Blaster Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 (edited) There is a gap between the Scar and its scope and the M99 and its scope. I would like to see two weapons fill this gap. 1. A bolt action sniper rifle. This would be a smaller caliber than the 50 cal m99, like a .308. It would have a slightly weaker scope than the M99. But it would have a faster rate of fire but not as fast as a semi auto. 2. A weapon thats a little better long range than the SCAR but not as good as a pure sniper rifle. It would have a better scope than the SCAR has, but it could only shoot in single shot and three shot burst, not full auto. I would also like to see the MR-C improved somehow but not to make it over powering in the game. Edited June 19, 2006 by Blaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeystick Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 A lighter sniper rifle than the M99 and the SCAR would be good enough for me. Any suggestions on a light sniper rifle? I barely know anything about weapons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sui317 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 they only would have to put in a mini scope (acog or 4x32/6x32) put it on mr-c or scar and voila we have the void filled but a dedicated weapon would be nice, svd like ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeroalpha Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Blaster has a good point. An extra 2 sniper rifles would make a lot of sense in the coop world. In the fullness of time when the coop aspect of the game is sorted we hope to see coop tournies start to appear. When I spoke to Bo about the number of weapons he seemed quite keen that the modding community would add to the game in a big way. This is a good thing, however there is a down side. Coop tournies are often as not (and IMHO, best) run with the game as it ships without mods. Considering this, it would be good to see a scope option for the SCAR that would equate to an updated SR25. The realistic application of a fixed magnification that GRAW uses would balance things quite well. I also feel that there is a place for a bolt action sniper rifle of the L96A1 type, with a higher ammo count than the M99, as an aside, personally I feel that the manual reload of sniper rifles is a good thing! Personally I have never been a massive fan of the “more is better†philosophy when it comes to weapons in game. I want to have the right tools for the job and train with them. Thoughts?

Shadow_ASP Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Personally I think 4 more weapons would do nicely. A larger caliber sidearm : HK MK23. A semi-auto and lighter sniper rifle : HK PSG1. An SMG that packs more punch : HK UMP45. A more commonly used rifle used today : M16 oh heck, just give me a HK G36 or G3A3. I really like HKs toys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to be able to use the G36, and we do need another 7.62 rifle, as well as a .40 or .45 cal pistol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mig1 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 sui317 is right. Just give us an ACOG. Although it would be cool to have all the AI weapons too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pz3 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 add acogs as second type of combat sight add weapons m468 mk12 mk23 MK14 would kind of be a cool edition but not sure if it would fit in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lead Salad Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 The game needs a lot more weapons, the few it has is one of the biggest turnoffs....more of everything-sniper rifles, belt-fed MG's, SMG's, you name it. If the game is going to be modded, then generally the orginal intent of time and the story are completely discarded to me; therefore weapons that soldiers use now should emerge. And for god's sake, different reports from weapons-that is key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisgruntledArchitect Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Frankly, I'd be happier if there were only a few more options in terms of weapons/mods, and if the existing weapons were instead re-tooled to provide a bit more variety. Right now, I feel like we've got a sniper rifle, an LMG, (3) identical assault rifles and (1) really weak but stable rifle. Sure, the SCAR-H is a tiny bit more powerful, and a tiny bit less stable . . . make it kick like a mule, drop people in 1 shot, and give it an option for a fixed zoom scope, so it can be the semi-auto sniper/designated marksman rifle. Make the fictional rifle worthwhile . . . somehow. All I see on servers are SCAR-Ls, M8s, one guy with a sniper rifle, and occasionally an Mk48, when somebody's rich and has a phobia of reloading. Rather than 20 assault rifles to choose from, I'd rather have 5 that everyone can find a use for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viiiper Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 What are the possibilities for the old GR1 weapons? seeing Ubi have announced that the game modes are to be brought in from GR1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lipoff Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Oh I also forgot to add to my list (m14 DMR, M16A4, M4A1, MEU(SOC) .45) I also think that the SAM R would be a cool rifle to add A cool sniper rifle with accurate 5.56mm precision http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3b/MEU_SAMR.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f...per-rifle-2.jpg http://www.dogfightink.com/sam-r.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiberatorEbola Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I'll be seriously ###### off if they add the M16 or M4 to this game. I will be even more ###### off if we are still using those rifles in 7 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Sniper rifle should be like the current Marine and Army Sniper rifle. Bolt action .308 and fairly decent 3x10x44 scope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruusher_AS Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 In the fullness of time when the coop aspect of the game is sorted we hope to see coop tournies start to appear. Coop Tournaments. Now here's two words that I like. The ability to mod missions. To have the ability to go in and complete certain objectives in the map. I hope the game editor will give the scripters and modders that opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice selection. This game needs to drop the M8 which has not been selected and never will be selected by the US Army and possibly even the MRC which is nothing more than a concept rifle and get back the fan favourites and a little bit of reality. The current selection is just too small Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisgruntledArchitect Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Well, let's all take a dose of 'realism,' here. They're not going to remove the M8 or the MR-C; they're not going to remove anything, because all anyone has been doing is asking for more of this or that. Furthermore, it's unlikely and inappropriate for the devs to revamp the arsenal to represent only current, in-use weapons; the game is set in the future, and while there may be issues with some of the weapons shown, it would be contrary to the design intent of the game to replace the future weapons set with a contemporary one. Yes, it's true that all of the weapons everyone is clamoring for might very well be in use in 2013. It's also likely that nobody will have cameras or mini projectors on their helmets by then. At this point, we're back to demanding that GRAW be patched to GR1, and it's simply not happening. Possibly by modders, but not by the devs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viiiper Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Although it will never be in this game, the AK-47 is coming to 60 years old and it's one of the most popular automatic in the world in 2006. It would be good to have a few extra weapons, some of the latest and a couple of the classics, my personal adds are: M82A1, SVD Dragunov, OICW, M60 7.62x51mm, but it will never happen.
