Of course it's always nice to fantasize about things, but they can only fit so much in a game so that it wont lag on the average system.

I know but it still would be sick

Re: Weapon Ideas

they should let you pick up any item and use it as a weapon such as a wooden spoon or belt

Also another weapon like the frying pan but easier to find and a lot more of them

I know we can pick up bottles and throw them, and chairs in a bar fight. Peter showed a demonstration on that, with one of the videos.

Re: Weapon Ideas

How about a weapon that can be sort of a long bow and a sword? Like from that Kid Icarus game.

Sounds awesome!
Bar fights...

I'll buy an Xbox 360 just for Fable 2 and GH3!

Re: Weapon Ideas

Incredible idea, perhaps 5 different levels as well, lvl 1 being the weakest and 5 being the strongest.
Also the levels define the cost and power of the staff.

Well, I'd say that'd be redundant (after all, that's what Will spells are for) but perhaps Oak Staff, Ebony Staff, Master Staff, and so on. And maybe the elemental powers could come as augmentations.

Possibly, although that's what I meant by the levels.

Re: Weapon Ideas

keep in mind its 500 years in the future, I dont know how logical it would be to have staffs and stuff along with guns, but then agin a will strictly user will might permit that to be there. Also, if you augment a gun, will the augment leave a puff od shiny smoke after you fire it?

You're correct there, but perhaps if the staff was a little modernized in some form, now don't go thinking of a giant electrical stick, but perhaps a modern, varnished, carved staff.
I don't know, we'll see I guess!

These aren't modern guns, or even 18th-century guns, since they clearly don't utterly dominate swords. There isn't all that much difference between a sword and a staff except that a staff has more reach and no blade.

And I don't know how they're doing augments. I don't even remember if they are, though I'm assuming they'll keep them.

You need to remember-- guns and melee weapons overlapped quite a bit until the rate of fire and accuracy of guns caught up.

Re: Weapon Ideas

PM said in one of the newly posted videos that players who do nothing but quests and no work will be very skilled but have crap items. He then connected players who do work and have jobs with legendary weapons (exact wording escapes me). Do you think this could be interpreted that you can buy some legendary weapons?

Really? If this is so then it could be a good way to extend the storyline, E.G. You may have to work to get good items in order to advance with the storyline.
This will be interesting.

Re: Weapon Ideas

i want a magic cannon you can keep in your bag and then when you get it out its really big but when you put it away it is tiny so no one knows you have got one.

Re: Weapon Ideas

Well how 'bout having throwing knives? a nice knuckle duster would be good too. or maybe a shovel?

but what i would want to see most would be a gunblade! or a tri-nunchuk (nunchuk that functions as a staff as well like the main protagonist from Suikoden V) or even just a normal nunchuk

Unless, you can dig one up with a shovel, in the graveyard.

Re: Weapon Ideas

well i just hope the guns aren't totally historicly accutate and take forever to load and your lucky if you can get two shots off in one min.

Re: Weapon Ideas

from what i have seen, the basic rifles will be basic matchlock in design, but will have the reloading system like those old guns where you feed in a bullet and pull back the lever to load it to the chamber. It'll be about as quick as the crossbows in Fable 1 for the averagely "statsd" hero

Re: Weapon Ideas

i wish there would be revolvers but i guess that's not from the same time period though.....

Re: Weapon Ideas

I would Like to see in the game is a rifle with a katana blade at the end of it so it could be used as both katana and a gun
