Arcanum 21

What are you ideas for Arcanum 2?

Some of my ideas are:

-Streamlined inventory. As it stands it's alot better than say Fallout, but it can still be streamlined a bit more. A good example of a good inventory system is Dungeon Siege.

-I'd also like to see some new colleges in both Magic and Tech. Someone posed a sort of Dragon college which look really cool. My idea for a new Tech College would be Robotics. In this caterory it would go as fallows
-Steam Engine-Prequisite for many of the following
-Calculator- +1 IN when put in the shield slot
-Toy Dog-walking decoy strapped with explosives
-Mechanical Spider-Similar to what it is now, but weaker since it is at a lower tech level
-ExoSkeleton- +1 DX, +1 ST, +3 SP
-Automaton-Similar to what it is now, maybe a little weaker
-Android-Similar to Automaton, but has it's own inventory and weapon slots
It may have to be balanced out a bit but it would go something like that

I have more ideas, but it's pretty late and I want to beable to keep ideas to post later

 

Perhaps, instead of making android that easy...maybe just have it as a mule bot with no attack function instead of that, and have the player work a little bit harder to get to something as useful as a follower :winknudge: .

 

Hey that was me!!! Thanks.

The Robotics idea is a good one as well. I think if they did make Arcanum 2 then they should definatley some and check this forum out to get some ideas hehe.

 

Automaton Gunner (ya know, has machine guns for arms) would be cool. It'd fit right in the Robotics section.

 

or a automaton grenadier
or a self destructive automaton
or a sword melee automaton
or a healer automaton
or a flame thrower automaton
or a poison automaton

 

uhhhh, last time i checked it was an rpg, not a squad based strategy game. why dont we settle on suggesting an automaton type that can be equipped with a melee weapon, and a type that can be quipped with a firearm?

 

dunno

 

There is already one in the game, but I don't think it has machine guns.

Its made from a normal Automaton and an Elephant gun, but many on the offical forum say that there is a bug or something which effects it, ie it doesn't work.......

 

isnt it true you cant use the automatons that you make in the game?
