be able to care a rifle and a bow/crossbow

[thefriendlydutchman 160]

a bow and a crossbow are very light so it should be possible, the character wil walk a little but slower (about 5% thats allot in the long run)

A crossbow wouldn't knock 5% off your running speed unless it's unrealistically massive and heavy. 1% maybe.

But yes. x/bow + primary weapon

Not only is the crossbow longer than the M4A1, it's also wider than the length of the M4A1. As for weight, they are about the same.

 

 

 

 

Does a crossbow have the ability to shrink itself and defy the pull of gravity?

 

No? Well, in that case crossbows should not be treated any differently from other weapons or items. If you can do rifle plus crossbow, you can also do rifle plus rifle... there should not be any discussion on this subject limited only to crossbows because that makes no sense.

Crossbows are heavier than bows, not sure about modern ones, but ones made out of wood are heavy

This isnt the walking dead. IRL you can carry 2 large weapons, one in your hands, one on your back (IF YOU HAVE A GUNSTRAP) and that should be all unless you have a bag that can carry multiple weapons.

Sidearms (IE pistols) you should be able to carry many of these as you want.

Not without a sling or some sort of implement. Even then, a crossbow is pretty damn large and using one alongside a full-sized rifle seems pretty odd (Although hunters will do it, occasionally).

[AP_Norris 1018]

Bullets need to be made rarer, to make a choice between a crossbow and a rifle very difficult.

Most crossbows usually allow you to take the arms off though, however if we see crossbows slipping into bags I would really want guns to as well.

Once some sort of weight and fatigue system comes along I'm happy for the player having far greater flexibility on where he can put things.

Not only should bow/crossbow be used due to lack of ammo, but also not to alert the "hundreds" of zombies that this game might never have
