A few small polishes for Chaos

DemonHunter · Post by **DemonHunter** » Mon Dec 29, 2003 10:00 am

Just thought I would note 2 or 3 Small items that would nicely polish Chaos, and shouldn't be too hard.

The easy ones...
1) Change the Rocket ammo model from Red to Blue, Its kinda silly for the Chaos Rocket launcherl to be Blue while its ammo is UT2k3 default red.

2) put in the ability to turn the flash gernades OFF in a botmach. I hate those things when they have no effect on the bots but greatly affect me

The slightly harder ones..
3) Trout Melee weapon,
Maybe Make it like a secret bonus that you get with a password that is supplyed to you when you sign up for the Chaos forums

4) Add the airburst Secondary Weapon function for the Gernade launcher, I loved that idea.

thanks.

1. I've been thinking about that one as well. The problem as far as I see is that in the Chaos configuration you don't have to use Chaos weapons. So if we swapped it out for blue ammo, the rocket ammo could be blue whilst they still just have a regular red rocket launcher. I do agree though, somethihng should be sorted out. And I'm willing to bet more people play Chaos with our weapons than without.

2. Well I'm not sure as I never really use Flash nades, but they should have an effect on bots.

3. Hehe, I'd rather see a Cardboard Tube (Penny-arcade...)

1. The Blue is sexier!

2. Doesn't seem like it.

3. Penny Arcade is overrated

4. what? no comment on the Airburst mode?

thanks for replying

3. So true... it's not even that funny (webcomic addict here, there's around 30 I read regularly

) . But Cardboard Tube Samurai owns.

4. Nope ;p - Link to idea?

Airburst will be included as default ammo type in MUG.

the flash nades will effect bots, but just not in the way you would probably see a human player react (clears their enemy list and reduces their sight range among other things, i beleive). I tend to particularly like them if im getting chased by 10+ monsters in invasion as it can tend to scatter them.

no no Shadow. thats Air Blast , as in a Blast of air.
what hes talking bout is Airburst , as in Bursting in the air.
Air Burst is a AWO for the GL that causes the grenades to Fly in a straight path forward and explode at a set distance from the firing point ,the timer on the grenade is set by how long you hold the button , thus spilling their contents of fire , Poison , or Shrapnel (or small explosive pellets for the standard grenades ) in a medium spread pattern outward , thus creating a small wall of fire/poison/whatever the adaptation for the standard grenades is , that travels forward for a short distance.

EDIT : I threw in a piece of concept art

I love flashes , always have , always will , although i think there should be some visual effect that can be seen by the person who launches the Grenade. such as white spots circling around the flashed persons face.
