Hi all, figured this would be a good place to post my ideas and suggestions, but first something extremely important: Thank you for making this wonderful mod.

Ok, now down to business. I was wondering if maybe you guys might consider adding another human assault rifle, specifically one styled after the Enfield L85A1. Or a bullpup-styled assault rifle in general. Instead of a grenade launcher, secondary fire could activate an IR Score (2x zoom at most, difficult to make out terrain and details in general).

And howabout a rifle kinda like the M21, y'know, something about halfway between the M50 and the R78A1. A semi-automatic sniper rifle.

I probably have other ideas, but can't remember them at the moment. I'd like to hear what other people think about these ideas, though. Thanks for your time!

although those are cool, if you look at them they do not fit the BW look. you know what i mean? especially the winchester, that doesn't seem like a BW weapon. the BW skins so far have the really cold and futuristic feel to them. those seem like modern weapons.

It´s not hard to just create a fresh new skin for a model made from a modern gun.

Personally I'd like to see a semi auto or select fire M-14 [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M14_rifle ] style scoped rifle to fill the gap between the M50 and the sniper rifle. It would be more powerful than the former (7.62x51), but have a smaller mag capacity (20) and more muzzle climb etc. during auto fire. It wouldn't have the sniper rifle's single shot .50 stopping power, but could be fired a lot more rapidly with much less muzzle flip. Maybe a silencer could be added or detached via the special key. There was a gun like this in the Covert Forces weapon mod for UT99, and it was an absolute joy to shoot with.

Btw, the YARM mod has the L85 afaik, as well various other contemporary weapons. They're not quite as fancy as the Ballistic guns, but pretty good nonetheless (all YARM guns have melee attacks, for example).

Yes, a rapid fire gun with a scope would rock. B)

Well, thats much like something were intending to add!
Do you know, that you can't silence a high velocity weapon? You can suppress the explosive bang, but not the sound of the bullet break the sound barrier!
To silence a rifle, you have to put crap ammo in it...

You're still pretty dead if that crappy subsonic bullet hits you between the eyes, though. :laugh:

Gotta have a gernade launcher makes the game much more sweeter or hand gernades.

this mod has both of those already, have you even played the mod yet??????

the assault rifle has a built in grenade launcher, and their are PLENTY of hand grenades. play the mod first before suggesting please, or your post will seem pointless.

I think a special grenade launcher would be kind of cool, hold down the alt. fire to increase the launch power to shoot them to more distances.

It would create the third way of using those flying balls of death.
