I noticed a few things in the mod that I think ought to be addressed.....
First of all, that volkov guy is virtually invincible to any of the infantry weapons, including repeated headshots with the sniper rifle.... (and why does he jump 3x as high as everyone else??)
Secondly, are you guys going to do any new weapon models? It seems kind of lame to have all the sweet new characters and vehicles, but then to have the same old ramjet, sniper rifle, and pistol for everything.....
Thirdly, I don't know what you guys were thinking when you had like 1/2 the vehicles fire the repairgun..... I can tell its modified some but could you at least make it bigger and change the color?
Oh, and the hind.... Do you really think it should have a spread like that? You made it pretty much the equivalent of long range auto-shotgun.
I understand that its just an early release, and so perhaps you were already planning to deal with these issues and I just didn't hear about it. But, I just wanted to make sure that they were infact mentioned by someone so that if you had not planned on addressing them, you will now.

Quote: | That's a really, really stupid question. Well, of course we're going to do weapon models. But obviously they're not as important as the other aspects of the mod right now.
|
I dont think its a stupid question to ask. I would think that if they were going to release lots of new vehicle models, structure models, and character models in an early release, that they would also include at least one or two new weapon models .... Because they didn't (at least not yet), you kind of start to wonder.
|
Actually... It is a stupid question. Asking WHEN new weapons are going to be put in is completely different than asking WILL new weapons be put in. And Ren Alert is a TOTAL CONVERSION, which means everything that can possibly be changed will be. That's like having a friend who bought a computer case and parts, and put the computer case together, and before he got to putting the parts in, you ask him "Will you be putting those parts in this case, or just leave them out?".

Even if he does cost 2k, there some things that just don't belong. That's like saying that its ok to include an invincible guy that kills anything in one shot if he costs alot. We're not talking about a cost/quality ratio, we're talking about decent gameplay.

Volkov is not that powerful. If everyone understood his weakness's then people would be crying he's useless.
I don't see anyone complaining you can't take out a tank with an M-16. Volkov has tank armor, use anti-tank weaponry against him. You don't snipe a tank, you don't shot a tank, you fire missles and grenades at tanks.
Volkov is essentially a small tank that controls like a human. When you compare him against the other vehicles he's fairly overpriced.
