good suggestions 4 weapons

[Lt.Kage]

i was looking under weapons and i saw 11 weapons, their is gonna b different types of assualt rifles,snipers,heavy weapons,pistols,shotguns, and stuff like that right? ;D...if u guys havnt planned on that well it would b soooooooo awesome if u guys did ;D. although its a really really awesome mod just a suggestion but anyways tnx for ur time,good mod and good site also

[Alex]

There's 12 weapons, actually.

I didn't put up the "Hunting Shotgun" yet, but it's in, and kickass.

There's only one full automatic weapon, the rest are semi auto, or melee , or explosive.

[Vicious]

What about lead pipes and police officer weapons? Ya know like MP5's, those are full auto and would make sense in a police builing scenario or stronghold for survivors.

(Just curious, do you like suggestions, or do you think people are telling you stuff you already know/plan to do and you jsut want them to shut up, I dont want to offend your work or make myself look like a know it all )

[Lt.Kage]

ya i dont wanna offend u ether but i like that guys idea bout like mp5 ect but anyways its ur mod u do wat u like ;D

[Vicious]

OOOO yes, and what about differant type of marines? Ya know, specilties... Enginer (build turrents for hvy defense missions) Medic (light guns) Rifle man (what you have right now) Sniper (Worked nicely for those 1 shot headshot kills in 2nd RE movie) Scout (light arms/armor, undectable by common zombies in shadows?) Hvy assult men (chainguns) blah blah, you get my point OOOO, Flamethrowers perhaps? ^^ These are trained marines, might as well have them with high tech weaponery, I mean, come on the movies are a joke how they drop men in and they instantly get raped (ooo, and demolition men? Exlposives+Shotugns)

[Lt.Kage]

thats almost exactly wat i was thinking but 1 thing id change is change the chaingun to like an m249 since were talking bout heavy weapons for marines now a days but other then that u got it perfect! that would make it even more amazing then it already is ;D

[Vicious]

yes yes m249 *browses threw rainbow six 3 gun options* Ya i almsot always use the L85A1 (the Bullpup in this game) but i do love varation, 1 main assualt rifle makes it kinda limited.

[Lt.Kage]

hahah yep rainbow six, i love how they have such a huge selection of weapons, although i wouldnt expect this mod 2 have that many but at least some variety but like the guy said i guess not lol but ya i use the l85A1 alot 2 in that game, and ya i agree with the limited part,but when u read this(guy whos making this)making u could take into consideration in adding more weapons in a newer version for the future?

Right. We wanted to step away from all the other mods, and from "the regular guns", in general.

Do we have a arctic warfare magnum?

Nope, we have a crossbow.

Do we have an Mp5 with silencer?

Nope, we have a Beat up looking Bullpup rifle.

Do we have a Combat knife ?

Nope, we have a Kitchen Knife.



It's all part of making the mod feel more "horror-show" -ish and less like a tactiacl counterstrike spinoff which just happens to feature zombies.

But no, i don't mind you guys throwing ideas my way. I mean, im a very spur of the moment person. If something fits, i stick it in.

but try to think outside the box a little here.

What guns are downright COOL, and which are just "Counterstrike gravy"

A cool gun, to me, is an old style, Double barrelled hunting shotgun, or a six shooter. Or something with some class and distinction.
;D

[Lt.Kage]

well how bout a LITTLE more variety lol or if u want some classy weapons hmmmmmmmm mabey some 1911 colts or somthing like that its just that like since the story is bout marines they would have plenty of weapons plus all kinds of crazy stuff lol but i no where ur coming from...sorta anyways im glad u dont mind the suggestions

[Acid]

How about a good old Winchester rifle ?

[Alex]

That would be the sort of thing i consider.

And believe me, it might make it to a future release (or a close bolt-action variant).

But im still working through the crossbow, so i can't say atm

Psh i not even a fan of counter-strike. But it would make sence a marine would have tacticle assult rifle, pistol (and not duel pistols for that matter) and a combat knife. Thats from the start though. Sure after a few hours in hell he would be limited to perhaps a beat up rifle, mixed pistols and a kitchen knife because his combat is in his ex-comrades bloody skull with bobs arm in his teeth. It all depends on how the story line starts out. And to keep authenticity and give lots of options, only allow 1 type of weapon per category that can be held, and to limit it even more, only place ammo where it would be found, example, MP5 ammo in police station (along with shotgun and pistol of course) And have that weapon and ammo available no where else. It gives variety, yet keeps limits it and keeps it practical

[Lt.Kage]

ya i agree with vicious and im not a fan of counter strike ether, as a matter of fact i dispies that game with a passion it pisses me off lol, but ya their should b a variety

This is significant to me, because the big HL2 zombie thing, Dawn of the Dead, is pretty much just that. They've hacked CS to have all the bots on one team and all the players in the other, made the bots look/act like zombies and then added counterstrike-looking weapons on counterstrike-looking maps. Pardon my language, but Big Fucking Deal.

This mod isn't going to feel like you've got your favorite gun and are using it in-game against zombies. It's gonna feel like you've dropped into a nightmare horror movie. When was the last time one of those was factually accurate? I saw Dawn of the Dead and these guys are like, "Oh, a bus! And welding equipment! And razor wire! Good thing we all have the skills of those people on Pimp My Ride!"

This mod's intent is to immerse you, but not into the real world. That's something every gamer should be able to Get. So if you want a particular kind of weapon ("More automatics, more whatevers") or have a thought that's really stylistic, go for it. But just because these guys are marines doesn't mean that we're going to go give them an outfit of Military-Grade weaponry, complete with dual-action sniper rifles, M-60 machine guns and eighteen types of Israeli pistol. We'll leave those to the Counterstrike kiddos.
