Weapon Customization and Camo -

[QUOTE=DouglasDanger;285647]I’m looking for the bayonet in The Basics video and I can’t find it, despite you giving the time. I see a guy using a revive syringe, and he has a Rhett. The Rhett seems to have a flashlight or something on it, but I don’t see him reload it and I don’t see a bayonet on it.

you have to wait for him to reload, but its there

Wow those security weapons look shiny and sexy…


(BiigDaddyDellta) #23

oh yeah definitley a bayonet :slight_smile:

In my bestest BRINK style here’s a screengrab

Green = Bayonet
Fuchsia = Flashlight


(RAAAAAAAAAAGE) #25

This needs to be nerfed. Temporarily blinding someone with the torch then permanantly with the bayonet? Overpowered :D. Although I’m assuming that the flashlight actually does affect someones vision when you shine it in their face?


(MatthiasK75) #26

the flashlight is part of the gun model, so i doubt it does anything at all


(Nail) #27

is it a flashlight or a laser ?


(MatthiasK75) #28

it looks like a flashlight to me


(Nail) #29

looks like a laser to me, you realize they look almost identical IRL ?

youre right, it could possibly be a laser, but since im a console gamer my opinion is worthless anyway right? either way since its a part of the gun model i doubt it actually does anything, getting a free attachment would make it a very popular gun

Haha that’s just great. Topical glow effect :slight_smile:

If it is a laser it’ll freaking work. Some douche about 5NM away shone a laser and got me in the eye last night when coming in to land. It freaking wrecked!


(DouglasDanger) #32

Thanks for that screen. I see it now, haha.


(MatthiasK75) #33

im hoping it works like a knife, with more melee damage but no knockdown, maybe a longer recovery time and probably a longer equip time (dont wanna cut yourself)


(LyndonL) #34

I think the fact that you don’t have a knockdown with a bayonette (if that’s what happens) would be a good enough counter. It means you can still be knocked down when you melee.


(Realirony) #35

Yea I would assume that having the bayonet (knife) would give your melee attacked knife damage (like having a pistol equipped) but at the sacrifice of not having a knockdown incorporated into the attack. Everything that you add to the gun in the game appears to have both positive and negative consequences, so I would assume that the knife would have the same give and take. Much like a larger magazine gives you more ammo per load but makes your character take longer to pull the gun out.

I’m excited to see what other kind of attachments there will be that perhaps we have no heard/learned about. Unless we have heard of them all. In which case I am still excited >.>

Also I doubt the side laser-flashlight has any use whatsoever. In all the vids with that gun it doesn’t point a red laser dot or a light at anyone. Its just aesthetic imo.

also, if you watch in HD the wire has been snipped that from the gun to the attachment.

i heard a long long time ago about gun slings as an attachment, i think thats be cool and maybe useful… somehow


(reedrillcad) #37

well, just on the topic, i preordered the game from ebgames and the preorder comes with the doom kit witch includes 2 gun camos and was wondering if those camos replaced the old ones and if they did that would be stupid because then we wouldnt have access to the original skins???


(LyndonL) #38

No, they’re as well as.


(reedrillcad) #39

:stroggtapir:??


(LyndonL) #40

The skins are in addition to the standard weapon skins. They do not replace them.
