New Vehicle Weapon suggestion

Fifth Fifth Legion Autodueller Renegade Group: Members Posts: 480 Joined: Jan 3, 2010 Triferus said: Since we have mounted rams and spikes in the game, any thoughts on using a weapon slot to mount an internal Armored Plate? Basically it would use a weapon slot and add some additional armor to the side it's mounted on. Like the Rams, it would have weight and bulk. Probably would need 2-3 different sizes. It could be used as a way to add a few points of "Super Strong" armor to vehicles that otherwise have weaker armor, or a way to add more armor to the rear of a cargo vehicle. There should be a light enough version that you might even choose to put one on every side if you don't need both weapon slots on any of them. In this case it would serve as "last ditch" armor. The idea is the gang is adding this armor to the inside of the vehicle, hence why it uses bulk. Thus, these armor plates take damage after all of the regular armor is destroyed on that side. These Armor Plates could either simply increase the maximum amount of regular armor allowed on a given side (so if you normally have a maximum of 20 armor, you could then add 25, for example) or the Armor Plates could be fully independent with their own Hit Points. It would also then increase the overall maximum for the vehicle by the same amount. If the plates were made to be independent, then if the Armor Plate takes damage, it would have to be repaired or replaced like a ram would instead of like Armor. Anyway just an idea.

Victor New Cal Rangers Racer Renegade Group: Members Posts: 151 Joined: Jan 10, 2008 How about a variation on the oil jets, that drops a glue-like tar patch.... with the intent of severely slowing a fast-moving vehicle (and possibly turning it if it only slows one side/corner), or immobilizing a slow/underpowered one. Bad news for peds, obviously, but what isn't? (I'm admittedly not really a fan of dropped weapons overall, though... other than on a DR track, they're just too easily avoided, and spikes/oil generally don't have the intended/desired level of effect when they do get hit.) I'd also like to reiterate the napalm launcher concept, perhaps in the form of a flaming oil "gun". Or perhaps "White Phosphorous Smoke" weapons, which function like normal smoke, but with a chance of setting things on fire. Oh, and Molotov ####tails for peds... similar to a grenade belt, but with a flaming oil effect. 6 shots, with a disposable carrying case. [edit: Just saw the molotov bandolier last night... nice.] ......................... vet wv Posted Jan 30, 2011, 8:49 pm Last edited Jan 31, 2011, 7:38 pm by Victor

Perfect for subcompacts and muscle cars. A similar concept with other weapon types could be interesting... 30 bulk HMG with 10 shots, 30 bulk RL with 5 shots? Yeah this is a good idea.... call it a "light machinegun" or some such.  Don't call it a "mini gun" or people will get the wrong idea.  Here's an idea from me:  External Cargo Pod Takes up a hardpoint and 5 bulk (for the mounting).  Players can put up to 30 bulk of any cargo in there (except people).  The weight of the cargo is added to the vehicle weight, of course.  It will be outside the armor and therefore as vulnerable as mounted spikes or a mounted ram.... that is, very.  The tricky point will be the interface for people to load or unload the pod.  ......................... vet wv Posted Feb 3, 2011, 7:22 pm Last edited Feb 3, 2011, 7:23 pm by Zephyr

*JeeTeeOh* Loose Cannons Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 1,796 Joined: Oct 18, 2010 Fixed Position, Linked Machineguns I'm going all WWI with this one... Two MGs (or MMGs/HMGs) that only shoot straight ahead and fire simultaneously. This is oldschool tech that can be easily managed in Evan. No mess, no fuss. Just get yer car on target and pull the trigger. Front-mount only. Additional possibility: Eliminates the one-turn delay between target acquisition and firing, as there is no aiming involved. Or conventional target acquisition, for that matter. ......................... vet wv e2g marshal cont deathrceL1 sssc Posted Jun 13, 2011, 1:13 am Last edited Jun 13, 2011, 1:26 am by JeeTeeOh

Note that I am no longer advocating this, as it has been "debated to death," much like my fire extinguisher idea. This is merely a hypothetical discussion. ......................... vet wv e2g marshal cont deathrceL1 sssc Posted Jun 13, 2011, 3:32 pm Last edited Jun 13, 2011, 3:36 pm by JeeTeeOh

Mr_Sinister The Innumerable Digits Sunday Driver Merchants Faction Group: Members Posts: 63 Joined: Apr 11, 2011 Just thowin' a bunch out. If it repeat anyone's it's not intentional. Keeping with the lost-tech rigged-up post apocalyptic theme: "Bunch of hand guns duct taped together with a string attached to each of their triggers": Fires a whole bunch of small munitions at a time, isn't accurate, low bulk, low weight, can't be reloaded on the go, but can be made with a relatively low mech skill anywhere provided you have a handful of handguns, or would be insanely cheap. More variations on spikes and rams would be nice, and I love the snow plow idea to ramp your with, might be good for turtling enemies. How bout one large spike variation? chance to peirce right through armor and slice into gangers if you hit right. Someone said wheel spikes, love that idea, damage to opponants tires when sideswiped, good way to be a dirty racer... A big front mounted hammer or axe on a swing arm? A front mounted ram/spike of some kind full of chainsaws, drills, rotary saws, and jackhammers? Meants for low speed ramming, would be to fragile for high speed ramming. Would chew away at armor for every turn in contact, and be very bad for peds... Pneumatic spikes? Would be retracted to prevent damage on the approach and you would shoot them forward when you think you're gonna impact. Also like the idea someone said about mountable extra armor. Could do internal armor that would take damage after youre breached, or and external mounted shield. Both would be cool. Basically I'm trying to make the most super awesome ramcar... :-D ......................... vet wv Posted Jun 14, 2011, 12:29 am
