Cool weapons you'd like to see in HL2 mods

[FoB_Ed]

List the cool weapons/gadgets you'd like to see in HL2 mods!!!

1. I'd love to have a katana or broadsword that's physically simulated so I can cut zombies in half :)

2. one of those shotguns from the movie "Minority Report" that fires a sonic wave thingy and blows people back 20 feet :naughty:

3. a welding torch or something that you can use to weld stuff together and create objects and traps.

4. a harpoon gun that fires huge spears and can impale people (like in painkiller) :upstare:


5. one last thing is a simple lighter than you can light things on fire. Maybe if you find cans of hair spray or other flammables you can pick them up and use them as a flamethrower :devil:

[Jadewolf5675]

Flamethrower
Sword of some type
Gluon gun (if it is not included in HL2)
A manipulator type gun that alows you to pick up NPCs or PCs and launch them. (Keyframe animations blended with ragdoll physics)
S.A.W.
Uzi

[GhostBoi]

I'd love to see the new XM-8 or whatever.

[Impulse147]

I'd like to see a nail gun , like the ones from poke 146(not sure if thats the right name), but i want to be able to stick the crowbar in the manipulator and then impale ppl with that.

[SMT]

Potato cannon.
Attack falcon.
Flying snarks.
A cloud of SARS bacteria.
A crowbar gun made out of crowbars that shoots crowbars.

[poseyjmac]

nunchucks made out of 2 crowbars

[marksmanHL2 :)]

heheh, suits your avatar!


A katana would be funny as hell!

[Majestic XII]

2. one of those shotguns from the movie "Minority Report" that fires a sonic wave thingy and blows people back 20 feet :naughty:

Heh, i had that idea for a while... would be awesome.

[Tarkus]

2. one of those shotguns from the movie "Minority Report" that fires a sonic wave thingy and blows people back 20 feet :naughty:

from what i saw, the blast of the manipulator could give quite an impulse on a buggy, why shouldnt the same thing happen with people? except that people are lighter, and the blow would be bigger for them

[joule]

I know it's not technically a weapon...but...how 'bout Bullet-Time? It makes every game so much better.

[blahblahblah]

nailgun, I know I've posted that suggestion in several other threads in this forum...

New Weapon Idea: A weapon that shoots out spinning saw blades. Cuts your opponents in half (inspiration from HL2 E3 2K4 vids).

Those two weapons would be cool.

unreal tournament.....

[Darkknighttt]

an atomic bomb launcher. and an anti- atomic bomb suti gordon wears so he wont get killed fro mthe blast.

[blahblahblah]

unreal tournament.....

what? I have 2K3 and 2K4 and I don't remember and weapons like that.

[SSJ4Vegita2002]

what? I have 2K3 and 2K4 and I don't remember and weapons like that.

The Original Unreal Tournament had a sawblade launcher. Primary fire bounced off walls and decapitated people, secondary fire was an explosive sawblade. But still, this would be a cool weapon.

[DjBourgeoisie]

I cant believe none of you suggested a chainsaw o_O

[Punzz]

A heavy weapons gun.. I.E. Similar to the SAW in Opposing force.. I love spraying monsters with it

+ I hope the stun gun can actually be used as a stun gun :) and not just a melee weapon (WALLOP)

[Jadewolf5675]

The OICW would be pretty awesome as well

[Impulse147]

The OICW would be pretty awesome as well

The OICW is already in the game.

[Dead-Inside]

Burst laser rifle --
Can fire in bursts of three 2 second beams. These beams can come in a color you choose (Instead of a set one, I myself prefer red). The beam cuts anything you aim it on in half. This technology already exists today, for cutting steel, but it's of course a larger machine not something you'd hold in your hands. This said, the laserrifle is as realistic as it could be. The burst fire (Possible Semi-Auto with delay) is for barrel/weapon overheating.

Imagine being able to cut a car in two, take a combie, slice him in three or four parts, take the moving part that's left, take the car, and make some art.

Would GI-Joe have red and Cobra have blue? :stare:

[EVIL]

A banana that you can ram up players Ar** :|

[CrazyHarij]

Atombomb and evil 60's laser-gun

[Jadewolf5675]

The OICW is already in the game.
It is? 0.o

Is it the same as the H&K MP7?

[slicktick]

i would lke to see the shock gun from minority report also, and i would also like to see one of those heavy duty slingshots, that would take hitting those birds to a new level.

[skull24]

I would like to see a Chainsaw that would be so cool. Someone should make a Texas Chainsaw Massacre MOD. :borg:

[Ames]

Ghostbusters!!!!

[Ownzed]

I'd like to see a blade that you throw and it cuts them in half and then it comes back to you(Predator 2 - moive, Turok 2 - N64). :D :flame: :naughty: :thumbs: :borg:

[disruptioN_]

Chronoscepter and that other red nuclear gun from Turok.

