TSS, i'm sure people have brought this to your attention before, but i think i might as well do it again: there are ways to put more weapons into the game. supposedly you can "fool" the HL engine and make it think that all the weapons are one weapon. the dev's for The Specialists did it, as well as Day of Defeat and i think Firearms. alternatly, getting rid of those PE weapons that aren't being used is a good course of action as well...

I think they might of done that for the .44sw. I definatly know firearms mod did and possibly TS.

This is what Ive said for the past couple months every time has requested source: BB source is highly unlikely because the mod team (Ironoak) has decided to use the crystal engine to create an rpg, although they have said there is a small chance of going to source but please, for the sake of all mankind, do not request a port and/or create polls, or even useless threads about the porting of BB, because it is most likely not going to happen, thank you for reading.

Bolt action ONLY if it is a 1 hit kill to the chest and above. No point in having a bolt that takes the same amount of shots as the semi.
Yea, definately, bolt, as long as its powerful.

I'd prefer a flintlock or matchlock rifle preferably matchlock so you have to keep blowing on it to keep the ember red hot. It would be muzzle-loading and you have to use a powder horn to fill it, then ram wad and round ball lead shot into it. Don't forget to put powder in the pan too or the gun won't fire!!!

28 days later when you've reloaded your ready to kill those rage infested humans.

about the fooling hl: dont tell that to me, im just your regular ol' forum police cool.gif i think tho the dev team also knows it.

so far, its kinda obvious why the bolt's winning, people want a high powered AWP like demi-god weapon.

belive me im talking to scottish about this subject aswell behind all of your backs cool.gif untill the man gives the word, by all means keep voting.

Personally I don't mind a Semi-Automatic sniper weapon, nor do I mind a Bolt action weapon. As long as something has a scope, I'm happy.

Back in the good ol' days, we didn't have your guns, grenades, helicopters, and military personal up the ying-yang.
All we had was a sword, a shield, a suit of shiny armor, and plenty of holy magic. I think you youngens have it easy killing off these undead.

What type of bolt action would we want/have? I'd like something with a mag hence- *mag in, bolt back, round out, bolt forward, shoot, bolt back, round out, boltforward shoot e.t.c* it'd be faster then manualy loading it with 1 every shot. It'd save time- BUT we'd have to take the power down because of it's magazine, so the question is do we want a

AWP demi-god like weapon
with low ROF but v.high damage or do we want a medium ROF, high damage sniper?

Moving on, what bolt action would everyone like? (Put some pics down happy.gif)

the gun would most likely be like a sniper from DOD, meaning 5 loose bullits in, bolt back, fire, bolt, shell out, bolt back, fire, once mag has been depleted loose 5 bullits reload.

it would be a low rof, vhigh damage sniper rifle. to meet the demand what people want: headshots at higher difficulties. ive already suggested to scottish a sniper, with the capability to make a 1 shot kill on the torso at difficulty 1, on your own server, alone. after that, it wont kill with shooting the torso, but headshots wil lremain till god knows how high difficulty.

yeah, bolt sniper with medium magazine would be nice. I don't even think there's a modern sniper gun that operates on the shot-load-shot-load (those are like ww1 etc). I'd definately like to see a 1 shot torso kill for difficulty 1.
