New weapons?

(TheFluffyOne) #1

Let’s say that some day in the far future Splash Damage decides to add gen 3 loadout cards in the game with brand new weapons for every loadout (Primary, secondary and maybe melee).

I want to ask, which guns that were never before seen in Dirty Bomb, would you like to see in-game, and which merc do you believe would be the most suitable for it?

Personally, I have hardly any knowledge of guns, so I’m making this discussion to ask the more knowledgeable what wondrous killing machine they want to see in-game. I’m quite curious.

the guy who works on DB gun design works for infinity ward

pretty dank tho.

i actually want to see old guns getting tacticool like the grandeur or the Dreiss

The MP400 is AR (family of weapon like M4 and M16) converted to shoot 9mm
we still havent see scope less bolt action maybe because its outdated.

Maybe dual six shooters as a primary weapon. Could be fun with fast mercs like Proxy and Bushwacker would be great as well since it fits his character imo. :slight_smile:

As an example: the dual 1858s from Killing Floor 2

(Mr-Penguin) #4

A 2-round burst or a 4-round burst rifle to bridge the gap between the Dreiss and the BRs and the BRs and ARs respectively.

Honestly, what weapon that could be added doesn’t matter that much. The functionality of the weapon matters much more.

(MisterBadmin) #5

Burst Pistol, just for shits and giggles, also helps bridge a gap between standard pistols and machine pistols.

And if you are curious if there is a real world pistol that can shoot 3 round bursts, why yes there is.

(Your worst knifemare.) #6

Auto shotguns, though a lot less damage per shot compared to regular shotguns.

On Bushwhacker? He’s not a stupid idiot so he wouldn’t go anywhere near dual pistol activity.
Proxy might be justified considering she’s young and cocky, but not Bushwhacker.

But anyways the whole concept of dual pistols is a big fat “no” from me.

I like this idea. I’m not really into another burst rifle (I’d like a scoped one that works best fired in bursts, but not another burst rifle considering they’re already a bridge between an automatic and a semi-automatic) but I really do like the idea of a burst pistol.

But I’m mostly into the idea of reskining one weapon to be a different model instead, like the Skorpion EVO 3 instead of the SMG-9, or the MAT-10 instead of the Empire-9.

Heckler and Koch pretty much dominate the pistol caliber market in DB. It’s a bit bland in my opinion.

  • I’m just curious why you think dual wielding pistols would only be done by “stupid idiots”. Ever heard of costructive criticism? Explain what is wrong with it. You must have a reason to say that it is only for idiots, so why not tell us? :slight_smile:

  • And I’m sorry that I made a wrong assumption but honestly when I see things like: “stupid” and “idiot” as a reaction to a very simple suggestion then I think there is something that triggered this person into saying something like that…

Yeah it is, especially when you read stuff like this…

lemme tell you something, why would you dual wield something if you can be more accurate using 1 weapon?

and giving the gun to Proxy doesnt solve range issue shes facing in comp

TL;DR no need to add something useless.

Why 2? Because you have more firepower.

You can use the sights on the shotguns and smgs if you want to be more accurate but that’s not what the intention of SD was with the faster mercs. They are meant to be fast and be on the move continuously. I personally don’t use iron sights at mid range firefights. Only longer distances, but that’s the territory of the assault rifles and sniper rifles.

I personally think that dual wielded revolvers would be a nice bridge between the short range weapons like the shotguns and the mid range weapons like the smgs.

The dual wielded revolvers would do less damage (but with a higher fire rate) at close range than the shotgun and it would be more useful at mid ranges where you compete with the smgs. Slower fire rate than the smgs but more damage per hit.

So no I don’t think it would be useless tbh. I think it would perfectly fit the faster merc types.

i would love for skins, instead of actual new weapons. like having an M60, or an intervention (the sniper rifle from CoD MW2),

  • AN-94
  • G36
  • FAMAS

lately i’ve been playing a stupid ass fps game called phantom forces on roblox, full of kids and so on,but the gameplay is really okay and the variety of guns in thay game is astonish : http://roblox-phantom-forces.wikia.com/wiki/Weaponry

(GatoCommodore) #15

playing roblox
not Battlefield 4 which has been fully patched and getting free dlc even after BF1 came out

Roblox cant satisfy my desire for Gun P O R N.

(BlackboltLW) #16

Some fictional-ish gun like that Blishlok and SMG-9 would be great. I mean it’s 2020 after all, it’s not all futuristic but technology still marches on

(tominatorx) #17

I recently watched Elysium again and that film actually has some really nice weapon designs. Most are based on the weapons that exist today, but they have a more futuristic look.

Neill Blomkamp always had good weapon design in his movie like for example that Airburst AK or the ChemRail in Elysium. In CHAPPIE theres that yellow M4A1 that i really like.

Oh yeah that’s right! The yellow M4A1 (with the pink clips) Ninja runs around with. That did look fancy. :slight_smile:

And you are right the Chemrail looks great. Not too sci-fi but still a bit futuristic looking.

(added a picture so everyone can see which weapon you meant) :slight_smile:

bought and played a bit Battlefield 3, never gonna touch a similar game, lame ass rockets,tanks and jets, most of the time my deaths werent even caused by guns lol.
If i’m playing an fps game i expect people to challenge me at guns combat.
Not gonna buy a game just to play only the gamemode without vehicles.
