Title: Dismemberment
Post by: Danath on October 06, 2011, 04:00:12 pm
WHEN is this going to be coded?

Axes only or something. We need this  :mrgreen:

I was going to talk about slicing off limbs but let them keep fighting with the other hand but that seems too high a goal.

How about just kill shots wherever they hit have a % chance to cut off head or limbs if those are hit? You know you want it

Do you know difference between suggestion and balance discussion?

The amount of Force required to dismember either requires hollywood help or a luck, extremely strong person weilding a rather high mass focused weapon. Not going to happen as often as you think especially considering we wear armour.

It takes more force to lop an armoured limb off then to actually kill someone.

Do it like vikingr, have a tiny weeny chance from a strong swing to completely chop of the head clean, it will keep these people from spamming the boards with these types of crap.

Not very realistic, but definitely awesome.

As long as we can wear 2 armors (one over the other) at a time, i think it is possible. The armor below should be transparent (no texture), when you are hit, that section of the transparent armor "moves" up and "voila", your limb is gone. Yeah, i know is not that easy but it could be a start.

Maybe it could be done just for head chops, you wear 2 helmets (the one below got no texture) when are you hit in the neck, we change the upper helmet texture to the no-texture helmet so it seems that your head is gone. Somewhere i saw a crpg video of guy dueling with no head so i think it might be possible.

It is possible. Vikingr had this for a long time. We just don't want it.

How come you guys dont want to code this? There is plenty of people running around with little to no armor if hollywood faketry is the issue. Let it happen to them only (say armor per area lower than 20 besides hands)

Could make it only happen with high power polearms and 2h's (like bardiches)

5% chance to remove a limb on kill shot. Lift the code from vikingr? Sure they won't mind

If this is going to be implemented (actually there is no need for it although it would look awesome) then it should happen to every armour that is not mail or plate or something.
Don't think it's that hard for a sword to cut through leather^^

in times like these, i ask you, what would chadz do?
well, he would probably say, IMPLEMENTED and say its a tiny chance that a hit to the head will decapitate. And then he never implements it.
Due to the nature of certain idiots on the forums, they will say OMG I SAW IT when they didn't. Thus people will be unsure if its implemented or not.

It should only work with ppl in light armour. You can not cut through plate armour even with a  big 2handed axe. Wont happen.

make it people in like 20 armour or less, and you need to have > a certain PS or STR value plus weight behind weapon.
