Yo Dawg i heard you like A-class, so...I made it :?

 

Hi guys! Early i thinking about ability based on heat/overheat, so i finally can made somthing not bad. I am introducing you - Melter. Numbers just for example. Main purpose - bring to you a mech gameplay concept, chassis appearance, and a new secondary weapon HERK-Launcher with two modes of shooting.  And maybe some fun. (babaji english included!)

 

 

Melter Lore:

Spoiler

 

 

Melter in Hawken:

The basic idea - a wily support-mech for close combat, with the primary weapon that has a good DPS. Since Melter always strives to overheat his enemy, his primary weapon should provide him with a more or less decent damage, as at this time his secondary weapon does not deal damage. However, if he can overheat the enemy, he just shoot him until it cools.
At the same time, firing HERK-Launcher in the GLK mode (grenades), he can give a good damage to the enemy, not much inferior to other A-class mechs.

 

1) Full Melter Art (HERK in GLK mode (Grenades mode))

2) Melter without RFSM gun (HERK in M/MRC mode (overheating mode))

3) Melter Elite-Chassis

UyPuZvp.jpg

 

4) Melter standart chassis with GLK

0f8GEjd.jpg

 

5) And Melter standart chassis with M/MRC

Q3j03Oa.jpg

 

 

Melter Stats:

 

Armor: 345

 

Fuel tank: 96

 

Fuel regen: 10.5

 

Boost speed: 34.7

 

Walking speed: 20

 

Air speed: 33

 

Radar: 115 m

 

Overheat time: 5.5 sec.

 

 

Melter Weapons:

 

Primary Weapons:

 

1) Default primary: RFSM gun - rapid-firing machine gun. Similar to SMC. In fact, I could not think of anything unusual here, so I just painted it. If you have any ideas about high radip fire machinegun, you can offer them.
2) Alternative primary: Assault Rifle

3) Elite primary: Mini-Flak
 

Secondary weapon: HERK Launcher

 

First Mode (GLK) - shoots grenades like Korsair-KLA. The projectile detonates on contact with the surface. Have the same DPS / Damage.

 

Second mode (M/MRC) - a heat-beam, working only at a short distance (55-60 meters), which does not deal damage, but transports your heat to your enemy. (Some amount of heat for every second). Ideally M/MRC could completely overheat enemy mech from 0 to 100 after 15 seconds. if it is stationary and does not shoot. Heating Effect does not summary if two Melters trying to overheat the one targ?t (for the balance reasons...)

 

 

Melter Ability: Afterheat

Afterheat - increases your "rate of fire" by 5% and + 1% for every 10 heat that you have right now on 9 seconds. If Melter is in a state of overheating at the time of ability activation, you will receive only 5%. Ability cooldown - 45 or 50 sec.

 

This means that if you have 60 of heating while you activate ability, you will receive a 5% + 6% = 11% bonus "rate of fire".

The maximal rate of which you can get with 99 heat, 5% + 9% = 14% bonus "rate of fire". (because 100 heat = overheat)

 

how it works on battlefield?

imagine that you are fighting with the enemy, and have approximately ~60-70 heat. Then you come closer to enemy, and switch your HERK-Launcher mode M/MRC (heat transfer mode), activate your "Afterheat" ability, and start redirect your current heat into the enemy, causing the enemy to overheat and cooled themselves.

 

It's look like this:

zFOSgce.jpg

 

 

Several gameplay thoughts:

 

The Melter is likely to be a counter-mech against Incinerator with PPA, because Inci is always balanced on 80-90% of heating. A sudden attack with M/MRC could immediately overheat the enemy incinerator. And probably, slow and heavy mech like brawler, who overheat fast while shooting and have a big overheating time.

Also, Assault, G2-Assalt and TV-mech probably a counter-mechs against Melter. Because if their have a abilities, it can make a M/MRC mode totally useless.

 

 

Melter Thrusters: Krona

1)

Melter Repair-Drone: ...

Well, I think that's done. While my internet not working a two week, i also maded a new B-class with interest ability, i bring it later when i writing some story for it...

 

Edit: mistakes...

I also tried to add some "bold design/decoration". I'm inspired by the ideas of the "Figereheads" game and our current colorful "ascension-design"

Which is why we need a mech that's bottom-heavy. And screw articulating legs, the wheel is where it's at.

Srs, all your designs are on-point and that perfect kind of ugly-beautiful.  I would still use your TOAD chassis over any other A-class frame.

thats my point. make a fun stuff for people.

 

I very much hope that the developers will soon begin to make new stuff. (I do not mean myself, I'm talking about the continuation of the ADH work and ideas).

Although it would be nice to see something similar in the game. I like how it made a warframe developers. They take the general idea/art from the players on the forum, process/change it (to balance issues), and make a new model based on this appearance, which is similar to the player
drawing, but redone by professional 3D-modellers to the needs of the game. it's nice.

I think OP's intent with this post was to share Hawken-inspired art, lore, and specifications, rather than an official suggestion to integrate his concept into the game. That probably means that if this post was going to be moved anywhere, it'd be in Art and Media. However, if this was originally posted in Art and Media then ~75% fewer people would have visited the thread - assuming most people are like me and never visit anything other than General Discussions. With that in mind I think it's fine leaving this post in General Discussions unless someone can make a compelling reason to move it other than "It fits better somewhere else".

i can.

 

1) the first reason.

early (when ADH was alive) i post such posts in suggestion section, but when they stop added new mechs, i start throw it in general discussion that the community may have looked into the topic and received a charge of good mood.

and if it possible to raise the interest of people to the game and to the forum. nothing more.

 

2) the second reason.

and i'm a babaji spammer :D

 

 

it's actually not a big deal in which section i place this.

That's correct forum section for such solid good job. Well done. Devs should implement such mech. It would be another unique mech - kind of similar to incinerator but inverted, instead of another pew pew.

actually, first version of this mech (on my paper) was a G2-incinerator. But early some people don't like the ideas with G2 (i mean brawler) so i trying to made it like different mech.

Look, another box on legs!  Looks like good ol' Fred found a younger brother that somewhat has an ability similar to what he does.  CAN I HAVE TWO OF THESE BEAUTIES?   Incinerator was supposed to be my flammenwerfer mech but it just shoots fireballs. :|  It's pretty, but I like long streams of flame more.  :wub:

Boy, I like that concept of causing enemies to overheat instead of dealing damage to them. +1.

 

Honestly though, I think this would much better be suited as a G2-Incinerator instead of a standalone mech due to the similarities with the Incinerator.
