BACKGROUND: modern/near-future middle-eastern battlefield with total war and occupation. Opend-ended design. Military FPS. CRITERIA: Fun of use and their own unique interaction with the gameplay(their touch) ***doesnt matter that their are not realistic since they are treated as easter eggs*** Here are a few: +MICROWAVE GUN Effective anti-infantry weapon, the only visual cue you see when firing the weapon is a heat blur effect in the direction its firing. It can set fire to some objects and melt others (Humans included). prepare to get chewed out by the human rights organizations. +PERSONAL ARTILLERY PIECE Essentially a back-pack 85mm cannon (not possible but tell me it is not fun). Effective against tanks and buildings. You could say a huricane passed during the night and no one would tell the diference, thats how destructive it is. +CLUSTER ROCKET (SMAW AMMO) Gives the SMAW(reusable rocket launcher) a shotgun-like firing capability.It could ruin anyones day. +MINI-MINUTE MAN Single shot artillery rocket. Just deploy it, fire it and control it. With the help of a camera view you'll see the white of their eyes. +ELECTRIC BATON(MELEE) Who tought the miracle of electic energy could be this fun? Use it on conquered people to show them whose boss(by treating them like cattle). Its a less-than-lethal weapon so it keeps Human Rights activists quite but ask the target if its any less-scary, who will pass out only to wake up a little later in a pool of his own pee...Oh its also used to restart the engines of humvees and bypass electric locks(but wheres the fun in that). +GRAVITY GUN The US Military finds out the joys of the signature weapon of Half Life 2(this means a great physics model yay!---throw toilets at jihadis double yay!) +PLASMA RIFLE It can fire full auto and programmable explosive shots.The far far away successor of the OICW(but this one works). +ICE GUN An offensive fire extinguisher-on steroids(horse ste..no better make that elephant steroids). Freezes anything on the spot even rockets (guess why its a favorite with the GIs?) +FIRE RAIN BOMB (SMAW AMMO) Israeli-made, loved by everyone(except Egyptians). Nicknamed "moses" (ask the Egyptians). Just fire it to the sky above your target and it will explode sending fireballs raining down on the enemy. Scares the shit out of Egyptians. +VORTEX GUN Shoot on the feet of your enemy and see them fly! You can also use it to make super jumps, just shoot it on your feet and see yourself fly! (Only effective against infantry) +TOXIC GUN Iraqi-made, hated by everyone(except Saddam). Like the weapon carried by the desolator units in C&C:Red Alert 2. It shoots a high-pressure squirt of toxic waste that instantly turns every living thing to a puddle of green goo. It can also contaminate the ground to deny movement to hostiles. Saddam Hussein's favorite weapon after the oil gun(shoot it at US high-command and instantly become rich!) feel free to add your ideas for weapons (or easter eggs).

Nice ideas!

btw: what do capitalists have to do with this? :P

nickname for the US. it was this or the great satan :P

any suggestions? getting kinda lonely in here...

I've *never* laughed this hard just reading a description before. Alot of these weapons would go well in a co-op fps. Especially the ice gun. I don't think I've seen a real ice weapon outside of metroid...strange. I can just imagine firing a jet of freezing mist that stops bullets midair.

I suppose it's hard to suggest much without a little more direction though. What kind of direction are you trying to take?

Remote Control Bubblegum Bomb-
Launches a remote control bomb inside a giant bubblegum bubble. The player can then control the bubble so it rolls near the enemy and explodes, covering everyone in a super sticky mess.
The Bubble looks and acts much like Rover from The Prisoner except it's bright pink. If it runs into anyone before it explodes then it sticks to them. If it's shot then the gum sticks to whatever is nearby and the bomb can still be detonated.


Tar Buddy-
A robot of glue made to resemble a fellow soldier. It walks around stupidly looking stupid until an enemy soldier jumps it from behind... then they are permanently stuck to it and are either dragged alongside it or they have to lug it around while it flails around.


Forbidden Video Box-
A state-of-the-art holoprojection and surround sound entertainment system which plays the live action version of "Fox in Socks", starring Adam Sandlers as The Knox. Fortunatly, it only lets you play the movie in Non-English languages.
Anyone who can hear and understand the dialog of this Satan-spawned movie will cover their ears and bed to turn it off. If they see the actual picture they will go temporarily blind and try to run away. Prolonged exposure causes insanity, mass depression, suicidal urges, and cerebral homorages.


Sword Chucks-
Two razor-sharp blades connected by a chain. Only a master martial artist and swordsman can wield it without hacking off their own limbs... but if they can wield it they are unstoppable in melee combat.


Honey Bee Blaster-
A weapon that sprays a pressurised stream of sugar-water at the enemy and causes no damage... until a swarm of killer bees are released and they viciously attack them.


Orbiting Anvil Deploying Satilite-
A stratigic space based satilite that locks onto a stationary figure and drops an anvil onto the target.

/me applauds.

Its a military shooter in the vein of call of duty (great mix of action and realism) in a modern battlefield, it also counts with an open-ended design (maps--cities and other terrain-- are connected and are not just stand-alone levels).

weapons are supposed to be wacky, sci fi-ish or(and) unrealistic because they are easter eggs, so knock yourselves out.

another CRITERIA would be that I dont want a weapon that does the same as others but with more damage and a different name and weapon model, I want it to have unique abilities....ok go on now:P

The Pop-o-Matic

This is a precise sound wave emitter. It sends a particular sound wave in a frontal cone that's 22 degrees wide and 12 feet long. Currently, the only sounds it can reproduce are Britney Spears' and Shakira's top 5 hits. The effects are insanely dangerous for the minds, as you can expect. Tests showed that male audience slowly begins to drool, it loses its ability to focus on important matters and then it becomes totally paralysed by the subliminal sexual messages. Effects are known to last from anything ranging from 30 seconds to 1 hour, depending on the age of the subject. A somewhat similiar effect can be observed in the opposite gender members. Women begin walking in a sensual manner, they begin moaning and they end up dancing *VERY* suggestively (mimicking the aforementionned singers).

Don't you ever try this at home, or let the kids play with it. Prolonged use has been known to cause permanent damage.
