when update for weapons, just asking.

[☪Al3xM3rc3r0✠]

i heard is not gonna be add for "violence" purpose.

[Princess Goddammit]

Hope not. The whole space shooter thing has been done to death. Nothing against violence, mind you, I like to pew pew along with everyone else but this is about science, orbital mechanics, building and exploration. Plenty of the old shoot-em-up stuff out there without turning this one into just another game of glourified laser tag.

guns, about sienence too, you know ?

A semi realistic portrayal of how the US and soviet union could have weaponized space would be pretty interesting ngl

No thanks, BD armory is annoying enough for KSP. If this game is going to succeed KSP id rather not have the annoying military plane spam that is prevalent over there. It takes next to 0 creativity or knowledge to strap a rocket to a cone and call it a missile, or make a plane with guns on it. It takes real effort to do real aerospace missions.

Look, lets be reasonable:

First, there are plenty of missiles of one description or another already available (as craft files). This is a common Vizzy programming exercise, for those who are interested.

Second, there is not anything in the game to shoot at, unless you place it there. Unless you are willing to write a Vizzy pilot then you are always going to be shooting at stationary targets (that you have to manually place). I totally fail to see the attraction of this.

Finally, nothing is stopping you (or someone else) from either porting BD Armory to Juno or writing something that is functionally equivalent. It is much less necessary in the Juno context (with Vizzy, missiles are possible without modding, and bombs are trivial, even lasers can be done via Vizzy (although I don't know if anyone has done it yet), so the only thing to add is guns), but someone could do it.

The only reason that I would see adding such functionality to the game would be if they also added multiplayer. If this is a stealthy way for asking for multiplayer then... Maybe you should just ask for that?

i dont understand naysayers , it can simply be a toggle for those who want it lol.

[ActivateWindows]

its not the highest priority (its probably one of the lowest) for the devs so it will probably not come for a long while, there is a basic weapons mod on the website tho

[thaflya]

Take a look on "Children of a dead earth". Thats a quite realistic simulation of space fights with acurate orbital physic.

[Anarcho Pup Girl Ⓐ⚧]

never, hopefully

[TomKerbal]

No, there are enough wargames out there (which I also use(d)) praizing war. War is SH**T . Good to have some different games reminding us of that.

[NiceGuy]

Never ever will there be weapons in this game. If you are looking forward to space war, just notice that here it's nothing to be seen, better leave and move on.

Why? Its optional, and its not like its multiplayer.

War itself and the suffering that it causes is sh_t, but Weapons and Machines/Equipment are cool and exhilarating, so does blowing stuff up.

AFAIK, Juno isn't getting weapons. If you want to experience truly realistic space combat, I'd highly recommend Children of a Dead Earth:

CoaDE gets extra points in my book because you can not only create your own drones/ships/stations/whatever out of components, you get to design the components themselves too! Think you can make a better nuclear reactor, laser, or railgun? This game lets you (if you obey the laws of physics and engineering). Want to make a ship with a railgun that fires drones that deploy even smaller drones that launch missiles? This game lets you (if they're small enough to fit inside each other).

To be fair, CoaDE has a few small bugs and will slow down if you have hundreds of missiles/ships flying around, but those issues are pretty minor. If you play JuNO or KSP, then you're probably already comfortable with a little jankiness. Compared to them, the biggest hurdle would probably be CoaDE's utter devotion to realism - in every aspect, the science/physics is much more "hard"/realistic than in JuNO or KSP: Crew will die if you accelerate or spin them too fast; material stats are all taken from chemistry textbooks; and component design equations are all from papers by NASA and such. Personally, I love stuff like that.

lol,what is the pacifists thread? weapons would be a great add to the game.
