Just to state a fact I don't think every rebel in city17 will be able to find a crowbar as a weapon. So here's the idea create some more melee weapons they would all do the same damage as the crowbar and have the same attack rate but they would be different models and skins. I have some ideas for melee but here's a better idea.

CREATE YOU MELEE
this is a competition for community where people will come up with custom melee weapon ideas and models. when its over the DEVs chose the best models and ideas.

the prize.
The winners get there weapons in game.


some one asked so here's how you can inter the contest.


inter by posting CONCEPT ART or MODELS to the contest, (if it ever starts). Models will be proffered do to the fact less work would be required to get said weapon in the game.

bonus points to the first person to make a model for the riot shield !!






edit:
[below is just some suggestions for weapons for the people that can't think of any.]
hammer, sledge hammer, baseball bat, tire iron, socket wrench, monkey wrench, pipe wrench, board with nail in it, 2x4, knife, fists, lead pipe, brass pipe, broken sniper rifle, baton, etc.

100% for this Idea.

[cwook]

If this was a contest, I'd use it to learn to model

[warbrand2]

IT might be depends on how many people think its a good idea.

How many people think it's a good idea has nothing to do with it, more so how the team feels about the contest.

[warbrand2]

veiw last few posts. I think its more about the feedback at least according to Andy.

[Jgoodroad]

the team think's it's a good idea, they just want to know if the community thinks it's a good Idea.

Chainsaw, nuff said.

[warbrand2]

I don't think the rebels will be able to find a working chainsaw.

[Dancing]

two words... Baseball Bat.

The Team Fortress 2's Holy Mackerel. Time to humiliate some Combine soldiers with a fish!

This is actually a great idea, for game balance they could possibly just have the same stats as a Crowbar, but it would be quite unique and interesting to have randomized melee weapons. A Wii Remote would be quite fun to beat soldiers to death with, or a croquet bat thing.

I think we have enough yes votes.

- Butcher Knife
- Lead Pipe
- Pipe Wrench (got to love the reference)
- Stun Stick (this is just common sense now)
- Severed antlion appendage
- A 2X4 plank of wood
- A salvaged shard of metal
- broken firearm
- table leg
- A lamp
- whiffle-bat (I would scream for joy if this was added)
- The players pistol (pistol whip)
- An actual whip
- A blunt and rather bulky novel

Ok, i think that list should do

You missed something. FISTS

Oh, and by the way (btw), can we just send in concept art for this little comp? I'm sure the majority of us, including myself, can't actually model. -just a thought?

[warbrand2]

posted ways to inter the contest. keep in mind its not started so wait for the official topic for the contest to post any models or concepts.

You son of a b****! Already trying to steal my thunder and the competition hasn't even started yet
Now everyone will do the riot shield

Kidding. I do hope we get alot of entrants for the riot shield. This way it will be the very best we can offer (and not that combine-prop). Good luck guys.

Just going to repost what I posted in the other thread, to keep it all in one place:

I mean something minor that will not affect the game much like maybe melee weapon models. I don't think every rebel in city17 can find a crowbar maybe have some randomized melee weapons that are the same in damage and attack speed but different in looks. (I am getting ahead of my self again.)

Actually, I like that idea. Specially if come up with some wacky melee weapons like a tuna, an umbrella, etc..

You should start a new thread and get some feedback from others.
