from rambo_6's idea but has nothing rly to do with his

it'd be awesomely cool if in a rambo game when u get shot by a bow the bow keeps flying straight until it hits something and ur body also stays on the bow and flies with it - then u'd have like bodies hanging of walls and tops from bows!!!
even better if bodies don't disappaear and neither do the bows that hit them! u'd have like handing bodies everywhere - but like maybe have a max of 20 or like 30 dead bodies and after every other hangning dead body the older one's would disappear
this way u could also get multiple kills with one shot and have like 2 bodies hanging off one bow at a wall

edit:
Will's idea (should be in topic): have the flaming bow pull u into the wall and THEN explode - since it moves slower than normal bow it won't hurt u as much on the hit but when ur pierced at the wall and it explodes u then u'll DIE!!!!!

edit2:
u can control when the flaming bow should explode by clicking "drop weapon" button (default "f") - tat would also be quite nifty!

lol that would be hilarious. especially in places like arena 1 at the bottom where everyone dies. To have like 20 corpses just hanging around on the ceiling. sounds fun.

Do you mean "bodies hanging from arrows", and "if you get shot by an arrow the arrows keep flying"? Because you use the bow to shoot the arrows. If that's what you mean, I'd really like this idea...it'd be way funny to see little Soldats hanging from walls or ceilings. Good idea!

i concur, they could have a really small map with tons of dead bodies laying on the ground with arrows sticking out of them

This is by far the greatest idea ever. I love Rambo, I love comedy, and now I love you for suggesting this. XD

I like this idea, but it seems unrealistic that a soldier would get hit by an arrow, then get propelled into the air into a wall. Wouldn't the arrow just go right through the guy in real life?

Maybe you could have it so that it only sticks your guy to the wall if he is close enough, like say an inch.

Funny idea though.

Lol cool. Then u can play predator and hang ppl up on the roof.

how could an arrow have that much power? maybe if they were next to the wall when you shot them they got stuck to it...

the arrow couldnt carry a man because if you shot him THAT hard it would just go straight through him.

Guys, this isn't just any old bow... It's the RAMBO BOW! It has leet magic powers.
Good idea. *claps*

Will
January 20, 2005, 12:15 pm
good point. but it shouldnt work for the flame arrows because that would be silly...

OMG! i just had a thought... how cool would it be if you shot the person with a fire arrow.. it carries them to the wall and then BOOM! lol, flying explosive people of doom.

just what rambo 6 said, u shuld be close to the wall before mr. rambo can pin you to it.

You saw this coming, didn't ya?

Soldat ain't realistic!

It'd be hilarious to see people nailed to the walls by arrows. Please make it happen ^^

thnks for good reviews - it is a MAGIC bow (a magic rambo bow to be percise) - and dind't u guys ever see like ur body flying far far away when hit by a bow? (also with barret) as of to Will's idea im gonna put tat in the main topic's idea with a slight twist...

January 20, 2005, 11:55 pm
Ya I think its a good ideal to if a person when he gets shoot with a arrow he gets stuck in the wall for awhile.

Its a good idea, but there is a problem...

Corpses disappear when the play spawns again.

good job mar77a - u figured out some of hte most basic concepts of the game - so therefore we will all use our heads REAL HARD to think of a way to get around this pseudo-problem - hmm....AHH: don't make the corpses disappear when they're dead until like there r more than 25 dead bodies on the map as i said b4...YAY

Rambo_6
January 21, 2005, 1:25 am
Or make it so only the player's head travels with the bow XD

That would be funny.

Rhombus

I know this wont ever be implemented, but wouldnt it be cool if, after some time, your body slides over the arrow and drops off from the ceiling? This would make it a survival horror game like silent hill lol

Maluno

Hehe, I love it. Well, maybe not the arrow idea, but I have always been wanting the corpses of dead players to stick around longer. They should slowly fade, or "melt" into the ground when they dissapear too, rather than just blinking out. Please, longer corpse visibility time? I like hiding in them (i am all red and bloody colored), and then jumping up and catching people by suprise.

how bout we just stick to my idea and don't add too many weird things to it tat'll just make it a more useless idea (more useless than it is - BUT ITS FUNNY!!!!!)

hmm.. great idea, explosive arrow shot at a soldat, turns it into another weapon like a m79 shot.. and if this body hits another body it makes a chain kill :o or something =P

That would be funny.


err.. so if u hit ur enemies' leg, the head will still be the victim?

ok you get it, it'll be really fun, but in a heavy match, rambo doesn't like to be killed by falling bodies, it's not very fun ^!^

117, please check the dates of the threads that you're posting in. Unless it's a very important idea that you feel you need to add, most people don't like reading old stuff.

well thnx 117 for bringing my topic back up - but DON"T DO IT AGAIN!
btw, those bodies disappear after the person respawns!

be awesome to watch their blood just pour and it be splattered on the walls and stuff once they hit it. awesome idea man

zyxstand
February 20, 2005, 5:07 pm
lmao - as a matter of fact, it would also be awesome if they could just be handing and drip blood in massive amounts... although you wouldn't really see that if they're on the floor...

zambo_the_clown
February 21, 2005, 11:43 am
then have blood be able to fall farther instead of disappearing after falling a few feet

I like this idea, but how about the flame arrows cause a molotov cocktail sort of explosion that injures whoever is around it, not to mention the prospect of a burning body falling from the sky...

What would happen if an arrow impaled soldier flies through the air and manages to hit you?

2 dead bodies on a stick. Barbecued if you use a flaming arrow.
