sixmcdoubles 1 Posted March 20, 2015 Hello everyone, I had a thought the other day about having two primary weapons. What if you could pick up a weapon in place of your melee weapon on your back? That would you could have a long range rifle for long engagements and when you needed to fight people up close you could just pull out that extra assault rifle and go ham. Just a thought what do you guys think? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just Caused 423 Posted March 20, 2015 I think this is good and realistic idea, but I think it should be the way it is now. I don't feel like I would want to have super bandit-Terminators on my back that can change their weapons and from M4 to Mosin.Good idea, been suggested many times, but sadly, I don't think it will make it. Also, you have AKSU and MP5K as second primary guns, so whats the big deal? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therandomredstone 432 Posted March 20, 2015 Hello everyone, I had a thought the other day about having two primary weapons.

That would you could have a long range rifle for long engagements and when you needed to fight people up close you could just pull out that extra assault rifle and go ham. Just a thought what do you guys think?This has been suggested many, many many times and all I can say is that it will be a sacrifice. Two weapons would realistically weigh you down ALOT. so with the games current build. It would ruin it. (especially with the types of CoD players we have) so if this is ever added, it will be after the stamina system is implemented, and THAT will be implemented after more vehicles are implemented and plus, you will have to make an improvised holster of some sort. So it will be a AWHILE from now probably in Q3 or Q4. But as of right now, it is discouraged because of all the one man army people running around Chernarus. Get used to what you have right now.

Chaingunfighter 917 Posted March 20, 2015 You can already have a gun on your back and in your hands, and that's not to mention plenty of room in the endless bags and vests for smaller "primary" weapons like the AKS-74U, MP5K, or whatnot. The fact that we have slots on the back at all is very generous, and personally I think we should need to find a sling/rope first before you can even do that, but I doubt that'll happen for various reasons, so live with what you have now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sneakydudes 278 Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) I agree 2 weapons is a good thing. Edited March 21, 2015 by TheSneakyDude Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroskyBro 21 Posted March 21, 2015 Pistols and smgs, just put them in your backpack? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Minion 943 Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Remove the magic slots, add gun slings, a belt to tuck in handguns, a stamina system and I have no problem with carrying two longarms on your back (with slings of course).Before that: No way - there is already way too much free power on players.

mrbeaneater 21 Posted March 21, 2015 Haha heres a thought what if you could dual-wield pistols. Now i know this sounds like im taking it from CoD but i personally despise the akimbo thing on there but i dont know the thought of use dual engraved M1911s to clear a police station sounds pretty badass.

gannon46 788 Posted March 21, 2015 once they add stamina and weight affects your character i don't care what you carry but as of now i don't see a reason to do this because as of right now atleast it makes you think about what you need for the situation such as long range or CQC or med range. if you could carry 2 primary it would eliminate that because it would be everyone carrying AK or M4 with scoped mosin. like i said stamina and wieght needs to affect characters first IMO before dual primary type of stuff.

Kurotaku-sama 6 Posted March 21, 2015 Its a very good idea I and a lot of friends have the same idea but than the axe's need to get bigger as slots because than you can wear too much. (you can wear 5 fireaxes in your backpack...) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roguetrooper 201 Posted March 22, 2015 You are aware that EVERYBODY then would run around with a long range and short range primary weapon? This means also YOU will be facing people who can kill YOU from near AND far all the time. Players must be forced to decide between things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sausagekingofchicago 4711 Posted March 22, 2015 How about 3 rifles? I think that is even better. Or maybe 4 rifles. That is at least twice as good as OPs suggestion. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
