The main premise
- Load up
Semi-immersive calibers and ammo interchangability, and a greatly expanded variety of mags/ammo types. Pick what’s best for the situation, or make do with what you’ve got!
- Take your pick
All weapon classes have unique and non-arbitrary quirks that give them all interesting playstyle variation, and each weapon has a particular niche within their class. Every weapon has special advantages and tradeoffs, because we believe every gun should have a purpose!
- Tinker around
Various gun family variants and ability to rechamber the firemode or caliber of a gun at a tradeoff, sometimes irreversibly, adding greater utility and thought to weapon customization. Some guns have folding stocks that can be interacted with as well. Guns are more durable and are repaired with semi-reusable cleaning kits - no more obnoxiously needy scrap sinks.
- Take aim
Gun handling, spread, recoil, visual recoil, and durability completely overhauled across the board to provide a more immersive yet more fun experience, and make every gun feel satisfying to use. Iron sights, scopes, and reticles have been redesigned.
- Do some damage
Custom damage multipliers, with zombie and animal damage varying unlike the vanilla game. Damage falls off over distance, giving every gun a separate effective range (sweet spot at which a gun does its full damage) and a max range (reduced damage).
- Reload
Extended mags and more powerful munitions have noticeably slower reloads, while smaller mags grant reload speed boosts. Drums can also totally change how a gun recoils!
- Explore
Descriptions that provide basic information about the stats and compatibility of guns and ammo. Nuanced differences - no two guns are the same. Play with many more loadout choices than are available in vanilla, and adapt one to your playstyle!
- Bring on the challenge!
This entire pack is balanced around max skills to bring challenge to players of all experience levels, and is greatly benefitted by the removal of hitmarkers, crosshairs, and third person. Master the increased mechanical depth and be rewarded with a more powerful and capable weapon sandbox.
