--Aegis--TropicalSnow Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 When i first heard of primary kitguns, i thought "Yeah cool i guess" I did not expect them being just primary kitguns... When we got the anomaly shard system and the primary kitguns were talked more about i remembered this image Shedu yeah but under it there were more "attachments" as it looked. So i instantly thought of these being our primary zaws. I mean can you blame me? Shedu got released but the other sentient cannons were not, they would be amaizing to customize and they would be something new. In the end the primary kitguns dont looks bad but... wasted potential 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZenDash Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Just imagine if the Shedu could've shape-shifted its form into either of the other 4 designs and thus acting as an entirely different weapon each time, instead of this arm cannon of utter disappointment that I personally feel absolute zero incentive to go and look for. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeon94 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I'd love sentient weapons to be primary custom weapons but they would be really , I mean REALLY strong. Just look at Shedu , that thing is crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trst Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Sounds like you fabricated your own expectations out of nowhere. The Shedu image was only brought up as the idea of the "Sentient arm cannon", and the sketches on the bottom look like exploration concepts to get a general idea on the shape of said weapon. However the first ever images DE shared of Kitguns included this: Which shows the weapon type being determined by the handle. There were others too that showed these off all of which were just Kitgun parts attached to a larger handle with an included body; the primary handles shown in this image.

I'm more interested with " Clip Attachments " which we don't have for kitguns yet. Wonder if they will be included with primary kitguns or they are just scrapped.

Those were combined with the Clips, which are why we have five of each clip (except the max reload/max ammo clips, for some reason). Look closely in-game and you can see those attached to each clip and they also indicate the amount of status/crit applied to it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been so long since I used Kitguns , forgot how their parts looked. Thanks for correction. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed and they only really talked about primary kit guns. We also don't have than enemy with the shendu as their arm so that art looks more just concept art on the arm cannon they wanted to put in with the corner art being them playing with different silhouettes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yakhul Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I am ok with how it is going. My only hope, is that since the kitguns are expanding to Primary weapons, we can see more variety of Chambers and Loaders too. As of right now, out of all of the loaders, people only seem to use the Splat loader. On the chambers, if we talk bout primaries, we got covered Assault Rifles (Rattleguts and Tombfinger) and beam weapons (gaze) I would argue about the Shotguns tho, since thats the Catchmoon, but the way i see it, is more like a plasma gun than a shotgun. A real shotgun would be something more along the lines of the Corinth, and i would love to see a new Chamber with that in mind. Also, explosive weapons too! and maybe a bow kitgun? would be fun to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably still make one of each again if I can be bothered, but I don't know how DE can expect us to sacrifice a weapon slot, gilding resources, multiple Forma and a fair amount of time on something that doesn't count towards MR. I guess there's people who will make them just to see what they can do, but to me, there's no major incentive to actually make one when you already own every Secondary Kitgun. it looks like they're just gonna be the exact same weapons, but in the primary slot, which I'll be honest, I'm not liking all that much if that really is the case. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltage Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) I know DE never promised anything for primary modular weapons (atleast from what I have seen/gathered), but I was really hoping for modular rifles that had the options to make Sniper Rifles, Assault Rifles, Burst Rifles, Auto-burst Rifles (like Battacor), Shotguns, Beams, etc. in its own system. The tacking on of two-handed grips to existing Kitguns is completely worthless for 3 main reasons for me: 1) Weapon modding will be weaker. Serration is worse than Hornet Strike, rifles don't have Primed critical mods, and Split Chamber is less than Barrel Diffusion. The only "upper hand" is that primary weapons can use Primed Shred. So in essense, you will be investing in a strictly worse Kitgun unless the rwo-handed grips multiply the base stats to compensate for weaker mods. 2) The less important point but still major factor is the usage of existing barrels. Firstly, there is no variety in the weapons as everyone has used Tombfinger, Catchmoon, Gaze, and Rattleguts before. Second, Riven Mods for these weapons will have horrendous dispositions to boot. 3) No Mastery is tied to them. Primary Kitguns are hopefully not the real primary modular system. It's way too lackluster and not worth investing time or resources into. Edited February 1, 2020 by Voltage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeap, Pax Charge ftw. And this is why i really hope they would not just throw kitgun in a different slot at us. I really hope it will be more than just an assault rifle with a unlimited ammo.

Because they are powerful, you get to have unlimited ammo via killing enemies with less ammo than they drop on death. And you're skipping on straight superior stuff to get double infinite ammo.

Which you rebuffed by saying its a waste because there are more powerful options. Its QoL. And I want to use it because its convinient to me. And it seems its is for others as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
