Well, I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I think it would be a good idea if we put all our weapon suggestions in a single thread. Then, it would be neat and orderly instead of having a new thread every time someone has an idea? Good or bad idea people?
Edit by ben: This is a good idea. I'll make this thread sticky.

The Earth Reshaper!
Upon firing of this small damage, but big consequences weapon, several things happen. First a small terrain-safe charge is detonated underneath the opposing tank, which gives it a large kick 90 degrees upward. At the same time jumpjets activate at a 90 degree angle underneath your tank.
Then the terrain is wiped out with several or one big tank-safe dirt remover, and then a new terrain just like the original terrain (with dark, then medium, then light, then crust dirt) will be generated in big explosions, just in time to catch the tanks as they fall back down to earth.
Super Volcano
You thought Volcano was big? Think again. Upon hitting the ground, this dull red plain shot disappears. Then bouncing napalm spreads from the landing point, as a dirt shot erupts (like mud pie, except straight up, small, and creates a cone shaped dirt), as various fireballs explode from that point making small craters where they land. Then a spray of napalm similar to old faithful erupts, and as the napalm disappears a small cycliner of dirt rises up from the cone (to simulate the lava cooling) leaving a large dirt structure, (and if you hit the enemy tank) and the enemy tank incased inside.

Although, possibly, very slightly, probably overpowered. Although that would make a great weapons pack! Epic or Overkill. :)

Pinball Machine
Upon hitting the ground, the weapon creates a rectangle shaped enclosure lined with bouncy dirt. Then, three or four Fireballs or Cannon Balls are spawned inside and begin bouncing around. If the enemy tank is inside as well... well you get the point...

Laser Eye
Like Colour Bomb, when it get close to the enemy tank it freezes, and creates a ball of floating dirt. Then a spiral of lasers similar to Laser Battery (I think) emits from it, before a small detonation removes the floating dirt, taking most of the surrounding terrain with it.

Fresh Pavement
Similar to Snow Blower, but spits out less dirt over a smaller area. The "spray" from the weapon would be a mix of fire and tar, so you basically cover your enemy in enough tar to immobilize him for atleast a turn and do a medium ammount of damage with the fire.
Torture
The shot creates a "donut" shaped blob of bouncy dirt on top of the surface where ever it lands. If it hits the opponent, it would completely incase then in a dome of bouncy dirt forcing then to hit themselves the next turn unless they use a well digger or another weapon of that sort.
Particle Accelerator
Shoots a yellow beam that can cut through dirt about the size of the tunnel weapon's hole. However, the beam deals damage (a bunch of 1's). The weapon would only last 1.5-2 seconds, so the more dirt it has to cut through the less it will deal damage wise. And to prevent it from being like the tunnel, only better, the dirt all falls back down after the weapon stops.
Paradrop
The shot fires a projectile that explodes when it is over the enemy (just like the way anvil drops over the enemy). Five little green soldiers parachute down and fire three shots at the enemy tank (regardless of whether there is land in the way, if there is, they shoot the land). The soldier's would be affected by the wind as they fall to the ground, and the higher up the shot deplpoys the further the spread, and thus the lower the chance for high damage.

OK my idea for a new weapon is this. The Tank fires off the round as usual. The round is a point marker for the airstrike. That is where the center of the Air strike is aimed. I say a AC-130 Spectre Gunship flies in and launches a barage of gattlin gun fire and a few artilery rounds at the location of the target. If hit direct on could cause a sizable amount of damage to the land and tank (points) but if missed by just a little (1 or 2 degrees off)it still brings a few points in. What do you think I know I posted this in another spot but figured it might get seen over here better. I got a few more ideas but that one sounded the best. Thank for a great game! Chris....

