Burst fire/Select Fire

[Magus86]

can we get some kind of weapon variable that says "shoot this many shots before having to stop" so that we can do 3-round and 2-round bursts in our weapons mods? I want a proper M-16A2, and the only way to do any kind of 3-round burst is to have regular full auto with 3-round mags, but then i have to make the reload time fast enough to make it seem like real 3-round burst... then they can sit there and shoot all day without the delay of a real reload.

Just wait until they implement new modding choices.

You will have alot of oprions if they do.

Most weapons that have burst firing option also have full auto. So it's up to user to shoot in bursts, making a weapon that forces you to shoot in bursts is quite unrealistic. However, you can add recoil and bink, so they will have to shoot in bursts.

[Magus86]

Unrealistic, my ass. the M-16A2 has no full auto, it's only 3-round burst. adding recoil and bink doesn't make people fire in bursts. I want it so 1 click = 3 shots, not "hold down til 3 bullets leave the gun." your idea doesn't force people to shoot 3-round bursts. they can still spray and pray, and with the fast ROF on an M4/M-16, it would be kind of hard to stop at exactly 3 shots each time. and it wouldn't make any sense for an m-16 to have a lot of recoil anyway. Besides that, i don't want people running around with full auto m-16s.

Also, it would be nice to have select-fire options on our guns... that is, to be able to choose between semi, full auto, and burst fire(if the gun has it). With an option on how many bullets a burst can fire, combined with a select fire option, I can make a nice realistic AN-94.

Burst fire as a ini option -- yes, but multiple fire modes? You're playing the wrong game, kid.

[Magus86]

Well yeah... what's wrong with select fire? Supposedly only having 3-round burst is unrealistic. So is a hell of a lot of the rest of the game too, but for the sake of realism/expanding the modding capabilities, I'd love to have select fire option for all weapons.


...And stop calling me kid. I'm 22.

One of the M16s is only burst fire, kid

My X53 form my 2057 AD mod has three round burst. You just make it have three shots in a clip, wth a low fire interval, and a fairly low reload time. You can then click the mouse (Not hold) and you get single shot.

That's what we don't want to do.

[Zabijaka]

Very good idea add some more variables in weapons.ini
Not only burst shots, i sugest to add more reload options like in spas, add weapon fire mode (single or auto) example--> spas with auto fire mode or minimi with single fire mode

My idea:

[USSOCOM]
Damage=171
FireMode=1         // 1-single 2-auto 3-burst
BurstSize=0        // only when fire mode is 3, shots in one burst
FireInterval=12
Ammo=12
ReloadMode=1        // 1-change magazine, 2-add one bulet (like a spas reload)
ReloadTime=65
Speed=180
BulletStyle=1
StartUpTime=0
Bink=0
MovementAcc=1
Recoil=0

Been suggested, I approved, it got down. Happens usually about once a month. So here's the F12. Don't be upset when it doesn't happen.

Moral of the story: NEVER call anyone a kid.

It's a good suggestion, but it seems like it may not be made. Lots of suggestions related have been made before.

Then it'll have the same problem which is that you get "infinite ammo"

[JonWood007]

Meh. Why can't you just burst the guns by repeatedly clikcing your mouse?

Also, there is no M16A2 in this game.

He's talking about a mod to the weapon.ini

[Magus86]

... Jon, I know there's no M-16A2 in the game I want to make one, as well as other guns that should have 3-round burst. And yeah, I could just click repeatedly, but then nobdy else is forced to do that, so they'll just shoot full auto.

Also, with burst fire combined with Select fire options, I could make a nice AN-94, Sig 550/1/2, proper MP5, Enfield L85A1, and Beretta 93r.

And Gnoblar, I could do that too, but then the gun has unlimited ammo.

I'll definitely be upset if I don't see it, just not surprised.

hellyeah this would be awesome

f12 definitive 

[Decaying Soldat]

Why not? f12

[STM1993]

Old topic...

Anyway can a mod add a poll here? I'll support it with a F12 for modding.

[Gotfryd]

Yeah, polls are good

And look, this is yet another thread about adding more modding capabilities to weapons.ini. Maybe we should make a poll about whole idea...
