Tell me you know what that word actually means and didn't just look for the biggest word in the thesaurus related to your word.
Of COURSE we're going to talk about your past threads. They SUCKED THAT BAD, and your other threads were no different. It's like saying 'Here's a potato. Here's that potato 5 mins earlier. As you can see, they are the same.'
And I have a personal dislike of you ever since you tried to claim credit for the animated Angelic wings where it wasn't due. /narrows eyes
+1 to psychodestroyer.
Yeah, i read that thread... I think you need to make a statement saying that you did not encourage the wings.
/e wants links to his previous threads.
Laser sword that turns into a gun?...
Divine Avenger.
http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/38798
That should be enough.
Reasons against this so far:
1. What?
2. No effort.
3. Can't understand.
4. Overall failure.
All I got out of that was a sword that can turn into a gun or something? I think like this
sorry for le double post. something timed out or something like that
Now, now, people, don't go verbally beating him up too harshly. We were all noobs once.
Doug, people on this forum have recently come across multiple annoying trolls, and they'll react angrily to bad grammar. Don't mind them too much, but describe your weapon well.
A sword that creates a projectile with the Charge Attack is already in the game. In fact, there's two of them- both of the Sealed Sword lines. Plus, I guess, the Winmillion, though that could use a boost. And the Brandishes. Don't have a weapon that switches from sword to gun, though... kind of reminds me of the Switch Axe from Monster Hunter Tri.
If you want to suggest a weapon, try a format like this:
-Weapon Name: (The name here. Duh.)
-Star Level: (usually 2*, 3*, 4*, or 5* depending on the item's stage, you never start an item that goes to 5* at 1*... ever)
-Damage Type: (Either pure Normal, Piercing, Elemental, Shadow, or a split damage... whatever fits the weapon)
-Appearance: (What it looks like.)
-Standard Attack Pattern: (As in, what happens when you hit the attack button X amount of times. For a sword, this is the swing combo; for a gun, this is the amount of bullets per clip and effect of each bullet; for a bomb, this is nothing at all.)
-Charge Attack: (What happens when you let loose with that charge attack- every weapon has one. List any quirks about charging, like slower movement, in this area as well.)
-Alchemy Path: (What the weapon eventually can be made into. For example, a Brandish could become a Nightblade, Fireburst, Iceburst, Shockburst, or Cautery Sword, with continuing paths for each.)
-Flavor Text: (The In-game text that would describe the item. For example, the Calibur's Flavor Text is "A standard issue sword awarded to Spiral Knights who have proven themselves in the field.")
-Other info: (Anything else about the weapon that's good to know.)
It sounds like you want to have a sword and a gun that occupy the same weapon slot. Have you explored the ability to equip two different weapons? I believe that the space bar/ mouse wheel actually provides a LESS tedious way of going between weapon types- then you don't need to even wait for a charged attack if you want to shoot something.
If your complaint is that extra weapon slots cost money to unlock... Well, yeah. That's part of how the game makes the money needed to keep running. It's inconvenient, but the recommendations to try the winmillion or avenger are good suggestions if you want an all in one. For game balance reasons, it makes sense that a dedicated single purpose gun will always shoot better than an all in one weapon- there always have to be trade offs.
This thread should have been answered by discussing existing game mechanics. Games need players to succeed, and piling abuse on someone helps neither them, nor the game. It degrades the community, and the sort of criticism above reflects as badly on the trolls as it does on the original poster.
I apologize for that, but I have a personal dislike of this particular poster, for multiple reasons I'd rather not list.
So I'm likely not to respond kindly to him unless his thread is...you get the general idea, I'd rather not put a descriptive term in there.
I just realised my first post with a hyperlink, was not in fact a hyperlink, but a word outlined in blue! IMPOSSIBLE.
But heres the link it was meant to go to: http://images.wikia.com/kidicarus/images/6/62/IcarusBlade.png
This game already have a sword that acts like a gun. Hint: It starts with "W" and ends in "N".
But your idea is.....
The veterans already expressed their opinion.
Lol@winmillion.
Seriously, who ever thought up that weapon musy have been drinking silly juice.
What?