08-30-2006, 06:05 AM
I submitted all of these to Mike before he released the Fireworks and Gravity Packs, so if any sound similar, it might be that he modeled some weapons after these ideas. Or maybe it's entirely coincidental
Tank Shield: provides a large layer of dirt around your tank. Though the enemy shots detonate on the dirt, your shots completely ignore it.
Birthday Cake: fires white shot/creates square pile of dirt (cake) and three small magic walls on top (candles). The tips of the magic
walls blow up, sending three groundhogs straight for the center.
EMP: Covers the whole screen with an explosion that doesn't affect the terrain. When the other tank is hit, their angle and power will be messed up (just like a Wacky Tanks).
Armageddon: Kinda like a BIGGER, STRONGER, MORE DEADLY meteor shower, OR one giant meteor with extra napalm.
Rocket Ship: Starts off like Jump Jets, but leaves behind a long trail of fire that falls to the ground.
Grave Digger: Fires a shot that digs a deep hole downward. Then, the hole is filled completely with dirt
Jail Cell: Basically, a Scatter Shot plus a Magic Wall
Lightning Bolt: a HUGE lightning bolt comes from the sky straight down to wherever the shot hit. The bolt does damage per second and completely ignores terrain
DX-Bomb (haha):fires a straight shot that bounces on walls and the edges of the screen! Every time it hits dirt, the ball leaves an explosion and gets a little smaller, until it is gone.

Here are some more. Again, I submitted all of these before Fireworks and Gravity packs (Loose Change suddenly reminds me of Streamers)
Loose Change: fires a bunch of coins (like Tommy Gun), but the
shots ricochet off of everything, even the tank. Everytime one hits
the tank, it does damage.
Fire Hydrant: fires a red clump of dirt. When the dirt hits
the ground, it sprays hail all over the place.
Fertilizer: Fires a green cruiser. The cruiser leaves behind a
looooooooooong trail of green dirt before exploding.
X-ploder: fires a bomb that explodes at contact, releasing 4
X-ray cannons in a + shaped pattern.
Elementals: fires a single shot that hits the ground. Once it
hits the ground, it will spray out an upward stream consisting of fire
bolts, hail shots, zappers, and dirt balls. Everything is slightly
weaker, but that the randomness and multitude of projectiles evens it
out.
Goodie Bag: It's like a box of chocolate - you never know what you're gonna get :)

i like "colossus"
wherever the bullet lands, a portion of the land (about triple the magic wall's thickness) will be stretched high upwards and a cascade of bouncy dirt fall on the left side (if player two), or the right side(first player).
or maybe "fan"
where the bullet lands, a gust of wind blows the target away from where they were (jump jets, but used for moving the OPPENENT)
"dragon's breath"
shoots up a massive amount of fire at once and spreads out a little. if it hits the opponant, it does about the same damage as flamethrower, but charrs the earth underneath and the tank sinks slightly, rendering it unable to move (or it could sink just enough to cover the whole thing=P)
"BB gun"
like a mini gun, but with bouncy bullets
i have lots of ideas=P=P

I just want to see oil implemented. I don't care what weapon would spread it. Another kind of dirt like glue or bouncy that can catch fire and burn away when hit with a fire weapon. It would be cool if it could coat tanks too. Once lit, it would slowly spread to all the adjacent oil and burn for about five seconds, causing damage to nearby tanks.
AND THE GLUE BOMB SHOULD STOP TANKS FROM MOVING

TruShot: a weapon that automaticly adjusts your angle and power to hit the enemy with a medium sized weapon ( like 50 or 60 pts.). OR make it worth more points but when its done it randomizes your power and angle.

only reason i joined is to give better ideas rofl
Launch Failure a normal shot, stops in the air above enemy tank, shoots flames straight down at the tank, no random directions. the shooting should last about 5 secs and deal a crap load of damage. after the shot is done, it will fall and crash into where ever and deal a lil more damage. it cant be shot over the visible screen area.
Anti-Dome its like dome protect, but it should nullify anything that touches it. it would be kinda indestructible, but if a shot is fired in front or around the dome, itll destroy it.
Critical Fault where ever the shot hits, the land under it will be totaled with a chain reaction of explosions and flames.
sry if none of these are original. just pulled some random ideas. and feel free to suggest better names too rofl

