Make semi-automatic weapons PROPERLY semi-automatic

Postby DarkDXZ » Sat Mar 17, 2012 12:45 pm

So right now, we've got semi-auto rifle, full-auto SMG and pump-action (semi-auto, somewhat) shotgun.


Theoretically, as you can hold down LMB and rifle and shotgun will still fire.
So they're automatic with low ROF.

What I want to change with that, is to make them properly semi-automatic this way, that you have to actually repeatedly click LMB, or else they wouldn't shoot.

A minor idea, yet would be somewhat...Useful? Realistic? Whatever...

To make them properly realistic, you'd need more than that. After all, semi-auto weapons fire a bullet whenever the trigger is pulled, so to make them "properly" semi-auto, smashing the left mousebutton should make the rifle spray bullets, which would greatly unbalance the weapons.

Holding down the LMB is just an easier way of representing the solider pulling the trigger repeatedly,

Having a shot EVERY SINGLE time you clicked LMB would to insane.

No sane person would ever hold down LMB on the semi ;)

I think it would actually be really neat to have semi 1 click 1 shot. If someone is fast enough to line up shots within .5 of a second, then good for them!

ALthough I never hold LMB with the semi (recoil), this is a good idea.
