Nato G Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Ah ok, I think I am getting the idea better. So weapon wise we are in the 1500s where one cannot load a firearm via a port on the weapon but poor a mix of blasting powder and a round into the front of the barrel. Like what the pioneers had when America was first discovered. Only they are on large Exosuits. Except... they're not? The exo-suits are only skakdi-sized, and as far as I know, you're the only person so far whose even considered putting a normal greypowder rifle on an exo. I'm still very confused as to how you intend to reload said weapon.... Kind of weird how they can have tanks with blasting rounds, elemental cannons and machine armor suits, but their basic firearms are not up to par? Seems someone dropped the ball in the tech advancement area somewhere, lol . Their basic firearms are at the same tech level as the tanks, though.... Look at history; the first tanks started being rolled out when some nations still used muzzle-loading weaponry. Elemental cannons are pretty basic tech for Bionicle. The exos.... yeah, I haven't got much of an explanation for that one. Salvaged old-world tech, maybe?

Not Quite Dead Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 The tech level is a result of balancing and my own personal preferences. Guns that shoot fast make for stupid fights that I don't want to read. Also, muskets and tanks and all that are cool. ...but close to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowl Nightwolf Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I think the confusion there Locus, is that would something other than a normal firearm be on an exo-suit? Even if they are only the size of an exo-toa (By the way found mine today. It is missing some parts but I know where it is at now). So guess I am trying to figure out what level of tech one would have. I kind of want an exo-suit type deal for my character or the option for another. Unless someone needs an extra member for one of their existing Armors. My understanding seems flawed so I am trying to pick it apart I guess to see what does or doesn't work.

Nato G Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 So guess I am trying to figure out what level of tech one would have. No offence, but I'm seriously starting to wonder if you read any of the intro post before throwing yourself into this game. Most are designed for industrial usage or travel through rough terrain and therefor lack conventional weapons, though the strength, speed and low level Kanohi powers can make them dangerous. Exosuits are equipped with either simple grasping mechanisms or industrial tools like drills, saws, welding torches or piledrivers as hands.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 No offense taken. I can read something several times and still miss the simplest thing. Has to do with my Learning disability I think. Where sometimes I can see and understand everything. Other times not so much. SO there are no firearms on the exos? That's what you are saying.

Nato G Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Exo's don't normally have firearms, but some people have added elemental guns, heavy disk launchers, greypowder cannons and whatnot. But because those weapons have literally just been pulled off of tanks and grafted onto the exos, they require a pakari for the exo to continuing functioning.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 So that is why I kept seeing the Pakari mentioned in regards to exo-suits. Good information to have, though other than the elemental cannons, how would a pilot reload normal cannons via an exo? Unless there is another Matoran in the arm or where ever the weapon is holstered.

The UltimoScorp Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Well, in Kat's Case, she has an experimental Heavy Exo that has a sort of breech loading cannon. Due to the fact that it was designed for combat, it has an automatic loading system. However, It's one of maybe a dozen suits, most of which were destroyed after the tests were considered a failure. And it's a big hulking walker. Not fast at all. It's something akin to a medium Tank on legs. BZPRPG Profiles The Unofficial Guide to TBRPG Combat!

Nato G Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 OOC: The text Ascension and Oblitus are using to communicate would be unfamiliar to Ingrayv, right? I seem to remember Oblitus having to learn the alphabet when they first interacted. My understanding is that it looks similar enough to the Matoran alphabet that it can be figured out without too much difficulty.