The Spire: Acts like a homing worm in that it goes under ground . But when it gets directly under it zooms up and creates a mound of dirt under the opponent.
Here's a few that I posted in another thread about 2 weeks ago.
{
Before reading these, keep in mind that I have no idea how the game is programmed. I don't even know what computer language it's in.
Weapon Concepts
Squirt Gun - A high-accuracy stream of "water" (think Hail Storm)
Dome Destroy - Like a bouncy version of Dome Protect, but as a projectile. It would create about as much bouncy dirt as D.P. does regular dirt, but it would override the existing terrain around it the same way Shadow Blast does. (Is that possible with bouncy dirt?) Imagine the possibilities if they only have a Fission Bomb left... *evil grin*
Shuffle - Takes all dirt/tanks within Large blast radius (Big Shot) and randomly relocates them.
Bouncy Storm - Like Snowblower, but it shoots those little bouncy pellets instead. Good for adding a little chaos to any match. (This would also work for glue, but it wouldn't be nearly as useful. Seems like the whole "glue weapon" concept has died.)
Wheel of Fate - Randomly chooses one weapon from all the available weapons to fire. Very dangerous, if you're unlucky.
Other Ideas
This has been said before, but mines would be cool. Another interesting idea would be to have gas cans (like the Worms series) that detonate into Napalm if hit hard enough, but will give an extra Move point to any tank that drives over and collects it.
Multiplayer. Not just the standard 2-player and not necessarily online play (though that would be great), but a mode like in the original Scorched Earth on which more than 2 tanks duke it out. Some weapons, like Solar Flare, are already well suited to it.
And speaking of Scorched Earth, it would be interesting to have an option to choose between the classic point-based mode and a "last man standing" mode like Scorched Earth had.

Ok, here's another thing the Blank could do. Rather than taking away all the points of your enemy, perhaps the Blank should just be a single tracer shot? Just throwing that out there. Personally, I like my first idea. Note: the Blank must get a direct hit, like the Sniper Rifle. Here's the icon:

I just have one suggestion that I'd personally find helpful:
What about a power tracer? Instead of angle, this tracer would fire bullets at +5, +10, -5, -10, etc. power. That's the only kind of tracer I'd find useful, myself (I never get the current ones).

No it wouldn't be focused, but there would be so much of it that it would do a fairly good amount of damage. You would have to be underground or on the top of a hill for it not to do much to you.
You would use it when the other player is in a whole or crevice and you are either:
1. On a hill,
2. Underground, or
3. Under a shelter of some sort
The "rain" would collect in any crevices on the level.

Sunspot: when fired a golden shot zooms out with a tail like the super Nova, it hits the enemy like a neon blast but instead of the enemy being shrouded in darkness a bunch, he is flared into light (With an explosion/covering like the Tar Ball) Which sets him on Fire.

how about these?
acid spew- a green hail storm that does decent damage while destroying terrain
splinter wheel- a bouncing brown chakram that releases brown projectiles when close to enemy tank (4pts apiece)
papercut- 7 paper airplanes home in on opponent (10pts apiece)
thunder cannon- upgraded version of acid rain which releases 10 lightning bolts (20pts apiece)
octillery- 8 little tar balls travel a short distance and cover opponent (8pts apiece)
frenzy plant- a seed is shot into the ground and quickly rises as a rose which releases thorns in all directions. the more the seed travels through the dirt the more thorns are produced
krazy gloo- upgraded version of glue bomb which also prevents opponent's jump jets and backfire
sheer cold- a massive snowball the size of a mountain mover and randomly falls from the sky dealing 80 damage on direct hit and then breaks into 50 snowballs which does damage (2pts apiece) and covers whatever it touches in snow

