bzarcherI don't talk in here about CoH as much as I used to, partially because I'm frequently part of the bull sessions at PVPf.
But...

I have a confession to make, i have a bad habbit of PMing statesman with whatever concept i am currently fixated on.
Anyways i PMed Statesman my idea for a Dualpistol scrapper primary, and recieved this response :-)

Hey is there any chance of a form of Gunkata for scrappers in the far flung future?
in case you havnt seen it, the gunkata concept is best illustrated in the movie equilibrium (great movie).
it would look a little like this ...
Scrapper GunKata
To me the best thing about this primary would be how unique it is in its targeting of attacks, this would be an okay primary for the novice, but frankly devestating in the hands of a master. This primary is short range low dam but with with quick fluid movements.
All cones are centered on your current target and have a 30ft range
All random targets are selected by the computer from valid targets within 30ft.
You have two guns so 4 shots would be 2 dual shots.
If you target dies mid attack, the rest of the shots against them are randomly targeted.
(*Snip*)

From: Statesman
Yes. This is what I was planning for pistols (though not your exact powers).
******************************
So, at some point in the future (Issue 4?) there will be a power pool for Gun-Fu.
Just when you thought the game couldn't get better...
You give a man a pistol and he's dangerous. You give him two pistols, and he's God.
But...

Good thing I still have some slots left on Virtue.
I haven't tried a Scrapper yet.
Wonder now if the Trenchcoat/Gunkata/Katana combo will be possible.
CAPTAIN TRENCHKATANA, HOOOOOOOOO.....!!!!

I just wish CoH could be a little more like X-Men: Legends ... but it's still an awesome game.

Doyle Tyrolson, Eisensturm, Glacial Action, or Brother Ismaril on, those are my current alts on Virtue. Depending what level you're at, just about any of them are good for something, as long as I'm on.

Date: 2004-10-26 11:20 pm (UTC)I am already sorely tempted to blow many $ on a new case just so I have a box that can handle COH. If they add a Gun Kata power set ...
