What Do You Guys Think Of Being Able To Build Your Own Weapon In Game?

[_Medo_]

Every weapon you have built and ranked to 30 allows you to use the skin and mechanics of the weapon.

You can customise the firing mechanic of it by beam, hit scan, shot gun burst etc.

Allocate points to slash, puncture , crit etc.

Stats can be allocated based on a pool of points you can freely distribute.

Higher MR = more points to use and more skins to choose from.

Basically it's a mix and match of skins and mechanics of existing guns to create something truly unique. Balance can be sought by limiting the weapon attribute point pool. Certain abilities have a higher drain on your pool. E.g. hit scan drains 10 points, energy bullets drain 7.

Soma prime with supra skin build pure damage

Sancti Tigris skinned vaykor hek crit build

Dual twin viper wraith with spectre beams.

That would make me play the game for another 1000 hours.

Great Idea ! this will make MR much more useful and would decrease the boredom in this game alot

 

Twin grakata that shoot ogris missiles

and this makes it x1000000 better ... lol

eh... *Combines Soma P with Sancti Tigris and a Hek + an Atomos and a Galatine*

If this were true I would make a gun that has a bent barrel so that when you fire you shoot yourself.

 

and then I would give it to maroo for the lol's.

 

also its ammo would be explosive rockets so you ragdoll when you die.

Lol that would be funny as hek

Imagine how far would she fly if she got blasted by Hek like this.

 

Or maybe Hek shooting Sonicor rounds, 30 at once.

[AandOE]

Orthos with Glaxion beams that fire out from it? Redeemer, Penta-style? Grakata, that gets thrown like the Glaive while shooting? XD

[Lightsmith]

I'd feel bad for DE Scott trying to balance this.

[Toppien]

Twin grakata that shoot ogris missiles

 

 

Give a moment, to parade this champion of the people.

 

make it tonkor missiles and you have my money

I'd feel bad for DE Scott trying to balance this.

It's not like he had any success balancing this game for the last... 3 years or so.

Balancing by feel might work eventually, on n+1th iteration, but I doubt that Warframe will last eternally, same for DE and peeps working there.

 

If Scott wants to achieve anything, he has to establish some balancing scheme for the majority of generic guns that work using pretty much the same principles and in worst case, balance remaining "special" weapons by feel.

 

And this mode would exist only to mess around with what the game has to offer, whatever happens in Simulacrum stays in Simulacrum.

Man, this gonna be a good topic !!!!

 

 

Without any doubts I would do a Oxium Ospreys Launcher gun

 

Or a Twin Gorgon that shoots rotating Miters that shoots for itself   :D

[AnOldAlias]

Why not just make it so the Drops that you get also tie in with the customization?
Soma Barrel, Vectis Stock, Something Reciever

Combine'em, then BAM. All you gotta do is modify the ammo it uses and the projectiles and yeh got yourself a custom weapon.

Of course I absolutely love the idea that is given. I love customization, and it'd be an absolute blast to create our own weapons in this game.

[Vaxillian]

This reminds me of Ratchet and Clank where you would start out with a pistol and could add different types of damage and fire rates and such.

[Spunt1nk]

no, if this was a post to let us COD up our weapons a little bit by adding an "Attachment Slot" so we could add things on like extended mag, reduced recoil & reload speed (other mods that don't increase damage) then yes! HELLS YES! 

but what your asking is insain and would be crazy next to impossible levels for the devs to implement.

(if they ever did add an "Attachment slot" they should add a few scope mods that actually give you scoped views when aiming down sights, i always though an ACOG scope for my braton would be awesome!

[(PSN)AllOrNothinDays]

Don't see it working, it ruins the potential of future weapons as people could make something they plan on releasing in the future. Fewer people are going to want the brand new thing if you can already make something similar to it or better and leads to even more balance issues if you can bring a weapon back to its former glory. 

[Blackout751]

As long as the weapons you rank up to 30 are accessible as skins for / can have their different parts added to your custom weapon, sure - however, there should be a marked difference of some kind between a custom weapon with a weapon skin and that weapon originally.

I would turn the Daikyu into the Dread. Sign me up!

true. poor Scott. I understand it isn't easy to balance, and he gets all the hate.....like when he jacked up my mesa

Forma twin grakatas 50 times so you can make them display a dancing gif of clem above it while firing explosive rounds so fast it looks like lasers. I'd put in enough time for this, I think.

Heh I'd love to get me a crit based drakgoon vaykor hek!

[--Q--Ascended-Seraphim]

I think with the new tenno gen skins from the steam workshop, this is even more crucial. Imagine all the nice skins on the weak weapons like the gorgon.

[Rioma]

i liked the weapon building in Dead Space 3.Where you take each part of the gun (stock, barrel) ect and put them together.

You mean I can make everything into lasers?

 

Shut up and take my upvotes I want this asap
