weapon ideas spit take

[CaptainSpear]

alright i got some ideas on how to beef up the sniper and bow selections because i find them both lacking in quantity and quality 

im making these mostly vague on purpose so you can imagine your own stats

just give a yay or nay

or not, its your evening.

SNIPERS:

50cal- as the name suggests its a big gun with a big bullet and big damage. at the get go. full piercing.

explosion: shoots a bullet that explodes on impact. no piercing, just all the damage types. 

fungun: sniper that actually has a 1meter wide bullet and ragdolls enemies like its nothing, and you get multiple shots. thing is, the effect only happens after 25m. before that, its just a regular gun.

nothing but net: sniper that has 0% recoil. Zero. decent fire rate, decent mag size, suffers in other areas.

 

BOWS:

3way: fires 3 arrows for the price of one in equal 15 degree angles. multishot is going to be fun on this one.

bouncycastle: the arrow ricochets 10 times if fully charged. less damage and status each time. multishot applies only from bow to the first impact, only the original arrow bounces.

blastback: arrow fires normally, but after it fully comes to rest, a bullet is blasted back on the original path. used for sneaky backshots.

tar'n feather: crossbow that fires a exceedingly heavy grenade arrow that dowses a area in a mighty cold proc.

Best of luck convincing DE. With the exception of the Epic Store Unreal skins, DE have historically done the Mass Effect thing where their guns are actually very small caliber

sounds like Komorex. Barely any recoil, spammable fire rate, high mag, low damage.

(Just FYI, I don't think the term "spit take" means what you think it means.)

Satellite Cannon Sniper Rifle type.

Use a Sniper aiming device to aim at a target, Charge to use. Release drops a pillar of energy fired from space directly on what you aimed at.

 

Still waiting for my 50cal handcannon revolver with manual reloading.

I agree not what was wanted.

Spit take

(especially as a comic technique) an act of suddenly spitting out liquid one is drinking in response to something funny or surprising.
"the goofy script and flat characters would never fly without all the spit takes"

I'm pretty sure they really wanted spitballing.

Spitballing

To toss ideas around with no expectation of them coming to pass, to brainstorm.

Some interesting ideas for the guns, I think we need some more fun guns, some of the quirkiness can be a real hoot in game.

make snipers good - one shot normal enemies no matter the level with headshot, no mods, no nothing
make bows good - same thing but a mod, only the arrow counts tho, not if it has explosion etc
