Alternative Ammo?

incendiary , hollowpoint, no frag rounds pls they fo noobs,

 

I'd love to see the extremely scarce jacketed hollow-point with the ranger claws... I'd also give my left nut to get a white phosphorous grenade.

 

I think thats called an incendiary grenade

 

How about one or two flash grenades? They'd burn the metro-citizens' eyes, since they live in perpetual semi-darkness.

 

Kinda OP since most metro dwellers live close to eachother D:

 

Does sound like a good idea I saw once a guy that made this long slug(solid projectile instead of small solid balls) for his shotgun it was like 4-5 inches long(the slug itself not the shell, in case you are not a gun nut its usually meassured in millimetres) so maybe something like that for the shotguns the revolver shotgun would need some modification for them to work though.

 

Or Molotov, I'm sure I've seen it in the gameplay video, if so we need to talk about it more.

But anyway Yeah I'd like to see some new rounds! made by the crazy people of the Metro, More for the shotgun I say.

 

I like the system from Metro 2033. If it's not broken, don't fix it.

 

I'm actually very exicted about the flame grenades. It'll be a nice change, since the sticky/non-stick wasn't too big a switch. To be fair I don't think I've ever used the sticky ones.

I hear the shotgun pistol is going to have incendiary. You think the guys are making use of a new flame system?

What might be cool as being able to use the Hellsing arrows in a shotgun, that'd give them a bit more usablity, I think.

 

tracers maybe?

 

I think Tracers would be too much for the Normal FPS Gamer, most guys That I know in RL think that 'Tracer' is just the bullet...

I think the only New types of ammo would be ones that arnt AP/HP and the such, as this would clutter the game a fair bit for the Average player, Now, if it was my game I would have us Reloading Magazines with the rounds we want.

But alas, its a FPS Game, we cant do that without cluttering the game up allot, would be good to have some Incendiary rounds as said before. But explosive rounds, No. Because Its just to much for anything smaller than a Shotgun slug sized projectile. as the Word explosive, means a big fucken bang... An Un-realistic Bang in most FPS cases.


But having some new ideas, would be nice for 'Metro-Ammo'. Even having some Dirty Rounds have a bit of 'Character' sometimes, like shattering as it leaves the barrel and other Crazy awesomeness, not effecting performace, but maybe some muzzel Effects

 

I'd suppose it'd depend on the shotgun. Maybe something similar to a duplet, but from what I recall, hellsing is effective because of the concentrated pressure of gas held inside the pump that launches the arrow, that would mean you'd have to make a pneumatic shotgun, which isn't... cost effective.

I heard of a type of bullet though, it's quite inhuman.

The idea is that once it hits its target, it rips itself inside out and basically turns itself into a blender. Shredding your insides. That would be cool. In gameplay, it could be simulated by having your targets scream more, flinch, and generally have more profuse bleeding and more damages!

PAIN IS FUN

P.S.

Not really a fan of new bullets, but, what the heck I'd love to find another reason of making your opponents bleed and scream. RUN MY LITTLE POCKETS OF XP! RUN!

 

Paintballs for fucking with nazis for a laugh?

 

I think the variety of weapons with their own ammunition is sufficient variety for Metro. If you're keeping the idea of scarce ammunition resources, adding various types of ammunition for each weapon should subtract from the conventional ammo stores you'll be finding. I'm also afraid that special ammo would be quite valuable, effectively making it another form of currency ammo. Still, it would be interesting if it worked out.

 

Haha! Just remembered Kellys Heroes where they used Paint fulled rounds on the Tigers.

Would be awesome, being able to fire paint fulled rounds to block their visors and stuff, a bit silly though

 

could be an easter egg that you could find or something like the guy smoking sheesha in dry on 2033 or like when you got with death cards for co op on cod waw

 

A molotov is a homemade grenade usually made of a bottle filled with a flammable liquid, often gas or alcohol with a rag stuffed in the neck of the bottle. sorry for being a besserwiesser but, yeah.

Anyway, I don't wan't different ammo. Kinda messes with the scarcity of resources and that. plus I don't need Ap bullets to bring down a "tank" mutant. All i need is a large enough hole

 

Haha, I would think AP wouldnt be as effective vs. Flesh due to over penetration and whatnot

But im aganst this whole 'classing' of Zombies and tanks and the such, sure in a game like L4D its good due to the arcadey Nature of the game, but in Metro, its just beh :/

But I think Our 'AP' Is pretty much MGR's in the case of the Metro anyhow

 

Gotta make myself some dum-dum bullets then.
