I have seen several posts suggesting a m16 .. because ... not only because it is not British .. give them a 7.62 m16 it would make a good damage.

YouTube - M16 7.62x39mm Upper Full Auto


then mean that the tripwire will be stopped without performing any update with new weapons and characters for the game is getting kinda boring, this is not the tripwire that every month launched an update ... when someone from an idea to answer is always the same "do not have time to tripwire" ha then they stopped time in the world to make the game?

I don't think that is really a valid reason, I see Bullpups, AK-47, 9mm, Deagles and such everywhere too.

Bullpup 9mm and deagle were in the origins of Killing Floor, way back in 2005 when it was first released. The Ak47 was released sometime in mid 2009 and we didn't really have these weapon suggestions discussions we do now.

Yeah, I know that. But usually these discussions always come down to: "This is a real gun that exists, thus adding to the game would be lame and copied because some stupid game nobody cares about out there has the gun aswell."

It's like saying we can't implement flying body pieces because some game back in <2000 had it. Incase you know what I mean.

Not that I really support the M16, it's just I already know the responses on a thread like this before I even open it.

Well, back when they did monthly updates and Level Up, there was no ROHoS under production...now not so much =/. They are few, and they are busy, and they are making another game, let them have some rest (its not easy managing 2 series with, what, 20 guys?). Sure they had time in the past, but, as stated, that's because they weren't working their arses off trying to finish another game!

As for the idea of an m16, I don't really get how it fits in: what role does it play that no other weapon does, what does this weapon truly offer the game? We can't dismiss it for being popular, but we also can't accept it for it. We have to take this into serious consideration, and try and figure out if this is a good use of time and money making for the game, and what it will offer said game.

I personally can't see what it will really introduce to the game positively, but I am not very schooled in the study of guns.

A 3-shot burst maybe?

A "weak" grenade launcher?

Perhaps toggleable between automatic and a scoped firemode? For example automatic it is the same as any other machine gun and scoped it fires single shots that do alot of damage, similiar to a sniper, just not as powerful obviously. Maybe to take out Husks/Siren with 1 headshot, uhhh.

Tagging rounds that on impact mark a target and increase the damage on the target by 0%/2%/4%/6%/8%/10% which like puts a huge arrow above the tagged enemy, to take out big enemies easier. Uses buggy dart mechanics like the medigun.

A melee weapon attached to it like a good old bayonet?

A attachable silencer that decreases damage but increases accuracy?

Alt-fire darts that stun specific enemies?

A thing that shoots nets and temporarily roots enemies to the place? LOL.

I don't know, there is so much you can do with a gun. Might aswell make it weird, since normal guns apparently aren't allowed in Killing Floor. ^-^

PS: Yes I know i'm crazy, you want something special with a gun? There you have it, don't expect a gun by default todo more than shoot things. :>

EDIT: I think I forgot a freezing beam thing similiar to a flamethrower that slows down Zed movement. :3

KF forums are dead, aren't they? In every threads I see the same 5-6 people interacting with each other. Now don,t get angry, I'm not trying to insult anyone around, it's just that I feel sad that the community isn't as big and active as it used to be back at the mod. It's been almost 3 months since any updates... what is going on?

Personally, I'd be up for an average gun that shoots bullets as long as it manages to seperate itself enough from other guns that shoot bullets and it has a general outline of a role which is relatively new. I just want a gun that is more than just a showy "gun to look like any other game" or a gun to press M1 and kill everything. As long as it distinguishes itself as seperate from any other existing KF weapon, then in my opinion it is worth debating (for example, just look at Carver and Ivan's MK pistols: shoots regular bullets but manage to occupy a role and feel different enough as to really deserve debate for retail)

Of course, I'd be down for some outlandish attache as well :D, as long as it also has a seperated role that would work in KF.

Also, as for KF's lack of updates: I think we really should have one soon, the XMas update was good but this total sudden "static over the radio" from TWI is rather disconcerting...but neither unexpected nor without reason. To be fair, ROHoS is starting to enter that point where its getting primed for Beta, TWI is rushing like hell to get their stuff finished to get the show on the road. All I must say is that once TWI finishes their celebration cocktails and the parties die down in the office, KF is primed for something new. The balance is set, the game has been adjusted, and is ready for a wait...for now. But we are also ready, eventually, for a Reinessance. When ROHoS is released, and Yosh gets back from DisneyWorld, then there will be no more "ROHoS" buttton to press, and the KF population will get all unruly again ;).

7.62 M16?

7.62xWHAT.

There's a 7.62x51mm AR-10, which was scaled down to 5.56x45mm and called the AR 15, which was adopted as the M16A1.

So why not go back to the very first rifle with this design?

Here's 3 different AR 10s, for your consideration.

EDIT: How about a .50BMG AR15?

Perhaps this would be better for Sharpshooter. xD

I have actually suggested a M16A1 with grenade launcher as a weapon that can be shared between both demo and commando. Apparently, it can't happen. :/ (perk-sharing, that is)

One more for my "M-16" counter...geeze...

So far, that's 3 adds to it in one week. I feel like I'm being secretly trolled...

Me too :D
Or well, it wasn't specifically an M16A1, just ANY assault rifle shooting in bursts and having a grenade launcher underneath. I guess that the M16A1 is the best weapon to implement those behaviours though.
