So I am back once again to fix the guns. Since I've been gone, there's been a lot of changes, one of them being all my previous work being reset, another is the bases, lots of stuff, and I've learn quite a lot since then so i decided to rework the original plan I had. Guns are getting rebalanced, we are going to be a skill based game again, and the upcoming updates and any that follow will stay true to that. Zone will get easier and harder, hit timers will be much lower meaning good offensive and defensive skills are a must. The melees also have been balanced out, also with lower hit timers, the auction melees will be capped at 13 dmg as opposed to 14, the confusion effect some have (such as my beloved Sigil Blade) is being removed since its too op, and all melees won't be auto swing anymore unless they are part gun (such as the backpack).

For hit timer details, the default will be 0.2, any changes will be strictly based on the gun itself, holiday guns will be at 0.3 since they shouldn't outdo a shop gun equivalent when theyre way cheaper. Chainguns will be at 0.3, 0.2 was too much for them.

Also, a lot of guns were either buffed or nerfed based on price, and some guns changed up to bring a bit of diversity, since most of our guns are from holiday shops and are pretty basic.

With that being said, if you had any concerns, suggestions, or ideas, post below.

Also to add to this, everythings been changed on dev rn, they will be ported to main really soon

Also keep in mind that we might switch around with the damages, etc shortly after we release this update to the public. So selling your now 6 damage weapon might be a regret a day later when it's back on 8


Edit: I'm talking about the weapons that still can be sold

Probably not the best time right now, but later once you have finished with balancing (well lets just say as far as you will get because new stuff will be added) will we be seeing a stats sheet? Similar to the one Tashkin made on a spreadsheet. Was really helpful to see what guns stand out for your specific needs.

edit: found tashkin's post

If you're taking away the confusion effect, compensate it with something else.

Can we have like different types of weapons? Like assault rifles, snipers, launchers etc. Most guns I see don't have that much differences.

That's something I already planned before Gunderak came along. So yeah this is a long term goal, yet it is something which needs an experienced scripter to deal with. Those scripts are linked to so many other things, soooooo there is a high chance of breaking stuff by accident.

I am, they'll have slowdown chance instead

Great plan and progression

ooouuu there are still gun changes going on lol

BLECK

hai

Do these changes come with a freshly years+ inthewaiting new tileset.Nah nvm then.

uhm... melee fixes:D

I made this :)

Thats actually really cool!

It looks really. Not fitting for zone. The glow thing is just something to give it a cool factor and there's little to no shading.sry I get really picky sometimes when it comes to gfx because everything in zone is already bad enough

the blue color is just horrible tbh and the animation make it worse its not good for the eyes use better colors or just remove the blue it ruin the gun @melon*

"It looks really"
I'm ded weeners.

I like it actually. I agree that the glow is kinda just overdone, but it'd be a nice gani for when it shoots at the least.

I like the no shading actually... but that's just me and my colorblindness. Have you seen anything i've made? no shading on those either.

(Oh how I miss having all these spaces between points)

But yea, it's not bad. Like not even decent, it's really good. It kinda reminds me of them rippers but in like an AR form.

To me I want to see good gfx on this game with proper shading and all that. Which is kinda impossible since there's barely any good gfx admins. In fact there isn't any. Except Tay she's good

what about knobu ik him and he is good he made the turkey vip

Thank you guys for the feedback I'll update it later. :)

I would have to disagree with you on the gun not fitting for zone because this gun has a similar color scheme to the Ap Ripper's Ion Pistol skin.
Edit: I can slow down the glow so you guys don't end up having a seizure.

I don't like the guns like rippers. I like bright wacky guns not dark modern guns. My kinda style guns are the ones like lr pulsar, streamer, plasma chaingun, those colorful ones. But that's my personal taste

how about we forget all this and make arbitar auction tier

I've finished fixing it
Here it is!

There's no contrast between colors. At all.

It looks solidly black. I can't click on the image so all I can do is zoom in and it still looks solidly black.

the blue is rly bad also its better without this wierd animation that no one will notice use better blue and maybe remove or add better animation

@Melon* I'm not sure if you're doing this but when I was practicing GFX, I learned that you have to look at the image zoomed out while you're making it. The size it is on these forums is the size it will be in-game. It might look better zoomed in, but you have to make it knowing that it will be zoomed out a lot in-game.

Hey why'd u remove the paragon trails they were actually pretty cool. Oh and also I wanna mention a lot of the "assault" weapons have a really medium firing rate

The hit box was messed up. And ik, im working on the rofs now, theyre bugged

Lol your right. I just realized I crushed the blacks @PigParty. Btw I'm new to gfx. I really messed up on the side views :(

I tried....

The new one looks much better!

The only way to get better is to keep practicing. You should post your GFX in the GFX subsection to get criticism from people who are extremely good at GFX.

Thanks I'll do that when I make new things :)
