I am not sure if I like this but my hearts tells me “HELL YEAAAAAAAAA” but what do you guys think? too much for a sandbox game? i think it would be nice for pvp and the game in general. the way it would work? im not sure yet…but whats your thought on this, forum and Devs if possible?
Edit: Maybe it could go kind of like this:
First you need to put in mind you had to have a progressing system, you would not have this combos from the get go. Maybe by buying/making new weapons you would have better/different combos. and depending on type of weapon(bow/axe/hammer) you would have different “specials” or affects on the enemy. so even if the combos are similiar, one(weapon) is faster, one knocks the enemy, etc.
Imagining we have a stamina bar and a hammer, and imagining the hammer is the way for knockbacks/ups/downs, you could LCx3(Left Click) for a standard combo, i.e.: A hit from the right to left, from the left to right and right to left. simple but the last one dealing a little more damage and knockback than the rest of the attacks and having a really slight delay compared to the couple first hits. imagine like b=start of the atack animation, o=duration between the left to right(for example) and m=end of animation. so it would go: boom, boom, booom.
But that was the basic combo(for the hammer), a not so basic combo would be LC,LC,RC(right click) which would be right to left, left to right and back to front(off course in the animation the “front” part would go slightly down). This would do even more damage and knock back than the basic LCx3. Progressing you could do a LC,LC,RC(hold) you would do, at the end, a up to down instead “knocking down” your oponent, depending on the type of terrain and the power of the weapon, you could root your enemy to the ground briefly.
Another i.e. would be LC,RC,RC. for a right to left, up to down and down to up which would knock the enemy back and into the air by 2/3 blocks for example. that could scale on the strength of the weapon too. and a more advanced combo would be LC,RC(hold),RC(hold) to do a right to left, up do down(and root) and down to up(and knock up a by 1 more block or 2 and backwards a little more).
and later on you could have a 5 clicks combo like, LC,LC,LC,LC,LC and would do this and that then you could go LC,RC,LC,RC,LC etc, etc.
If you had a shield (if there is any) you could defend yourself with the scroll or a letter or CTRL or Shift.