It's kind of like Rockslide? Or is it different? More powerful?
Rockslides give you 1 point for each hit, right? Oil Spill gives you 2-5 depending on the accuracy. And, if it's a direct hit, it could cover up the whole tank. If not, and the oil just reaches the ground where the tank is standing on, then either the tank would not be allowed to move (if the ground is leveled) or the tank's gonna slide down (if that tank is standing on a slanted area).
teddyboy09
09-09-2006, 03:36 AM
And I have another one; I'm actually very proud of this:
Paparazzi - Simply put, it's Flash Blast meets Chain Reaction, with camera flash & sound effects though.
This one, I'm not as proud but still a suggestion nonetheless:
Magnet - When the bullet lands, a rod comes up off the ground, then magnetizes the tank nearest to it. If it's too far, though, it won't attract anything.
This Magnet is kind of like a tracer with instant results, meaning you'd know where your weapon landed, and instead of waiting another turn to adjust and wasting that turn for the tracer, you won't have to adjust (unless your opponent moves again) and it already gave you some points (20 when the tank hits the magnet). If it's a direct hit, though, a rod need not come off the ground; the bullet can just hit the tank and give you 50 points.
zetablack
09-09-2006, 12:38 PM
magnet gives me an idea!
Magnet dirt-you fire a blue magnet shaped wepon and when it lands it covers the area with blue and red colors that when a weapon gets near it pulls it close to it.
teddyboy09
09-09-2006, 02:55 PM
I've even thought of a 15-weapon expansion pack, lol. It includes my previous suggestions, and I've edited some of them too.
9-Ball - This is like a Fireball, but it's weaker; it just bounces around hitting whatever it touches.
Acid Storm - Acid Rain with multiple clouds popping up nearby.
Acid Flood - This is like Acid Rain meets Hail Storm. But, this one is more powerful, and it melts whatever part of the ground it touches. If it hits a Wall, that wall would also be melted off.
Bubble Gum - a bigger Bouncy Bomb
Disco Ball - a silver ball is shot and stops mid-air (a la Color Bomb, but this uses a bigger ball), and then shoots multiple zappers worth 5 points each.
Fire Ants - Ant Farm meets Fire in the Hole! Before covering their target with dirt, the ants give off some mini-napalm before dishing the dirt.
Jumping Beans - 10 small Hot Potatoes (that jump like Fleas, gaining more points with every hop) are launched into the air.
Magnet - a rod would show up where the shot lands, and that rod - depending on where it lands - would attract the tank nearest to it (meaning, if you shoot it just in front of you, you'd be the one who sticks to it). If you and the opponent are close and you shoot a magnet between you, both tanks will be attracted and no points awarded. 20 points are awarded/taken away when the tank hits the rod. There's a limit to the distance for the magnet to take effect, though. A direct hit does not need a rod; it gives you 50 points automatically.
Oil Spill - An Old Faithful full of oil. Whatever part of the ground it touches, turns to black. A direct hit results in bigger damage. And, if a tank is in the Oil Spill's affected area, that tank would either also slip (if it stands on a slanted area) or would just get damaged and not move (if on leveled ground). I removed the "covering up" part because I don't think oil can do that.
Paparazzi - Flash Blast meets Chain Reaction!
Tennis Balls - 10 green skippers shot into the air.
Trail Blazer - Cruiser with Napalm! First, when the bullet lands into the ground, it explodes like Napalm. Then it cruises along, leaving a Napalm trail. So, if you miss the first shot, you still have a chance of hitting the target.
Train - 10 big cruisers are shot all at once into the air, and once they've landed together, you notice they're close. They then cruise together (like a train). It's like an Ambush but only for one side.
Twister - another one of my favorite ideas :D . When the bullet lands, a twister shows up. It would uproot whatever it can; The target tank, Walls, Forests, Shelters, Domes, Dirtballs, Mud, Funnels...even some ground! When the tank lands (after a massive beating from the twister - if it was caught at all), the other uprooted items will do too. So that means the tank can also be buried in a lot of dirt.
Worker Ants - Ant Farm effect with heavier damage; but comes at a slight price. First, they don't immediately dig into the ground. They work like cruisers, and travel for a longer distance. If they come across the tank, they still keep cruising, carrying the tank along with them. Once they've went the distance, the Ant Farm digging-and-covering of the tank takes place.

