I've been thinking of this feature for a little while since I played X-Com: Enemy Within, and thinking back to my time as a Capsuleer on EVE. I'm talking about selecting ammo types for your weapons.
Each type would have different advantages and disadvantages based on what they do and do not do, and would take up it's own slot in the fitting (meaning you still have all your highs, lows and equipment slots for the real gear).
Basic Ammo (Blueprint) = This comes with the weapon, and does nothing special.
Low Density = +10% Range, -10% Damage S/A
High Density = -10% Range, +10% Damage S/A
EMP Rounds = +10% Shield, -10% Armour Damage, -10% Range
Tungsten Core = +10% Armour, +5% Shields, -5% Range
Depleted Uranium = +10% Shields, +5% Armour, -10% Range
Magnesium Tip = -10% Shield, +10% Armour, -5% Range
Reaper Rounds = +15% S/A, -20% Range
Just a quick list made int he middle of the night, but hopefully it'll get some (constructive) feedback on what people do and don't like, and suggestions to improve what I've got or add to it.

Exactly why I'm hoping to get feedback, so what would you suggest to change them so they aren't as "OP"?
And do you mean put the ammo in an "Equipment" slot instead of it's own? It could work, but what would be the reasoning behind putting it as an equipment slot instead of as an additional slot on its own?
Also, how would it require a Client update? It could be included in a Hotfix as easily as the adding and removing of slots that they did with Charlie.
Finally, why wait till tomorrow what you can do today? Build it, test it, get feedback on it, modify it, repeat. If it gets put into Dust now, when Legion comes out they'll already have a framework built for the feature, that they can then custom tailor it to whatever they're going to do with Legion, assuming it doesn't stay the same. |
