War club rework

#21

Thank you.

I would say War Club could definitely use a secondary attack, but as far as how to avoid making it a clone of the axe and hammer I have a few ideas:

  1. All weapons that do not have a secondary attack get a parry function. This would allow for some pretty cool 1v1s happening, as well building a basis for a more in-depth pred vs pred combat system.

  2. The secondary is a heavy attack similar to the axe and hammer, but it momentarily slows sensitivity and movement speed.

  3. Similar to #2, but instead of lowering movement speed it momentarily inverts controls.

Just a few ideas on how to make it unique from other weapons in game while making it a viable choice to go up against good teams with.

A while ago when I played more frequently I made a video of only using the War Club against the FT, here’s that if you want to see some war club plays:

It needs to be unparryable

#26

Instead of parry maybe blockable

#27

The blurry screen should also make the FTs accuracy go to max spread inaccuracy.

Or just unparryable. Melee is bad enough as is

Honestly when there’s one last ft member I love when they wip out the knife and the I get out my wrist blade for some awesome battle especially when my mask is gone

#31

I mean yes same, but the war club could be the one weapon you can’t parry. Or parry could activate for the final surviving member

#32

Adds to the thrill when they parry

#33

Oh I see

#34

But parry is too easy to do at the moment

#35

They should be able to parry when they the last solider

The only thing missing is the mask removal emote

There’s a lot missing from this game but that would be cool too lol

Maybe you can’t parry while under the blurry vision effect. That would make it an interesting and effective melee weapon, without being totally OP.

Welcome. It can be deadly in the right hands, but even then it is so bad compared to other weapons it is just a meme weapon at this point (up there with battle axe). In my opinion both would be decent weapons if they fixed tracking, as at multiple points in my video I hit the FT, but it did no damage.
