Attachments :D

howsit

I think you should be able to outright buy attachments I feel that you should be able to buy a red dot scope for like 50k zp or something. Or a silencer for 50k zp... I don't know -.- but sometimes I don't buy guns because I feel they could have a better attachment. Such as the M4-X currently sucks... it would make z8 a little extra $$ maybe ;/. I'd personally buy tons of attachments. Also, make it so those attachments stay on one gun, would be annoying if you could switch them.

This has probably been said before, and if it has... sorry :P

*edit*
Have the attachment conform to the gun too, would be bad to put an attachment on a gun, and have a weird paint job going on lol

something was brought up about m4 being useless then, maybe you could only buy attachments for ZP guns? Not for BP + GP guns. I do like how War Inc did their attachment system :C

Posted it in just barracks... so re-posting it here.

That other thread can be forgotten/deleted ;o

This idea has been suggested a dozen times offer. I guess you didn't search for them before you posted this.

Anyway, each time this idea got shot down for 2 reasons.

1. It would be unfair to people who bought pre-custom made weapons through the black market.

2. This suggestion would demand a complete overhaul of the current gun system, because it would have to be adjusted to accommodate every possible gun with every possible combination of attachments and any features and changes they would provide.

1.) It may be unfair, but I'm not so sure it would be to taxing, I mean you wouldn't be able to put the scope on a regular m4, or m4 silver, that eliminates quick options for a m4 c. You could put it on a temporary M4-X or something but idk. I guess it is a little bit unfair, but I've had this happen to me in a few games, and I did get over it but it may not be the same for other players. I for one do have an m4-custom. You have to remember they did add a free m4 custom also, the m4 crystal custom and I don't think too many complained, then again I am not active in the forums.

2.) It would require quite extensive work, but I think there would be a price for the attachments that would even out with the work. 50k zp could be too little, idk, it would have to be figured out by other people than myself. But, 50k zp per attachment to add a scope/silencer on a weapon that would STAY on that weapon would add up quickly imo, I know of 3 guns I wouldn't mind switching around some attachments on, that's 150k zp... if it was 60k zp ea, 180k zp it could add up quickly. It doesn't have to be as extensive as War Inc was.

and about re-posting, sorry xD I guess I should have used the search function. I didn't know if anyone would have the idea, considering there are pre positioned attachments on some guns.


They are definitely valid issues that I believe can be worked around and like I said, it doesn't have to be as polished and extensive as War Inc was.

Pretty sure this applies to this type of idea.

-For the moment, extremely few modifications/items are being considered for release; we're not soliciting suggestions as the developers are very firm on what will and will not be included in this particular category. These, with few exceptions, are cash-shop exclusive items in other Cross Fire regions and we are of the firm policy players should not be able to simply pay to win.

the only way I think this would work is if the attachments were temp, so that the guns in crates still have value seems they already have the attachments that are perm. Like lolli already said tho it would require a lot of work on the devs end which I doubt they will do.

Lets say we would offer 1 gun and 4 different attachments (a red dot sight, an Acog sight, a suppressor, and an AN/PEQ-15 laser pointer). Then the developers would have to make:

• Weapon
• Weapon + red dot
• Weapon + red dot + suppressor
• Weapon + red dot + laser pointer
• Weapon + red dot + suppressor + laser pointer
• Weapon + acog
• Weapon + acog + suppressor
• Weapon + acog + laser pointer
• Weapon + acog + suppressor + laser pointer
• Weapon + suppressor
• Weapon + laser pointer
• Weapon + suppressor + laser pointer

That's 12 guns that need to be programmed just to give 1 weapon the possibility of equipping 4 attachments. You see where I'm going with this?

I am in no way into coding whatsoever so honestly I wouldn't know :P So I guess I see xD I thought maybe you could "copy and paste" the code for one gun into another... if that makes sense, as in the ability for all those attachments on that gun, and insert it into the code of another... but I could be totally wrong because I haven't looked at a string of code in my life except for high school -.- lol

Just switch out the weapon with a different weapon O_o idk.

True, that would be kind of cool to. Or they could put the attachments in crates. Which would be the equivalent of winning a perm gun, even worse in one case, like the M4-C which has red dot + suppressor.

Its not really the coding that is the problem its actually modelling the guns, all guns are different shapes and sizes so the attachments would have to be individually placed on each weapon to make sure it looks normal.

Ah, I see
Still wish I would have compared m4 x and reg m4 before going for the h'ween one :S read the description and thought it had higher accuracy, compared them afterwards, and they do not xD. Still a good enough gun though

LOL how is this cod?
Last I checked CoD isn't the only game to have customization-able attachments...
