What are your favourite Sci-fi melee weapons?

Sonic screwdriver.... MWHAHAHAh then i could take over the world.... >.>


wow i just became a bad doctor who villian...

SWEET!

 

Alsoooo any implementation of rocket propelled weapons would be sweet! As Made popular by Battle Angel Alita. (A rocket propelled maul)

Rocket Hammer wiki, that apparently exists. ----->http://battleangel.wikia.com/wiki/Rocket_hammer

 

The Hilt from Starchaser

 

Hmmm...
Of the things suggested, i really like the sci-fi glove ideas(like zealot's blade from or better yet the dark templar energy scytches from starcraft).
What other ideas for sci-fi weapons can i think of?
Well, lets see.
There could be the tentacle-like metal claws, like the ones that some villain from spider-man had.
There could be hallucinogenic or any other kind of dangerous gasses used as a weapon. Or a weapon that shoots injections.
There could be psy-weapons that amplify the power of your mind and turn it into some kind of a weapon.
There could be the "shooting parasites" kind of bio-based weapon.
There could be magnetism based weapons.
There could be black-hole(supermass) based weapons.
There could be time-control based weapons(for example simple metal gloves that deal relatively low damage, but have the ability to slow everything around you excluding yourself for a short duration.)
And, of course - gravity based weapons(these could work in several ways - amplifying the gravity where the enemy is standing to slow him down and deal a small amount of damage over time, buff you allies jump distance/height, throw objects at enemies, pull projectiles of-course and so on. Perfect weapon for supports).

And what kind of projectiles ranged weapons could shoot excluding the basic plasma/fire/lighting/laser ones?
That would be a bit difficult, but i think: Parasites; fast-growing fungus(entangle your enemy if he stands in place or goes to a dark place, again a support weapon); super-mass particles; compressed air based weapons; jelly weapons(leave poisonous jelly traces which slow and poison anyone who steps on them).

Can't think of anything else at the moment. But my favorite weapons are Two-handed swords or glove-weapons.

 

We must have Plasma whips! I will now assault your mind with subliminal messages!

Plasma whips, plasma whips, plasma whips, plasma whips... In all seriousness though, I would love to see the addition of whips of somesort in the game.

 

I can second whip like weapons. Satisfying sci-fi weapons tend to be pretty damn cool if not odd. Mono-filament whips like from a variety of sci-fi. Whips that have mechanical or electrical effects built in. Energy whips because it is scifi is why.

The rocket hammer is one thing I thought of. Also in a Table Top RPG game called Dragon Star there was a impact assisted hammer that had a pneumatic device that charged a impactor in the head of the weapon. When you hit a target it kicked the hammer harder on impact into the target. It had recharge rate of every other round but was pretty damn cool.

 

It's been mentioned a few times.... definitely the Goa'uld staff weapons!

 

Shippo: Indeed.

Also wrist or hand mounted claws or blades.

Chain or line type weapons other then whips like flails, hooks, blades, or other objects on the end.

Bayonets, axe blades that are part of the gun (yes this was actually done), Clubs that are both club and gun. History has some interesting weapons.

And of course I forget about weaponized gauntlets. Ones that help you hit hard, shock things, have energy fields on them.

 

We need claws into the game that what we r missing, even thou I said claw blade b4 somewhere in this post, claw is most interesting weapon to use still

 

A monofilament whip, like in Johnny mnemonic. And a lot of cyberpunk stuff, like arm implanted blades (wolverine style ), cyberlimbs (I got' big hammer in hand !), ect...
Also : Hybrid weapons like swords with mounted gun, or bayonets size of a machete.
And why not spears, lots of spears, because f**k it ! Spears are cool ! With laser and elemental blades, like a spear that can be used as a flame thrower.
Multifunction objects are the future.
and why not a phone shaped weapon that give cancer to enemies when we hit them with it ? (ok, this one is really stupid)

 

The best weapon would clearly be the Telescopic Sassacrusher with the Remote Ghost Gauntlets. Huge hammer that follows you around and swings where you swing? What's not to like?

 

Toss up between the, Energy Sword from Halo and the Power Sword from 40k.

 

so a floating weapon that u can telekinesis to attack enemies pretty much that would be a range melee weapon but not different form bow and arrows.

 

I've always loved a nice sharp Scythe, or a triple bladed one like Hidan from Naruto. Imagine a weapon like that pulsating with plasma goodness!

 

Ooo, I found this searching future weapons but turns out this is a stun weapon welcome to the stunguard or body guard stun


Which I believed that this little pieces of armor can use regular fist weapon and have shock attack for stun which I clearly understand this is stun gun, but u have to get close in hand 2 hand combat which its fair call it. In meaning what I am saying just make a stun fist weapon or some sort stun weapon so we can capture creatures or NPC alive

which I found it on this website.*note I used google for research, but I am too lazy to remember bing.com* http://technabob.com/blog/2011/06/01/bodyguard-gauntlet-stun-gun/

 

You mean like a buckler from Tribes: Vengeance?


Bit big, no idea how to scale down the image >.> sorry.
It being thrown:

epic low rez pic ftw

EDIT: bit late but I forgot to mention that it reflects shots back depending in how you are holding it.

 

Attachable limb weaponry mentioned but not limited to:
- Hammers
- Blades
- General weaponry. Handcannon, oh yeah-ah!
- Tools (Drills, saws,)
- Allows other hand to be likewise or hold something else (like a shield)!

But you know, something like this might not be possible because of game mechanics or likewise, but I still think it would be cool even if this was implemented for the sake of aesthetics.

 

Definitely going to go with Gravity Hammer and Energy Sword. Also, Indiana Jone's whip (because his movies count as sci-fi!!!).

 

Thunder hammer from Warhammer 40K any day of the week.

 

The Warhammer of Zillyhoo, not scifi but cool none the less
