i sorta agree with u but i still think they should have more of a variety cause i think it would get boring to use the same stuff so frequently im not saying have like 50 different types of american pistols and 50 iraqi pistols im just saying have some variety and like classes like the sniper could choose from like a 50.cal or an m21 and mabey like 1 other and u could choose from like give it some choice so that the players can have some say in it not so its like choosen 4 u and planned o and mabey add some laser sights ;D cause laser sight is SICK

Ya i really hate counter-strike too. haha
Ummm, perhaps you should have the marines mission fuck up right from the get go then? ;D Helicopper crash or something? That would give you the no way out feeling, isolated lone survivor simulation. (I love a good storyline. Its the most important thing i look for next to graphics) I'm dying to play more of this, could probably make a kick-ass music video with more footage.

Then again... you could loose the whole marine factor... I mean, I've been dying for a game where you have Superior firepower, Superior skill, and jsut mow down enemies, so unless you build a story with that... Perhaps a huge widescale military operation? Huge assult on the infested london, Hundreds of marines deployed... Within a few hours thier supplies are exhausted.. there retreat cut off, and only a few dozen remain, and to make matters worse, a new type of zombie has arisen, your formor marine buddies are now l33t zombies (like in doom 3, trained marine zombies that kcik your ass) That adds the same sense of fear, and it gives them the chance to satisfy thier chance of varation and total domination early on, ya know, false sense of security before you throw them into the pits of hell.

No obvious american weaponry weaponry will be featured in the mod. It's been done, and it's tired. I mean, i just want to have a unique angle here, and i think we're accomplishing that.

There will be no single player. I need to stress that again.
As for the idea of limited ammunition due to the widespreadness of the virus, all I can say is Very Yes. Marines are pulling major nest-cleaning operations in every area of the city, and the virus has been on the rise for quite awhile.

Actually we're not talking about swat or US.Marines
we're talking about the British Royal Marines
Their main battle rifle is the L85 A2
It has been included, and you will always spawn with it, as well as a big knife
Any other weapons, are bought. And will be as exotic as we can make them.

How authentic and scary are you trying to make this? I Hate respawn.. takes the whole fear of death away from a thrilling horror. If it was my way it'd be 1 life per lvl unless everyone died, then you restart lvl Respawn per wave takes the fear away... Are you aiming for fear? Are you aiming for horrifying? I'm beyond the weapon issue here i more intrigued at teh storyline now.

In the game right now, you have:
1- weak high-range automatic 1- low-range, low-power, high-speed pistol combo 1- mid-range, high-power pistol 1- high-range, high-power crossbow (SLOW, in other words) (with crosshairs- a comodity in this game) 1- high-range, XTREMELY HIGH POWER bazooka 2- shotguns of varying speed and power 2- melee weapons of varying speed and power 1- kinda crappy, fast melee weapon 1- extremely powerful, ammo-driven melee weapon 1- type of fairly-powerful grenade
This is variety, folks- weapons that don't just look different, but also serve different purposes. I can understand if you'd want, say, a low-range, higher-power automatic, or something that served an actual different purpose, but you are actually asking alex to spend the time modelling and animating weapons that don't actually contribute to gameplay?? Are you INSANE?

O and (sry if i'm being rude) what the hell is with a buy menu? Since when can you talk to the sky and buy weapons? Perhaps use the vending machine style of Dino Crisis 2 or PArasite Eve 2 where you traded exp for weapons+add-ons but they were few and out of the way of main goal. Buying weapons from any point anywhere is jsut kinda... Coutner-Strike... same with respawn issue... ew...

Ok here's the gist.
When the full release comes
You wont even think.
You'll just Go
Oooh and Ahhhh and you''ll mash in zombie skulls and there will be much excitement and coolness.
And everyone lived happily ever after.
Does that settle things?

all weapons have purposes though like an ak47 would b moderate speed,high damage,inaccurate, a m16 would b weaker,abit faster,alot more accurate
