hello. im Fearlesses brother. he didnt tell me about his idea so i have just read it now.
i feel i could add a little to the idea.
People are questioning how would you targe and shoot, and another guy said it would be kewl to use 2 beams on one person. well
when you select. i.e. scroll with your mouse button, or press the coresponding number, your crosshair changes to something that makes you slect. (for now i will use the standard windows mouse) and some text appears anbove your weaon selecion box saying.
Opponent 1: (The name of the person your targetting appears here, when you click on them. (like in the scouter)
Opponent 2The name of the person your targetting appears here, when you click on them (like in the scouter)
you then click on either two different people or click your two targets on the one guy. (giving your double beam to one guy)
i.e. you click on a guy (like melee) and a red box goes around him (also like melee) and his name appears next to the Opponent 1 in the HUD.
you then click on a second guy and a red box goes around him (also like melee) and his name appears next to the Opponent 2 in the HUD.
Or you simply click on the same guy twice, and his name appeas in both Opponent 1 and Opponent 2 on the hud.
after selecting your enemie's your crosshair changes back to the fire mode, and you then hold left mouse button to charge the two Beams, and fire. These would then home onto there target.
The pros of this would be being able to use 2 beams to try and Power struggle. and being able to fire at 2 people at once
The Cons are that you can only turn around while selecting, and cant move. the Beams would suck more Ki out of you.
Also if the ESF team were feeling in extra hard work mode, they could add a secondary fire that simply, charged the two beams up, and fired them like a standard beam in wich you control manually where it goes.
The advantage of this is that its quicker, (so for quick power struggles)
the disadvantage is that you are basically only fireing two beams straight ahead, and cannot lock on to 2 different targets.
And you have to manually aim them.
thx

P.s. when firing in secondary mode (straight ahead) the beams should loop around each other for a cool effect.
p.s.s I know this is different to my brothers original idea, but it may be slightly simpler to implement.
