>>741784476is that shit heated or what?also, why would you heat it?
bwuuuu duhuh
>takes 3-5 business days to reloadill pass
plap plap plap
>>741784575It is, and the only thing worse than having a chunk of rebar in your chest, is having a red hot chunk of rebar in your chest.
>>741784476>Super heated rebarI feel like the heating was overkill.
>instead of a sniper rifle here's a crossbowLame
>>741784930>Not using the suit zoom trick

>>741785456was about to post this. gj anon
>>741784929They had to explain why it blows up the barrels
>>741784476This wouldn't work irl, right? Not even talking about heating, rebar is heavy as shit, it shouldn't shoot far at all.
>>741784828That's if you get hit in the chest, won't it being hot just cauterize the wound if you get hit in your limbs?
>>741785813why does that matter
>>741785963A red hot chunk of metal in you body is a red hot chunk of metal in you body, cauterization doesn't magically heal you.
>>741785813With a hand set crossbow, hell no. You'd need a rediculously powerful one, and that would require a cranequine to set. A bigger problem is that the rebar would not fly true, that shit would flip like a bitch.
>>741784575It's cherry flavor.
>mmm soup
>>741786682True that, that's why arrows need to be balanced and have fletching.
>>741785813The heating is ironically the most realistic part. The crossbow would use inductive heating.
>>741785813It actually can heat up, but it wouldn't even be able to penetrate anything because rebar that hot would just bend on contacthttps://youtu.be/0nLT_bEaLlY?si=gEFnJjm3yFxL-pIP (skip to 18:45)
>>741787829Given the sparks when you set it in the rail, it's pretty clearly using resistive heating. Which is kinda stupid, because it's iron, and while not the best conductor it's still pretty good. Your idea would be better, but both solutions would require a backpack battery to be feasible, and the induction hardware would add even more bulk.
>>741787254i grin almost every time.just getting into the citadel at the end of HL2VR currently, 2nd VR playthrough and god knows how many times overall
>>741788536At least it wasn't a suit power mechanic.
>>741786682oh for sure realistically that thing is just going to clatter on the ground 30ft in front of you, after launching up at a 45 degree angle
>>741784476Can you hear it?
>>741788929KPAK
>>741788536>sparks when you set it in the railAh, right. I haven't played HL2 in ages, but I can remember that now.
>>741788929I can hear the slide desu senpai.
