Hey, /v/ game developer here.You wanted a third arm like aliens in a game. Is this acceptable game mechanically?About to do exo and power armour next
Is that a real thing? It looks dumb as hell and I can't imagine it working very well.Add curved barrels too.
>>750691920Should have 4 arms so he can dual wield assault rifles
Give me 2 mech arms so I can aura farm while shooting niggas
>>750692704>has 4 arms>just goes standard akimbo instead of DOUBLE akimbo
>>750692634Here is a smell of the true game design, good.
>>750693194This guy gets it
>>750692704Her arms aren't mechanical.They are literally just fucking doll arms.She moves them via telekinesis and all her spells relate to her telekinesisThe point of it is that she is an underworld boss who "keeps her hands clean" literally but not figuratively
>>750691920This looks extremely stupid when you imagine it in the actual combat.
>>750691920>can't go prone with it>it gets dirty and needs cleaning>heavy as fuckJust use a stickNobody needs that level of stability while moving, you might as well go full sci-fi armor since you'll be under fire while using it on the move
>>750696571>>750696809Have you ever been mistaken for a man?
>>750696571Vasquez was the squad machine gunner, it makes sense for her weapon to be stabilized.
Unless it's fps and aiming is the players job guns shouldn't miss across short distances it's frustrating bullshit. No that aspect of xcom was never fun.
>>750697835At no point does OP image mention missing at short range.
>>750697613>it makes sense for her weapon to be stabilizedYeah, but not while standing upright in the open like a retard.
>>750691920Couldn't you find a more natural way to implement this?
>>750698493Well.. ..tell me. It's a passive equipment when equipped changes your movement style to that to compensate for the transfer of weight.In game design that's a good compromise. Action has cost.How would you pay the toll?
>>750691920Wouldn't the distribution of the recoil not be enough? Like if you tried to use a sniper or something to make actual use of a third arm you'd potentially break your arm still or spine? That's the only use case I can see and it still wouldn't work.
>>750691920>MechanicallyI would expect this just to reduce/eliminate recoil.>>750698359Movie guys have been looking at steadicams and going DOOOOOOOD BUT IMAGINE A GUN since they were invented.
>>750699189>>750702003Don't know we literally saw it firing full cartiages blanks so who knows honestly.Blanks show us the recoil works and then we have army trials to read to show us it works.
