If it has the flip animation, then it would be cool to have a reference to terminator in the description.

It is not going to have a flip animation because I am lazy, plus I would need the whole sprite,including the hand and grip to do a flip.

Heyo,

I'm not entirely sure if it'll totally kick off the ground this time around, but there have been vague talks that have got me thinking about Psychic's campaign again. If it happens, I actually might could use your help, Weasel. I've got a lot of lore n' characters n' story mapped out (and partially sprited

), but I'm rather rubbish at putting words on paper at times. Would help to get things properly done, at least.

Maybe at some future date, I can totally fan-fic a backstory for your mod. =P

Heh, maybe; would be neat to see.

Really, though, the big thing I'd love some help on are in-universe descriptions of things (e.g. weapons at the shop, place locales on the "choose your next stage" map, etc.) and character dialogue (yay Strife trees). Just like what you do with gun descriptions, 'cept actually in the map somewhere.

Sounds like a very original help offer!

Really though, in the past I have always tried writing little backstories and weapon briefings for my mods, but since English is not my mother tongue, I always thought they would have sounded a bit "strange" to an english-speaking reader.
So yeah, should I ever manage to finish the project I am currently (theoretically) working on, I shall be happy to ask you to write some fresh lore for me - or at least review the stuff I would have goofily tried to put together for that time.

I think I have something here now. I think they can use a name and description.

I need to know how it works. Is it a rapid-fire rifle? Is it an automatic shotgun? Is it some bizarre plasma gun? Does it shoot rubber ducks and take shop rags for ammunition? I can't write an effective description if you can't tell me what I'm writing about.

Okay, sorry.

The scoped rifle is semi - automatic, and uses 5.56mm rounds. It will allow people to zoom in and out.

The rifle with the front sight is full - automatic, and uses 7.62 NATO. I think it will have a slightly slower reload, and will have more recoil, considering both weapons are the same size, but use different cartridges. maybe not, because they use different stocks.

You can decide, Wild Weasel.

Alright then, here goes.

Spoiler:
Kovac Oct-33 DMR and Oct-41 MBR
Designed by Croatian gunsmith Konrad Kovac and produced under license by at least four other manufacturers, the "Octavian" series of infantry rifles was initially only intended for sport shooting; the design included integrated telemetry sensors and a camera intended for recording during shooting competitions. The camera, literally an off-the-shelf helmet camera priced at less than 40 USD, made the Octavian popular with law enforcement throughout Eastern Europe, and brought about a new age of law enforcement accountability. Because the rifle was so successful at stopping "accidental" civilian shootings during police raids, it was not long before national armies adopted it as their assault weapon of choice.

The Octavian comes in several variants, all of which have interchangeable parts (save for the magazine, upper receiver, and barrel). Among the most popular variations are the Oct-33 Designated Marksman Rifle, chambered for 5.56mm cartridges for improved armor penetration; and the Oct-41 Main Battle Rifle, favored by front line forces for its hefty 7.62 NATO cartridge and capacity for automatic fire with significantly less recoil than the typical FAL variants. The Oct-41 bears traditional open sights and a fixed, recoil-controlling stock, while the Oct-33 has an integrated magnifying scope (actually, an eye piece for the onboard camera, reducing the need for constant zeroing and adjusting) and a folding stock.

AMAZING

Mind making a name and back story for this one too? It's a LMG configuration for the Octavian Rifle Series.

I'll give that one a go, too.

Spoiler:
Owing to its highly modular design, the Octavian rifle is also available in FAS (Full-Auto Suppression) configuration. The so-named Kovac Oct-41 Mod.2 FAS, better known by its users as the "Forty-One Fastoc," replaces the lower receiver with one modified to accept only a belt feed, and removes the integrated camera to make room for a canister of barrel-coolant fluid, which is intelligently applied to the barrel should it exceed recommended temperatures. Because of the altered feed mechanism, the Fastoc cannot accept box magazines from the similar Oct-41 MBR. This might sound inconvenient for the support gunner who happens to be low on ammo, but the end result is a much more reliable mechanism free of jamming and cook-off issues, making for a much more useful weapon for sustained suppressing fire.

Jesus christ, man, that is awesome! So it cools down the barrel with a fluid?
