NO Muskets/Blunderbusses/Cannons/Medieval weapons in Tekkit from the new update.


Recommended Posts

  • Look, i don't want to hate on the makers of Tekkit, but the problem with this is that now our ranged weapons have devolved down to vanilla minecraft weapons at best, which do nothing compared to all the melee aspects they have with the nano and quantum armors, how am i supposed to at least defend myself from a distance greater than point blank when arrows don't even do much damage and the people can easily just side step out of the way of an arrow coming at them, please, help support this in saying we either want muskets/ranged weapons back including the cannons or give us something better like rifles, pistols, and artillery cannons. we need to be able to defend ourselves from a distance before we all charge in with nanosabers in hand.
    The entire article can be summarized down to this:

    Tekkit in the 3.0.3 has taken away muskets and other long ranged weapons from the arsenals of minecraft players

    We need something long ranged to at least defend ourselves before we get locked in melee combat with someone who could easily tear through us if we were not well equipped

    Muskets were available in the older version, but the newer version includes some intresting industry components i would like to keep as well

Solution : Bring back Muskets as well as keeping the new stuff in as well and see if not the muskets and cannons, then a more advanced version of the muskets and other arms, because we would sure love rifles or more advanced weapons along the lines of guns and good ranged weapons (besides the mining laser which is really sort of overpowered as is)

Please help get this message across

(on the side i was planning on building a WW1 scenario map, but without the cannons or muskets or any base rifles, its pretty much dead in the water and i would love to see it being able to be used with the new alarm systems in place and i don't want to go through the hassle of splicing through tekkit to try and keep that idea afloat)

:w00t:

Considering Balkon's Weapon mod (aka muskets n' shit) was removed for purely technical reasons, I'm not exactly sure why you are so upset. I also love it when people speak for others. You are not a 'we' and as such I can't very well assume you speak for the thousands of other players out there.

Sorry we're ruined your map idea, but I'm not really sure what you want to be done. Balkon's this time around was detrimental to server stability, performance, and efficiency. So its out.

If you are in such great need of weapons you can download the Guns+ plugin for bukkit. It allows you to create your own graphics, sound and settings for guns. You can make anything from a crossbow to a bazooka.

Sorry I ment can the developers put it in. I know it isn't in the pack at the moment

i would personally hate that.....i just hate modern weapons, that would make all the melee weapons useless...

i do miss the weapons mod but i think they still can add another mod to fill that hole in future updates....

You can install the guns plus plugin for bukkit. Since the technic launcher is a fork of spout your users don't need to do anything. It allows you to COMPLETELY customize your guns, from firing rate, to reload rate, to crafting recipes, to textures and sounds. You can even make smoke appear when you fire, or slow down while holding a gun in your hand. Its very simple too!

hey man i agree we should get a wide range of weapons to chose from i mean come it would make the game hard and easy. it really goes both ways and to the people who said they dident like the idea thats fine its your choice to make not to lay with them and it is your right to speak your opinions, However it is also our right to do so and if i offend you i am sorry but look at it this way if they do put gun or cannons or what ever in the game and you dont like it either play on a server where you cant use them or get your own and dont let people use them on there its that simple just because you dont want them in the game doesnt mean there ARE OR ARE NOT at least 1000 people out there who would want to see it happen.

Wow.. Nice necro you've got there. The weapons are already back, and have been for 2 months.
