Author Topic: TF2 - Weapon Idea || Sniper ~ Boomerang  (Read 4560 times)

I want the sniper to have a boomerang weapon! :D

I have come up with four variations of the Sniper's boomerang weapon:




1) Primary Weapon - Throw Boomerang at head for close to short-mid ranged headshots. (Upon miss you must wait for the boomerang to come back to you. Upon hitting an obstacle the boomerang will come back.)

2) Secondary Weapon - A powerful close to mid-short ranged Boomerang. (Upon miss you must wait for the boomerang to come back to you. Upon hitting an obstacle the boomerang will come back.)

3) Melee Weapon - A semi-powerful melee Boomerang that gives you increased speed. Gives less health.

4) Melee/Secondary Weapon - A boomerang capable of headshots ONLY WHEN the Boomerang is thrown with a fully-charged throw. Hold down attack button to charge your throw for longer distance and headshots. This weapon will NOT get headshots if the enemy is within melee distance. You cannot throw this weapon if there is anything within melee range in front of you. Right-click to melee enemies and push them back a little bit.



I like the fourth one, but I am still developing the details of all of them. I will submit my ideas to some people who might be interested in modeling this weapon when I feel I am ready.

Discuss.

And the boomerang can fall to the ground if it hits something besides a player,
and then your stuck with nothing for the next 3 seconds unless you can go pick it up.

I think that would be more fair.

Or it hits a wall and comes back to you; Because this is TF2 and technology is magic.

Kind of like the sandman ball?






Yes I did.
If only you believe with your mind!

What do you people think about pyro having smoke grenades that take second slot?
They would cover about a double doorway sized area.

Pretty nice idea. The idea of me not being able to see a Pyro in a room is rather terrifying.

It's could be used for advancing, it could be used to get away from approaching enemy's or for cover for friendly spys.

Of course you would be able to only hold ONE and it would not regenerate like the sandmans ball.

And it makes it fair because having that shotgun is a huge thing some of the time.

I would like the person who voted no to explain what he doesn't like about my idea and how it can be improved.

Thinking about the design, it should be made out of wood or something tough, with teeth spiked along the edges