[Warbie]

Some really good pistols :) for John Woo style action!\

Machine guns are for amateurs \o/

[PainLord]

Melon gun. Obviously. And snowballs.

[Prince of China]

Lightsaber.



A blue one.

[Axyon]

It is? 0.o

Is it the same as the H&K MP7?

It's a different weapon to the Mp7...

[Moejoe]

Cerebral bore; Turok 2...Mmmm, i can see that thing burrowing into a combine's skull right now.

[Mr. Redundant]

Grapling gun, with realistic rope and realistic climbing.
not click, shoot click suck towards.

[Jadewolf5675]

It's a different weapon to the Mp7...
Thats what I thought, but I just haven't heard anything about the OICW being in the game, it was the only thing remotely close that I could think of

-edit-

Just checked the main page...yeah...my bad

[Reaperman]

Cerebral bore; Turok 2...Mmmm, i can see that thing burrowing into a combine's skull right now.

For those that dont know.... Cerebral bore = Coolest weapon of all time

^--- my new desktop

[Tyrsenus]

a jackhammer, a "dirty bomb" and anthrax. Also, an EMP gun (sorta like how they took the power out in ocean's eleven) It wouldn't do damage to humans, but it'd be cool to see sparks fly everywhere.

[Moejoe]

For those that dont know.... Cerebral bore = Coolest weapon of all time

I know, i loved that gun. Brawrrwrrrwrrrr (that's the sound it makes as it burrows into your brains).

I would also love to see some sorta perfect dark-like robot guy who you could control remotely and share their vision. ya know, kinda like a scout. But it would be like a gameboy you held in front of you, and watched the screen. That way if you were controlling it and an enemy saw you, you could still see a little bit over the controller to be able to react. I dunno, those remote control gadgets in FPS shooters were really cool to me.

They pulled off that effect really well in a UT mod I believe.

[kaf11]

i want to do something similar just with a remote camera. you can plant it on a wall, and look at the monitor in your hand. it would be cool to plant a remote explosive, setup a camera, sit far away and wait for someone to go past it. boom.

[Ghost Freeman]

The G36, G11, and the XM-8

[kaf11]

g36 would be cool. also, this (http://www.hkpro.com/video/MP5K_case.mov).

[Ghost Freeman]

LOL. I wonder if that's the G-Man's new weapon.

[kaf11]

i hope so
10 character limit

[oD1Nz]

I don't know if this really classifies as a single gun, but... I've love to see the entire range of weapons in Raven Shield transfered over, maybe in an entire transfer of the entire game.

[Brian Damage]

Couple of ideas here that are very similar to what I was thinking of doing in EoJ... 'specially that laser one...

A Singularity Grenade. Throw it, and it sucks every loose object in the vicinity towards it for a few seconds. Then it explodes :naughty:.

Nobody steal! 's for EoJ, that is.

[snark^]

Nobody got into the Armed and Dangerous stuff yet? Here goes:

Landshark gun: fires sharks which burrow along uder the ground to chase your enemies. When it catches up you see it rise Jaws-style to swallow them.

Topsy Turvey Grenade: Basically a huge corkscrew that you dig into the ground and then activate. Everyone in a certain radius then suffers from a reverse gravity effect, falling up into the sky. You're ok because you hold onto the corkscrew bit. When the grenades effect wears off after a few seconds they all get noticed by the law of gravity again... "Hey you! Get down from there..."


Others:

Blamethrower: from Mystery Men. Fire it at your enemies and they start blaming/then abusing/then fighting each other. Barney would love this one.

Snark mortar: fires out snarks which explode if you hit directly, but chase/bite your targets (as usual) if you miss. Probably the only weapon nobody would actually bother aiming with. Secondary fire emits a laser targetting beam which the snarks chase (pinched from UT2K4's spider-mine gun).

HK G11: anyone who's played Fallout2 or the Wasteland HL1 mod knows the G11 rules.

[Impulse147]

It is? 0.o

Is it the same as the H&K MP7

No the mp7 ain't the same, watch the bugbait video, the gun he uses in that is the OICW

also heres a link:http://www.halflife2.net/index.php?page=weapons

scroll down to rifles.

[dura]

The OICW with all of the trimmings.

[Chump]

Adding on to the Manipulator capability to conrtrol NPCs and such, I would like to see a new manipulator skin...

Your own Giant fist reach out and be able to hurl things. The shooting mechanism could be accomplished with a punch.

Other than that i want to see the entire Worms arsenal. Imagine calling in napalm strikes!

[Goobers]

Hmm... You know the Rail gun in Red Faction (I know its a crap game), but that was cool, cos you could shoot through walls... maybe something like that could be included here...

