Western Mod

[Sammers]

Just a thought I had that I wanted to share.

It would be a hell of a lot of work, but does anyone else think that a Wild West Mod would be very well suited to the RO2 engine? The engine just seems to capture the panicky ambiance that someone would typically be feeling in a Western firefight.

Just a big town with saloon etc. with a 'Last team standing wins' type deal.
Hell, even keep territory. Could use gold mines or something. Just feels like such a good idea for a mod.

I Always thought this was a Great idea, and this actually had its own thread shortly after ROHOS was released.

Satchels could be dynamite, pistols, rifles, shotguns are already there. Fixed mgs could be maxims.

Objectives could be banks or outlaw hideouts. Lots of possibilities.

Yeah would be cool but I think that western mods have a little fanbase. I remember that there was a mod for Quake 3 set in the wild west. Was funny. But nobody played it.

I would be interested in a western mod. I wanna use the lever action rifles like the cowboy repeater in fallout

 

[andyana]

I'd be up for that, a western mod would be cool

 

[Dziga Vertov]

Yeah me too, although there is little likelihood anyone would be willing to. Personally I think a small pistols only mutator and a single westernish map would awesome.

There is a cool lever action in Killing floor waiting to be used for this very purpose.

I like the idea, revolvers, LAR, and shotguns...maybe one of those old civil war gattlings.. this is probably pre-civil war though.

Maybe even a Indian with a bow and arrow?

Im well aware of the lever action in kf

And I would like to see bow and arrows too. And horses, they can be the Tanks

Or just leave tanks as tanks and stack the team balance a smidge.

I started something like this, but I would only be willing to continue on it if I get some help, especially artists because i am more of a coder, though i have some experience with getting assets ingame...

I posted about it here. No one has approached me...

If you check out my steam page -> ShirtyKezRat is my steam name, you will find images of the pistol ingame and firing.

A small one map, one type of pistol western gameplay would be a reasonable objective for a small team.
So if you know anyone with UE engine experience or model, texture experience that would be willing to do this and you want something like this send them my way!!!
