Do you really need maximum allowable clips for your guns. In any one round I have never went throught more than 3 clips on a P90. Usually only using 2. My pistol backup I never go through more than 2 usually only 1. If you hit what you aim for rather than spraying in the general direction you wouldnt need as much ammo...Not that you do that...thats a generalization....but really for a 4 minute average match do you need 225 rounds in one gun and 45 in another

Yeah I never take full clips. The most clips I take for a gun is the mp5 with 4, since that sucker really drains fast. The p90 I go with 2 and the AK I go with 2 also since I have the room. M16 I take 3.

But the shotty...At 2 lbs a box and 5 shots a box, thats the WORST ratio ever. I think its a mistake too since the shotshell box description says '8 shells per box' but its only 5.

Plus when I use the shotty I fire all 8 shots off in like 4 seconds.

Which is why I don tuse the shotty I guess.

Heh, I buy my shells in boxes of 25 at Wall-Mart

 

[DallasStarsRule]

and how much do they weigh?

 

[yurch]

Not that heavy.
I would carry my shells in a pouch, not in the actual boxes they came in. I think the bulk is supposed to represent awkwardness, not just wieght. (In both cases, the robar is NOT heavy enough )

 

[Lt.Col.BoyHitsCar]

i'd have to say my 4 load outs are as follows.

long range:
m-16+acog+2clips
DE+3 clips
1 gren

mid-range:
sig+3 clips
m9+2 clips
2 grens
kabar

cqb #1:
shotty+full ammo
m9+3 clips
1 gren

cqb #2:
mp5+3 clips
DE+2 clips
3 gren(i think?)

personally i dont like multiple primary weapons especially when it contains a combo including the p90 or ak. both are for spamming in my opinion, if you cant kill in 30 rounds then you dont deserve to get the kill.

[DallasStarsRule]

nice loadouts mostly, but i just dont like the sig

Its auto is more pathetic than the m16 burst speed and the m16 has cooler attachments and is easier to hip i think

i just cant think of anything the sig can do that a m16, or for that matter a AK can't

I'd go with the AK instead of a sig for mid range. It kills in 2 shots also, is VERY accurate, and is pretty easy to handle. also The AK you can use in CQB situations too. P90 for mid range is also good because the p90 sights act almost like a acog, though the gun is underpowered with the silencer on


BTW i cant believe this thread still lives...but now that I also play RA I guess I can give my opinion more fully

 

[SoSilencer]

M9, 3 mags
2 Grenades

You don't need anything else.

Of course sometimes I'll drop the amount of M9 mags to 2, and take an mp5 w/3 mages or a p90 w/2 mags. No fancy scopes or grenade launchers here.

 

[DallasStarsRule]

The p90 is excellent. I cannot overemphasize this. Other than the fact its underpowered, which makes it neccesary to shoot at the head, its the most versatile and, in my opinion, best gun. Its a blend of AK and MP5 and the sights function almost as well as an ACOG.

Flashlight is cool but of limited use.

 

[TheSmisker]

Too excellent in my op. I mean you can snipe with the thaing, whearas a 5.56 should be more reliable at that range. I do use it frequently though... specially Chasm which involves every kind of range possible.

I wish they make me binoculars soon, sparing me of ACOG/P90

 

[DallasStarsRule]

The only drawbacks to the p90 in my opinion is that 1)it may be the hardest gun to learn as a beginner so many people get turned off by it (and the whole suppresor dealy) and 2)the sights make it neccesary to keep your view pointed down to see everything, and when you do see a hostile you need to point it back up, which takes another half second before you can hit them.

That or you chance being surprised from a guy standing right in front of you.

Either that or Hip the thing, which is damn near impossible because while you may hit them you sure as hell wont hit them enough probably.

 

[cl0secall]

How hard is it for someone to make a binoculars mutator??

I wonder....

 

[DallasStarsRule]

I would think itd be easy. You already have the robar's zoom scope so you'd just make another gun identical to that with a different model or something. And change the weight.

Thats just my reasoning, I have no idea how to actually do it.

 

[cl0secall]

yea. there's actually a tutorial on Chimeric on making a zoomable weapon. My question is, should the binoculars zoom? if so, how much? more or less than the robar? more or less than the PSG?

I have absolutely no skills, or software in modeling or skinning though, so on that I'll have to improvise. I think i'll try to make the binoculars kind of a hybrid between the knife and robar, but without causing damage.

 

[cl0secall]

I have a prototype version of a Binocular Mutator ready, but it's not really useful at this point. I had trouble looking around while "zoomed in" and it doesn't zoom properly. I'll keep at it, but I'll bet this was the easy part.

 

[DallasStarsRule]

i was thinking copying the robar files, editing it so it weighs 1 lb, removing the actual model of the gun, and disabling the trigger.

Like you though I have no idea how to do this. then again I dont think binoculars are THAT important, you can always improvise.

 

[Shoany]

Loadouts:

On RA (which i play almost exclusively now):
SIG551 w/ ACOG (or w/o), 2 mags
5-7, 2 mags
Ka-Bar
1 nade (that gets used in about 1/100 games)

Non-RA:
M3S90 on pump (really hope they don't take pump away), 2 uh... mags
Robar, 1 mag
Ka-Bar
1 nade

SF made me angry because they raped my unrealistic shotgun to obsoletion (I really enjoyed sniping with it... it made people angry). INF's shotgun might be realistic or unrealistic (hell I've never fired one) but I love the feel of it. Of course, I never really use it anymore... but no matter.

Hurray for afa2 and RA. They're my heroes. I like it when the bullets go where the crosshair's pointing.

 

[DallasStarsRule]

I hate sigs. But I like your robar/shotgun combination though.

 

[recon1337]

RA: m16 w/nade & 4 mags
5-7 & 3 mags

MUF90 silenced & 2 mags
mp5 silenced & 3 mags
2 nades
-great for close quarter and ambush. spray p90, throw it away, shoot mp5. i think its faster the throw it than to switch weapons....

 

[recon1337]

about those matrix mutators, matrixMoves and lazy matrix, those links are broken. BTW do they work with INF?
