#

SK-VCT should just be CROC - Vecta (or vector)

Because fuck it sega wouldn’t copyright that shit and you could keep the name

hot wolf
#

Most names are cool, like

ACR > MCR
AK74 > MK74M
GROZA > STORM
KRISS VECTOR > V45
ULTIMAX100 > MAX100
Scorpion EVO > SKEVO

but some other feels out of place. I really think they should look similar to their original names, so that you can easily tell which gun is which with a minimal effort of thinking.

SVD > SVE-M ?
Deagle > AE-50 ?
FAMAS > VARSE ?
MSR > ABAR ?

C4-A1 is not ideal for me also, idk, sounds strange.

real pendant
#

SVE-M sounds fine i think

hot wolf
#

well yeah.. maybe

real pendant
#

Famast was one of the hardest.

Deagle -> AE50 makes most sense, like, it literally shoots .50 Action Express

hot wolf
#

FAL > BR FAR is also strange.
FL-AR would be much better imo

coral briar

What if we rename Groza into Grom

DE-50

Well, if devs fine with it - i'm fine too

hot wolf
#

DGL-50 or smth also can work. Tho DE-50 sounds more cool I'd say

coral briar
real pendant
#

f2k? Can cause issues.
GAU?
SCR-H?
RK5C?

SVM-98 it's the same name anyway
LN96 meh
Vector can cause issues
Ultimax can cause issues
MG49 ?
HB-300 can cause issues
PDW90/PN-90/P-9T meh

coral briar
#

How can F2K and HB-300 cause issues

real pendant
#

F2k = f2000 literally

coral briar
#

Lawyers too dumb to notice

real pendant
#

Well, HB-300 may not cause issues, but still meh option. Ngl it's hard to do appropriate name

real pendant
#

anyway, me and ami suggested good variants

livid gate
#

Ill just add on something that sounds better

#

And resend

real pendant
#

up to you to decide

#

just don't make it full cringe like rk5c

To have some sort of system behind it instead of randomly slapping letters

#

But yea i can agree that first letters aren’t making names fancier

fresh night

Military designations

#

Half the HK brand weapons already used the German military designation, the only one that doesn’t iirc is the HK419, which doesn’t exist, it’s the 416. Even then, 416 would work since multiple country’s military designated it the 416

#

Desert Eagle-> Dune-hawk
Desert Eagle-> dump-hawk
Desert Eagle-> sand-hawk

#

Honey Badger -> Brock Nectar

#

Uniqa

#

#

Ultimax -> Minimax

#

fal -> Rise
ASVAL -> Valace

#

scorpion -> venomous crawler

Vector -> Scalar

#

Is there even cases where games got in trouble for using the correct weapon name?? Dont really see how this is necessary if "bigger" name studios just kept everything the same as irl

#

Or at the very least, isnt guns like the MP5 and M4A1 okay to use because they're military designations? I can see why you might wanna change the HK or AKs, but like??? Also regarding stuff like glock they seem to be fine w/ ppl using the same name as well

coral briar
#

Glock and HK went after games, including phantom forces on roblox

#

Techically you can get the correct names, but thats gonna cost a shit ton of money now that gun manufacturers know how much games can make

opaque reef
#

its a g3 platform

opaque reef
#

m4a1 is though

#

aks dont need it though

#

ak is not copyrighted

#

kalashnikov does not give a fuck

#

glock DEFINITELY does

sterile idol
#

Seidel-419 for the HK (third HK founder)

#

Deagle isn’t trademarked no?

coral briar
#

Pretty sure it is

sterile idol
#

Deagle or desert eagle

coral briar
#

Thats... the same gun

sterile idol
#

Different name though

#

Isn’t that the whole point

coral briar
#

Its not different enough

sterile idol
#

Deagle is actually trademarked now lol

#

It was different enough for them to file a new one

opaque reef
opaque reef
#

Fr?

coral briar
opaque reef
#

But

#

They didn’t come up with the name deagle

#

You can’t just copyright something you didn’t come up with

#

That’s like the inventor of helicopters copyrighting “chopper”

opaque reef
#

Or call it m419

sterile idol
# opaque reef Wait what

2 websites that I checked say that it was at least filed, one says that it was approved 3rd June 2025

#

US patent and trademark law is stupid

#

Then let’s call it the Sahara .50

#

50 AE

#

What round is the unica chamber in, cus we can just do some like 357 magnum or whatever round it is.

stray grove
#

Well which one in the game.

#

Cus just say the round, then magnum since that’s the cartridge type

#

We also don’t have to rename the m4 as courts already determined that m4 is generic and is in public use. Case is Colt Defense LLC v. Bushmaster Firearms, Inc.,

#

Colt Defense LLC v. Bushmaster Firearms, Inc.,

real pendant
#

Yea we can use M4 then

stray grove
#

Wanted to link but can’t, anyway that’s the case name, judge ruled in favor of bushmaster that m4 is a generic term and cannot be trademark enforced.

