So I had the chance to play Receiver on my buddy's computer for a few hours and I like it so far, but definitely not easy. Being as careful and tactful as I could, but still got insta killed by a flying tazer that was too quick for me. So a quick idea I felt like doodling was a stun baton type weapon that used battery pack ammo for disabling a robot, or if there isn't any ammo, a club to buy you some distance.
The ammo could be scarce as the idea is that with a cartridge, you could one-shot-kill a robot. You could either start with the baton and without the gun or vice-verse.
The game has a really interesting mechanic to it that I would love to see applied to more items.

looks like a nice concept. I'd love to see that ingame

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
A suggestion
...
that's not retarded?
Mind fuckin' blown.
Awesome idea. This would be a cool addition, for sure, and an appreciated one at that. Those flying tasers are a pain in the arse.
I'm still a little scared that Aubrey had made two more enemies in which one was a ground turret with wheels and the second was an air turret with a gun.
You know what? I'm really glad they didn't spend longer than 9 days on it, Because then I'd never have found more than two tapes in one go.

Thats awesome! and i like the picture too
Re: Receiver Melee item concept (image)
I have to disagree. The whole core concept of the game is the advanced gun mechanics and how the realism of handling a real life gun can be fun in a game. Having a made up weapon introduced exclusively for close combat undermines the entire point of the game.

You know, i'd be fine with the made-up melee weapons. But if that's not an option, I think something like a real life taser would work. It's fairly short-ranged, and uses cartridges.
A good example would be the X-26:
(While unecessary, the laser sight would be a nice addition )

How about a water squirt gun? Make drone wet, then tease it to buzz you and it electrocutes itself.

I'd really like something as simple as a penknife just to cut the wires on sentries that I've shot the camera out on. Seeing one spinning around still is just too unsettling.

Umm. There's one problem with the idea of a taser in the game. How would a taser work on a robot?Azarus029 wrote:You know, i'd be fine with the made-up melee weapons. But if that's not an option, I think something like a real life taser would work. It's fairly short-ranged, and uses cartridges.

I do think it is a cool concept though.
Re: Receiver Melee item concept (image)
this idea is awesome... but i think that the stick should look like something homemade (the model).. and you will have some chance to spawn whit it.. (like aways)
