Thanks to BU for informing me of this one, nofrag.com has an interesting interview with James Schmalz, one of the people behind Pariah.

We have a wicked new weapon system that affects single player and multiplayer play by allowing the player to customize their weapons and upgrade them as they play. So as you play through the game you can select which weapons you want to upgrade and improve. As they upgrade they gain different features and powers. It’s very cool and makes combat in multiplayer very unique. So we have a core set of traditional weapons such as an assault rifle and a rocket launcher, etc. and then we have some really unique and new weapons.
Every weapon can be upgraded as you play in both single player and multiplayer. Each upgrade is more difficult to get than the last. In addition to that, we have a few really cool and unique weapons that tie into the story. One we showed off recently is called Titans Fist. As to the nature of the weapon and what it does, you will just have to play the game and find out.
There are 7 weapons in the game that can be functionally upgraded 3 times throughout the singleplayer campaign using pick-ups called Weapon Energy Cores that are dispersed throughout the environments for you to find. Once you have a WEC you can choose which weapon you want to upgrade. Some of the upgrades include going from a single rocket on the rocket launcher to a lock-on feature and then locking on up to 4 targets at a time or with the grenade launcher you ultimately get a mag grenade that attracts debris while it's flying through the air and explodes fragments everywhere upon detonation...quite powerful! |
Very cool, I cant wait to play this game and try it out for myself! |

Weapon Energy Cores?
"Dispersed" throughout?
Sounds like Unreal and the Dispersion pistol are making a comeback....  |
