Buff Fireworks Gun

[AThreatToYou]

I'd like it to have some use. Damage to vehicles maybe? Damage after it bounces, damage on explosion? Something. I know it's just a trivial weapon but again I'd like if it had some use.

[Hamma]

It does say it does damage on the graph have you tried shooting people with it?

[Crator]

Yeah, it does do damage. Someone in a PS2 forums thread they killed someone with it too:

[AThreatToYou]

Yeah, it does damage. But it has to be a direct hit, and it doesn't do damage after it bounces or explodes.

[NewSith]

Doesn't it exist solely to light up the night sky?

[Shogun]

so this silly thing is really implemented as a real weapon, you will be able to use whenever you want?

so now it´s really time for clown noses, purple unicorn masks and nude "camos". there is no seriousness left to ruin any more.

i don´t have a problem with funny holiday things like santa hats at christmas or pumpkin bombs at halloween, but permanent troll items are a nogo for a wargame.

welcome to teamfortressside 2

They are getting to be annoying as hell. I hope the novelty wears off sometime soon.

[Crator]

Thing is, it takes up a pistol slot.

[Dragonskin]

Everyone meet at the crown...just light up the sky with fireworks from all 3 sides in harmony with everyone.

[MrMak]

Why not just turn them into regular flare guns after the event is over?

Also after the event is over sell a statisticaly identical flaregun that doesnt turn ijto fireworks during events.


Problem solved and moar monies for SOE. Everyione is happy.

[GeoGnome]

The whole uproar over how horrible SOE is, for releasing a novelty weapon is kind of hilarious.

I'm sorry folks, but if you take your Planetside time so seriously that you can't tolerate a fireworks gun... it's time to reevaluate. I swear if SOE sent everyone puppies, there would be complaints on the forums about how some people didn't want that breed of puppy.

And the question in my mind, is how visible is it at range. That is what we need to know, it may function like a half-way decent flare gun as is. Has anyone actually checked?

[Phantomdestiny]

our outfit is in the process of asking all the squad leader to have it as a obligatory tool.

look at it this way you can use it as a real flare

marking landing zones
airstrikes
enemy sunderers
request assistance
etc....

[maradine]

Does it last long enough for any of those applications? The effect seems pretty short-lived.

[Phantomdestiny]

it is good enough if you are attentive for it

[maradine]

I'd prefer you just be able to drop squad smoke from the comms rose. Stil, having a 30 second air flare would be nice.
