Physics, grenades, reloads

[oosik]

Here are a few questions. Hopefully Hamma might have some insight from his experience.

Physics

We know that there is weapon recoil. Is there also momentum transfer? In other words, if I hit someone with the heavy chainguns of a TR MAX, will that make the person bounce around a little?

Grenades

How many grenades can you carry? Can you carry a mixture of grenades or only one type at a time?

Reloads

Can you put reloads for a primary weapon in pistol, knife, or rifle inventory spaces, or only in a special "pack" space?

[Delos]

good question. i havn't heard anything really about grenades or the effects of taking hits

[Zarparchior]

I figure they won't let you give up your kife... but I could be wrong.

Even if they do 1 knife does not = same space/weight as 15 nades or 5 pounds of ammo so it wouldn't affect the game much.

[Zarparchior]

Depending on the situation, an extra grenade may be much more useful than a knife.

Here is screenshot link that gives insight into grenades and inventory;

I'm confounded.

[Zatrais]

going by the vids, nope no movement effect on beeing hit by bullets... not sure about nades

you can carry as manny nades in every form as your armors inventory has room for.

reloads, by reloads i'm assuming you mean ammo? Ammo uses the same inventory slots as grenades, medpacks, hacking tools etc..

your weapons do not use the same general inventory slots as the rest tho, weapons has designated inventory slots away from the rest. what kinda and how manny weapon slots you have depends on your armor

[Zarparchior]

Right. This is the reason that Stealth suits cannot have better pistols and knives. They don't have the weapon slots avaible for them.

Maybe, but how about if you had to open a can of beans?

It would be nice if the nades were like that of halo, where your corpse flew in a congruent direction of the blast in relation of the explosion.

[oosik]

based on that screenshot, someone with standard armor (1 pistol, 1 knife, 1 rifle) has 9 inventory slots. And whatever is in inventory counts, in a sense, as another "holder" slot so you can use it.

I just thought of this - I hope the nades aren't uber powerful against vehicles like those in '42. I hope a tank is a TANK, and can't get blown to hell by a few nades.

In the thread of heavy balistics, I sure hope that the anti tank weapons are effective against personnel also. I hate the fact in 42 where if a tank shell or bazooka round goes off right in front of someone, they don't die, they just "slide" for a hundred feet. People are supposed to fear tanks.

[Hamma]

I think everyone answered these questions well. I didnt play with nades much, but you can put nothing but nades in your inventory if you want

As for bullets - I dont think the same bullets fit a pistol as fit a supressor for example. I could be wrong tho..

Many of these little things i didnt really pay attention to hehe

[Sandtaco]

Nades should be able to take a tank down, or at least kill the pilot, rendering the tank useless.
