The commercial for this game and another video show buddy run'n with two pistols and shooting with two pistols but i have a level 20 character and see no duel pistols. Im not amused

I thought this was going to be about people standing off at 20 paces...

Anyway... I never saw anything with akimbo guns, but I guess I didn't see all the ads. Parkouring with a gun in each hand is pretty difficult I bet.

Hes talking about the cinematic trailer.

@OP:
I could make a huge list of things that appeared in the cinematic tralier if you like, you should never take them as an accurate representation of a game, espeically one that was created a year before the game was released.

Its "dual" and its a dumb concept.

Thanks SD for not include dumb dual wield crap.

Also I'm sure you saw the cinematic. Cinematics aren't always accurate towards actual gameplay. Its more for presentation to generate interest in the game.

I wouldnt mind dual pistols being added... just make them crap so all the people that use them can be immediately marked as noobs =P

I don't know. Dual pistols would be kind of cool, possibly just as a bragging rights reward with poor stats/accuracy.

They could make a weapon that is dual pistols and only dual pistols and it should be fine. Would get around the issues of balancing a weapon for both single and dual wielding.

This.


But I'm all for http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vule3jSpAc0.

Wouldnt it work more like a hi cap mag? You could put it under that option as it would be purely aesthetic. You'd be able to fire more shots, alternating shots between the pistols in each hand, but nerf your reload time. Customization, boom! lol Although the whole off hand grenade thing might suffer. hmmmmm <_<

I HAVE A FIENDISH PLAN! (It wouldn't be a good idea to do it if they put it in, but that's why it would probably work)

Make it so you can equip a pistol as primary, and when you switch to your secondary you'll dual-wield the pistol and the other weapon. If you do this, melee does nothing, and you'll have a -50% modifier to accuracy and stability on both weapons, and instead of ADS, you fire the pistol.

Heavies wouldn't be able to take a Heavy weapon with dual-wield, because they have to take a pistol as Primary. Mediums would be restricted to Light weapons only, and Lights could only do dual pistols.

A Heavy could to AR/pistol though, which might be interesting...