I have a couple of ideas:
Tesla Coil-makes a wall that zaps whoevers too close to it.
Metal Storm-(For all of u who saw that episode of future weapons.)Launches LOTS of fairly accurate bullets but each give small amounts of points.
Air Strike-The tank shoots a laser (its straight so u need them in your line of sight) then, 5 heatseakers come from the sky, heading for that point.
Blizzard-Sort of like the solar flare but they build up when they hit the ground.
Gunpowder-Fires like bouncy dirt, but when it gets hit, it explodes.
Grantax
09-10-2006, 07:14 PM
All the simple ideas are used up, I was trying to think of a weapon today, but it didn´t turn out like a simple idea.
Imagine a razor blade, when it goes through mountains, it sends up diggers, like the 'well digger', but each of them are 1 pixels wide, and goes upwards, so if the razor blade goes through a cliff, it will clear the part of the cliff that it goes under, by sending up one digger for each pixel of the cliff it goes through.
And when it is 10 units away from the opponent, it splits in 2, and they go on each side of the opponent, and then they meet again under the opponent and crahes & disappears. (Or they could send out particles hitting the opponent)
Andway, as they go under the opponent, in the ground, they have the same task as usual: The send "diggers" upwards, creating a hole which the opponent will fall into.
I really don´t think this is the best idea ever, but it´s like anvil, or piledriver, but it looks cooler. :D
I will make a picture.
Grantax
09-10-2006, 08:12 PM
Please just ignore the above, I couldn´t edit it, here´s a better explanation:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v363/Grantax/PT/RazorBlade01.jpg
First, the weapon is fired, it goes right through the hill, and send up "Diggers".
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v363/Grantax/PT/RazorBlade02.jpg
The razorblade gets close enough to the enemy, and splits.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v363/Grantax/PT/RazorBlade03.jpg
It goes under him, sending up "Diggers". (I didn´t bother drawing them here, but you get the point)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v363/Grantax/PT/RazorBlade04.jpg
The ground under him is digged away.
More features may be added, like.. the razor blades could throw some floating substance down when it splits, so when the razor blades have digged the hole, then the floating substance will fall into the hole where the enemy will be.

Exactly like single shot only it doesn't give you points it subtracts your Enemies points.
Spreads like Bouncy Dirt, but it attracts most weapons.
1. If you do some thinking, subtracting enemy points are not as good as adding points to yourself.
For instance, an enemy could have 0 points. (There´s a minimum limit)
But there´s no max limit to your points, so you will get points no matter what situation you´re in.
2. What do you mean by 'attract weapons'?

09-10-2006, 09:31 PM
1.well ya i guess your right, but who says you have to use it first its like using a good weapon with bad accuracy on the game wanna waste a good weapon and more likly miss than hit or use some bad ones first to see where your going to shot next turn.
2.like the lucky shot when it comes close enough it goes right to the tank

the magnet dirt is like well... a magnet get it.

No big deal, man... ;)
I was just pointing out to Xap that it was actually mentioned before Adder_Poland's "Jail". :)
I realize that it's almost impossible to know of all of the ideas that have been posted.
I like your "weapon packs" by the way. :)

i'm curious which one of my weapons is your favorite out of both my packs
(too everyone wholiked my ideas)
For me, it's a toss-up between "4th of July" and "Hurricane". :)
I also liked "Plasma Bomb"!

Blue Moon-a tar ball that goes off when it gets close to enemy. Then shots shoot out like the ones from crazy wall.(20 points each) ia it blue because of the name or black the tar?
I love the plasma bomb's icon:) :)

I'd like to see an icon for Teddyboy09's:
Trail Blazer - Cruiser with Napalm! First, when the bullet lands into the ground, it explodes like Napalm. Then it cruises along, leaving a Napalm trail. So, if you miss the first shot, you still have a chance of hitting the target.

I think a 2.0 weapon would be a bit technical for a novel game like Pocket Tanks. Maybe call it something like Super Streamers. I like the idea, although the name can be better. :)

To counter these crazy powerful (there are enough as it is) weapons, I have created the most worthless weapon of all:
Poor Tracer: Fires one tracer bullet. Nothing else.
zetablack
09-15-2006, 11:48 PM
yea that bites
heres one
mega cannon-fires a cannon ball that goes though all objects!
Cutter-Bullet-This fires a bullet that goes exactly on course, going through land as though the land was not there. In other words, the land does not affect this bullet's course, so it would go through land as though it was air. It would deal around 60 damage.

