ADD SUPPRESSORS / SILENCERS

[crisp lark]

I know this topic has been drove into the ground but I have a way to make it balanced

With these suppressors, make the player have to buy a different one for each caliber, or spend more to have a range on them.
Another thing is suppressors arn’t that quite, so only have it reduce animals range of spooking by 50-100 meters
And lastly, make them cost enough so it’s not easy to acquire, I’m talking like 20k per suppressor, and if you want to make it more real, make it take 4 months to get it (this is a joke)

And don’t say hunting with suppressors is realistic, as most of Europe, Africa and the US use suppressors.

@true star just curious why did you downvote, I want to hear your opinion on this topic

[true star]

It seems to me that a silencer in this game would be superfluous, the game is already quite simple with certain perks. I wouldn’t want the game to turn from an arcade hunting simulator into just a shooting gallery, where animals standing 100 meters away from you won’t even move😤

This game already has to many broken mechanics and bugs, we don't need another excuse for them to screw with spook distance new mechanics. The guns don't even work right after 5 years

The problem I have with suppressors is that it would turn the game into nothing but a shooting gallery. It would make it FAR too easy.

[crisp lark]

I agree, that’s why it only needs to be reduced by like 50 yards

The game would become more and more like this.

The suppressors could also just eliminate the “outer spook range” where animals only go alert/alarmed. Would be useful and not overpowered. That’s how I think they should do it.

[neat thicket]

I think that’s just about the only way that it could or should work. Otherwise it would simply be an OP thing.

[cursive chasm]

With all the "animal spooking" updates they've been having they will never add this

[crisp lark]

But you also have to think about the air gun, it acts quiet and spooks animals less

[crisp lark]

Completely agree, just something something that can dampen the sound just a little, not Hollywood quiet or anything

[versed quail]

How about this as a compromise •The audio be similar to the .22lr Armalite (it already sounds suppressed over a .22 snap). •Hunting stress is between a bow and rifle still allowing the bow to be used. •Also 15k-20k seems fair to me for ea. appropriate weapon. •This would also need to req. a weapon score to unlock as well.

If it does more than that I'll have to agree it would be too OP and render the bow useless and the 45pcp should be the same stress as well & not completely silent or render the same stress as a rifle ignition bc it is a 45cal. 50/72cal. Pcp's would defn. be the same as a rifle shot.

people love to forget the vasquez cyclone .45 already works this way.

[crisp lark]

Agreed, I use the air gun a lot and it’s amazing for deer, It’s also fun to use on charging buffaloes, if you hit them in the head, they drop on the spot, if they do add suppressor just make it like the air gun but a bit louder

[plush sandal]

I don't think this needs to be too difficult. A moderator ("silencer") would lessen the spook radius and shorten the time (identical to the Vasquez Cyclone .45 air rifle that we have now) at the "cost" of adding 1 unit of weight (i.e., it will "cost" you a caller and a scope, for example). It might not work on all weapons either.
