muskets : V

» Tue May 17, 2011 3:19 am

after reading wat there doing with incresing the power of the bows for the basicly the one-hit-kill, why dont they just go for it and include low tech firearms? there advancing far enoug h into the future with skrim to allow for use of firearms liek muskets and flint lock pistols. they came close enough in morrowind with crassbows. to avoid ppl taking advantage of it tho they should be relaistic and make it basicly one-hit kill for anything but make it so that it takes forever to relaod. dont get me wrong, im not saying we should have machine guns, but low tech weapons like muslet wouldn't be to bad!

After 2 posts and being torn down about it no I do not want them they would just not fit..........

Sorry dude.

NO!

I second this and add quit asking to it as well. If you want them play on the PC and wait for modders or if you are at that level do it yourself. Honestly so many find it to be unnecessary and all around stupid that it shouldn't even be considered by BGS. If you want it mod it, this isn't really a don't want it don't use it case, it is a this defies all lore in the Elder Scrolls universe.

I do not, and will never, wish to see firearms implemented in the Elder Scrolls series. Ever.

BTW, welcome back, TOG!

No can do. Its better to just reintroduce Crossbow rather than just add in firearms.

And there too many variable/reasons that make such idea of firearm near impossible to add in the Elder Scroll in the first place.

EDIT: Wow, been a while since I saw ya, ThatOneGuy.

One word.

NO.

Muskets? How will I pwn da noobs with a musket? No no, if there's going to be guns in Skyrim, they need to be guns. I will not settle for anything less than a minigun mounted atop an S.U.V. Oh, whoops, I meant a Dwemer minigun mounted atop a Dwemer S.U.V, because everyone knows adding the word Dwemer to something instantly makes it blend perfectly into the TES Universe.

...

... Dwemer cell phones.

so form what im seeing, its mostly for lore reasons why we shouldn't have firearms? i just think thats a little constructing to limit game potential do to the lore. think about it, humans went through the dark aegs too which evolved into the age of sale which brought about the use of the cannon so i cant see how TES isn't gonna evolve into that to in the future.

Firearms in TES? NONONO! :ahhh:

Except that it's TES. It just DOES NOT fit. So basically...

NO.

No, any type of gun should never be in TES.

» Tue May 17, 2011 10:50 am

NO NO NO

» Tue May 17, 2011 5:59 am

um... I don't know if anyone's said this yet, but... no.

» Tue May 17, 2011 11:48 am

Ur forgetting that the tes world doent progress technology wise as fast as as humans and also fantasy doesn't fit with guns and lastly most fantasy fans HATE FPS as u can see above

One cannot compare how the world of Real Life work compare to how a fantasy land in the Elder Scroll. For example, Real Life don't have magic, or that our stars are hole in the sky that give out magic, or that it does not have god interaction like that of from the Elder Scroll.

Lore act as a way to make sure the game does not just add in random things without explanation or junk without reason.

Then its the whole ordeal that one suggest to add in firearm in a Sword and Magic RPG game. Its like suggesting DOOM should start using magic or giving Diablo a makeover graphic that is colorful as like that of My Little Pony.

You got to be kidding...I really hope the devs are not reading this forum and not taking in consideration any (well, most) of the "constructive" ideas in here. We'd end up with a game that is definately NOT TES, with lots or randomly ripped off features from other games.
