the newer version is quite realistic, i dont want to go into any more depth till release
oh and terrain rape still exists but its been minimised,
and i dont want to do the 2 particles thing because particle spread is currently playing a small part in balancing weapons

but thanks for the suggestions.
btw development is nearing a close atm im just waiting for the last few sprites
if you want previews i can take some screen shots.

Particle spread can always be substituted by increasing the shakerange.

well the shakerange varies from weapon to weapon but generally the particle spread is what im using to keep weapons in the same class, eg assualt rifle or pistol
similar in some way
it might all change after ive got all the stuff ready but atm me and psyk323 just wanna get stuff polished and then release

Hey Dude, you really have talent but the M4A1 is too powerful.
The M4A1 is like automatic sniper but isnt,either way good job dude you deserve balls of steel too:D

The alt fires look pretty nice, can you elaborate on what the dropcrate does?
By the way, you might want to give some AirResistance to the guns, it might look better.

Req

This guns as a unbuyable "Base" for basic weapons with settable damage, rof, range, bullet type, explosion power, armor piercing etc. etc.

Because M4 is same as AK47 except sprite, rof, damage, spread and alt fires.

So...it's not the same at all? It's the same, except for all the stats and appearance, is what you just said.

I'm not Cortex Command scripting god, but i think what i wrote
here - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10801452/Speculations.txt
is possible.

The old version all the code is based on the actual velocity and damage from MW2, and all the guns in MW2 are tbh very samey
and also excessively weak
The new version has many great things added to combat this
such as many alternate fire modes for weapons which make them more general and usefull as primary firearms
without so much of the need for other weapons to combat tank type characters

EDIT:
ill let you in on a big secret
in the new version the actual code that affects
has COMPLETELY changed, and instead of being an exact replica of stats from the MW2 game
i have used real life stats, such as those on this website
this i think you will find makes the weapons fascinating to use, aswell as suprisingly well balanced
other things which have changed are shotguns are no longer as rapey because their range has been greatly reduced.
oh and that care package box drops from the sky on a parachute

NEW VERSION OUT!
Had this version finished for quite a while but we were hoping to get it out completely finished.
Although schoolwork got in the way for both me and Psyk.

#####
New weapons and things include
A "care package" drop crate,

new fire modes for the,
AK47, semi and grenade
M4A1, grenade
Glock18, semi
AA12 autoshotgun, semi

new weapons
RG-6 grenade launcher
Hand Grenade

A completely Redone gameplay
now instead of following statistics from Call of Duty MW2, all the weapons are based on their real life counterparts and statistics, this includes,

real life weight
real life speed
real life penetration
real life fire speed
real life clip weight
realistic grenades
real life reload speed (based on reload videos)
real life zoom range (based on real life effective range /2)

the only non true thing balancing the weapons atm is the bullet weight and this is still based loosely on their real life weight.

explosives particularly are very very volitile,
and youll see how fire modes changes this to make all weapons generally good all rounders,
for example assualt rifles are slightly more accurate and have a longer zoom range in semi auto.
