Swapping Weapons!

[V3getar1anCarr0t]

What if you just killed a fleet overseer with a default sword (who would anyway ._.) wouldn't it be nice to drop your sword and replace it with the overseer's?

Or maybe your sword got knocked out of your hands whilst fighting, you might want to grab the sword behind you that the Mk3 Sword Robot you killed dropped earlier. . .

Or maybe you are against some hammer bots and your sword flies out of your hands due to swinging it too much. . .

Tell me what you think!

It's very easy to kill an overseer with a default sword.
You slice them in the chest right after it fires its laser.

One shot. One kill.

true

But who would have a default sword by the time the overseer shows up (titanium, I think)

[Enderspoons]

One of the best ways.

Hmm, I doubt the human robot has butter-fingers and would drop the sword (they're a robot), but picking up weapons would be nice.

Do you mean that you can pick up weapons to skip upgrades or just dropping it? I think there could be an attack like fists if you drop your sword.

Yes, you can skip upgrades, and when you're weaponless, you are dead unless you have kick or another weapon

Why even have upgrades if you can skip them. Dogrobog would remove many upgrades if you could just lose them.

to be honest, why not just make some weapons, like boss weapons switch-able? like for example, you kill the overseer, you get an upgrade that gives you the overseers sword. this would be cool because then we could add new bosses each with diffrent weapons! say, a boss with a bow or hammer!

Why not a boss that uses a hammer to shoot bows.

Why remove upgrades???

This is an interesting idea, but I dissagree, because you would need to add a new feature of weapons being knocked out of hands, and I don't really think thats a good idea. You would be able to just skip upgrades by picking something up.

Exactly why we don't want it put in, because it would make the vast majority of the upgrade tree defunct and unnecessary. Plus, it would break upgrade progression.

Yeah, I agree with Enderspoons.
