Weapon mods, hopes, wishes and speculation

Post » Sat Nov 28, 2015 9:42 pm

We have everything from do want to do not want threads for weapons and armour, but not so much for the mods themselves, so I thought it be interesting to see what mods you hope to see and wish are in, naturally done feel limited to talk about mods for weapons we do know about, if you are confident a weapon will appear in the game, share your musings on what mods it may have.

I'll kick things of by saying I hope a burst fire mod is available, we have already seen that firing full auto is a mod, so it be nice to see a three round burst mode too, to cover all the common modes of fire seen in fps today.

I think a three round burst mod would be cool. One thing I've been wondering: what kind of mods will they have for a knife? Maybe turning a combat knife into something that looks like the trench knife? I'm very curious about knives because they pretty much went all out with baseball bat mods, granted there is more you could do with a baseball bat considering it's basically a stick.

You could poison it I guess. Serrate or elongate the blade. Attach a battery and electrify it like Jingwei. Tape two together end to end and be the lamest Darth Maul ever.

I'd be really surprised if we can't put a bayonet on our shotgun.
:rofl:
That's hilarious!

Games got you covered then, with two different sizes of bayonets no less.

A bayonet on a shotgun makes lots of sense, its an close combat weapon with limited ammo capacity so you like it to finish off enemies or then out of ammo.

I remember a Pawn Stars episode in which they had a sawed off double barrel that came with a bayonet that popped out switchblade style with pull of its own trigger. Thing was a work of art!

I want a Bayonet for my Combat knife. Or you know the ability to craft whatever weapon we want using mashed parts. A rifle barrel here, a shotgun choke there. And a Plasma tank to top it off. I have no idea if it'll work but I'll know in a few seconds. Hehe.

I read somewhere you can get a bayonet for your triple barreled rocket launcher, so it stands to reason your shotgun can get one as well

I'd like an Overclocked Laser Sniper Rifle, a Bayoneted Plasma Shotgun, and a Plasma SMG with an extended magazine... or whatever Plasma weapons use in lieu of a magazine.

I suspect beth will follow classic video game logic, so no silencer for shotguns and revolvers (even tho both are actually possible to do for real)

I don't see why they wouldn't let us mount silencers on revolvers. It would look pretty cool actually.

Like this:

Shotguns would be far more difficult, so I can see them as being the exception.

I want a giant battery I can strap to my laser rifle to turn it into some kind of disintegrator ray that can be fired continuously in one beam.

I'd like to be able to upgrade a revolver into a sniper rifle. Some way to make laser weapons more stealthy too; maybe a beam narrowing module or crystal change so it's less visible (works like a suppressor game mechanics wise).

good news, during the E3 demo the player scrolls by just that, a revolver with a stock, long barrel and scope.

my biggest hope that it is indeed is what they say it is and that with the right perks and material you can make your own individual special gun and that will be as good as any end game unique weapon

Excellent, that is good news, thank you. I've watched the E3 presentation multiple times, but missed that. I'll have to have another look.

I think some kind of supressor option for laser weapons is essential. Other than that, as long as I can build a suppresed sniper variant of the Pipe Rifle, I'll be quite happy.

A mod that turns flamers into plasma throwers or acid spitters that would be pretty cool.

oh Imy didnt knowknow that . i wasnt sure if those mods belonged to the flamer family or the plasma weapons family? Because your going to need a container of some kind to keep the liquid stored in and since plasma rifles dont come with that I assumed that the flamer would be more appropriate. But if its in plasma weaponary i dont mind bring on the face melter!! :)

Agreed, but then I want the suppressor to be just as jury-rigged as the rest of the pipe rifle, so say it's made out of a tincan with a hole in it or something likr that and stuffed with old rags/cloth.

In WW1 the Marines utilized a trenchgun to devestating effect against the Germans at the battle of Belleau Wood. It's where they earned the nickname 'Devildogs' from the Germans and where notable quotes arose as "Come on, you s.o.b.s, do you want to live forever?" and General Pershings famous remark, "The deadliest weapon in the world is a United States Marine and his rifle."

Armed with https://www.proxibid.com/AuctionImages/4292/56440/FullSize/156.jpg, it's no wonder.