opaque reef
#

Yeah

#

M4a1 simply refers to any fully automatic select fire 5.56 ar 15 right

#

With m4 being for burst fire

stray grove
#

AR-15 is a copyrighted term, but m4 refers to a class of lightweight, gas operated, foldable stock rifles

opaque reef
#

Well

#

Specifically burst fire

torpid shoal
real pendant
#

AS VAL for example

opaque reef
#

Here’s another way to know if it can be named the real name

#

Did call of duty name it the real name

#

Recent call of duty

real pendant
#

It literally means “Special Rifle” and “Val” is just “Shaft”

opaque reef
#

In mw2019 the m4a1 uses the real name but most other weapons don’t

real pendant
#

Same applies to lots of Hk stuff

opaque reef
#

Also ak is not copyrighted so they can use ak 74

stray grove
#

Any G series is gewehr which is Gun

real pendant
#

Sg = sturmgewehr, mp = macninepistole

real pendant
stray grove
#

HK has a trademark on MP5 specifically, but not the military designations like MP5N (Us navy designation)

#

Call the Glock the Mark 23, that’s what the US military calls it

#

Usp can also be called Mark 27

real pendant
#

We could use this rule of thumb everywhere but it’s a bit dumb

#

For usp/glock only? Yea maybe

stray grove
#

It gets murky for guns not adopted by military like deagle or the honey badger, those might require made up names

real pendant
#

Russian guns also have unified Grau marking like 6G30 or something like that and in theory we can use it to name our weapons

stray grove
#

But then again we could call the deagle a 50 AE

real pendant
stray grove
#

FAMAS G2 is the French designation

#

So that

real pendant
#

Famas is official name

#

So, no :D

stray grove
#

Well csgo has been using for what 20 years without issue so idk if it matters

real pendant
#

“MAS” part stands for manufacturer by the way

stray grove
#

Ik*

real pendant
#

Fusil d'Assaut de la Manufacture d'Armes de St-Étienne

#

“Weapon manufacturer from St-Étienne”

#

FAMAS was added to cs in 2003, only came to cod in 2010

Okay so fun fact, the company MAS is owned by the French government now

So maybe that changes stuff

Basically MAS ceased to exist when it was acquired by Frances government owned defense organization GIAT, which became Nexter

Which is now KNDS France

Had em swapped, mark 23 is usp, mark 27 is Glock

Yeah

Except mark 23 is not usp

The mk23 is a different gun

#

Very similar

#

It’s just bigger lol

#

The mk23 is just a big usp

stray grove

Grown up version

opaque reef
#

Yeah

stray grove
#

Why not make usp slightly bigger in game and call it the mark23 problem solved

opaque reef
#

Mp7 could be called the pdw 4.6 or the smg7

#

Mp means machine pistol which is an outdated term for submachine gun so smg7 works

stray grove
#

Diff between machine pistol and smg is a stock in us definitions iirc

opaque reef
#

MP is what they called smgs in ww2 and they just never stopped calling them that

#

Which is why we have the mp5 and mp7

#

And the p90 could be the pdw 5.7

#

Ok I’ll do a full list

#

I have some good ideas

According to what I found a airsoft company called CYBERGUN tried to Trademark Ak-47 and Ak-74 and has had both of their trademarks canceled.

You need to provide proof

They still somehow own the trademark ak-74 in the UK

But not all

#

Grau indexes are cringe, let’s be honest

stray grove
#

If the unica is a 357 just call it the .357 Magnum revolver.

real pendant
#

Or .44 magnum

#

Doesn’t really matter

stray grove
#

Depends on what round they modeled in game

#

Either way just slap a magnum at the end of the round and whala

real pendant
stray grove
#

AK-74 can probably remain the old name or just shorten it to AK and leave it at that

coral briar
#

So we can have more 357 revolvers in the future

stray grove
#

Or do it as a 44 and have another be a 357

#

It can use the other variants

real pendant
#

Why not rosar tho

stray grove
#

There’s plenty of magnums to go around

coral briar
real pendant
stray grove
#

I doubt that they want multiple magnums in the same cartridge as I feel unless the design is significant different between them, they wouldn’t be unique anyway

real pendant
#

If we want unique stuff we need .500 nitro express revolver

stray grove
#

Like the rhino being a barrel on the bottom makes it different

stray grove
coral briar
real pendant
#

Well, not 3ft long, but something like 500 magnum with ≈70 dmg/round

coral briar
#

Ironically it would be more unique to have a normal revolver in the game

real pendant
#

Yes, actually

stray grove
#

I guess I missed the unica also being a low bore

#

So yea we could do a high bore on a 44 or smth

#

Add some spice, higher damage than unica or rhino, but more recoil or smth

#

And just use 44 magnum as the name

#

We could also call the ssg 69 the scout. It’s a decent slang for it.

#

Scout 69 (edited: had wrong number)

#

Reference to the CS slang for their ssg 08

The beta introduced changes to weapon names.
It would be nice if @winter solstice when the update goes official, there would be a txt file in the Battlebit folder, for example called weaponstxt, so that we could put the names of the weapons as they are now. That way, they would not infringe any copyright and, at the same time, it would allow us to continue using the previous names, just as was done with the languages, where there was a .txt file that we could edit and translate into the language we wanted.

M4, M9, M14, M249, and M110 should probably be fine since M4, M9, M249, M110 are the actual military designations and thus public domain.

winged cedar

#

My 2 cents in the mater is that the current name scheme is not systematic. If it were all to follow the same system it would be easier to understand what the guns are referencing. Either cutting down the names- or replacing the tail end of the number/lettering to keep the starting syllables the same would make it a lot easier to understand for people, as the short forms of these weapons can still be spoken the same without licensing issues. Thus removing word scrambling confusion & giving a lot of combinations to avoid potential issues later on.

Examples:
M4-A1 'Emm four eh one' to, M4-B2 'Emm four bee tu'
M249 'Emm too for nine' to, M259 'Emm too five nine'
