Joel II X Dah Gods O Bacon 363	Posted - 2013.12.24 01:45:00 - [1] - Quote You know what would be awesome? Having an ice gun thing? Something that shoots nitrogen and freezes Calda-, err, enemies within a few shots. I'm in the process of designing one for CCP because I really want one. I made some early concept doodles today and I'll post a link to it. Anyways, the weapon I have in mind is Gallente tech. It's like a breach Rifle in terms of RoF and high damage rounds. It shoots giant snowballs that once they finish an enemy, they're encased in ice until it shatters if left alone or blown up. No injectors, I'm afraid. The assault variant loses its scope and fires small ice shards with a high spread at quick succession. Lower damage per shard, as well. Here's the Cryogen Rifle: http://imgur.com/1LYdyU2 I'll show the reload animation later and will update the drawings later on better paper and will actually ink it. It's late over here so this will do for now. Any other concepts are welcome for an ice gun and other input as well. Do it, CCP. At least tell me it's coming somehow, somewhen.

Why have a weapons that temporarily disrupts the enemy when you could use something that gets rid of them permanently. I could shoot an ice gun and freeze them then go kill them or i could shot my scrambler rifle and just kill them then and there. It doesn't freeze them. It only does so for the effects once they're dead. I was thinking of the gun actually slowing down foes, but I'll leave that to you guys to decide if it's game breaking or not.

Remove the word "thing", sound more intelligent, profit Was a bit excited for this so I wrote whatever was on my mind. Will fix right now, sir.

Again why have a gun that when you fire slows someone down when i could have a real gun that when fired kills them instead. Because it's cool! Look at footage of the Cryogun from Resistance 3. I want something similar to this.

YES! I was thinking along these lines. I was also thinking it be more of a close quarters weapon, which suits Gallenteans nicely.

Still would be interesting... You mean like the Plasma Cannon? You're right, but I would use it either way because I like unique weapons. Maybe it's because I grew up with Insomniac Games' products.

I want something similar to this. Don't wan't to be rude,but...I'll let someone else finish my obvious thought Similar. I don't want the spray concept and I've changed the gun design a bit. The only thing I kept was the barrel design because I thought it was pretty cool (pun semi-intended). If you meant something else, please say so. If you havea different/better idea, don't be afraid to post it. I'm looking for suggestions. If you want to submit some concepts for an ice gun, be my guest. I have some inconsistencies I these drawings because I did them in 5 minutes. They are by no means finished. I'll try to finish them tomorrow.

Like I said,I don't want to be rude,but don't worry,I sure someone else will be. Don't worry about it. I'm glad you posted that. In fact, I WANT people to have something better than I do. I'm a level designer, not a weapon designer lol I just want an ice gun.
