gt5t Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Robot Grenades: for characters like mine that are very skilled in melee/unarmed but prefer to not go charging in due to lack of heavy weaponry. I use the "Rise and Shine" perk from the more perks mod and similar mods that let me have alternative means of distraction or enemy elimination with minimal risk. Anyways enough of my nerd crud, my idea is just to have "grenades" with a slightly larger c4 type model or box shape (but that throws like a normal grenade so that its useful) that you can throw and unfolds into a low DT low HP robot that is sure to die but has a chance to get some shots in if it isnt focused or is strategically placed. If someone was interested in making this it could actually get pretty interesting, there could be multiple recipes for the robot, the base product being just an unarmed robot or maybe with a knife. Then there could be a few others that consume basic weapons in the recipe but make the robot spawn with the weapon consumed. Maybe even an explosives dependant perk that allows you to modify the robot with a chest mounted frag mine basically making a suicide bomber bot. Or a science/repair perk that lets you craft the basic weaponless robot with extra sensor modules resulting in a robot that searches the battlefield for weapons and then uses them, or even a non combat related version that searches for anything it can pick up and then reports to a player placed becon for you to take all found loot. A scavenger bot you can just throw in the aftermath of Warzone or large fight and walk away from. Basically just grenade deployed disposable followers would really float my boat. If you think its a cool idea say so, hate getting abunch of views and no feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony the Wookie Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I actually kind of like this idea, I am going to think about putting something like this in my Fallout 4 mod. I was done with New Vegas a long time ago... Long long time ago... I'm going to go sketch out some concepts of decoy robots that can fold up into a carry able size. The most difficult part seems to be making it small enough to be carried around but still big enough to distract your enemy. I don't really want to animate a robot rolling out of a compressed ball or whatever... Actually, that would be kind of fun, but I don't want to bother with importing animations into a game engine because I hate that kind of stuff. So Maybe just a big smoke particle when the thrown ball hits the ground and have the robot pop out of the smoke... I'll think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChancellorDenali Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Sounds like a pokeball, but robots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
