-First off yes I know its been suggested, but you can't pass this up. I've already got ideas for how it would work, ect. And an axe model replacement? No, the axe isn't like a chainsaw.
-Second off, weren't you guys already putting a chainsaw in the next beta?
Thats what I heard.... well heres my idea anyways:

Ok, I am not suggesting just a chainsaw. Not any old chainsaw....
But an actual new weapon specificly melee and with a spinning chain blade system which uses gas as ammo.

Imagine this... replace the gas canister with (or add) a gasoline can. This is the ammo for the chainsaw. Imagine the chainsaw from Unreal Tournament...

Ammo is consumed on how long you attack/how many attacks. If you save the ammo you can throw the gasoline can into the fire or shoot it to explode, just like it already is in the game!!!
Primary attack is spin the blade so you cut anything you walk into, secondary is a horzontal slash which 75% decapitates any living being at close range.

OK, so yeah a chainsaw was already suggested, but why not?
It's a frickin zombie mod, right!?

Haha, you went through alot of trouble for this.

I think it would be cool if the chainsaw took up not one, but BOTH your primary weapon slots so your only ranged weapon would be a pistol.

its a great idea, but you said take the unreal tournoment chainsaw, and i dont think thats legal, anyhow i like the idea, and many people has a chainsaw in their garage, and i have one, and its realistic, but then i think you would need like 15 skill for it, becuse its gonna be good rigth? and no xp gaining.

*Waits for Immoral*
Good idea, but yes, suggested lots of time before. And having the gas both as ammo and "Grenade" sort of thing would be a bitch to code.

Chainsaw, as you said, has been suggested before. However, if you researched it suffencently, than you would have noticed that tt also garnered enough support to most likely be implemented in the next release. And that it was already going to be powered by gas for "ammo".

QUOTE
If you save the ammo you can throw the gasoline can into the fire or shoot it to explode

Not going to happen, the devs have said that the gas tank will be the only explosive weapon.

QUOTE

I think it would be cool if the chainsaw took up not one, but BOTH your primary weapon slots so your only ranged weapon would be a pistol.

I don't think it would be possible to do that. Logistics of code aside, that makes little sense, if one can carry a minigun and a flamethrower simultanously, I'd hope one could carry a chainsaw in addition to another primary weapon.

QUOTE
and no xp gaining.

Forgive me, but that is just plain dumb, why would the chainsaw not give out experiance? It forces you to get in close which regardless of how you look at it is more dangerous than keeping your distance. Just because it will be powerful does not mean it should not give experiance. If that was the case, then the sawed off, minigun, and other powerful weapons shouldn't give any experiance.

Erm... The dev team said they WHERE going to implement it anyways.


--------------------
This is what Ive said for the past couple months every time has requested source: BB source is highly unlikely because the mod team (Ironoak) has decided to use the crystal engine to create an rpg, although they have said there is a small chance of going to source but please, for the sake of all mankind, do not request a port and/or create polls, or even useless threads about the porting of BB, because it is most likely not going to happen, thank you for reading.
