A gun that shoots through walls? (Can be like a slow l3 gun, like 1 shot every 3 secs)

[cdrom]

then that makes bases REALLY useless, thors too

[»Ceiu]

Not possible.

[Muskrat]

Umm Cer, never played merc? obviously it can be done. It'd just be a flanker's dream tho....

[»Ceiu]

With bullets? Either (a) they'd have to be moving really really fast (and thus, would cover most of the map), or ( would require a lot of custom packet generation server-side. Neither of which is a very good implementation.

 

What he wants to do is not only impossible without some hack solution, but it would completely unbalance the game and require virtually every base to be remade.

[Muskrat]

Super-fast bombs work very well, seeing as how it only works then you're quite perpendicular to the wall and rarely go through more than 1 wall, it'd be perfect if you ask me...

Ah yes, a tacnuke\thor combo. give us more great ideas!

@Muskrat:

You're !@#$%^&*uming that every client redraws at the same speed. Remember: Collision checks for bombs/walls are done on redraw, which means some people will see this bomb go through 1 wall, some may see it p!@#$%^&* none, and some may see it clear an entire base. Lag will also play a large roll here, as the more lag between the player using this weapon is and any player viewing it, the further into the base the bomb will appear.

Also they would be able to shoot really fast not near walls

[Muskrat]

Duh, d00ders, obviously I know this, and obviously I still think it isn't a bad idea... you're a bunch of nay-sayers is all you are! !@#$%^&*!!

[Dr Brain]

In a word: it'll never happen.
