Some time this week, be glad about that.

So can we get an Actual release date?

.... They're already adding all of those except the handgun >.<

They should add an extra weapon slot to put a handgun in and they should lower the smg recoil a little and a shotgun addition would be cool.

Snipers overpowered and shotguns underpowered? Thats what everyone is saying anyway. The coming days of AoS are going to be interesting.

i think the heavy mg would be the best. just something to bridge the gap between the smg and the semi.

Also to make shotgun more worth the close range, if your say, 10 blocks away you get blown back maybe 10 blocks.

i think that a pistol would be sweet so u could have to weapons even make a class system

We Need A Mortar NOW!

You dont have to, iv put you on the rank lists as corporal "Hunter" . If you realy want to change it to corporal or hunter then go to offtopic and find the thread called "titles" or something along those lines, and make a request there =].

dont worry done how do i change member to corporal ???

Click the profile button in the top black bar, then click edit information. In the first name bar type out the name with [HK] in front, then on the drop down menu, choose the option that now has [HK] in front.

how do i do that ??? without making a new account ???

^Bro dont forget to put [HK] in front of your name ;D

quote "Rocket Jump"

what in a destructive environment ???

all i want is a luncher...

I would like to mention at this point that the sniper rifle votes are because of fraudulent voting, and should be ignored. I think the legitimate winner is the shotgun.

Also, I agree with what people said earlier about adding a medic/ammo bearer class. Personally, I would like to be able to choose either of those with the "." key (after you have chosen your weapon, the "ammo pack" or "medic kit" would then be selectable). You could use either of them a limited amount of times on yourself and the people around you.

the shotgun honestly just sounds like people want it because they suck with the SMG, but it will probably be a good addition anyway. i think it will be cool, if it is added

since the sniper rifle is probably going to win, i am hoping for quick scoping to be a method in this game.

IT IS BAD! the sniper is not suppose to have 100 votes, THE SHOTTIE IS

Don't you hate when other people's decisions affect how your game is going to be?

Anyway, I voted for the machine gun. It would have been for the assault rifle, but I only had one choice and the prospect of a LMG/GPMG is just too much to pass up. Seems like the sniper rifle's gonna win it, which isn't that that that bad...I guess.

Thankyou for setting this up. I dont think new weapons should be priority number one. (Even less dynamic crosshairs or the camera wobble.)

Base infrastructure needs more reward. AoS is unique because players can shape the environment.

hehehehehe

@drewdog: A melee weapon and three guns? Does part of your implementation plan involve slowing the player's walking speed down?

I've pointed out before that most soldiers go into combat with just ONE gun. Two guns is something I'm a bit opposed to, but there's real-life precedent there. Most common is a "large" gun (rifle, machine gun, shotgun) and melee weapon (bayonet, knife), at least for the WWI - Vietnam era. Adding some grenades to the mix isn't stretching things too horribly far, or replacing the melee weapon with a pistol, but a rifle, shotgun, AND a pistol? Get real.

Most standard infantry from about 1750 until around the turn of the century was equipped with a rifle and a bayonet. From before 1900 that was the way everyone in an infantry unit was usually equipped, with the eception of the company commander, who'd usually have a sidearm and a sword. Even the NCOs generally had the same types of weaponry as the rest of the company.

During the WWI - Vietnam period, some new stuff started to show up in companys. Bayonets were still in common use, but new things such a grenades arrived. Company commanders started replacing their swords with the same rifles the rest of the company used, but retained their sidearms. Companies started getting a few light machine guns, which some members of the company used instead of rifles. Sidearms became a bit more common. At this point, the standard armament for a soldier is a single gun, some grenades, and a bayonet or knife. He might just have a sidearm, probably instead of the grenades, since there's a maximum amount of weight he can carry. Chances are he's also sacrificed his grenades if he has a machine-gun, since he'd rather have more ammunition.

So reasonable combinations might be Rifle-Grenade-Knife, Rifle-Pistol-Knife, SMG/LMG-pistol, and things of that sort. But three guns... that's just too many.

in your inventory you should have a pick that does damage, a pistol (replace shovel), the rifle, and a shottie (replace grenade)

that is all

Ben add the shottie please!

@TheGreatKhan
I agree

I choose sniper rifle BUT the sniper rifle used to be the semi, but now with that shitty cone of fire you would have to go trough coding a new weapon to compensate the loss of accuracy in the semi. If you just remove the cone of fire, you could make it so that the semi is a sniper rifle and you could work on a more unique gun. I mean really the sniper rifle will just be like a gun with a zoom-able scope that has increased accuracy, I personally would like to see something more unique than that!
As I suggested before:
Landmines

Sniper has more votes now.

EDIT: Why the hell do we need a sniper anyway? We already have that.

Yep just ran the tracer, most of the sniper votes are coming form the same IP.
