20080109 Flavor Weapons Logic Change

BoboTalkClown 22:22, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion type
Weapons change

Suggestion scope
Players with baseball bats and hockey sticks

Suggestion description
The baseball bat currently does 2 damage. The implementation of this suggestion means it also does 3. My reasoning is that you can as hard with a baseball bat as you do with a hockey stick/cricket bat already, so let's keep our logic contiguous, if not concrete. Also, it will help consumer n00bs, and only marginally hurt zombies, so vote keep. Please?

Keep Votes

  1. Author Kill- This is a terrible suggestion! Wait, am I allowed to do this? BoboTalkClown 22:22, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  2. Keep - Batter Up!!!--GunFox13 22:41, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Keep - Home Run! --Hhal 22:42, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  4. Keep - I can't see anything wrong with this. Helps new players a bit.--SeventythreeTalk 22:44, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  5. Keep - nobody uses hockey sticks or baseball bats much anyways--Zach016 23:57, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  6. Week Keep- I won't mind.. --Darth LumisT! A! E! SR 00:41, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  7. Keep It makes sense.  Nalikill  TALK  E!  W!  M!  USAI  00:55, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  8. Keep - My reasoning is how often blunt weapons are used in zombie movies to great effect. When do you see hockey sticks?--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 02:42, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  9. Keep Oh Noeses! Home Runs aren't as powerful as hitting a puck! This makes sense... And you all know how much of an advocate of making sense I am... ~A`Blue`JellyTME*V*I*L*? 05:09, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  10. Keep - And the spam voters need to receive a good whack with a bat. --Heretic144 05:21, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  11. Keep - Personally, I can do a lot of damage with a baseball bat in real life. So here's to a buff. --Private Mark 15:37, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  12. Keep - Nobody really uses baseball bats because of the low accurcy so making the damage go up one, wouldn't hurt. --The Gecko PKer 17:35, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  13. Keep - Beat on the brat, beat on the brat, beat on the brat with a HOCKEY STICK!?!? NO! --Howard Bentley 02:52, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
  14. Keep - Whenevr I see an improvised sports weapon, it's always a baseball bat. Plus, feild hockey is only taught to females in my school. What does this say? I'm sexist. UCFSD 17:00, 15 January 2008 (UTC)


Kill Votes

  1. Kill - If it's designed to help consumer noobs it fails its own logic test. Why don't they just get a hockey stick? - Iscariot 23:30, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
    RE:They can't get in to a mall. No Free Running. BoboTalkClown 16:41, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  2. Kill - Since the hockey sticks are field hockey sticks, they're far denser than a bat. Realistically it would be easier to take out a zombie since the weapon has less surface area, and is less clumsy. --Ciaran Deckardson 23:45, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Kill - As the people who voted spam.Studoku 01:25, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
    Kill - You need to turn up the encumbrance too. ~Ariedartin • Talk • A KS J abt all Struck with incorrect sig (no timestamp). --Funt Solo QT Scotland flag.JPG 19:38, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  4. Kill - Lower density + greater surface area = less damage. --Z. slay3r •  Talk  21:41, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  5. Kill - would only make sense if we increased fire axe damage, which I don't see happening--CorndogheroT-S-Z 16:56, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
  6. Kill - I don't see why such a change is needed - I don't think I've ever even used a baseball bat or half the melee weapons to be honest. --Ryiis 14:53, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
  7. Kill - No, this is the same as your last post except minus the stupid logic and plus that pitiful please at the end. This is useless. No one uses baseball bats. It would just be a change for niche players, and that's never been looked well upon. --Vandurn 23:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
  8. Kill - As mentioned before, field hockey sticks are much heavier than your standard one. As for the cricket bats, I've always figured that survivors were sharpening the ends and hitting zombies with that. But there isn't really a way sharpen or otherwise justify more damage for a baseball bat. Try this suggestion with another weapon and I might vote keep. --Reaper with no name TJ! 14:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
  9. Kill- How about this, survivors have no need for such a buff, also I don't follow your on logic in the description: "My reasoning is that you can as hard with a baseball bat as you do with a hockey stick/cricket bat already", you "can as hard with a baseball bat" what? -- BKM 04:22, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
  10. Kill - Unnecessary change to gameplay mechanics. Fire axes exist for a reason.  Billy Club Thorton  T!  RR  04:32, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
  11. Kill - I'm with the others. It's unnecessary because we have fire axes. --Diano 20:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)


Spam/Dupe Votes

  1. Why? WHY? WHY?--Thekooks 23:31, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
    Dupe Too close to this suggestion. Pick one or the other. (My first time voting dupe, I think. WOO!) --Ms.Panes 23:49, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
    The other suggestion has been removed, so I am removing my dupe vote. --Ms.Panes 05:12, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
    Non-author re discussion moved to talk page. --Funt Solo QT Scotland flag.JPG 01:36, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  2. Spam - the baseball bat weighs half that of a hockey stick, so it does 1 less damage. It's balanced. Leave it alone. --Funt Solo QT Scotland flag.JPG 23:52, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Spam - It's the only blunt weapon that has 2% encumbrance. It doesn't need a damage boost. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 00:26, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  4. Spam - Simply put, baseball bats cant deliver as much of a whack as a hockey stick or cricket bat. This is accurately reflected in the game. Im sorry, but whining wont magically make the facts change. --The Grimch U! E! WAT! 00:34, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  5. Spam - I say Grim's argument is wrong from having hit people with both, but really I don't care enough, it's a flavor weapon the damage it does doesn't matter, it's all about the text it sends to the person who is attacked.--Karekmaps?! 00:41, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  6. Spam - As above -Downinflames 01:06, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  7. Spam - As above Omega 01:07, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  8. Spam - wording is still crap, and as above.--'BPTmz 05:47, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  9. Spam - Fine as is. --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 06:46, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  10. SAPAM - What damage should a fire axe do??? --Honestmistake 13:25, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  11. No Thank You - I'm Razzled by your Frazzle... --==--/~Rakuen~\ 00:20, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
  12. I am on a voting spree, but to make this vote valid, I'm in agreement with those above. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:50, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
