Drop weapon?

Recommended Posts

I was playing ofp (which I finnaly got fixed) and I thought that by now with the 4 patches that I missed there would be a way to drop your secondary weapon. Well I guess not. I took a Strela launcher, and the last strela, and shot down a CHinnok, but all 10 guys inside jumped out and hunted me down and found me in the woods under a rock because my launcher was sticking out. Will Bis make it possible to release your weapons?

Hi all,

I think they should also add several features,

1.More Grenades for rifle

2.more than 30 shots when you respawn

3.missions in the select screen should be in sections/Coop,DM and so on

4.MP missions should appear like the Single missions with the Briefing at the select screen.

5.when the menu pops up to pick up a gun it should tell how much ammo it has before being picked up so that you don't pick up a Rocket launcher only to find out it's empty.

Add your opinions of these suggestions please

thanks LT.Schaffer

Please don't use "Put Down T80" feature in Resistance. As you know, the tank is quite heavy one so it can not only crash the game but it can also crash your computer and your house. Please understand BIS can't take any guarantee for any damage caused by use of any type of computer software or military hardware.

It would have been such a nice feature - enter a russian base, steel a T80, put it in your Trabant and drive home like an innocent civilist...

Lol, didn't think it would require a Developer to read this but any ways, I thought you were going to be angry to hear that.

YOu people are sick. Droping a 70 ton Abrams to kill some one is sick. I can under stand being hit by a jeep, but that cause their lighter. 70 tons would mess up the deadest body in the world. And must I mention that those tracks are metal. Just think how disgusting that would look

It'd be nice if it would cache the weapons configuration you used in Multiplayer games.

It's a pain to have to change the weapons around in the briefing screen each time you play a mission.

I think it would also be handy to have the images of your team at the bottom of your screen be set according to load out, and not just class.

They should also fix up the hands. That's one f***ing big hand.

Just curious. Since Resistance is an add-on for Flashpoint, does that mean that it will be an .EXE all by its own ? Or will it update the current Flashpoint .EXE as well as models, textures, etc.

Reason I ask is: Will these features like "drop weapon" be available when I play on the original Flashpoint islands ? Or will it be only available on the new island ?

Same goes for graphics. Will the new and improved graphics only work on the new island ? It seems like they haven't completely re-worked the graphics engine, but upgraded to higher resolution textures, higher poly-count models and so forth. Since trees and buildings are used over and over, they are very likely being called in from a library, so upgrading that library of models should automatically upgrade the graphics on the old islands. Will that be so ?

Thanks.

i hope it works with hand grenades too. when i want to silently pick up another LAW without dropping my HK mag it's not exactly conveinent to throw a grenade and hope they don't notice

I hope it also fixes the problem when you have smoke grenades and frag grenades. As it currently stands, you can only use one type at a time, not switch between what you are carrying.

Only problem with this is that it adds more lines to the action menu. It probably won't get anyone killed and I welcome the ability to dump wepons but it could lead to other problems. I was playing the mission where you all go to the pub and because they give ou the stupid binculars I accidently selected them and got suck cause I couldn't get off them. Imagine if you accidentlay drop the gun in a firefight and then mistakenly hit the binocs? No chance.

Mind you you might get a ood look at whoever kills you. Revenge!

maybe a drop weapon menu or maybe even a confirmation button

hit it and it brings up a submenu.

i would hate it to be like the satchell charges...you're hit...medic bumps into you as you're placing one and it switches to touch off 2 bombs

i will be interested to see if the guns simply vanish when you drop them or if the gun drops by itself.

It'll probably stay until the game runs out of memory(I forgot how to spell memory) for handling textures. Like most console based games. They have a cap on the number of bullet holes etc that can exist and fades them out as new ones are made.

I though the same way but some1 once told me that if u press spacebar untill u have ur nade or smoke selected, in ur action menu there is an option to reload the other type of launchable device that u need. smile.gif It works

Hey, thanks for that. smile.gif Never noticed that before.

Still, I think it would be better if they came up as seperate weapons when you hit your spacebar.

But at least now I've got a work around solution.