Direct-contact-fires 1 cruiser and one boomarang that land on both sides of the tank.(15 points each) fires 2 ground shockers on each side of the tank(less amount of the bullets that go down and lower the ground)and in the center of it all, one single shot is fired where it's aimed(40 points for direct hit). It's complecated(sorry for spelling), but I like the idea!

I bet this idea has already been done before, but oh well:
Direct Hit: Your opponent gets hit out of nowhere, taking 20 damage. It's only 20 damage because it takes absolutely no skill to use.

This has probably already been said but I'm to lazy to find out. :p
Absolute 0: If hit by this weapon you lose all of your points. (This weapon since it would be really good wood have a slight randomness to it like the Gold Bullet.)
Other idea:
Sun Tan: Makes a sun appears directly above and rays of heat start cooking the enemy tank.

i think sun tan would be better if it was called magnifying glass and instead of a sun going over a magnifying glass would.

Well I meant it to be like a popcorn pop right at the centre of the enemy tank, so it would be able to hit a buried enemy.

The Breaker-shoot a poorly aimed (like how golden bullet is) bullet. When it gets close, (barley further away than a zapper would be) it explodes (50 points) and shoots out 8 lasers, one up, one down, one to the right, one to the left and all the diagnals.(30 points)

Hey guys. Suggestions are logged and submitted to Mike as of yesterday. He just got back to me with some of his favorites. He noted many of them that he liked (the document I gave him was 15 pages long), but I'm only going to mention a few.
He enjoyed YellowBounder's Laser Eye idea. Was it Me suggested Pinball Machine. Mike has been working on a Pinball themed weapon in his head for some time. We just discussed it, though it would work more like Pachinko. Related to that are the multiple torture or inverted shelter ideas, which we enjoy for the pure love of evil. Many of the weapons that involved auto targeting are not feasible under the current game engine (such as WiM's Particle accelerator, PSH's Direct Hit!). Zwaken had a few that we were both taken with, such as the Juggle, Sword Dance, Spinning Blade, and Cruising Woofer. While his Twin Shot idea was cool, it is also not possible in the engine yet. Zetablack's Icicles received wide acclaim at the office, and magnet dirt is something which is not in the current engine, but will hopefully be coded into the next update. It's an idea Mike has been working on, and has a wide variety of fun applications. PhantasyStarHero was another big submitter, and Mike was intrigued by the possiblities of the EMP weapon and the Xploder weapon. He thought DX Bomb was a cool name, with interesting applications for the weapon, and Goodie Bag and other grab bag weapons will need an engine change to work. Matt198292 had a few good ideas which Mike was already working on. His Fan suggestion is being planned as something in the next engine update, and BB gun, or something very much like it, will hopefully be in the next expansion pack. MegaDethGod had a bunch that we liked, especially the Spire weapon, which Mike and I talked about modifying a bit, and the effect for SpotLight would be really cool to see done well. Mike mentioned teddyboy09's TrailBlazer, and JonKid55's Tesla Coil and Gunpowder as good ideas, the latter of which is being worked on already.
Now we come to the one who seems to be the crowd favorite, Zantetzuken. We loved the Fire and Ice Dragon ideas, and the 4th of July would be fun to make. Plasma Bomb, Fire Wheel, and Avalanche also received high marks for fun, and Punishment falls into the Torture/Pinball Machine category we all love. Gamble is like Goodie Bag in that it is a great idea which will take an engine change. Mike also particularly liked the icon for that. But he's a fiend at the craps table, so...
Finally, though there are many more good ideas, Mike was intrigued by the possiblity of a Power Tracer, such as that suggested by NetNomad and seconded by many of you. The likelihood of us making one? To quote the Master, "Maybe".
That's it for this round. See you all again real soon, I hope!

One more thing, guys. I'm going to lock this thread now and start up a new one. I hope you don't mind too much, it makes it a lot easier for me to keep track of. I'll sticky that one as well.
