It could very well be, since I don't recognize the dialogue. (Unless TW added new phrases for the characters, but I think that is a new voice entirely)
The voice just sounds like Masterson, nothing new. I'm hoping the nail bomb is as promising in tight quarters as it sounds. May even trump the supports nade as the new "best" grenade choice.
Maybe it is a new character with Masterson's voice as a placeholder. Kinda like with Anton having Skully's voice for a little bit.
Can you use different guns at the same time? Could be a great chance to implement a inventory or something to sort your weapons at will.
I would love to see that but I can imagine it being a HUGE pain to code and implement. That and reload animations may not be that good as they may have to do the "lower gun offscreen for reload" thing.
Don't get me wrong I would love that but it might not be feasible.
Will the slinger weapons not have any penetration by default? I don't think weapon penetration should be a perk skill considering how low the magazine capacity is for all the pistols. I think it should just be a passive unless the perk skill is simply adding on to the bullet penetration. (But in that case why would you pick it over tactical reload?)
Boondock Saints fan, eh?Yoshiro said:
Penetration is a hidden weapon stat. All Support shotguns, the VLAD, and HM-Shotgun have a 2 in that stat, everything other weapon has 0. Zeds each have a penetration resistance value; for crawlers and stalkers it's 0.5, bloat 3, clot variants 1, ect. Every time a shotgun pellet goes through a zed, it loses some of its Penetration stat equal to the Penetration Resistance of the zed it passed through. So without any bonuses a shotgun will shoot through one clot and hit another, or go through 3 stalkers and hit something behind them. The perk passive for support is a multiplier that boosts that weapon stat, so it can shoot through more zeds or through zeds with higher resistances like the bloat and FP.
I suspect each of the 'Slinger guns will have a Penetration value higher than 0 (probably very low for the T1/T2 and pretty decent for the T4), and the skill will be a multiplier like the support passive.

Omg. Reading that was so frustrating (I know I know, you took the time to put that effort, but I just rolled my eyes).
And then I busted up laughing when I got to the bottom, where you wrote "Translation". Thank you for the translation haha
Skills and their tiers sound good. Looking forward to seeing them in action.

Really digging this perk, the only reason I loved sharpshooter before was because of the pistols and now with a full dedicated pistol user I am going to have a lot of fun.
I'm pretty sure it's a new character. That or they're adding fingerless gloves as a new cosmetic item for Masterson.