[Viperidae]

Definately a handheld junkyard-class electromagnet, that somehow has a repel effect.
Plus some kind of shockwave gun/bomb that knocks everyone in a 5 km radius down (ala LotR 1).

[CyberSh33p]

A cloud of SARS bacteria.

oh no! they'd only have a 98% chance of surviving! dear god you're evil!

[Glo-Boy]

Bow and Arrow

[outpost]

Katana, shurikens, and a chainsaw.

[Lanthanide]

I particularly like the singularity grenade idea. Could use the warping effect that the strider blast uses. Also things that were too small/too close could be sucked away and destroyed completely - the larger things are, the slower they would accelerate towards the singularity due to friction, although that should already be handled by the source engine.

I would also like to see a proper sniper rifle this time, not that stupid crossbow. And detpacks to return, they're useful, and there are other games where you think "if I had a detpack, this would be -so- much easier".

Some sort of shrapnel grenade/pipe bomb would probably be useful too - one that shot out bits of metal (not a huge number, but some), so enemies a distance away would still be hurt, if not initially hurt by the blast.

As for future-tech type of things, what about a grenade that slowed down time within a certain area? Throw it, lands, 2-3 seconds later it explodes with a wave of bright light washing outwards and enveloping everything, and time slows down and slowly speeds back up again. What would this be useful for? I guess if you caught the enemy in the shock wave, but you missed it, you could kick their asses. Note that bullets flying in their direction would be affected also, so you'd have to wait for the blast to clear (pretty quick) before you could shoot, and the slowed-down time effect would only last 2-3 seconds. So a small window of opportunity, but hopefully not too exploitative. Can already see that they've got some sort of time-altering effect in the game when the strider blasts show the guys dying in the 2004 E3 vid - unless that is just the general "you've just died so now we're going to show you what killed you" sort of thing.

[Frank]

A shockwave gun that throws everybody around...

[jonnyapps]

the pfhor staff from Marathon. THWACK.

[Frank]

[DEATH eVADER]

10 Character limit: Air Taser

[Voodoo_Chile]

A Giant foot weapon from Monty Pyton.
The Holy Hand grenade also from Monty Python
The "Ms. Wilson would you please stand up." BOOM "Ms. Wilson forgot the first rule of not being seen,not to stand up" Mod.(Bit of a long name but people must stay crouched and not be seen by an NPC behind a desk or BOOM) Also from Monthy Pyton.

The Barney Cloner:Fire a blast onto an NPC to morph them into a very low resolution clone of Barney the Security Guard.Similar to Smiths "Hand in Chest" bit from the Matrix

Of course the Snark.

[NeLi]

Purses

The origami crane of dispair...

[poseyjmac]

id like to see a shrink ray. and be able to step on little g-man

[Polykarbon]

You guys should play Rocket Crowbar =p.

Rocket Crowbar (http://www.rocketcrowbar.com/)

It has so many weapon attacks.

Take a gun from Half-Life, give it a new quirky attack...4 times. Each gun has 4 different new attacks. Some are REALLY funny. The primary Shotgun fires exploding scientists. You can quickly catch them with the "manipulator" like gun and throw them at your friends.

Great stuff.

[figge]

Baseballbat, Hammer & Nails, Nailgun (that nails people to walls)

Flamethrower

2x Crowbar

Anything Silenced :P
and Laser Sight stuff :D

[Goobers]

A bunch of loganberries and a pointed stick ;)

[DEATH eVADER]

pointed stick ;)

Don't forget Holy Water (thinking about vampire: bloodlines too much)

[Rupertvdb]

A really amazing gun that can manipulate things that are physically simulated but only under a certain weight for it to be realistic.

A SAW would as others have said...be awesome.
Flamer...old school pump action shotgun cause they look awesome. or a twin barrel
Laser sword. Jedi mod...
twin pistols,

[DarkDude]

A BFG, or something along the lines of that. I just want to see a hell of a big explosion on the Source engine.

[Goobers]

a gun that spawns a penny coin at an amazing height, and accelerates to an amazing speed as it falls and hits people on the head...

[Impulse147]

Does rocketcrowbar support steam?

[DEATH eVADER]

A Big Fat Bast*rd

"Bellies goin' to get'ya, Bellies goin' to get'ya!!"

[MindCrafter]

I want the Ultramegavaplasmaporiz0rkiller, it will look something like this:

[-kinematik-]

magical spells cast from a staff. I would love to see a Heretic-like mod for the source, anyone remember that game?

not to mention katanas/shuriken for a ninja mod...

[crabcakes66]

i always liked heretic....only played a little of it though.

[KurtCobain]

A sick stick from minority report , makes combines and NPC's throw up realisticly!
