    Well we got a nice teaser again and this time for a melee weapon, the MAKO FAL-1. A nice looking sword.

    [video=youtube;jIRlxwo9MV8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIRlxwo9MV8[/video]

    One thing that caught my attention is the fact they mention HEAT TOLERANCE, does this mean that some weapons are better for some situations then others?
    Will a low heat tolerance sword decay more due to fire then a high tolerance one??

    Interesting stuff !

    I think I saw that machette around 3am this morning when I woke up to the cutlery corner show selling knives and swords for resellers. It was in one of their fantasy collections. If it looks half as cool in game as the real one did It will be impressive. (funnng here.. not stating it was plagerised)

    I did notice one thing different in the video tho...The others showd a "Series" of the weapon type. This is a solo listing. That sword by chance is not a Unique item is it? Or a UL version of a "Series" in that line maybe?

    I am pretty sure that the rifle you were looking at is one of the beginner weapons (from what I recall someone from Arkadia Studios saying).

    I'll get it and trade for your UL LR 32 any day if that's the case ;)

    The Mako FAL-1 is part of a series, so you're looking at the beginner longblade which is like a long machette, they get longer. And yes the ARK-10 is also a beginner weapon, if you like that you'll really like the ARK-50 :)

    We'll show you a shortblade soon.

    My guess is its simply heat disappation...Every video has had that in it so far.

    The swords and shortblades we use are all powered weapons thats why they decay as badly as they do. Other wise MA would have made tt batteries for them. If you look closely many of the games edged weapons have switches on them. The Castoriain series weapons switches are obvious as the look like a little lever on the handle.

    I don't like it. This is not a solid blade but some phantasy bullshit. The outfit doesn't refer to any serious blade. It's kinda replica from asian phantasy games. Lame! The grip is too small. It won't stay hard fights. This blade is a pure phantasy product. I own a katana IRL ... that's a serious sword. Frugal, solid, deathly. Do we go the road like Aion and Silkroad? If this will happen I will be off before I'm on first time.

    P.S. I offered you to make some 3d-modelling. You denied it. Okay. But don't come up with such childish designs! I am a mechanical engineer. I want items that are technical correct. Not that pahntasy bullshit. Do we speak about a former high civilization? They won't use phantasy weapons. But weapons of high efficancy, easy to build.

    I completely disagree here. We don't know the culture behind the creators of that sword. There has to be a reason why it looks like that. Maybe it was part of the history of the knights; to wield an extravagant blade in combat? Who knows?

    I know those swords from other games. They won't fit to a hightech civilization. We know something about effiency, production costs and materials. This will be the same for each intelligent race. The announced blade doesn't fit to this knowledge

    Jamira aren't you being a bit harsh? after all it is a fantasy game we are playing :)

    They could make designs that are technically correct but wouldn't that be more costly and time consuming if they don't have any real engineers on the team?

    Personally i'm happy with fantasy or realistic both have a part to play. A fantasy weapon that may never exist technically doesn't really matter if it looks good and helps with the "escapism" factor which is what games are about for me...

    Well... since this high tech civilization has never been discovered before, no one can automatically know what their weaponry looks like based on previous other civilizations many light years away ;) Things could be completely different on Arkadia.

    I like it very much, but I am more of a MindForce abuser.
    Can I hope for teaser with MF chip.
