#Sawing Guns Barrels

As far i know this would be the first VR game to include something like this. Being able to cut down a weapon barrel would be useful to increase it's handling in CQB and enclosed scenarios in general.

Key features:

  • Only being able to saw the gun barrel until the point where it is exposed and/or until a point where it wouldn't affect the gun functionality.

I.E: Not being able to cut the gun handguard / gas block

  • The gunshots turning louder by the shorter the barrel turns

Explanation: In real life the shorter a gun barrel is the louder the gunshots becomes since there's less time for the powder to finish burning, making the explosion sound beefier.

  • The muzzle flash turns bigger and brighter

Explanation: this happens due to the same reason that has been explained above.

Why Do We Need This?:

Being a novelty for VR gaming this suggestion fits with the game ideal of being the next step into VR gaming related to physics works and realism.

The attatched images will be some references of how this has been done IRL on the past, and done in different weapon platforms, not only single/double barrel shotguns which are the most common guns to see with this sort of hand-made modifications. They will show the normal gun followed by the modified shorter version.

So incredibly peeeak

Which will make it so much more useful in close quarter combat

# tired cave Wait, spread also gets higher the shorter the barrel

Yeah, still i don't want them to specifically change the weapon stats because that sounds like a real pain in the ass to make and i want this suggesiton to actually be added either by devs or modders, and asking for a modular floating modification of the stats having on mind the percentage of the barrel that a player cut down from the gun sounds just like too much work

It’s just one value that gets changed based on the barrel geometry, that should be possible.

I also think this would be a quite immersive way to prep for a specific fight in close quarters, similar to what we see in James Bond sky fall

# tired cave Why only barely, it’s quite intuitive

close quarter is usually 1 room of distance, let's say that the standard size of a room is 15 feet long in every direction, a shotgun with buckshot won't spread further than a human chest diameter at that distance

#

this obviously is a really general thing, but i strongly doubt to see more than 2-3 types of shotgun shells in this game, (buckshot, slug, and only maybe birdshot) so i don't see the need to deepen onto my explanation of why a shotgun barrel lenght would barely affect the spreading of the ammo inside a room

Let us explode ourselves!!

#

But actually, imagine if there was a setting where you could toggle “safe sawing” on and off

If you had it off you could saw down a gun until it basically just explodes

rose idol
#

eh, no gun can really explode for a shorter barrel

#

that'd actually kinda put less pressure on the gun

#

if you cut short enough to some guns tho, it will make the gun to stop working because you will cut something important like a recoil spring or gas tube

#

I’d like gamemodes where we have to conceal guns, like a hitman sort of mode ig?

So its a TTT but instead of killing everyone You just kill one?

wary knoll
rose idol
#

Sounds... Kinda boring, just make a TTT gamemode at that point lol

#

Like what would the others players do while then?

wary knoll
rose idol
#

Yeah, no. Id love to see a TTT tho

Literally what You described but the others has to find out who the murderer is and kill him before he kills everyone else

#

Thats the Main funny thing, not knowing who to trust

wary knoll
#

I see

#

Idk, it would just be fun to whip out a gun, pop someone a few times and then keep walking

Wonder what the first gun I’d saw would be 🤔

I need a sawed sniper rifle to point blank people with. The sound completely deafens me but it's ok because that just means the next one won't hurt my ears

BUMP cuz i'm cool

This is literally the one...
Oops and lol

sawn off lmg would go hard

Slight accuracy decrease because of less rifling 💯
