WWII themed weapons skins to celebrate releas of RO2

[Musa]

RO2 is coming soon. We got 2 new skins for KF but how about making bigger even from this fact? Instead new players' skins I was thinking about weapons' skins. Shouldn't be so much problem since KF using same engine as RO1 so most models could be IMO easly copied from this game. I particularly thought about russian and german weapons only.
So, here is my list. I don't think that stats should be changed, just models:
bullpup - PPSh
AK-47 - Stg 44
SCAR - FG 42
9 mm - TT 33
Handcannon - P08 or Mauser c96
LAR - Mosing Nagant M38
M14 EBR - SVT-40
Crossbow - Mauser k98 sniper
medigun - MP 40
MAC-10 - PPS 43
Flamethrower - Flammenwerfer 35 or ROKS-3
M79 - rifle grenade launcher or Panzerfaust
M32 - Granatbuchse 39 (well, not the best replacement but there is no other silar weapon to M32)
Shotgun - no chice there: some WWI - WWII US shotgun
Hunting shotgun - can stay
AA12 - no idea on this, propably replaced by different weapon
Rocket launcher - Panzerschreck
Katana - medieval sword
Axe - shovel
Knife - bayonet
Chainsaw - no idea, propably can stay

It's month left before release, I don't think anything can be done within. It's not freelancing skinning. We already got player skins, if pre-order. So be happy with it.

lol why not +1

Think also player pack thingy is enough. but diffrent skins for a while would be cool!

 

[C_Gibby]

That's a bit of a big ask... It's a good idea, and I know we'd all enjoy it very much if it ever happened, it's just hardly reasonable to have it done. There's going to need to be new models, new textures, tons of new animation sets. Note that models and animations don't equal "skins." I think we'd all rather TWI spend their time and money creating all-new weapons for KF and for KF only, rather than re-doing all the stuff from RO2 to fit into KF for miminal gain.

No thanks. Old weapons are neat to look at through glass in a museum but I wouldn't want to use one, I'd rather use something more modern.

 

[nutterbutter]

You know skins and different from models and animations right?

 

[Judaeus Apella]

Wait... what?

Port weapons from Ostfront?

I don't know why it hasn't been attempted yet. The art has already been done, if Tripwire isn't against using assets from their other games anyway.

 

[Undedd Jester]

I wonder if Tripwire have considered bringing in the much loved RO_Danzig to join RO_Hedgehog as a setting for the slaughter of artificially created biological military weapons at the hands of charming cockney policemen.

Course would prbably need hell loads of reworlong to make it so that it isn't too exploitable. But hey ho.

as much as i would love to see this stuff implemented in celebration for the release of the next generation of "most realistic FPS ever made" it would take far too long to make the models and animations, but if a few buttons were pressed and a few codes thrown in, im sure it could use RO models and a few animation/timing tweaks.

This and again, I don't want tripwire spending their time working on seasonal and promotional gimmicks. I want them to use their time wisely and work on addressing the issues this game has, and focus on permanent content. I don't understand why the hell people want this temporary content. Its just a distraction from the real problems... like news programs talking about celebrity news instead of the damn debt problem. I don't care who wore what to what.

Yet you care about what some accountant in some bank decided was the debt? Or what some politicians decided was the debt ceiling so anything under that is ok, but the ceiling can be changed if they vote and it passes?

You're being messed with by tiny little men who are immensely powerful because they said so. Like back in high school, there would be a group of students who called themselves cool, and they would be cool because everyone else would accept that they were obviously inferior to the cool group.

Personally I like seasonal content and skins. It means that instead of it being an old game with old graphics and players varying from stupid noob to stupid elitist noob to elitist rager and nothing in between, the game for a while is fun, merry and plain enjoyable. I liked shooting clowns, the different visuals. Actually I just really like the circus so it was a blast. I also managed to get the unlock, even with servers not registering achievements, being dropped moments before a game finished, etc, like in the Christmas one. Didn't get the santa suit.. But oh well.

tl;dr
You care about celebrities, just in different sections, and I. Like. Clowns.

My opinion on OP, for whatever it's worth, is that it would be really cool to have a "flashback sequence" and end up in an RO setting teaming up to fight zombies. Not likely to happen though, we need to stick with official story and no "Americans" or Germans or Russians.

But steampunk accountants in a possible dream sequence/hallucination is ok.

um the animation is allready there lol? who would make a gun without animation? xD

or did u think that u only changed the skin? and then leave the old animation? haha that I think is even more work.

 

[teemu92]

ww2 stuff in KF would be amazing

 

[Leto Atreides]

It's not just a matter of porting skins from RO to KF. You would need to recreate a whole bunch animations to make them work with WWII weapons.

The Lever action rifle and Mosin Nagant are miles apart in term of how they need to be animated.

I like it. I think this event could draw a lot of new blood into killing floor, even without a sale.

It could be tough to implement though. I don't really know much about modding.
