Abe Weilding A Weapon

[M.O.M]

In the games do you think we will see Abe using any other weapon apart from his possesion and slapping abilities?

[Xavier]

I hope never
that would spoil the sprit
Abe is "smart" enough to don't need a weapon

[QuanTep]

Abe doesnt need a weapon, you just possess a big bro slig with a blitz packer and that'll get the job done.

[M.O.M]

both very true ideas but still even Abe can get in a tough spot!

alf said once Abe wouldn't use any industrial weapon... and I don't think he will use native ones

[M.O.M]

Oh....I never knew that...I wonder why he wont use a native.....maybehe thinks he is too clumsy!

[Xavier]

well he don't need them, why use and carry a weapon when you don't need it?
Abe is smart and powerfull enough

[M.O.M]

two more good points, it looks as though i was wrong!


close this topic if you want to!

[Xavier]

there is no reason to close it
some other members can give their ideas

[M.O.M]

thats why i said close it if you want!

Abe is completly against the use of using any "real" form of weapontry, aside from possession and the occasional spear (spoocebow, etc.) to help catch food for himself, you'll never see Abe weilding a wepon against another. However he dose tend to use them when he's possessed someone.

[Xavier]

oddsville, abe usually use grenades in the abe games, it is a weapon, no?

[Oddsville]

Good point Xav I completley forgot about thoughs. Hmmmmm...... well in an Old interview I read with Lorne he stated that Abe is completley against the use of industrial wepontry except for when he uses them in possession? I guess he forgot about grenades?

Oh well, sorry about that Xavier.

[Xavier]

don't worry, lets say it's an exception
and it isn't the same kind of weapon as a gun or something like that

[BigBro]

It would probably be better if we just left Abe with his possession abilities. Giving him a native or industrial weapon would make the game too easy, apart from the grenade, which I consider a tool.

[Xavier]

you get my point BigBro... glad you understood the principe

[M.O.M]

GRENADES iforgot about them...I think BigBro is right in saying they are a tool!

Glad someone appreciates something Ive said for once.

You should have a choice whether to wield a weapon or not...

hey sounds like a good idea... but I wont choose to carry one

[Mojo]

I think farts are weapons too...
Or... Are they like 'Nades? Yeah, they are like grenades, rite??

[M.O.M]

true his farts are used a s a weapon as well. In fact he uses a lot of weapons!!

[BigBro]

Well, thats true, in a way. Lets take a look at what we have:

• Rocks- used to blow up mines and other explosive devices
• Grenades- used to get rid of Sligs or other enemies in certain situations
• Farts- exploration, or getting rid of enemies
• Levers & Rings- for opening doors, etc. Not really a weapon, but they do things that kill enemies in times of need
• Possession- Abe possesses certain things which could be considered weapons, but for intensive purposes only

And theres probably a few other things on MO that I dont know about yet, so someone else can outline them.

So, in retrospect, I consider things that Abe uses as tools or aides, not really weapons.

[Xavier]

well in MO the are bonekegs (or something like that) some huge bombs, but it is also concidered as tool

[BigBro]

Kewl, is that it?

[Xavier]

*looks into manual*

Bonepowder Keg, that's it
full of mudokon bone powder, highly explosive

[BigBro]

I meant is that the only "new" thing.

[Xavier]

there are more new things but you can't concider them as "weapons" or "deadly tools"

[BigBro]

What, all the Vendo things? Yeah, I know about most of them.

[Xavier]

well the vendos are simply usefull boosts only the Zap is aggressive, it allows Munch to zap ennemys with his headport

but I dunno if this can be concidered as a weapon
