I intend to!

oh lol

When? MR4 or 5?

MR4

Will it be in MR5 to use?

Dunno. I'll decide that when I'm starting MR5.

OK.

dont u need it to kill the black scorcerer?

Good point.

Yea, but he could have left it back at the flat in MR5, and then he fetched it later.

steve theres one thing i don't understand. in mr2
scarlet said the the gun bulits were in level 3 (mr3) but then we find out that is not in the game . whys that

Berlin finds them in MR3, you have to watch the script that happens if you look at the TV after you've rescued Berlin to find that out though.

It's a bit hidden I admit.

I caught that.
The Gloden machine gun should come back.
Merlin's memory can't be THAT bad....

Well, he is...what was it, 416 or something?

412 - close

for the begining of mr4, merlin could be fighting his way back to the flat(towers of aldevar)to get the gmg, which has also been overrun with monsters

the golden machine gun should just be used for the greand fanaly against the black sorcerer!

I agree - well the gmg with the bullets in at any rate.

Yea, bring it back for MR4. Maybe at the beginning Ulin could turn up and say he'd gone to fetch it and someone had stolen it, then you later find it in an out-of-the way, hard to get to part of the map guarded by a giant skeleton (which sketch made, y'know)

yeah the gmg wouldn't be so good with out the golden bullets.

i hope theres a merin 5 ^^

There will be unless Steve dies or something.

he better not. hey steve you should take the gmg so that no one can kill you. and the bullets...

I think a truely awesome weapon would be the GMG and the Energy Pulse spell. I can see it now...

(harp music and fade to dreamscape)

Merlin mowing down a ton of whoevers with a hail of energy bullets!

(returns to reality)

In conclusion, the Lemonade Skeleton's gonna get you all.

Red Runner: As my friend would say...
Gnye...gnye *backing away into corner*

is that a skeleton that sells lemonade on warm, summer days?

yes, the gmg would be awesome. Image all of the mines you could make. >.> <.<

I like it better with the Energy Beam. It sure is fun to run around impersonating Star Wars characters.

maybe it would be a cool fight against the black scorcerer if he steals the gmg in a cutscene when you enter his arena.

And let Merlin kill every wizard in sight? I think not!

It was bound to happen.

they should bring back the energy beam thing from mr2

topic - GMG + energy mines = hellspreader (big no no)

the mines were a little bit overpowered as it was. if you got the GMG and the mines..... lol

you could 'paint' a line of mines, or a wall of mines just by sweeping you mouse across the screen... totally unfair, at least without the GMG you have to click a lot for those godly mines.
i've also found that you can use the mines to corner and mass kill anything... (1x stacked black golems being continually smashed into the wall by mines placed 1/2 an inch out)

The gmg would be equal to the death star if it had the energy beam, or the mines.

It needs the energy beam.

Gnorthan. I understand that you want the energy beam back but remember how it made the end of Merlin's Revenge 2 way too easy?

well, to continue the death star analogy, Gnorthan remembers that it was blown to pieces .

Gnorthans point is that the laser did have its Achilles heel (Bugs and other small enemies).

Or we could just include a larger amounts of brute force.

I miss the beam as well, it was OP, but I still like it. Maybe put it in as a cheat?

Nah it would make it WAY too easy because obviously people would be using it all the time.

Why not just use the 'gigantic lazor' suggestion then?

Oh ya. I forgot about that one.

It can't get easier than pushing "K"...

It would at least be more fun than insta-killing everything.

Ya when you press "k" it ruins all the fun.

I've now got parts of this to work. You can now collect the golden machine gun, and it will change your sprite, and cause you to charge from the side. Still to do: autofire, on/off, display.

Good luck on that. Can't wait to see the GMG in full form!

It was almost there :(

...and then director erred/quit without saving.

I need to save more often. Its still roughly halfway there.

Aww! I had that happen with my six page history essay, which was nearing completion...

I lost it all though:/

Director is extremely unstable. I got into the habit of saving before pressing play every time.

Finito!

...and done better the second time!

I think some time still needs to go into all the displayers for the top left bars and such, so they can set where the displayer appears by which gets collected first(a wizard or a gmg, or whatever else gets found, say... a tea set)

Did you find the it took a lot less time to re-write than you expected? I think that shows that a lot of programming time is spent figuring out what to do. Once you know, you can be very quick.

Indeed! and I think I did it nicer than the first time!

You guys are awesome. Always trying to make it the best and perfect. ;)

I think there's a bug with saving the gmg.

I'll fix that right up!
