Remodel The Hek

[YourFriendlyNoggin]

If they did remodel the hek it should be a futuristic design not some present day shotgun/assault rifle design. The AA12 might be functionally awesome but visually it's dull as hell.

1) Keep the HEK design,

2) Release skin inspired by futuristic designs mentioned on the pages before.

3) Add bonus to speed

4) substract some random values

5) -> "DE, WHY U NO TAKE MY MONEEEH"

Most of the weapons / warframes look like zbrush had a seizure.

Wow, so I was gonna start a thread on this very subject.

Low and behold, there was one already up!

 

And count this as one more vote for an updated redone skin for the Hek.  I would rather a 4-barrel machinegun than quad-shotgun.  Leave that to the BL2 silliness.

it'd have to be 7 round per mag then, but the Hek is 4 rounds thus 4 barrels, while I agree something like this would be nice, I would go more towards the lines of THIS

HEK isn't a shotgun. It's a four barreled rifle. It just so happens to fire all four barrels at once and thus operate kind of like a shotgun.

I originally thought the Hek looked like this, before I bought it.

 

I thought it was 2 barrels, with that front thing acting as a foregrip.

I think it'd actually look alright light that, would lose the stupid boxy rectangle look that it sort of has at the moment.

 

Still doesn't look excellent or anything.

But from the side it definitely looks better than it actually is.

Even if you were right, too many pellets fly out for it to be 1 barrel 1 projectile. It's a shotgun.

You're a grandmaster, design council and all, get this suggestion in there somehow^^.

The hek looks like that because it is less a shotgun and more of a canon with each barrel containing one round witch explains the base clip only having 4 shots. in short it's a quad-barreled shotgun.

I really don't like how the shotguns look in this game and Hek is, in my opinion, the worst.

Interestingly noone mentioned the Boneduster from Bulletstorm, it too is a quad barrel shotgun and it looks awesome

It actually has that industrial/salvaged combo that the Grineer have.
I know copying it is out of the question but atleast take some inspiration from it.

Please replace the boar.

 

With this.

 

now.

 

AA12 = Satan on Earh

 

 

On shotgun topic, yep, we should change the Boar to this, i mean hey, it already has a giant drum which has almost no use except for being a grip
