Thread: Friday Wants List
Hey, its Friday and time for a want list. Not a bug fix or a gripe list, but a want list. You all have played for a while, what would you like to see a pikeman have or do? Don't wanna hear about not missing or better HAMs or whatever, that is in the past. Only to the future must you look...even if the only reality is on this thread.
Special Move: Most of our moves involve making a certain move better, ie. polearm hit1,2,3. Boring. I would like the Pikeman to do a polevault spin. A running attack, plant the pike in the ground and spin around it like a freak, kicking multiple targets in the head. Way more interesting than an area attack. Perhaps a way to combat running targets. We could run after them with a brief burst of speed, vault over them and knock them around. Just imagine the animation!
Special Weapon: For our new weapon, I would like a double ended electro blade. (Single end for the lower level pikeman, sry). Poleshaft in the middle, and on the ends, an electric current that runs between two contacts about the same size as current axe blade. Remove axe head, add electric blade. Not a vibro unit that uses electric, but an actual arc of electricity. Kinda like onAnakins Pod Racer, but smaller. Literally a hot knife through butter.
Just Because: I would like a pikeman salute. The ability to salute other players/pikemen with the pike. Instead of holding it like a bat all the time.
Anyone else fellingcreative on a Friday?
biwan: MohrJousting: When creature mounts go live, I want to be able to joust with other pikeman. It would be nice to have a special place to do this jousting where people can watch and host tounies, but that's not absolutely neccessary; I just want to joust.
Pikeman and the mounts: We had better have an increased range on mounts and be able to do more damage. Honestly, a polearm is going to do more damage since it can reach its target easier and further away....
Special Weapon: Give us some ranged weapons that we can throw. Javelins or something (You could give the 2 handed melee people large throwing axes and the 1 handed throwing weapons people little daggers, knives, etc, and you could give the TKA people some stars or something)
Harpoons: Give us the ability to throw something with at "string attached" and pull our prey to us. I know this sounds alot like mortal combat, but hey, we need to find a way to stop kiters.
Length: Give us more length on our weapons. We have the same range right now as unarmed combat
