The new weapons look AWESOME!
The Lugaru games are must-get-games.

BUMP!

Just for you, BwS. ^_^

Nah. To make this a valid post, I'll say something almost-useful. Has anyone mentioned finding natural weapons? All the manufactured weapons everywhere are fun, but when Turner is surrounded by enemies and unarmed, it might be cool if he could snap off a particularly long, thin and durable tree branch and swing it like a staff, or use a short, heavier one as a club. It could be done with in-game mechanics, such as simply leaping to the top of the tree, crouching over a good branch, and pressing Q, or it could just be a unique event in a few places where he leaps up and grabs a branch in a cutscene and that's your only weapon for a while.

Actions that the main character takes during a cutscene like conversation and grabbing a tree branch are not my idea of good cutscenes. Give us control!

Indeed. I'd much prefer that it be implemented in-game, but just for the coolness of seeing Turner backflip-kick a branch off a tree and catch it before it falls, I'd be a'right with him doing it in a cutscene as long as we got to use it afterwards. ^_^

It's just weird that a bunch of rabbits are frequently wielding relatively high-tech weapons when no one ever does something like that, that's all.

That's the problem though! You get an item you got from a cutscene! Worst scenario! Danger!

Back in the beta days of Lugaru when I was throwing all kinds of random ideas around I suggested Turner be able to break off a branch, light it on fire, and light other characters on fire

...

As you can tell, it wasn't implemented

Fire in general was, though.

I like the idea of lighting a branch, but more for the reason of lighting a dark area than setting a rabbit alight :3

lol

nah but, being a guitarist myself, that would be awesome...anyways...more like AXE!!!

EDIT: just thought of this, maybe there should be a deleted scene where Turner's beating people up while some other rabbits and/or wolves play Queen's all-famous "We Will Rock You"...kinda like a spoof music video maybe
