Add 7.62x39 + An iconic pair

[balmy dragon]

Caliber appeared in the first game and would in my opinion make a good addition to the roster, boasting higher damage than 5.56, but less accuracy and more recoil.

To compliment the new caliber I suggest 2 new rifles:

AKM - An iconic rifle, no zombie game is really complete without one, would be full auto with a 30rd mag, heavier than the AR15 and with more recoil, but dealing more damage, would be a stepping stone between the AR and the XM7, allowing the XM7 to be a more rare and powerful rifle worthy of it's experimental and futuristic design. Would also only have access to the suppressor and maybe a flashlight for attachments.

SKS - A classic choice from the first game, the SKS could be a common low tier rifle due to it's immense popularity in the US, would make up for it's fixed 10rd mag and lack of attachments by being lighter than other choices and having a unique bayonet attachment for extra melee damage.

I think these would be a great addition to the game, increasing weapon diversity, adding back a classic from NMRiH1 for OG players, and filling a more niche gap in the roster of rifles.

sks is already coming

[balmy dragon]

Oh cool, I had no idea

Where did they show it off?

[slender coyote]

Placeholder image pre april update

[balmy dragon]

Got a link? I'm curious, I never saw that

[slender coyote]

It is gone, lol. It was only there pre update. You know the three slots for your loadout? There was an icon for the bayoneted SKS there.

[balmy dragon]

Oh. well thats far less than a confirmation lol

[slender coyote]

What do you want man, it is gone XD

[balmy dragon]

RIP

[fossil temple]

i don't have a pic for you but when the feb update came out, the placeholder image for the loadout slots was taken up by an sks model. tbs_jae at the time said something like it was an accidental leak but they left it in as a teaser for the future

[balmy dragon]

Oh nice

Well here's hoping

[fossil temple]

not sure about the akm, but if they're following the route of weapon selection they have to this point, I would guess the vz-58 is likely to be added because like the other recent additions (excluding the sig spear and the upcoming ranch rifle), it was in the first game (i think it was added because one of the devs owned one?)

[balmy dragon]

I would HOPE that most/all the OG guns get added eventually, the Glock, Revolver, 10/22, and FAL are all just too iconic for them not to

[fossil temple]

glock for sure is being added, maxx owns one from memory and it just makes a ton of sense for the setting

[slender coyote]

Lol you saved that just for this occasion?

[muted gulch]

Nope. It was for a separate piece of feedback.

[fossil temple]

coming in clutch

[smoky harbor]

The SKS, and AKM were confirmed a while back I believe, so we should hopefully get them soon!

A list of gun animations a data miner found for nmrih2

In name only but it does seem AKM and SKS are definitely gonna be added

[dusk copper]

Cuz just leaked the entire list back to the devs 💀

[near elbow]

Hey its on the public release so

[dusk copper]

I still think it’s a bit funny.

[dusk copper]

This essentially makes all gun suggestions pretty much null then. They already have a bunch of shit they want to add.

[near elbow]

They could also just be from UE4 and are still in concept stage before being removed.

Thats why I said in name only

But suggestions asking for said weapon the the weapon list they were thinking about adding just supports the idea of adding it

[dusk copper]

I don’t think it really changes much, seeing how most of the new guns are on that list. They already kind of have an idea of what they want it seems.

[dusk copper]

Yeah.

I wonder if they even read any of this.

They probably don’t.

[near elbow]

Probably not but still cool to get people to actively excited about the guns

The one that caught my eye is p90 (its r90)

[dusk copper]

My thing is, adding some guns makes others pointless.

You know what I mean?

[near elbow]

Yea but its likely that we will never see every gun on one map

[dusk copper]

I hope not but given balance, it is a big concern of mine.

[near elbow]

Ye it is, but I trust the devs to cook

[dusk copper]

[elder musk]

they claim they do

[smoky harbor]

If even HALF of these are actually released, this game is gonna have one hell of an awesome arsenal. Especially if the inventory system gets revamped to include them as loadout options eventually.

[balmy dragon]

Oooooooooo, I wonder what the AP85 and CX8 is

[slender coyote]

This explains why they went with generic ammo in the first place. Again, I wouldn't mind it if every gun is implemented with realistic terminal ballistic, no arcadey Back4Blood dogpoop "muh damage drop off" and fluid animation.

[slender coyote]

Most likely the APC and Beretta CX4 9mm SMG.

[balmy dragon]

Fair enough lol

[winter grove]

@near elbow can you datamine the Sensitivity in game and ratio of it's cm/360⁰ at the moment

[near elbow]

@thorny hound did the datamining

[winter grove]

✋️😀✋️ wow, that's quick,

[surreal briar]

In fact, more weapons can be added for the 7.62x39 caliber: SKS, classic AKM, PSA AK-103/104 that can be equipped with attachments, MK-47 MUTANT, Galil for the 7.62 caliber
