Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
multi barreled suggests high rate of fire
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Yes, it's the same logic as when you "upgrade" Bombards to Pepperpots and Ground Shakers to Hellstorm.guciomir wrote:multi barreled suggests high rate of fire
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
I am so glad someone made this thread; I was considering making it.
Please do NOT make the model red and black so it looks like Archangel. Make it whitish-grey like the Bunker Buster. That will serve as a visual reminder that the weapon is in the same class as BB, while its large size shows its increased power.

Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Gray, with red and black stripes, then?
Yes, it is indeed a fairly high rate of fire.
We can raise the mount a bit if clipping is an issue, but I see no reason to reduce firing angle.

with this kind of weapon in hand we are going to end up needing an BB radar detector in order to not get your defenses pwn... xD

hahahaha, "threat detector"!winsrp wrote:with this kind of weapon in hand we are going to end up needing an BB radar detector in order to not get your defenses pwn... xD
It beeps when strong enemy forces are inbound xD
It's ok about the color, and I'll make the mount bigger then.
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Here's the first sketch on multi-barreled Buster (let's just call it MBB while we don't decide the name)
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
The Rotary Bunker Buster.
It's hard to tell from the model, but are you retaining the Bunker Buster's asymmetric look? It's part of what makes it cool-looking.

Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
No, it should look like a Bunker Buster, except for larger/multiple barrels. Think of the relation between Howitzer, Ground Shaker, and Hellstorm. They share the same basic barrel, but the Ground Shaker's barrel is bigger, while the Hellstorm has 3 barrels.Zarel wrote:Gray, with red and black stripes, then?
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
The hellstorm barrels are smaller than the Ground Shaker ones, about the same size as the howitzer's ones, aren't they? :rolleyes:zoid wrote:No, it should look like a Bunker Buster, except for larger/multiple barrels.

I didn't make it asymmetric, would look weird I think - it'd look like there's too much weigth on a single connection
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Thinking it over, another option woul be make it 2-barreled, with a connection block between the barrels, that would be attached to the turret itself. Or should we stick with 3 barrels?

Howitzer, Ground Shaker, and Hellstorms are all howitzers.zoid wrote:No, it should look like a Bunker Buster, except for larger/multiple barrels.

Bunker Buster is a rocket, and Fortress Cracker is a missile. They're not the same weapon at all, except for the damage type. Think of the relation between mortar and howitzer.
This is awesome. It looks a bit like Hellstorm, though...Olrox wrote:Here's the first sketch on multi-barreled Buster

....or... what about Fortress Crusher? xD
Maybe I should remove my location o_O

"Fortress Cracker" looks more like something to get inside a fortress.
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
So the Bunker Buster is going to look like a Lancer now? We don't need a special missile color code; obviously MBB is a missile since its middle to late T3. Besides, its hard enough to distinguish all the reddish weapons (especially TK and Scourge). It has more in common with BB than with missiles in general.Zarel wrote:Howitzer, Ground Shaker, and Hellstorms are all howitzers.
