I expected people to be a bit less conservative on a forum like this.. Now, go play Doom..
What kind of _weapon_ is "metal plate" btw, you really have no idea what you're talking about, do you? "stick with poo of smell"? Either you're 10 years old or you just dont want to be taken seriously. GG. There are almost limitless options on how to make a weapon look, i'm glad you're not a game dev if color values and random str or agil are the only things you can think of.. you've played too many bad/generic RPG's me thinks..

600.000 weapons.
if you find 1 new weapon each second that means ~167 game hours.
i'll join in on the bet.
plus this whole thing sounds vaguely familiar. x types on AI models * y number of weapons * m * n types of accessories = shitload of unique enemies. hmm whats the name? bioshock?
beyond that game sounds good. at least there are people trying to push forward the fps genre.

Borderlands sounds interesting, sounds great in theory, but depends how well they pull it off.
I just signed up for the Hellgate London beta, hopefully I'll get in. Too bad it's half pay-to-play, which will probably be the good half, and pay-to-play games aren't a good thing while in college.

Well duh, its not like you're supposed to find all of them :rolleyes: It's about playing the game with weapon combos that will be unique for you. You wont be able to say to your friends "did you find that quake-like railgun in that crate?" or "did you also kill that boss with the Flak Cannon?" etc.
It's what i like about games like Oblivion or Two Worlds when i discuss it with my friends.. There's always some weapon that i or them havent found and their experiences will be a bit different from mine.

Ultra-BFG-Mega-Laser-Cannon-Of-Power would've worked as sarcasm for a weapon in a Sci-Fi game.. "metal plate", duh, that's not even sarcasm, it's just... retarded.
Sinister_Evil on 18/9/2007 at 04:09
well then it its not 600.000 weapons but 600.000 possible weapons.
anyway i do agree with yakoob. it'll just be axe of strength +2, +3 etc.
plus i dont really care for a gazillion weapons with similar capabilities.
one of the stuff i disliked about RB6 raven shield. had 20 different smgs, 30 different rifles. wtf? its not like anyone will use the FAMAS when you can use the M4 with superior handling and shooting. i know people who sleep with a copy of MGS under the pillow that didnt use the FAMAS. plus RB6 never offers drastically different environments were one would actually prefer the FAL or M26 in favor of the M16.
on the other hand i do like it when factions use weapons of different manufacturer/origin like STALKER.
off to :bored:

This is a RPG/FPS, so you wont be able to have the best weapons at your disposal from the begining. And of course there will be variations of the same weapon types, what else can there be with 600.000 weapons??? It's not like anyone would be totaly shocked by that, errm, "limitation" is it? Still it'll be cool if they pull it off, it will mean it'll contain any weapon that has been in a shooter up to date..

Oh for fuck's sake, a "metal plate" is something you can MAKE a weapon out of. Don't be so thick, I was refering to "ingredients" you can make weapons out of. Putting something like "Screws, gunpoweder, metal sheets etc." to make a revolver makes more sense than putting "shotgun, crossbow, spear" together.

If it'll be something like Hellgate London without the suck in terms of gameplay it will definitely be very entertaining. Though if it will only revolve around finding items and ignore character skills, abilities and stats (assuming there will be such things) it will be more l00t-hunting!!!!11! crap.
Either way, I'll probably like it because I'm a maniac when it comes to first person games, especially if they're rpgs.
