also i would love to see bows and arrows put into the game becuse who would wana sprint around with a bad as techno-bow.
(edit - bows would fire super-sonic projectiles and deal large amounts of direct damage but would have a penitly of slower reload and not been able to carry to many arrows)
Seriously guys where's the 'Dislike' button on this forum? |

Because it's a silly idea, if I am to be generous. This isn't Turok, it's an intergalactic war, maybe you can tell me what soldiers you see on the battlefield with bows and arrows instead of just silenced rifles? |

Quote:you might ask why i say why not, In an argument you have a positive and a negative assertion. The onus is on the person making the positive assertion to prove his argument, this is called the burden of proof. To give you a real world example imagine it's a court case, you are the prosecution (the argument is true/the accused is guilty) and I the defense (the argument is untrue/accused is not guilty). As the defense I don't have to offer up proof that proves the accused not guilty/the argument untrue because lacking a valid argument that it is true the accused is assumed innocent/the argument invalid. Quote:if you want to make a point about why it definitely shouldn't be in the game do you have a reason or is it your personal preference because if it is just your preference we are on equal ground. Incorrect. Even if it were just personal preference a techno-crossbow in a setting like New Eden is a thematic oversight that makes no sense. But if you need a reason it's because it's infinitely simpler to make a silenced weapon than it is to make a bow of any kind as powerful as a rifle. |

X7 lion wrote:ok iv been thinking about it and talked to some other dust players who liked the idea, but how about this: instead of a conventional cross bow, replace the string tension fingering mechanism with a magnetic bolt launcher, Then as well as basic ammunition have specialist ammunition - remote explosive bolt - acid bolt - tracer bolt - rope bolt for climbing - add a auto reload so you could have a clip on it, and there you have your specialist weapon made for silent killing based off a crossbow
Or we could just have a silenced rifle since a crossbow makes no sense in the setting anymore techno-slings or techno-lances or techno-ballistae. The crossbow is outmoded by guns, end of story. |

I'm no one important, but here's the news at 11: NEITHER ARE YOU and either way it's irrelevant.
Dust is not set in Star Wars or Exalted or any number of science fantasy franchises where you can handwave the idiocy of using a crossbow in the far future by saying 'lol it's kitten magic'. New Eden is a sci-fi setting where a freaking space crossbow makes as much sense as Turians running around with mass accelerator longbows or Master Chief using a laser ballista to take out a Covenant cruiser.
And your crossbow suggestion reeks CoD kiddy. |

X7 lion wrote:also i never i was important i was just telling that guy i didnt want to be egged any more
I am that guy and I'm still egging you on because instead of just asking for a module to silence your weapon fire you're essentially asking for a charged sniper rifle that has a scope viable in close-mid range combat. |
