Blade I know it's not an accurate name but it's a game a world of fantasy and a place where all the laws of physics can be broken, you can make a ship and air unit, or a tank a submarine, so why not make a gun thats just impossible, the genetic mutator although possible in some ways not in the way it's implemented, first of the mutation would be uncontrolable, some of the subject would die some would mutate more then others no mutation would be the same, secondly you could just choose where the mutation would take place it would have to be in a pre-set confined area, with lots of equipment around it, not just a giant rotating stick that raises and lowers. Even the idea of producing more power by putting humans in a powerplant is unlikely without taking into acount being able to retrive them alive. You're right the weapon is unfeasable but 1000 years ago if you was to say that people would sit in metal ships that fly to different places around the would and comuicate over the internet listen to music watching videos and talking through a phone line, they would say, "what's metal?" well maybe not but the words, video, phone line, ship would be unheard of. So in the future who knows so it may not be as impossible as you think.

So the Ghost Stalker of TSs (HANDHELD mind you) railgun is not too unrealistic, seeing as Railguns need Very powerful generators and powerful electromagnets. Which if were to ever be anywhere near hand held would resemble Vulcan Raven of Metal gear solids, chaingun

Now THAT was a nice gun. Pity you couldn't pick it up after you killed him though :lol:

Nice airpad and civvy building!

Nice Civ building there ArgCmdr... but where are the windows? an entire building with no windows, might get a bit dark in there...... funny if a bulb blew :lol:

If you download the file, the readme explains why it has no windows, lol
I forgot to add them while modelling, hehe. :lol:
As the readme says you can have places from where to shoot, two windows in the roof, the door and the junkyard

Arrgh, you are not getting the point at all...I don't care about the weapons concept (weapon fires and mutates target), that idea fits fine with the RA2 universe. You can't call the damn thing a rail gun though, why can't you just concede that point? I was going to drop this, but then a few people had to continue to try and argue and keep it going.
The TS concept of the "hand held" railgun is fine BTW as its based in the future and the technology could be miniturised somewhat. IT probably would end up something like vulcan ravens gun though

Just ignore him guys.

Godwin · 12-23-2002, 01:18 PM

i dont know what's gotten into you people, blade is just about the most experienced modder around here, and u people disrespect him like that? cant u just LISTEN to him instead of locking everything out of ur ears? i have no respect for u guys anymore, none

this is not an issue of being REALISTIC, it's plain IMPOSSIBLE, GET THAT!? like i said, why use a fucking railgun when u can use a DARTGUN!? and any thing, ANYTHING accelerated by EM up to 100000kps WILL go straight through your body, so ask yourself this, why do u want to call it a RAILGUN? do u even know how the fucking thing works? if u think this will make u look better, or smarter, u dont know how wrong u are...

DarkDuel · 12-23-2002, 03:14 PM

don't disrespect me, i havent said anything about him...... could respect him more from all the startments he's given

Tom2003uk · 12-23-2002, 03:58 PM

Godwin, thats the whole point. Lpark and everyone else understands his exact point. But he won't shut up about it, we get it and that, sure we know because hes posted about it about 20 times, but he keeps going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.......

BLADE, WE GET YOUR POINT, NOW GET BACK TO TOPIC.
