I'd love to see dual pistols in the game. Jango Fett had two pistols out at once, it should be in the game as well.

Jango was a BH, so maybe it can be a BH thing, but I think it would be better fit to put dual pistols in the pistoleer profession. Maybe as a Master-Pistoleer-only thing.

What do you all think? Bad idea? Good idea? Any suggestions I may have not covered here?

Thanks for reading.

and you'd see pistols nerfed yet again to allow for 70 max damage

You made the biggest mistake you could ever make with your post. You referenced a bounty hunter character from the movie witha cool idea for the game. Doing this will only bring about one thing, all BH's screaming that it was a bounty hunter doing it therefore it must be a bounty hunter skill. It's a cool idea and been mentioned many times but it is very far down the list of items in the game to deal with, though it would be very cool.

A similar thing happened on the CM forums. It was suggested that CM's get a poison dart that did direct damage as opposed to a DOT which is all that is granted in the CM tree for offensive attack. As soon as a BH got wind of theidea they took over thethread claiming that since Jango Fett used it in the movie it must be a BH skill.

Never reference a bounty hunter when suggesting anything for the game, it will be turned around and twisted that it must be a BH skill as they deserve everything. BH's have asked for skills for their professionthat already exist in about a third of all the professions in the game.

okay.... so if you can do it in KOTOR you should be able to do it in SWG.....

Even Star Wars movies dont like NGE....

Supreme Chancellor(Devs): I *am* the customers!

I oppose the NGE and support Holocron Shug and Q-3p0's dream of the way SWG should be!

"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, ?How can we do this and not make another EQ?? We didn?t want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we?ve created a system to make that happen."

Em, just make dual pistols a normal good pistol, except the animation shows two of them.

LoL! I like that one

And in KOTOR you didn't need any skills to use duel weapons. I was amazed that in the very begining of the game you could equip both party members with duel vibro swords and duel blasters. First thoughts that went trough my head was... this needs to be in SWG!

How to impliment it.... I would suggest that at some point in the Pistoleer skills a player gets a new ability for duel use weapons. When they get this new ability they would simply go into the inventory and select the weapon they want in the left hand under a new radial option. Same thing would go for right hand. Also equiping one pistol and then another would automaticly switch you to duel pistols.

I think duel pistols would be great, but they would have to be only slightly better than a single pistol. There should be disadvantages and advantages to both styles. If you duel use then you will be less acurate but hit a little harder. If you single use then you hit less hard, but more accurate.

That would be a kick @$$ idea. But I also thinkit would also becool if the game would be able to implement soem kind of dominate submissive hand thing. You know like you would be able to pick which hand is faster and stronger than the other. Like in real life a person who is right handedcan do stuff better with his right hand than with his left; and vice versa.And hell of Neo can do it why can't I!

Okay, how about just bringing in two pistols in one? What I mean is, it would be seperate from the single pistols, and when you equip the dual pistols, its basically equipping one weapon, but would look like two on the avatar.

The pistol(s) could be of a different damage, or only be for master pistoleers (since "two" pistols would make sense to be more powerful than a single, but its really ONE item to be equipped anyway.)

Lol, if I held my breath for 1/10 of the stuff I've wanted to see added, I wouldn't be alive to post this right now.
