Weapons on Safety

Post by AirCasper »

I did a search for this, and never seen it posted before (maybe because some may see it as a dumb idea.. but hear me out)


How about adding a safety feature to weapons. (I know it may seem a bit over kill but I think it will add to realism)

on most guns we can change between 1 round shots, to semi, burst, or full automatic... but is there a way to have a safety option? where the fire is set to 0.


The reason I say this is, there are times riding in the back of a supply truck where a player accidentally fires their weapon and kills a team mate.


If you are not in a hostile area, such as main base, or driving out of main base this could prevent some uneeded tk's.


I thought of it tonight after being tked twice this way... once in a supply truck, again in a black hawk...



I know it sounds like a bit much, but its just a suggestion.



May add a little more realism to the game when moving into a hostile area and your SL tells everyone to take off safety


:D



I can see how it may cause an annoyance of switching firing modes

However, I have heard stories of guys who accidentally had their guns on safety trying to engage a target.


it may also add that bit of realism of slowing down the switch by a fraction of a second




again just a suggestion

LOL after my experience tonight (both times) I have learned some people don't follow that method. (both guys were in clans, so I can't blame it on being noobs..)


:D nice idea though, whish it were that easy for some

You can't shoot your teammates in while your both in the supply truck you can only shoot people out of it.

This is impossible if you both in the same vehicle...

Edit: Someone got there before me :D

I would LOVE this feature. Sometimes it just happens that you accidently hit your mouse to keyboard and *bang*. Your cover / flanking is blown or your friend is hit :D

I have had horrible incidents with RPG in other games like Americas Army where RPG really kills everyone around :<

I guess old R6-games were the only games which included safety mode.
