In time.
I think Bungie needs to do the same with kinetic fusion rifles that they did with trace rifles. The code for the weapons is probably exclusive to exotic weapons. So they need to add the abiltty to make legendary kinetic fusions into the game from scratch.

I don’t know for sure but I’m assuming weapon code is very flexible (could very easily be wrong) but I think bungie biggest hold up on making weapons comes from actually designing and coding said design into the game, including reload animation, sound effects, things like that. I’m pretty sure weapon functionality is a very cookie cutter part of it that doesn’t really care about weapon grade and element.

TheArtistにより編集済み: 12/27/2021 5:00:51 PMI think its the exact opposite. I think the creative aspects of weapon design are the easy part....the coding is the hard part and probably has lots of "spaghetti code" issues at this point. Which is why Telesto always breaking something in the game has become a meme.

Nope it won't happen. Bungie is almost never candid about the limits imposed on them by their tools. The only reason I thought of it is because I've been here long enough to see the patterns in what they do. Bungie seems to have a easy time turning legendary weapons into exotics. Especially if they are added to the game at the same time. So we quickly got (or got at the same time) exotic bows, swords, smgs, etc..... But going from exotics to legendaries seems to be a bigger problem. And getting weapons to move from one slot to another also seems to be an issue. Trace rifles were part of the game for years before we finally got a legendary version....and it doesn't **quite** work the same as the exotics. (But close enough to have fun with). They've also been slow to added special weapons to the kinetic slot. When asked about moving Linear Fusion rifles to the special slot as a way of dealing with them being underpowered as a heavy, one of the devs (in a rare moment of candor) just flat out said, "Too much work, and we don't have the manpower right now".... ...THEN he said that balancing them against snipers would also be an issue (one I disagree with...but hey....)
