Corpse Launcher!

Possible Halloween / Blood raider item? Just make it like a festival launcher except it loads corpses. Nobody will care what it actually does. CCP you literally could not do this wrong as long as the corpse loading criteria is met. Maybe have it spatter blood on the targeted ship for awhile?

You know you want to.

You know we want it.

Make it so! Big smile

You're a genius.

Never been thought of before, nor posted several times in both GD and the F&I forum.

Rejoice. Briar has an idea.

Thanks, I really enjoyed reading your idea.

You were definitely thinking outside of the box on that one.

Srsly who cares that this has been brought up time and again - does it get old? Should we not storm the Bastille and make it happen? lol

I seem to recall that Ultima Online got hit with a very serious certification issue in the EU when they had corpses you could behead and then display the heads as trophies. That was all in 2D with cartoon blood, and twenty years ago. The certification simply meant they couldn't sell the game in many countries.

It's probable that there is a similar commercial reason for CCP not going too far down that route. Also, Ewwww.

no need for a new module, just add biomass and livestock to the charge groups for the festival launcher.
think of em as meaty fireworks.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

I just want to strap them to the front of my ships.

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Bitter? No. I love this game; and the forum. Half of what I write isn't meant to be taken seriously. The other half is straight up bullshit most of the time.

With the news about the Kyonoke zombie virus getting out, that would make for a rather special kind of warfare. Probably generate more salt than EWAR does. Twisted

Basically this. I can't agree more.

The above message presents my opinions on the topic at hand. If there is a conflict between my views and reality, consider reality to be correct until proven otherwise.

Why would they care about commercial reasons? You make a game that is for adults and childrens will play it nonetheless. See GTA5.

Seeing as how I've been collecting corpses for a while now... yes, I fully support this idea.

And allowing us to pose the corpses inside our 'walking in stations' would be... icing on the cake.
