Yes some people need to calm down with the whole well if a zombie attacked using his ultra biting canine teeth the infection would spread faster than the zombie spat his poison into the vixtim's mouth sorta people . Anyways the weapons need 2 be more home made like rather than full blown rocket launchers with a flmethrower and nukegun attached (not flaming just mucking about)

How about, when you stand near pre-stockpiled boxes of [homemade weapon] you can quickly pull one out, fire it, and either use the weapon in a melee attack or quickly pick up another one.

Maybe there could be trenches full of gasoline that could be lit on fire to create a barrier, or perhaps just dig a big trench lined with spikes.

This could probably only be done on source, but perhaps...

I suggest that, as said multiple times before by others, that advanced ideas that only source can handle can rest until devs maybe decides they will source this.

Actually, all you would really need to do in case of a zombie attack is go to the roof with food and water and barricade any accesses to the roof (redundant, since zombies can't climb stairs) and wait for rescue or for the zombies to decompose and fall apart.

Yup...

Thats why i could never understand Night of the living dead (The remake.) At the end the guy who shoots Ben hides in the attack. Why didnt they all just do that in the first place?! Thats what i would do, although we all know a zombie attack aint going to happen.

This thread was about the implementation of new weapons, not what to do in case of a zombie attack or what we could do with the Source engine.

I agree with all the "homeade" weapon ideas, but bombs and stuff would have to be scarcer. Weapons I suggest...

10-Gauge Shotgun
Sawed Off Pump Shotgun (why thy hell do people saw off double barrel shotguns?)
Hunting Rifle
.50 Deagle
Re-skin the AK with a plasticbutt and foregrip and make it not a peice of shit.
M249
make weapons do damage when you throw them at an enemy
hunting Bow
Tec-9
Uzi

- 10 Guage, we already have two shotguns, and each fills a niche, combine this with the weapons limit and I see no reason to add a third shotgun that would be similar to one of them.

- Shawed off, we already have one, and chances are it won't be replaced woth a sawed off pump shotty because of cinematic feel and balance.

- Hunting rifle, without any specifics I can't say anything about this one.

- .50 Desert Eagle, if I recall correctly, the Deagle we have now has a seven round magazine, which would make it a .50 cal.

- Reskining the AK, that is fluff compared to other changes the devs are making, so don't count on it.

- I doubt that one could throw a weapon hard enough to cause some amount of lethal damage to something that is undead.

- Hunting bow, check list of things not to suggest before posting, it is listed there as "Compound bow".

- Tec-9, we have 3 SMG's already, why another?

- We have uzi's, they simply prefixed them with micro-

- 10 Guage, would just be badass because you could just kill the zombies in like 1 hit each time you fired. And the Benelli sucks ass.

- Pump sawed off, breaking the cycle on the really retarded double barrel shotty, O and Sawed doesnt have a "H" in it.

- Hunting rifle, any hunting rifle, scoped bolt action 30.30 rifle

- .50 Desert Eagle, all Deagles have 7 round clip

- Reskining the AK, someone needs to brake the cycle of incorrectly skinned Imported AKs.

- Throwing a weapon could push them back giving you time to switch weapons and lay down the law.

- Hunting bow, didnt see that thing.

- Tec-9, we have 3 SMG's already, why another?

- Theres a difference between the micro-uzi and normal uzis, micros fire 1200 rounds a minute and Uzi fires at 600 rounds a minute

None of those reasons will get them implemented.

Let us see, later on in my post it doesn't have an h in it. Hmmm, by chance I made a typo? Oh no it is the end of the world!

QUOTE

Then someone incorrecly stated that the .44 has a 8 round magazine and the .37 has a 9 rounds magazine.

And?... Does it matter if it realistically skinned? Bottom of the change list docket if ever considered.

QUOTE

Or you could switch weapons, which takes all of a tenth of a second or so, and kill them just as easily. Aside from the fact that this would be difficult at best to implement.

The microuzi we have does not fire at 1200 rounds per minute. Also, the growing theme has been not to place much stock in realism of the weapons... It looks like an uzi, it feels like an uzi, and that is good enough.

Ok w/e guy, Uzi doesnt feel like an Uzi though, it sucks and its inaccurate as hell.

I like the uzi the way it is, just dont spray and pray, do burst shots or single and you will hit them

I vote for throwing cds at zombies.

The reason they dont go down into the basement (in the original) or up into the attic (the remake) at the start is because theres no where to run - as Ben says when the whiney bad guy human asks the same question just before they start to blockade the house up. If you're trapped in a house filled with zombies, theres no where to run - and if ur in the attic or basement how would you even know if there was anyone trying to rescue you? And how would you/they reach them/you?

Homemade weapons like a baseball bat! A screwdriver! A hammer! Just a little variation in melee would be nice. Apart from a chainsaw. Homemade weapons
