Ranged Weapons Repair-Crafting System

[Damnyourdeadman 1045]

The purpose of this suggestion is to be flesh out an adequate weapon repair and crafting system.

 

What i had in mind is to divide and categorize each firearm into 2(or more) separate main parts(attachments aside).

Here are some examples:

 

M4 Upper Assembly

 

M4 Lower Assembly

 

SKS Trigger Assembly

 

 

SKS Barrel

 

IZH 43 Shotgun Barrel - Receiver

 

 

AK 47 Barrel

 

 

AK 47 Receiver

 

 

This gives us the possibility to loot weapons in parts and essentially create our firearm by combining them together.

A system like this could successfully increase weapon rarity and enhance their value greatly.

It will actually be challenging for a survivor to get their hands on a (working) weapon.

Additionally,a "ruined" part can be simply replaced,without endangering the weapon's overall condition as a whole.

 

So,tell me what you think. :)

If you have time be sure to check out the "Melee Weapons-Repair Crafting System".

An older topic about melee weapons that uses almost the same principle.

I wonder if some jury rigging could also be applied to these weapons parts as whole?

 

Maybe the infamous garden shovel handle as a improvised stock on an AK :D or hell even using other weapon parts to craft improvised weapons with some creativity and ingeniuty.
