Burstfire in Weapon Description

Post by Kerek » 01 Mar 2017, 19:09

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):

If you inspect a weapon on burstfire mode, it will say so in the description.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):

Less effort in finding out if your weapon is toggled burst or not.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):

When you inspect a weapon, it tells you if its toggled on burts or not.

"This weapon's fire rate is switched to shoot in three round bursts."

"This weapon is set to fire a single round at a time."

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):

Just switch the little button on or off to quickly check.

That one old man that USED to run around as Engineer building retarded table forts and developing relationships on a questionable level with sentry turrets. Now I run around as someone equally stupid, doing equally stupid shit as a Medic. Oh and Pookie, that's also me.

http://prntscr.com/grdigl I totally succeeded in that btw, it was a badass kick-flip.

+1, QoL addition that will likely compliment the "chambered round" and "safety on" description.

I don't think this is needed at the moment. You can easily check it via the toggle itself, once you hold the gun. Which is really how it's supposed to work. Denied.
