Post subject:  Different M30A1

I already asked this question in a thread but I don't think it was the right one for this sort of thing so I'll just post it here.

I'm sometimes spawning with a different M30A1 Rifle instead of the normal one. It's camouflaged and has a red thing on the left side instead of a green one. But the most significant difference by far is the addition of the automatic and suppression firemodes. Can someone explain this?

Also, when I looked into the .ucl file, it's designating the rifle as the M30A2. o_0

Even further, sometimes I spawn with a silenced RS04 instead of a normal one.

Sounds like you have found both of the M30's. :)

The M30A1 is a burst firing accurate assault rifle and the M30A2 is a fully charged, fully automatic gauss assault rifle. It kicks more butt in pretty much every way. They're pretty much two completely different guns, however you never know which one you'll pick up. ;)

Oh, come on. Isn't there some way I could access them quickly? A command perhaps? I like to have complete control of my matches. :banana-dance:

Sorry, no can do. ;) The explanation why is rather complex but in short the 'new gun' is just a unique camouflage pattern.


Here's a longer story if you like reading:

The gun is called M30A2 in the .ucl because there once was a gun in the V6 pack called the M30A2. It was really strong and had all of the fancy firemodes.

For the sake of balancing the gun got its damage reduced in V8.

In order to test out some new code for V9, the gun got a complete overhaul and now only fires in burst. It got renamed the M30A1 because of this.

Later on, after the development of the camo system which randomly generates camouflage for the guns, I added a special edition pattern for the M30A1 which adds back the full functionality and power of the M30A2.

After chatting with Blade Sword, the original M30A2 was added back in and heavily upgraded as the AIMS-20.

AIMS-20? I know of no such weapon. Is this a gun that has yet to be made? Or am I missing a weapons pack?

Hmm, if you're getting the upgraded M30A2 you should definitely have the AIMS-20 as well. I forget what category it's under, though. Might be Sniper or Assault Rifle. It looks just like the M30A2 (like a lot of the model-less guns) but sounds way different.

Is that the one that has like "burst-650RPM" or something like that for the first firemode?

Oh, you mean the MARS-2? The one that's just like the M50 but with a scope instead of a GL? Either way, I had forgotten about that one. Thanks and once again, great job on these weapons man. BTW, Chaosmarine, your link: http://www.pascaleggert.de/games.html is giving me a 404.

I'll see if I can find them...

Here's a couple links:

The AIMS should be the last one in the Assault category... I think...

The AIMS appears at the top of the assault category for me. Also it is a completely different gun from the MARS

Niiiiice! I don't know what model the MARS or the AIMS will use but those should totally be it!

That EPIC A1 model looks especially perfect for the AIMS, but I agree with some comments that it should use one large magazine that attaches to the bottom of the stock, otherwise holding the gun would be awkward. Other than that, cool design.

The THOR also fits my impression of the PK2000 perfectly but that gun already has a WIP model allocated to it.
