I liked the more angular and less protruding one myself. And just a thought, perphaps the sidearm's blade should be more serrated and pointy in spots, so it would be as verstile as a tacticle field knife, as opposed to a hatchet.

Man, the angular blade was ****ing awesome. It had a pretty cool style to it. Gunning and stabbing in the face ftw.

Matter of fact, it would look awesome on the rifle too

Like that?

GODS YES. EXACTLY LIKE THAT. I love that blade now.

I'd seriously raise the thumb hole a bit though.

Spot on.

Already working on it. I have a bad polygonal arangement around the thumb hole, so I have to redo a large structural area in order to make it higher.

Actually, if possible, have the frontward angle of the blade at the same angle as the one you have on the handgun would make it even better. And it would keep continuity.

Like that?

awesome.. now there's only one problem... where's the trigger?

oh.. and lemme guess.. the next model will be.. A SWORD WITH A BLADE MOUNTED ON IT?? oh please, oh please!

Excuse me kirby, I'm taking Ruthven's place.

"Damn! Your modelling makes me hard!"

Kirby's right about the trigger. In most games you never see it anyway, especially not in JK, where Kyle's fist is just a block. Even with JKE installed, it's still just a fancy looking block.

Even with that being true, theres no hand in the model right now. Also, the powerup model, there's no hand there either. Now granted, you're not gunna care when the bullets/lasers/plamsa/whatever starts flying and you're running at 300kph, but those small details are the difference between something average and something great, cause I am picky and I can still tell when there are triggers and when there are not. Maybe I'm just crazy

That would be my guess...

your gun could also double as a meat cleaver.

That seems to be the general idea, yes.

Personally, I preferred the curved blades, but it seems that's just me. That shot with the two together, they looked like a single gun at first, looked kinda cool. Maybe an idea for something later, eh?

You should listen to your own advice when modeling.

If this is set in the future or what not, Imagine guns would have got alot lighter and all that, so all the comments about weight are really dumb. Not to mention you would have stregth inhancing armour of somesort, with kneegaurds. So that's all good.

I like both guns, my only cirt(s) is/are that the barrel holes are to big. This is fine on a cannon if it is designed to blow huge explosion or hownow. But with a pistol it's weird. And if the pistol is designed to blow huge explosions or whatever, then it kinda removes the point of having a huge rifle to do the same thing.

Finally, I know you're being fantastic/fantasy and all that but that pistol would be hard to fit in a holster, unless the holster was huge. However you could counter this by having a magnetic pistol holster(just a magnet, you put your pistol on it and it stays there until you take it off) on the strength inhancing suit with kneegaurds.

p.s. I actually agree that a blade on that bottom of a rifle would be alot harder to hit people with than they make it look in halo, however that pistol you really do some damage. It's like having a firearm, and a bladed knuckleduster, in one package!

Oh, my bad, my bad. Cancle the comment about the pistol barrel, I confused the chamber for the actual barrel.

The irony.......

However, I like the blade on the bottem, you can charge into someone with it, and you'd have to be sorta a stupid klutz to let it hit your knee, least, whenever I'm firing and moving, I've never hit my knees with my gun. (Hunting and paintball and laser tag etc. etc.)

i really like how the gun and pistol have evolved so far kirbs.

now question:

where is the battery supposed to go on this pulse rifle (what will the reload sequence be), or is this gun supposed to have a permanent battery?

Good question. The current concept is that the thing with the 3 strips across it is a turbo-battery that has to be replaced/recharged once every 3 years or so. The rifle now has a backup/power booster in the stock.

I'd also like to reiterate what a_person said: These are considered utterly lightweight weapons. The batteries are brand spanking new technology that was designed on the black market to spite the govt.

Oh, and I mentioned this already, but the pistol is designed to have a higher rate of fire with a far less deadly projectile. The "rifle" (Which is meant to be more of a repeating cannon) is much more damaging with a somewhat lower rate of fire. We're talking a submachine gun vs a fully automatic machine pistol. Not a BIG difference, but the weapons will balance out in that the pistol can be slashed a lot faster and more proficiently than the larger one, in which you'll have a cooldown time after the slash.

Not that this is for any one particular project or anything >.> <.<
