Light Frame Question

[zdoofop]

Can someone please remind me, because I have completely forgotten, what weapons will the light frame have other than the fists?

 

[Pandagnome]

I also have forgotten thought it was just super power fists hmm

 

[allendegrey#1659]

vision book mentions under melee damage "powered hammers, swords, etc." so other then the power fists hammers and swords.

I could have sworn I remember someone saying the light will be melee weapons aplenty

 

[allendegrey#1659]

probably is written somewhere/mentioned on a chief chat, but that's the only thing that jumps out mentioning what weapons would be available. It does say etc. so I'd assume we'll get a bunch of duel wield weapons , and two handed ones like scythes, polearms etc.

I meant wht weapons will the light frame have in the playable mockup. Sorry for the confuison.

 

[EvilKitten]

The kickstarter demo will only have the medium frame I believe.

 

[Wyntyr]

I'm fairly certain the light OF will also be in the KS demo. No heavy though.

 

[Mahdi]

But how close are we to heavy being worked on? Weren't we only 8 subs shy or something?

I think he's right, perhaps Mrs Wyntyr (FairyL heh heh heh) could shed some light on this?

I'll let her know to check the forums as she's been called upon.

@zdoofop "I meant wht weapons will the light frame have in the playable mockup. Sorry for the confuison."

Grummz has mentioned that the Light Omniframe will be a melee build. However I don't recall whether he's confirmed any specific melee weapons ... yet.
Here is what Grummz said during a January Discord visit:

January 29, 2020 Discord #devtracker
Grummz: Yes Light will be in the playable
Grummz: At least the melee version
Grummz: I'm actually thinking Melee Light frame with dual power fists, and deployable turrets

As well as something Ronyn said during an impromptu Chief Chat:

March 9, 2020 Impromptu Chief Chat
Ronyn: Exactly what kind of melee weapons will be available is somewhat undecided.

@EvilKitten "The kickstarter demo will only have the medium frame I believe."

From Grummz during 2 separate Chief Chats. One Impromptu and one scheduled:

March 9, 2020 Impromptu Chief Chat
Grummz: Thanks to the subscribers, we're actually going to model and put the light frame in [the Playable Mockup].
Grummz: And it will have melee abilities.
Grummz: It will have the dual power fists and some other abilities that I'm not announcing yet.
April 9, 2020 Scheduled Chief Chat
Grummz: The Light omniframe will be modeled and ready for the Playable Mockup.
