RVIG2 Mini-Mod, New Units on Shipped Maps

Post by Astute »

While i'm on the brink of finishing two maps, i decided to side track a bit and add my custom unit(s) to the shipped maps. Not sure how i came upon the idea, but the storm commando is so much fun to play, at least for me. However, i see that my clone assault is not as fun as the storm commando, even though he does have his flamethrower. Well, i can't decide, While he's a pretty fairly balanced unit, i am considering redoing him. Well, for those of you who have played him, you decide.

btw, you guys are welcome to post your ideas.

hmm, seems like most votes for update at the moment, but what would i update him with. Well i suppose the flamethrower needs to go, its pretty much a joke as a weapon anyway. The repeater didn't feel very solid either, probably replace it with something like a launcher pistol. Hmm, Not sure what his 4th weapon should be.

Weapons i'm currently considering
> launcher pistol
> fast firing shrapnel launcher
> shock rifle
> flash bangs
> deployable shields
> Updated repeater (more fun to use)
> New effects on the flamer (less lag and better graphics)

How About This:
A black arc/clone with white lines Image
with a shot gun like weapon that fires like 5 shot at once at about the same target but takes a while to reload plus take like the arc wrist thing and have it shoots out flame and the on bolt caster lightning (you know the clone piolets weapon) Just some Ideas :D

maybe you should replace the jet trooper with that. or maybe replace the jet trooper with the EP3 jet trooper in the concept arts special feature in the ep3 game. how about a replacement for the droid pilot as the flying battle droid from the ep3 game?

Hmm, well my unit can't fly, thats the entire reason i made the assault clone, to get rid of the jet trooper. Btw, haven't played the epp 3 game, so i don't know.

While those are cool ideas, i don't want to over/under power my unit. Right now he's pretty well balanced, but he just isnt' fun enough to play.
