Oh, finally an entire post dedicated to this. the HAR... its useless. Where the hell does all that acid come from when Im doing acidsingle2 anyways? Devs please read, we as commandos want it removed! AHHH, now an E-web. yeeees. This would be so much fun. The tactics involved..everything about it. I love it. No it would not be a PvP godlike weapon. It would be designed to use during raids..as a SUPPORT weapon. Im not going to reiterate all the ideas already mentioned in previous posts.. EXCEPT THAT ITS A GREAT IDEA!

That would be pretty awesome to have a weapon that would be fun and challenging like that.


Another idea would be to maybe, make the speed almost non-exsistant and have a constant rate of fire but make it take down your action and mind bars at a constant rate also. That way you could lay down some deadly fire power like a real mounted machine gun but you wouldn't be able to keep it up forever. (action and mind costs would simulate the barrel getting hot or something) You could have it randomly apply posture change effects on the target or make a posture changing special for the weapon. You could also put in an area effect special.


Once again the downside for a weapon like this would be that you're a stationary immobile target. That will easily die if you don't have friends.



If not this though, we at least need some kind of weapon that is fun to take our minds off our flamethrowers.

Any other thoughts are more than welcome. Maybe we should start doing an official campaigning thing for this and try and get this to replace an already useless line, that in itself isn't very Star Wars-like. Besides, someone's got to use the E-Web.


Heh, the HAR line master rank even refers to field ordinance specialist or something like, this would fall closer in line with the original plan for commandos anyways, without giving us another boring tree.

hell really it doesn't even need to be an e-web. I think all we really want is a gun to use besides a flamethrower that has some enjoyment.Just startnaming off"StarWars" weapons and lets give some ideas for devs to think about (well hopefully they will think about it). It will at least give us something constructive to talk about.

Well, here goes the list that I can think of so far for possibilities:


-E-Web (My personal favorite Idea)


-Concussion Rifle


-Fletchelette Rifle


-Heavy Repeater (Personal 2nd favorite)


-Bryar Pistol


-A variation of that cool clone trooper assault rifle thingie they had that looked kinda like the E-11


-Something that's not a Heavy Acid Rifle


-Trip Mines


-Unarmed Combat Line


-Tenloss Disrupter Rifle (Yeah, this would probably be more for riflemen, but I'm just listing ideas right now)


-The Dark Trooper Assault Cannon



I'm sure you guys can think of a few others.

Satchel charges with a remote on it. Throw them down while in PvP and wait for some poor sap to run near it or over it....."!!!!!BOOOOoooommm!!!".

/TOTALLY AGREE


An E-WEB would be awesome. AWESOME. And it would add tactics to PvP. The only problem is with PvP the lag is usually pretty bad so a brawler would come up to you and kill you easily. <sigh> The satchel charges are neat though. Or make them JUST for bases and lairs, but they destroy it in one hit. That'd be AWESOME.
