Title: Dual Claymores
Post by: Noctis Lamnia on January 05, 2005, 01:41:20 am: Does this not make sense to anyone else.

?_?

Post by: Kixie on January 05, 2005, 01:54:30 am: Why not? We could in MB. :O

Post by: Noctis Lamnia on January 05, 2005, 01:56:10 am: Cause a claymore is friggin huge sword. You try swinging 2 5 feet swords at once.

?_?

Post by: Reikshallus on January 05, 2005, 02:05:02 am: Not to mention it takes more strenght to wield a Longsword than a claymore..... come to think of it.... no, it makes no sense whatsoever......

But whatever, I mean \"it\'s only a model.\"

\"On second thought lets not go to Camelot, it is a silly place.\"

Post by: Myrtl on January 05, 2005, 02:13:35 am: Well what ever happens DONT change this. I know it sounds dumb but there is logic to my maddnes. The people that bought 2 claymores would have to seel the other one. They now cant hold two so they are forced to sell. Its not fair to the people because now they have to sell. Even if its not alot they could have spent that money on somthing better.

P.S: I dont even have nor use claymores so its not like im being bias

Your telling me. Well any ways someinfo people might find useful:

Claymore:
Average blade length-4\' to 4\'5\"
Average blade width-1\" to 2\"

Longsword:
Average blade length-2\'5\" to 3\'
Average blade width-.75\" to 1\"

nope haveing to have more strength to wield the longsword makes no sense at all.

Post by: pata on January 05, 2005, 02:18:53 am: characters will be wiped so i think claymores should be considered two handed weapons ;)

Post by: Noctis Lamnia on January 05, 2005, 02:25:02 am: *looks at my character holding 2 claymores*

*looks at a Kran trying to hold a single longsword*

*blinks*

Post by: Kixie on January 05, 2005, 02:51:56 am: Like I said, it was in mb. No reason to change it. Perhaps the extra 600 tria is in the fact its a lighter material. Seriously, it doesn\'t matter people. You same people scrap about the most miniscule things that barely affect gameplay. Lay off the devs and let them work. When they have a final game out, then yell and tell them how bad of a job they are doing :rolleyes:

Post by: Robinmagus on January 05, 2005, 03:17:57 am: does version 0.3.004 mean anything to you? they\'ll fix it when they get to 0.5 at least. get off their backs.

Post by: Noctis Lamnia on January 05, 2005, 04:16:32 am: Hey, I\'m not complaining here.

Not in the least.

I just find it weird, that\'s all.

Post by: Bannin on January 05, 2005, 09:45:03 am: characters are going to be wiped? (someone said it in a reply above ) are you sure?
Title:
Post by: Asraniel on January 05, 2005, 10:27:27 am: yes, sooner or later, because of the big bugs at the beginning, people run around with 100k gold or so... be happy, will make the world a little bit better, and dont be mad, its a alpha test of a beta... its only logic that the chars will be deleted one day

True. Actually I have no idea why they added combat. It wasn\'t present in MB... no reason to change it :rolleyes: :P

Seriously, I don\'t think it\'s that hard to switch price and strength required for longsword and claymore...
And that would remove such absurd as claymore being so light, while longsword so heavy.
Claymore should cost 50% more than a longsword too...
Actually I wouldn\'t be surprised if someone made a mistake while setting the stats...

Seeing some replies in this thread, I\'m surprised that I don\'t hear \"Quit reporting bugs everyone! It\'s still alpha!\" :rolleyes:

Post by: Arzosah on January 05, 2005, 11:56:48 am: Well, I hope there\'ll be a way to migrate things from CB to the next version!

Mb is over now. You dont have to eternally say that something shall keep cause it was so in MB.

In MB no fighting was included so it was more or less unimportant if you wield two or one claymore.

Well, I have to say that wielding two claymores seems pretty wierd, even if it was made by a lighter material,
It is a huge blade and the leverage effect might be too strong to efectifely wield it.

Post by: GideoN on January 05, 2005, 04:47:57 pm: Hehe try to challenge a guy with two claymores in real time :P.. And the game must be very real not unreal like you can have three ;).

i hope you people know i was being sarcastic?? maybe... i know its just a tech demo... i was joking about what Draklar said...
Title:
Post by: Draklar on January 05, 2005, 07:03:54 pm: Well being sarcastic usually works if you have some knowledge :P

Together with CB release, PS comes into alpha stage. Some say it\'s beta, but I don\'t see it as \"almost there\" release...

Post by: Harkin on January 05, 2005, 07:08:18 pm: i has always been in alpha sort of, but its still just a tech demo which was all i was saying, a sort of pre-alpha is a better term to put it in, i dont think its actually in alpha yet, and its definately not a beta...
Title:
Post by: Arzosah on January 05, 2005, 07:47:18 pm: Bweh, pre-alpha was Atomic Blue, that sucked ;-)
Molecular Blue and Crystal Blue are okay. I\'m calling them alpha :-P
But, on topic: yep, it has to change. Having two claymores looks weird anyway!
