Re: Games Discussion Thread
Twisted Christmas has arrived, just got done with a few rounds where I ran about with the Z.E.D. IT's a interesting weapon to say the least.
- First off, it's got a built-in Motion Tracker that I SWEAR was coderipped partly from the Aliens mod, but then again it could just be comedic timing on Trippy's part. It even designates various threat levels of enemies on the tracker- small yellow for smaller, weak enemies (Clots, Gorefasts and so on), orange skulls for medium grade (Husks, Sirens and so on) and then big red skulls for the big guys (Fleshpounds and Scrakes). Patty even has a symbol specifically for him on the tracker.
- Primary Fire is a slow plasma pellet that has a good rate of fire, but I don't think it has much more damage then other trash-killing weapons.
- Secondary is the big seller for the ZED, it's Stasis Beam. When a target is hit by the beam, a large spherical field starts to form around it, getting bigger as long as you can keep your target. Any attacks done to enemies in the field is doubled, allowing for some OP combinations with a buddy or three.
- Finally, as a side effect of Stasis, if you keep the target hit with it long enough, it goes to a personal stasis, which essentially slows the enemy down and lets them retain the 'take extra damage' part during this time (it's like Chrisping but without the extra fire damage).
- For balancing, it's a no-perk weapon (first one in my recollection that is) and you only got 3 spare 100-ammo clips to use at once, and the Stasis beam drains the ammo very fast.
Liking it more then the new medigun at any rate, because new medigun goes through ammo SO EFFIN FAST :S
That and the Dwarf Axe is so lawlsomely funny.
