TerPepsi1 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) What you want to see? - Either a Kar98k or an M1A Socom 16, both of which are TFA rifles and legally own-able by civilians. Additionally, redefine what a class II weapon is to what it actually is in real life (i.e: XM is legal in real life and considered a class 2, as well as civilian hunting rifles. NOT Sawed-Off shotgun.). A link to the definition of different weapon classes is here: http://bythewaythecrowflies.blogspot.com/2013/11/weapon-classes-and-nfa-explained.html Why should we add it? - Currently, civilians can legally own very few weapons. Anything greater than a pistol is, essentially, banned. In allowing the legal usage of a shotgun, you increase realism and increase a (legal) civilian's arsenal. Additionally, a Kar98-K or M1A Socom 16 would make a great addition to the civilian's legal arsenal. What are the advantages of having this? - Increased variety in weaponry, but specifically, civilian weaponry which is lacking. Also, the addition of another ranged rifle (other than the AWP) would prove useful as it is a cheaper alternative and would likely be used by criminals (and, potentially, police? Especially the Socom 16). Who is it mainly for? - Civilians (and criminals) Links to any content: TFA Kar98K: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1230930270 TFA Socom 16: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1348294971 Side Note: I know *somebody* is going to make the argument that few player play as civilians and, as such, these weapons won't be used. Firstly, I believe the addition of a cheaper, ranged rifle (such as the kar98K) would be something that criminals could benefit from. Secondly, we currently have weapons that are rarely used at all (90% of the handguns), so to deny these suggestions simply on the grounds that "nobody's going to use them" doesn't make sense. Other Side Note: This gun would still be distributed to people via a gun dealer. It wouldn’t be something the civilians could spawn with or spawn in.

Masterson Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 +/- Support Alright, let me just list out some things. + More weapon variety, we need some new guns and would be awesome to see some new ones. - I don't see why this exactly NEEDS to be added to the Civilian class. The Civ class can't mug, rob, etc. Mabye make this avaible for gun dealers to sell. Not so much as a spawner weapon for Civs. In All: I feel these guns could be neat and used in a way that would benefit. However I don't think giving them to the Civ class will benefit in any way. Sure mabye giving gun dealer /adv dealer these could be useful. I also feel mabye updating the gun class, and whats legal and isn't could be updated.

TerPepsi1 Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 To clarify, I never meant that civilians could spawn this. I meant that it could be legally purchased and used. A regular gun dealer would still sell the weapons. And to the RDM point- why would a RDMer use a Kar98k when they can use an AK47 or an AWP? It won’t change anything RDM-wise.

Echo Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) On 1/17/2020 at 4:27 PM, Hannah King said: ... this will just cause more rdm -Support Citizen is the class that everyone has access to and this would make it easier for rdmers to have instant access to a weapon. Thus causing people to have a negative opinion of the server. In rp you still need a gun license to own a firearm such as a rifle. Also giving a weapon to the citizen class would break server rules because they would have the ability to do criminal acts where citzens are supposed to be "Law abiding" so that every citizen would be needing a gun permit for it to follow that rule. But then a loophole in the rule would be that they can open carry since hypothetically they have the permit when they spawn in. Sooo in all as former Mr.Valkyri3 said "Wheres the roleplay? " in a bunch of citizens running around with rifles ? Edited March 2, 2020 by Echo "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.

How could an innocent civilian defend themselves when a guy with a huge AR (e.x. AUG) comes up to them and the only thing they have to defend themselves with legally is a phony pistol, or with a gun license a low powered SMG? You can sense some unbalancing in this, as most people on the side of the pistol would obviously die whenever they go up against the AUG; you're clearly underpowered and outgunned, and you'd most likely die before you get the chance to call 911. Adding a few new civilian targeted weapons would do us all a favor, as not only would it most likely improve the gunplay and decrease the willingness to break the law, it would also increase a sense of realism as civilians are allowed to own a LOT more than just pistols if you have the right certifications and licenses. The only real thing I have against this is the potential for impacting performance (although I have no idea how that could happen, it's only a model and an entity more depending on the amount you would add). Also, I can say from looking at the guns, they're really sexy (reason enough to add them lol). I'd also appreciate adding the possibility for attachments, the Kar98k only comes with iron sights on neutral, and it being a long-range weapon, that may not add up well (but that's an entirely different suggestion in its own right.)

TerPepsi1 Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) Eternity, sawed-off shotguns are class 3’s in real life and normal ones are not. That’s the law. This server messed up in characterizing all shotguns as class 3’s, when an XM, for example, is not. Also, to respond to a few other comments, we could easily make these weapons restricted to people with gun licenses. It’s just a matter of adding them. Also, I think there’s some confusion. I don’t want the weapon to be added to the civilian class, I wanted to add it to the gun dealer and just have there be a larger variety of legal weapons. The amount of RDM shouldn’t be impacted by this at all since there are obviously better weapons than these. A prospective RDMer will always choose an AK47 over a civilian rifle. They are just legal to purchase and use, you do not spawn with them. Edited March 15, 2020 by TerPepsi1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
