Catalyst Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 What are you suggesting? - Change the ADS for LMG's to a clean, more accurate hipfire rather than looking down the iron sights, similar to what is shown in the video below How would this change better the server? - LMGs are often looked down upon and are never really utilized. the main problem with LMG's (And some other weapons) is that when firing, the front of the gun recoils towards your face completely obscuring whatever you are trying to fire at, making it very uncomfortable, and often forcing players to rely on hipfire just to see what you are shooting at. I feel that this change would allow players to have a much cleaner viewpoint to engage enemies and lay down suppressive fire, which is an integral point of using an LMG Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain. - the only bad thing i can think of is that LMGs might need stat balancing such as more recoil or less accuracy if these changes are made, because they would make LMGS more comfortable and allow people to use them for their full extent. Who would this change mostly benefit? - Any class that uses an LMG as their primary, such as Combat engineer, CI Heavy, and Security Heavy. it would also mean people would buy LMGs more from the armory, meaning more usage all around Please link any workshop content, screenshots, or anything that you think may be helpful to those who view this suggestion - (I used payday 2 because its the only game i both own and thought of that had this feature that explains what i mean) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right Twix Bar Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) I don't think this is possible with TFA weapons. I guess... theoretically, the weapon could be offset to the right when aiming down sights. But that's just what I think is possible, I don't know if it is. It could be neat, but I don't think LMGs will be used much regardless, so it could just be more effort than it's worth. +/- Support Hope has said it is possible, but my opinion of possibly more work than it's worth stands.

Bread has done it before and shared it in the old (separate) command discord once, worked without any issues. (Fixed all TFA ironsights). I don't know why it wasn't implemented though. Obvioisly with now bread being gone, I don't know who else that could do these kinds of stuff. Edited August 22, 2021 by Hope osu! achiever?

Ya Boi Sawrunner Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 +support Tbh, there are a lot of otherwise good guns that make themselves obsolete by kicking the entire top side of itself into your face when you ads, making them useless unless you hipfire or guess. Why stop at lmgs for these fixes?

Its also best we mainly get ideas from the gmod workshop as those can easily be implemented.

Coltable Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Sadly as stated by the users above this is a little out of SMT's league and therefore not something we could achieve or at least to a standard in which we would be happy with.

Coltable Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Denied. The SCP-RP SMT has decided against adding this suggestion for performance reasons, the benefit to the server, or another unstated reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
