He he, just reminded me of that episode of star trek TNG where Worf mentions with derision a ship locking on the Enterprise with lasers, Picard mentions that the weapons cannot even penetrate the Enterprise's navigation shields.(for those at home, these are not the "raise and lower" shields regularly mentioned, and are more designed to keep random space debris from breaking windows.) In other words, the tech of SciFi can always change. One man's mighty weapon is another's "clumsy and random".
I know what'll give the sheild Bar a little more detail. Make the bar a shield and as you get hit make the shield fade
I'd like a sci fi like capsule looking bar. Not sure why guessing at the opacity of a icon would add to defensive combat?
Whether or not a weapon can be aimed is a property of said weapon. Only newly spawned items will have that property. Something you had from before (or from a mod that doesn't implement it) will not work.
I'm not sure what you thought I was saying, but I was asking them if they believed they hadn't been implemented yet (so I could tell them they have) or if it was an issue they thought needed a patch to fix (to which I would either try to help them with their issues or simply keep that issue in mind and hope for a patch to fix it as well.)
I am not surprise because you already had talk about that but this is really nice. Specially the possibility to block those gas cloud.
If you want to see more monster/combat mechanics changes you should see the last streaming EDIT: It doesn't include the last shield changes
Cool. It looks like shields are starting to get a little more fleshed out . I do agree that there should be some more sci-fi type shields in the game. How about one that doesn't show as a shield while you're just carrying it, but when you ready it, it activates an energy field where the physical part of the shield would be ? The only possible change to the current mechanics would be to make it so the image of the shield can change between ready and non-readied state and it would be nice if there were animations of the energy field as well while it was ready.
I remember when me and a friend attacked a pirate ship and i had to hide in a corner with my shield up for 10+ minutes, spamming bandages while he ran to my aide xD
Love it! Could I make small suggestion? Have the bar vertical and beside the character (To the left preferably).
Well isn't feedback the point of showing the community? So that now you might take some suggestions on board as you more fully develop the concept?
I hope all those bars will be toggleable. I usually can't see anything because of all those UI "things".
Hi I'm Sledra, I've decided that people who roll up into news threads and post nothing but complaining about lack of updates will get their posts deleted because they add nothing! Should you have issues with this new policy please send @mollygos a message explaining how such nonsense adds to the discussion rather than starting derails. Your consideration in keeping this thread ontopic after my post without using it as a jumping off point for more crazy is greatly appreciated.
