Praise the Devs and Pass the Ammo: We got M1911s!

Post » Tue Mar 15, 2011 1:29 am

I haven't noticed much traction on the other threads about this so I'll make it as clear as a bell: The new screenshot of the Burned Man shows him with a pile, and I mean pile, of Colt M1911s. That makes me one happy Gunny. :celebration: So, the questions are:

A) What is it chambered in? I bet 10mm, just for the sake of simplicity. I doubt they would add another cartridge to the game.

2) What are they gonna call it? My bet is either on "Government Pistol" or "Military Sidearm"

Other) How powerful is it gonna be. One thing Josh said about not including the M1911 in the base game was how to tier the .45ACP round in with the other pistol rounds. He didn't want to make it a weak round, ala 9mm, nor make it stronger than the 10mm. But since DLC weapons seem to get a free pass on realistic balance, ie: the short barrel police pistol does a ton more damage than it's bigger .357 Revolver cousin, I think this is a way to give us a real powerful M1911, one that'd please folks like me, without having to worry so much about *why* it's more powerful than, say, a regular 10mm. I bet it will be more powerful than the 10mm, about halfway between the 10mm and the 12.7mm. Around 32 DAM, just a bit less than the .44 Mag.

First thing I'm doing in two weeks is finding out where those guns are, stealing one for myself, and proceed to never use another pistol in the game again.
If I'm not allowed to do that, I will keep playing until I can find one.
My number one personal goal for HH is "Find an M1911".

They'll probably call it a Colt 45 and the mod for it is probably a suppressor :flamed:

I can praise the Devs for this but I can't justify other actions that have been done.

Most likely gonna be called Colt Pistol or Military Pistol.
I wonder how it would look while I'm aiming in. A very big and hard to use (10mm Pistol aimer) aimer or just a simple, narrow, even aimer (like the 9mm pistol aimer, but flatter and smaller).
I also wonder how the fire rate would work out. Like the 9mm Pistol (not that fast, but bearable) or as fast as you can pull the trigger....or something in between, like the Patched Service Rifle with Upgraded Springs.

Other estimates
Weight: 2.5 lbs
STR Req: 4 or 5
Skill needed: 50 or 75
Clip amount: 7, just 7 that's what it has to be.
DAM: 34
Spread: 0.6
Fire Rate: 2
AP Usage: 22

You're not thinking they are bringing WWII weapons in this add-on, right?
We're not gonna have the Springfield M1903 or something in this addon.

I'm thinking along the same lines as gunny a suped up 10mm probably also requiring a higher skill like 50 or 75 to kinda compensate for the increased damage that it better do glad to see it finally made it in the game.

Looks like stock blade and notch sight setup. That pic is now my desktop, so I can look at it all I want. :celebration: I like your other estimates. That's just about where I guess for everything.

Yeah. Already confirmed: M1917 Enfield, M2 Hyde SMG, M50 Reising, M1 Carbine and M1941 Johnson. Like, I wish.

I wonder if Graham will have the unique version of it.....

Oh, he's sooooooooo dead.

Yes. :foodndrink:

If it's in a larger caliber, it should have a slower ROF. But remember: DLC weapons have magic powers.

Alright, looks like Maria is going to be getting replaced by this little beauty. Now we can only hope they add in another sweet gun, maybe something designed by Browning.. who was in fact Mormon and lived in Utah. :D
Seriously, can't wait to get my hands on one of these, even if it means stealing it from Graham who I will most likely end up siding with for the sole purpose of him being so damn awesome.

Graham is about to be the Robbed Man, Cass and I are getting some new toys (if there's a unique version, it's mine of course). Might even steal his vest, hopefully without the nasty bandages...

I think if they added the Tommy gun it would be reason enough to put out the .45ACP.

There are several ammo types that only have two guns. .22 has the pistol and smg. 12.7 has pistol and smg 50mg is only the Anti-Materiel Rife etc.

I also see a pattern in the two weapons per one ammo type. A pistol (M1911) and a SMG (Thompson). I'm hoping they use the gangster version of the Thompson instead of the military version.
