Presently specializing only has effects related to combat, but it's planned that specialization will be relevant to other tasks later on.

If you specialize with your favorite katana, and then lose it and replace it with another, your specialization still applies.

You specialize in katana.
But then you get a ceramic composite katana. Hrmm.. what now?
I was told that it should pick up on some attributes that would be similar, and be able to determine wether or not that particular weapon object "counts".. But I'm not sure if the J-man meant that it will do this NOW.. or if it will be something that will be implemented later on down the road.
If the weapon is similar (not exact, but close), it will apply, even if it's a different brand name or some other minor change.
Something like the composition of a sword is likely to have a pretty radical effect though, so while this applies to things like butterfly knives and stillettos, it may or may not apply to a steel sword and a composite sword.
Using your inspect command, you can ICly make a judgement call on weather or not you think the specialization applies. Weather or not that judgement will be accurate depends on your ability to inspect things proprly.

Some questions :
Do pistols count as pistols or is caliber taken into account?
Like if you specialize in a Magnun .357 and by means of destiny end up with a Seburo 6mm will it count or not?
If you specialize on a baseball bat and get a steel pipe it works, but it won't work if you get a criket (sp?) bat, right?

Jamaicans, Australians, South Africans, Indians, Pakistanis, Dutch and Zimbabwians do all have funny accents.
But, don't mistake Cricket as being a British game, sure, the scotts pretend to play it, but the Northern Irish and Welsh aren't big on the game.
It's English, very much English.
British indeed.
Damn colonials.
I love you really Iga.
:wanker:
Speaking of which, shouldn't martial arts be applied to weapons as well in how they're used? ;P
*wanders off dragging yet another almost corpse*
I was taught this one movement that uses the trigger guard on the gun to rip off your opponents finger...

As easy as breaking someone's arm? (hold other's wrist down, other hand on elbow and tuh-wist….then lift to inflict pain and/or break arm. Not to be used on drunks cos they fall down a lot...)
BTW, my gf was staring at the screen, Iga, she says your icon looks like an enraged potato....
What's taters, eh?
*shakes a fist in the air*
Yeah…it is kinda lumpy...it is stretched to fit the icon size.

Just wondering about this….
