More Advanced weapons!

(1/4) > >>

Potman:
Dunno about you guys, but it really annoys me to no end that I can never, ever, find the weapon I really want - Advanced chaingun. I've never seen a single one in my adventures, and since I usually go at Finesse right after Inituition, I'd have potential, via Whizkid, to create a true weapon of armageddon. But thanks to the extremely low spawning of advanced weapons, the only time I've ever found use for Whiz is during AoMr.

The least you could do would be to remove all those other special weapons (Fastload etc.) and replace them with Advanceds. They're pretty useless now, anyway. And I don't think it still would increase their spawnings even close enough to make the entire game too easy.

(My other hope would be to get to Mortuary with my inventory full of speed and damage mods, pick up an Advanced plasma rifle, load it up with everything I've got, and start the Apocalypse. Too bad I can never seem to get that far.)

Silhar:
I agree. The only advanced weapon I've ever found was... Taaa-daah ! Advanced Double Shotty ! (crowd screams !)... when playing AoB (crowd says "Booooo !").
And, of corse, adv. BFG 9k in Mortuary and adv. RL behind The Wall. But I'll not count these, cuz they're always spawned.

Seconded !

Or... maybe make whizkid work on regular weapons ? (But, for example, make it giving only 2 slots per level ?)

tisiphone:
True enough, I have so far never found a single advance chaingun but in my limited experience I have no trouble funding other advance weapons. I have found number of advance pistol, all the variety of advance shotguns and even an advance rocket launcher *before* The Wall. Maybe it’s a bug? Has anyone ever found an advance chaingun?

Also, personally I really like the other special weapons. Not really sure why I like them though. Maybe because they provide something like a hierarchy for weapons uniqueness hence making the prospect of an advance chaingun all the more fun. Don’t know...

Perhaps there could be a reward for a special level that allows you to make one of your weapons of choice an advance weapon, like a customisation kit or something. I think that would be kinda cool.

Ability to apply 1 mod to every regular weapon was implemented in beta. Also, you can apply one more mod for each level of Whizkid.

Silhar:
Didn't know that. Thanks, anyway... another reason to wait for a new version :).
