Rebel231 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Please make one of the mace attacks a mace throw. Like when Thor throws the hammer, and find a way to add a shield throw as well like when Captain America throws his shield constantly.

biostem Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 The only issue is that what you throw wouldn't necessarily use the geometry of the actual weapon/shield you're wielding, since power animations are essentially separate entities. It'd have to be a generic disc and mace-like object that was thrown... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megajoule Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I believe this was brought up back in the live era, and the above was the exact reason cited for why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now that I think about it, that's probably why they went with the shield charge power instead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haijinx Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Back during live they were also concerned with avoiding things like direct Thor clones and direct Captain America clones. Less of an issue now I guess since I teamed with three different Aquaman clones on the same day >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, since shield defense is a completed set already, it'd have to go somewhere else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see it bouncing from enemy to enemy, and then back to the player who "threw" it, but there's so many animation issues that would have to be addressed first that I'm pretty sure this isn't possible without some major combat engine changes.

Gorgar Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 This would seem pretty immersion-breaking to me. Why would my mace come back after I throw it? Am I carrying a bag of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap pulls it off though I guess. Not sure how you hit someone after you throw your mace at them either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
