British Army Off duty weapons pack

[Pathy 0]

Anyone fancy helping me with this addon idea. Basically it will include all the weapons you would expect to find an off duty Army soldier with...pool cues, bottles, chair legs, ect....

Need a decent "swing" animation and some idea of how best to config/script hand to hand weapons

Ok nobodys taking me seriously i guess

Its not that they arnt taking you seriously its just i think we would all prefere on duty  British army weapons more   .  I mean you might aswell do a Civilian British pack as thats basically what you are when you are off duty.

There is already on duty weapons *cough* PUKF *cough*

Err....Gimbol Tossers. Why don't you go and buy Holligans, thats much more interesting than actually using flashpoint for riots.

I think it'd be nice to have access to a pool cue, just so VOLCBAT can regularly show RAAB that they own them

This is the whole idea behind the pack. So that RAAB can get into bar fights with thier fellow british flashpointeers. When we said "joint training" we really meant meeting up to kick shit out of each other

*Pathy takes a swig of cheap larger, smashes the bottle on the bar and shoves it in kookies general direction*

Maybe i ought to make a pub addon?

Considering there's about ten times as many VOLCBAT members than there are RAAB members, we'll also need an ambulance in the pack. And maybe a snow shovel and bin bag for the mushy and/or unrecognisable bits.

On duty weapons, sure but off duty weapons? That isn't the aim of OFP, like Coastguard packs and things, thats not really what OFP is designed for, lets get some real military fighting on, like the game is made for!

I think someone is missing the point/joke of this...

But us Brits are better at getting pissed up and kicking the shit out of each other.

I think i got my priorties straight Pathy, why get my head kicked in when I can be getting free booze

I'd help out but I dont have much time, if I get time I'll try and whip something up

Best thing is to turn it into a Liverpool civvy weapons pack instead....

I'll have a look in my "war-drobe" for some ideas for you ;)

Ive made a pool cue. Ive been suggested to make a sock with a pool ball in it as well

Actually, I think a general "melee weapons" pack would be very good. I tried some work on a machete myself, but I'm not much of a 3D modeller.

FDF has some interesting hand-to-hand weapons (axe), someone made a chainsaw, Kegetys made the now infamous drill ...so I think a melee weapons pack would be welcomed by the community.

Here's my 2 cents:

Knife (generic, combat, hunting etc.)

Machete

Hatchet

Shovel and/or entrenching tool

Clubs (4by2, pool cue, golf club and other "weapons of opportunity)

Really need to get an animator interested to make it decent tbh.

Tomahawks were carried and used in Viet Nam, US SOF are currently buying them for use in A-stan and Iraq. Same for the big Bowie knives and Arkansas toothpicks.

Yes, if each weapon had it's own animation, it would be very cool - a thrust or slash for knives, a big swing for a pool cue or shovel...

All this talk of swinging for people with a shovel is making me want to go home and play GTA: San Andreas  

Obviously they wouldn't last long against troops with guns but civvies/militia armed with hammers, knives, pool cues, chair legs, bottles, pitch forks or baseball bats would be a nice idea.

They could be useful for fighting zombies as well as pub brawls, in fact for fighting zombies a flymo would be good too  

@Pathy, remind me to introduce you to my sharp friend Stanley during joint ops
