Golde Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Isn't it a great idea to have bullet casings flying out of your gun as you shoot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UkyoSonoda Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Weapons don't need to eject bullet casings. Just accept that their technology has progressed to the point of having solid round ammunition propelled by a mechanism inside the gun itself eliminating the need of a shell casing that encloses a combustable propellant.

MJ12 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Caseless ammunition is your friend. Or railguns. Or plasma propulsion. Or... I don't know. Space magic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ced23Ric Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Space magic. Definately space magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UkyoSonoda Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Caseless ammunition also adds more logic in why various guns using the exact same ammo deal different amounts of damage per bullet before any mods or rank up bonuses take effect. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyclosarin Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 OP hasn't heard of caseless ammunition ;P But I'm leaning on Space Magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcanumMBD Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 My vote's on space magic. That way we can be Space Ninja Wizards. Now we just need space ghosts to kill so we can be Space Ninja Wizard Exorcists. Or better yet, Space Ninja Wizard Ghostbusters. Make it happen DE.

SkacikPLz Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Actually empty casings would be a cool additional feature for PhysX as now it's only used for particles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter96 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Caseless ammunition also adds more logic in why various guns using the exact same ammo deal different amounts of damage per bullet before any mods or rank up bonuses take effect. ;) Also it's logical that we are upgradingthe weapons and not the ammunition. Though if we could use different ammunition like exploding bullets or something that would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qeveren Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Judging by the way the weapon damage increases as the weapon levels, while still using the same ammunition, I imagine something about the gun is throwing the rounds as opposed to the rounds themselves carrying propellant. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seras Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Actually empty casings would be a cool additional feature for PhysX as now it's only used for particles. Aye, I was going to mention this. This would be a good time to show off those PhysX Effects. Some nice shell casings falling and bouncing/rolling on the ground. Of course, if everyone just wants space magic. That's fine too. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromann Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'd imagine these guns use some form of magnetic gauss system (see: Railgun). Which means they'd use no propellant, just projectiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V1RTU5 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 i think sence we are "high jacking" a ship and then running away with trying to leave no trace we were there... i think casings are a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreUr Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I guess that they are not implemented (yet) - low priority. Surely casings flying left and right would look cool... BUT - If shells/bullet casing will be implemented then new wave of complains will rise - "Where are clips and mags", "Gorgon should be belt-fed" "Where my WF keeps all those bullets", "My Warframe is not reloading, he/she is just doing something near gun and it starts shooting again" and so on... Mass Effect had some in game explanation for this, maybe when WF Codex will be implemented it will be also explained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mass Effect had some in game explanation for this, maybe when WF Codex will be implemented it will be also explained. Plenty of machineguns use regular box magazines, so not really, and also, any repeating projectile weapon feeds from a magazine. Just say the magazines are mounted internally or lengthwise (like a P90 or G11). In mass effect the guns used a Gauss style system that had a big chunk of metal in it that was chipped at for a projectile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
