Note this is now a Official Obsidian Conflict weapon



Image

Through reversed engineering of combine tech found, the rebels were able to create a powerful weapon they call the Ion Rifle.

The weapon has two firing modes, first is a less powerful but is used in 3 round bursts, the secondary fire charges the weapon's super-capacitors and fires all the weapon's energy at once, though this requires a full battery.

Image

The weapon is powered by modified combine batteries.
Primary fire: 24 Rounds (8: 3 round bursts)
Secondary fire: 1 Round
Image


Disadvantages;
Limited Ammo
If rounds are fired to fast the weapon become less accurate

Advantages;
Laser Sighted
Powerful
When charged will take down any zombie or soldier with one shot, anything that it doesn't kill will be heavily damaged and lit of fire.

Also, I am not sure on the amounts of damage or recoil the weapon will have, we will have to do some testing to get all of it right.

Any ideas, suggestions, thoughts?

Model is awesome.
How about a grip under the barrel?
One shoting whole clip is a bit too much how about 2 shots per clip?
And a dark blue instead of green?

Nope,keep it green so we can easily distinguish it from the shield pick ups.

Like it, want it!

Make it, do it!


NOwA! :unrealweap:


P.s. I like the green,
The death animation would suit the combine vapourize (Strider laser/beta plasma rifle) death animation. But with a hint of green perhaps.

Also the weapon needs more green, i.e when teh lazer is charging etc. and all the yellow should be replaced with green imo.

Hint:Some sounds from the jailbreak:source railgun for this weapon would be good.

Why green? I'd like blue moar :P
like, a light, glowing blue. at least for the weapon, not necessarily for the ammo, though we could also make another ammo model that's not that similar to the suit batteries.

btw is the tau ammo already fixed or does it still have the missing faces?

Have the decency to ask/credit them because they are a very hard working, unappreciated team.

I suppose blue is more OC. And would be much more like one of my fav dystopia weapons the Ion Cannon.

And Blues, no its still missing the bottom.

Well, I don't know how many of you have noticed, but the model is from the Autogun on the level "Under the Radar".

If you played through the level or look at this video, you can see how I plan on making it sound and look.

The reason for the green battery is to easily distinguish it from the other batteries like Cyan said, unless you guys have a better color, I am going to keep green.

Also is it possible to make the firing effect and laser the same color the player selected? That would be cool.

And I am extremely glad that you guys like this weapon so much.
