Gunslinger' Player-Created Design Chosen: the Mookie Gun


 

In October, Aion asked players to send in their ideas for unique pistols or cannons for the new Gunslinger class--coming in Aion 4.0. Now the player-created design is unveiled: the Mookie Gun, by Liiga Smilshkalne, aka Rakesh from the Israphel server. Below is Liiga's concept art and a video of the Mookie Gun in action.

Here is the interview with Liiga more about her design, her character in Aion, and her other works.

Aion: How long have you been playing Aion? What class and level is your main character?
Liiga: I've been playing Aion on and off for a long time now, though most actively since about 2.5. My main character is Rakesh on server Israphel, a lvl 60 cleric, which is by far my favorite class in the game.

What was your inspiration for the Mookie Gun?
If memory serves me right, the idea for the Mookie Gun sprouted from late night chattering with a friend and legionmate Aedus over the Leave your Legacy announcement that somehow somewhere lead to the idea of a Mookie gun which absolutely stuck. The rest of it came naturally in the wee hours of the morning with the aid of a large cup of coffee.

Why Mookies?
Mookies are by far my favourite type of critter in the game. They're bouncy, have beady little eyes and never open their mouths if they have any, which just means they all hide some terrible terrible secrets inside. Possibly guns. Cheap Aion Kina

How excited were you to find out your design was chosen?
Extremely so! Best e-mail to wake up to in a long time. I've got Mookies on the brain just waiting anxiously to see how the gun will look in action!

We noticed you have a DeviantArt page. Would you like to tell us anything about it? Have you done any other Aion-inspired works?
I'm a freelancing digital painter with most of my currently publishable works on display at http://liiga.deviantart.com. Although most of my paintings fall within the genre of fantasy, I've also done illustrations of the more sci-fi as well as the surreal persuasion, most recently for the Android:Netrunner TCG series by FFG.

Since I usually stay busy with work I've yet to do proper Aion fan art aside from a quick sketch of a legion member's character - and I suppose now also the Mookie gun - but I've done a number of illustrations inspired by another NCSoft game, Lineage 2. Hopefully I'll get a chance to do proper fan art of Aion in the nearest future - the game is just too pretty not to. Buy Aion Gold

Thanks for answering our questions, Liiga, and congratulations on leaving your legacy in Aion! We hope everyone will look forward to the Mookie Gun!

Diablo 3 Team Deathmatch shelved, PvP dueling to debut in patch 1.07



(1)


      If you've been anxiously awaiting Team Death match mode in Diablo III, you should probably stop. In a blog update posted today by lead designer Jay Wilson, he confirms that the mode (which has been playable at past Blizz Cons, even before Diablo III’s release) is currently “not up to the quality that Blizzard gamers expect or that we feel you deserve” and that “we will be shelving it for now and exploring other options.”

    The good news is that simple PvP dueling is scheduled for inclusion in the 1.07 patch, which Wilson vaguely claims will “hit sometime after the new year.” In other words, at least eight months after Diablo III’s launch.

    In regards to Team Death match, Wilson bluntly says that the mode, in its current form, lacks depth. He explains that testers found that “simply fighting each other with no other objectives or choices to make gets old relatively quickly” and that most “didn't feel like it was something they’d want to do beyond a few hours.” He goes on to say that, though Team Death match could still see be released “in some form,” the team has gone back to the drawing board to look “at new modes that play up to the strengths of the character classes, focus on objectives beyond just defeating other players, and possibly even integrate PvE elements and rewards.” Wilson also assures that whatever mode ultimately replaces Team Death match will be released as a free update.  buy diablo gold cheap

    If you played Team Death match at a past BlizzCon, do you agree with Blizzard’s decision? And what kind of meatier mode would you like to see replace it?
