SA80 (L85A2) problem

Lucifus · 03-28-2007, 04:04 PM

First off thanks for a fantastic MOD!! This is by far the most fun bf2 mod around. Well done.

As a former British soldier im loving the realism of the game. One thing that really stands out everytime I play the game though is the way the SA80 rifle is used. In the mod (same as bf2 mod) the soldier cocks the rifle with his right hand. This is wrong. In reality this rifle is cocked with your left hand by tilting the rifle to the left and reaching over to cock it. This way you can keep your right hand and trigger finger on the pistol grip. Hopefully this will be changed in future.

Keep up the good work guys!

yeah rgr, we just cant seem to keep animators around for any length of time hehe. We have lots of past and presently serving military advisors on the team and it's a peeve for them too. Hopefully we'll get it fixed, but the problem is we always have such a backlog of animation work that anytime one pops up we have a bunch of stuff for them to do that has a greater impact on game play than the reloading animation problem.

Apparently, lead is not good for you if ingested, at any velocity. And whilst I'm here, you're not a PC and Windows 7 wasn't your idea, live with it!!!
