Graphically how to show arrows ?

Maybe explode-able arrows that disappear after shot and too fast to be seen?

This is one of the problems about the weapon. Z8 would need to work hard implementing this and making it work.

But this is an urban military game. Do crossbows really fit in that category.

But good suggestion anyways.
It sounds like it would be fun.

I believes it fits as GR and BL are both mercenary forces. These forces would need a variety of weapons to be successful yes? After all, if we can have wrenches, soccer grenades, pumpkin hats, etc, I'm pretty sure the Crossbow isn't that far fetched. ^^

Combat crossbows are still used till today in BLACK operations
You can have one of those modern ones
I think if it gets made into something similar to dual despies , with about the same damage , it would be cool
33 bullets , firing rate of the anaconda , dual desperado damage range , Mp5 Weight , Xm8 reload time

It would be great

Having the range of duel despies would be terrible in my opinion. This is supposed to be a long range weapon.

Some people appear to be concerned about the power BUT keep in mind the slow reload rate. In close a Crossbow user would be very vulnerable, but deadly long range.

Nice idea, I like !!

i know what you thinking.Yes it would be great but it would ruin the game.

Now that I think of it, if the devs ever decided to put this in, all the CF coders would become suicidal.

This is a good suggestion but a 5 second reload rate is just terrible

Still fail to see how it would ruin the game, but that's your opinion I guess.

Probably, It would be very hard to code this. 0.o

If it didn't have a long reload time it would easily become a OP weapon. also, I updated the reload times which may be better.

i see you morons still dont understand

why would you have 1 bullet/arrow rifle/crossbow that doesnt even 1 hit at range when you have the awp which does the job 10 times better?

It is as powerful as the AWM, but not to the foot/leg. To say that it doesn't one hit means you haven't read the details or paid attention to the thread. I'd ask that you do before you make absurd comments.

how so?... I've modded games that use the same engine as cf and its not that difficult to place a crossbow in them.

BUT WHY WOULD lT HAVE 5 SECONDS RELOAD BETWEEN EACH SHOT WHEN ADVANCED VERSIONS OF THE AWM HAVE 10 WITH 0.5 WHILE HAVING THE SAME/MORE POWER LOL

I wish people would read the updated stats. It is no longer 5 second reload for one bolt.

Complete Reload Time: 7.5 Seconds
Fire Rate: 1 per 2.5 Seconds (0.4 RPS)
Bullets: 3/27
Total Bullets: 30
Full to Empty Mag: 7.5 Seconds

Also, this gun is not to be compared to the AWM as this is a completely different weapon. The Crossbow is meant to be a stealthy and deadly rifle class weapon, not something that is meant to compete with Sniper Sifles.

I guess in a way I did that, but I think it would be an overstatement to call what I did an act of "an immature little child". An immature child would've been much less discrete and "vocal".

Anyways back to the Crossbow...
