SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

: We've implemented this feature in Rampancy for both the
: pistol and the SMG. It's a freakin blast! I was
: originally against any sniper-like weapons because I
: thought it would screw up the delicately balanced
: gameplay. But the fact is that trying to snipe in
: Marathon is perilous to one's health (especially if ya
: can't watch the motion sensor while you're doing it.)
: Sniping ends up being a two way street.

The pistol seems a little too common, though. Why not just have a laser sight that helps bullets find their targets as a secondary fire mode (like the Magnum pistol in Opposing Force) and reserve the actual zoom feature for the SMG? Too bad dual pistols turned out to be so nasty to impliment :-(
