Weapons of the Old West

Submitted by Funar on Tue, 09/04/2007 - 09:01
I'm hoping to spark some conversation here. The forums get tons of hits, but no one is talking. :)
So, this time the question is simple: What weapons of the 1800s would you like to see in Phoenix?
Weapons of the Old West
pretty much all of these http://www.weaponsofolde.com/oldwest2.html
:)
with the addition of the little guys too

bows & arrows.......don't know about different types and such. Which would also bring up the conversation about ammo for the bow. If it's player-made, store bought (or obviously both) or just generated.

That's funny. I actually own that little Derringer. Like the one you posted there, it can only fire blanks. It doesn't actually chamber real ammo.
Our goal is to really drive a player-based economy. Certain supplies will always be available from NPC vendors, but you'll be mainly looking to other players for everyday needs. This includes arrows and bullets in addition to weapons themselves.

Unfortunately, I don't really know much about the old west firearms so that was all I could add to the discussion lol
Weapons of the Old West
The legendary Colt Peacemaker (Colt Single Action Revolver)
The also legendary Colt Revolving Rifle
The S&W Cavalry Double Action Revolver
Weapons of the Old West
I want to use a bottle and wack it on someone's head.
Or maybe a chair. You know, old fashioned bar-room brawl?
Weapons of the Old West
Bottles, chairs, other people.. ;)
Weapons of the Old West
don't forget good ol' TNT or molitov cocktails
Weapons of the Old West
Scholfields and Volcanics for pistols.
It's like a fellow I once knew in El Paso. One day, he just took all his clothes off and jumped in a mess of cactus. I asked him that same question, "Why?"
- Steve McQueen in The Magnificent Seven
Weapons of the Old West
or a Cooking Pot(in a fight)?
Btw, are they gonna be plans for "Duels"(im sure there is).........where like in the main town road, they gonna turn, pace ten steep, turn and kill?
Weapons of the Old West
On the duel post what about the straight fastest draw in main street on a countdown timer
Weapons of the Old West
The biggest problem with timed events is cheating. There's no secure way to determine who was the fastest draw. You can't trust the client to tell the server its time because of possible hacks. You can't trust the time packets hit the server, either - players with slow connections (deliberate or not) or laggy ISPs would always lose to people with faster connectivity and/or less latency.
