Chaotic Dreams

Im a bit dissapointed with the MUG

the fire and ice effects look cool but Ive expected more
there should be an effect when shooting the air, similar to the shield gun one but in white
I think most players dont even know that the MUG can shoot air

and the ice deaths should be improved
I expected to see frozen opponents standing there and then you can shoot them with another weapon to shatter them
or kick them against a wall to shatter them

and when someone is frozen he should slide down hills and floors etc.
and when someone is frozen and falls down more than 2 meters for example he should shatter as well

just a few ideas

right now the only difference between fire and ice seems to be the color

The shattering idea has been kicked around for a while, unfortunately to get 2k4 to do that, it would have been more trouble than its worth(and probably would have delayed release)

I love the MUG. Right now, the only suggestion I can give is for a thrid ammo type, one that sprays poison gas and comes in a green bottle. But other than that, it's perfect. I love having a flamethrower again.

Damn straight, I love the MUG, the only thing I can think of is to make it stronger, u have to use to much ammo on one person.

I really like the MUG its a good weapon I love it when I am fighting some bots for the hill in KOTH and then another bot come in the torches us with it lol and the air things is very usefull.

This man infiltrated my brain and stole my idea. Please add this

Hmm, I wouldn't be so keen on poison. The MUG 'fits' with only fire and ice... adding a 3rd type, that we already have Nades and Arrows for would seem redundant.

we already have Fire arrows , fire mines ,Mug fire , and napalm ,

Yes, but fire is fire

In other words - I don't care, leave me to my selective preferences!

aww,why not flaming hammers,flaming swords,flaming players,flaming rippers

How about a Chaos Relic that gives all of your weapons/attacks bonus fire damage?

We wanted to add in an effect for air just ran out of time. Look for one next time.

Shattering players can not be down with out subclassing the pawn which again is a no-no for mutators. Not saying we can not work something out..still open.

Another ammo type was talked about and may make it to the mug...

And we can tweak it a bit based on the feedback and our feelings...

How about the ability to unfreeze players on your team by using the flame thrower

(And putting out fires on team mates with the freezer)

You should be able to do this. If not let us know. We had a bug where you could set your team mates on fire or freeze them. We tried a last minute fix to prevent that. But we did not have enough time to test everything. So our fix may prevent this from happening. But in Theory you SHOULD be able to do this to your team mates.

Perhaps, but it's difficult to find out, because players don't actually get 'frozen' all that often. We still seem to have them dying first, more than getting frozen and staying that way for a bit.
