Who else is hoping we can kill off our teammates for giggles with Voltaic Tempest?
Since Nick said we're going to be seeing a lot more water...
Yes! Death to all the clones!
[EVIL LAUGHTER INTENSIFIES]
On a more serious note, levels with water in vast quantities could lead to some more interesting level design choices and puzzles! A slippery icy surface for Freeze levels, noxious corrosive acidic water for Poison, live wires dipping into puddles for Shock, oil slick and spills for Fire, completely new status/mechanics, etc. I'm sure this has been discussed to death, but I just love imagining the possibilities.
I don't think it has, actually. But I'd agree, we need more cool puzzly elements, and the water+freeze idea would be awesome.
He obviously meant super soakers for the gunslinger update.
It's already implemented. They fixed the tile in the haven fountain that was missing.

^_^ 中国人PartyForDays~ Congrats on the Vanguard-ship again~ You missed out at the end of C42; I ended up soloing it... xD
For all you narbs, too lazy to PM/Mail. Deal with it.
Back to topic...
VT forever.
Water Guns would be an interesting concept.
It could deal Normal, have damage bonus against constructs, damage penalty against slimes. Give it some fun gameplay mechanics and I wouldn't even care that other guns could outclass it.
I'd really be wary about the water comment. I mean... Most of the time, everything Nick says could mean literally anything. Allow me to translate-
"We're also going to be adding a substantial feature that makes battles more exciting and strategic. This is a tall order and will likely be released in stages; our first step will be a fun, new addition that we believe will represent a welcome change to the game. The most explosive addition to the game yet!"
We'll be replacing the bomber's best damage option with garbage and then dumping pets into the game a year later.
"We also expect to expand guilds further in the future to bring a strategic aspect to guild play."
Your guild will be able to host its own fund raiser in the future. The proceeds will go towards whichever piece of boss related furniture purchases your guild master makes.
"Haunted Haze
Any target that dies as a result of the damage caused by hexing haze will spawn a vengeful ghost that seeks out other targets and explodes on impact."
Any target that dies as a result of the damage caused by hexing haze will spawn a relatively complacent ball of light that does next to no damage.
"The discussion thread for this topic is here."
If you don't address all of your concerns in this specific thread, the GMs will gouge your eyes out.
Now we will be seeing knights running around with speedos on in every colour under the sun. I bet they release secret rare swimming goggles and a swimming cap too..
Boats.
I really cannot explain this coherently. Just go with it.
What happens if you drop a Shivermist down in water?
---
all joking aside, I think water will be mroe of an aesthetic then a game changing mechanic. Dont expect your little guy to swim and such.
Pfff !! Who needs water ? you ?
Nope, I kinda wish that I can freeze all my teammates with my glacius charge attack/shiver mist, it will be fun :3
If I dropped an electron vortex in water will it cause a whirlpool?
great idea man.
obsidian bomb would be funny too.
VT FTW!
Where does water from water pots in FSC come from ?
hellscream, read the things that the sprite says to you in the charred court.
TL;DR: it's the sprites.
That would be hilarious! Think of all the T2 players I'll obliterate >:D
And oh man, people wearing chaos will be history.
