Sounds nice.

Anyways, as for the "Radiation Shotgun", it only becomes radioactive when fired, and the radiation only affects everything in front of the user like a normal shotgun. The radiation quickly dissapates, but not before causing a lot of damage. The nuclear reaction occurs when the trigger is pulled, and thanks to t he dense metals of the gun, the radiation does not leak out of the gun and harm the user. If course, it probably wouldn't harm the user anyway, due to them wearing RIG suits, or at least the Engineering-class suits would protect against radiation.


As for the laser, it should be fine for however long you hold it. After all, you will run out of ammo long before it has a chance of overheating. I would say that a continuous 8 second stream would burn through the entire "clip", forcing you to reload. It's kind of like a Flamethrower in that regard. You can increase its capacity for extra ammo, but firing the weapon for so long is bad for your ammo consumption. I would say that it's a higher tier than the Flamethrower in terms of damage, but nowhere near as powerful as the Contact Beam. It's like the sniper version of the Flamethrower. Hmm... Maybe it will use gas as its ammo, kind of like the gas-based lasers of today. In the end, it doesn't need overheating as a balance, it's ammo consumption is its balancing factor, much like the Flamethrower.

Also, how should we treat inventories? How will we keep track of them?

[Kristia]

that is a good question

I suggest taking what each person can take to be reasonable with what they could carry

[WriggleRid3r]

I was thinking more of having a weight system, like how every inventory should be :^)

[Kristia]

exactly Wriggle

@Kristia and Wriggle

I was simply thinking of ripping Dead Space's inventory system. We would each have a maximum of 25 slots for ammo, health, and supllies, then we could either follow DS 1&2's 4 weapon slots, or DS3's 2 hybrid weapons. Not unless we allow a person to carry either 4 DS1&2 style weapons, 2 DS3 style weapons, or 1 DS3 style weapon and 2 DS1&2 style weapons.

Back to the slots, I think you first start out with 5 or 10 slots, right? I think it might be 10...

What do you guys think about the DS game inventory system?

[Kristia]

I´m ok with that as long as it is humanly possible to carry such items

[S121]

@Kristia

Of course, of course. I'm thinking that the slots would only work for med packs, stasis recharge modules, air canisters, ammo, scematics, and scrap/weapon parts. I don't expect someone to carry 500 pounds of equipment in their pockets. It's strictly Dead Space rules for me.

Oh, and a separate slot for DS nodes. ;p

Also, I'm already on chapter 11/12 on Dead Space. XD

[SUSTIC]

Guys I'm beginning to feel a lot better personally, feeling less stressed. I think I am capable of properly RPing again.

Also VERY quick, and somewhat important question (well important to me, and S1) but... does anyone remember my old RP Infinite Project?

[Zekai]

Nope, I heard the name but that's it.

Fixed, try sending a message now.

@Sus

Done.

I don't expect someone to carry 500 pounds of equipment in their pockets.

Everyone knows that's Doomguy's job, which he then runs at mach speeds with it.

Also, on an unrelated note, working on some more art. Madness Combat related this time. Decided to use a very different style. Pen, more dark colors. It's really coming out nicely.

[wonderweiss]

The infinity project... Why does that sound familiar?

[WriggleRid3r]

I dug into it. It's an RP made by Sustic that's based on the future involving superhumans and half-breeds.
