A horde Idea that should be Implemented

[Masteralex09]

I think that Enemies should spawn with different guns, So that enemies cant be so predictable and repetative.
For Example:
A Drone can spawn with a Hammerburst, Lancer, Gnasher, Retro, Gorgon, Boltok, or Longshot


The weapon spawn can be like this:

Drone: Hammerburst, Lancer, Gnasher, Retro, Gorgon, Boltok, Snub, or Longshot.

Sniper: Longshot, Torque Bow, or Boltok.

Grenadier: Gnasher, Sawed Off, Boltok, Hammerburst, Lancer, or Longshot.

Bolter: Boltok, Snub, or Torque Bow.

Cyclops: Hammerburst, Lancer, or Boltok.

Theron Guard: Lancer, Hammerburst, Gorgon, Boomshot, or Torque Bow.

Savage Drone: Retro, Gnasher, Boltok, Gorgon, or Longshot.

Savage Grenadier: Hammerburst, Retro, Gnasher, Sawed Off, or Boltok. Any Kind of Grenade.

Savage Theron: Cleaver, Gorgon, Boltok, Lancer, Retro, Hammerburst, Sawed Off, Gnasher, Digger, or Torque Bow.

Palace Guard: Lancer, Retro, Hammerburst, Gnasher, Boltok, Gorgon, Longshot, Torque Bow.

Beast Rider: Lancer, Hammerburst, Boltok, Torque Bow.

Reaver Rider: Lancer, Hammerburst, Torque Bow.

Theron Elite: Torque Bow, Sawed Off, Gorgon, and Kryll grenades or Lancer, Gnasher, Boltok, and Frag Grenades.

Kantus: Hammerburst, Gorgon, or Boltok.

Armored Kantus: Dual Gorgons, Dual Boltoks, or Dual Snubs(or Hammerbursts)

Hopefully, every enemy will have more variety and the waves will be filled with more locust with different assorted weapons.

A Bonus Wave Idea could also be Get Gnashty, Every Locust Player Spawns with a Gnasher, and COG players can only use a Gnasher until the wave is over.

OR.....a much simpler solution would be just to give enemies the ability to pick up weapons?!

they've already said that there will be a Smart-Spawn system. so just make the enemy more intelligent by giving them the mental capacity to recognize the power-levels of weapons...so for example, a Drone with a Hammerburst would pick up a Torque Bow upon seeing one on the ground...

I'm pretty sure they can pick up weapons, they just won't.

I actually very much like this idea except minus the Gnasher for Drones/Savage Drones.

[Demonz II]

Not going to happen.

that's why I edited my post...give them the ability to recognize which weapon is more powerful

Go play Campaign and you will see some drones carrying them, but they could be less skilled than the Grenadiers/Grenadier Elites/Savage Grenadiers.

It's just boring when in Campaign, when you see a drone, your first reaction isn't, look a hammerburst, but maybe that drone has a Boltok or Gnasher.

In Horde, it's another story(Note, most weapons, I have seen that specific Drone Type use it.(For the Grenadier with a Longshot, A. Carmine's Sniper was a Grenadier.))

you really have to love when people just say no or its long so i didnt read. seriously people don't post if you don't have anything useful to contribute.
on topic: i agree the enemies in horde are a little predictable so why not let them spawn with different weapons ore even pick them up.

I would be scared to see a Drone Pick Up a Boomshot and Digger from his dead Comrades, Imagine That.

Actually Try to Contribute to the subject, Too much reading?
What are you in Pre-school?
I Made a list, or are you just allergic to long posts?

[II Orsen II]

Why not support something that makes the game even better, rather than just telling them "Nope no way not gonna happen, stupid head"

[LordOfDeath]

i would love add this and they would pick-up weapons.Also, if they see unused or unmanned turret or silverback,they would steal it. Would be awesome and add some really nice challenge to horde.

That's a Good Idea, Imagine leaving your base in the middle of a wave to revive someone and comeback seeing a savage drone operating your Silverback and a Theron in your Troika.

[BLACKOUT in HDV]

I like seeing more enemies with lancers and such. great idea.

[Masteralex09]

Thank You, I will also Update the OP with a New Bonus wave Idea.

[wanes16years]

Yes i agree with this.
A boomer with a Gnasher o.o unpredictable

[Masteralex09]

Boomer with a Longshot or Torque Bow, like in Gears 2.
lol

Feel free add that to your OP. Having chance get staff stolen in horde would make less "solo-heroes" in horde

[jmfchuckie]

No. A Boomer should be recognized for having a Boomshot. They do that so you can make strategies. However, implementing a system where Drones could have more standard guns (Sawed-Off for example) would be okay.

Read the OP, It only lists Drone variations and Kantus, and I left out the SO for the normal Drone is because I never saw one use it.

Really?!



On topic: Yes, I think it would be a pretty neat idea. For me, as you say, Horde is simply too repetitive and predictable, so if it's possible to implement, I say 'yay'.

[Masteralex09]

I believe it is because in RAAM's Shadow drones Spawn with Gnashers, Retros, Boltoks, Hammerbursts, Longshots, and Gorgons, and In the kill feed, It says Drone, not Cyclops, Bolter, or Sniper.
And Remember the Event in Gears 2?(Bolters with Torque bows, Theron with Boomshots?)

I say no to this idea, because when you see an enemy you automatically know what weapon they're going to have and you can prepare for it (you see Drone, they're going to have HB, you see Grenadier you know he'll have a Gnasher so you back off). I'd hate to see a Drone at distance and close in for the kill only for him to pull out a frigging Sawed-Off...
