Multi Holster

[gerickk]

I just though it'd be cool if your character could holster multiple weapons.

It just seems stupid how if you wanted to switch your weapon, you press a bind and boom, your pistol disapears and an assault rifle pops on your back, it just bothers me

 

 

 

For example you could have a rifle slung on your back with a pistol on your right.

Im not sure how TWO pistols would be holstered on both your left AND right. But If anyone has any ideas please share.

 

Same goes for melee weapons and explosives. Maybe its possible to back holstered weapons to clip on each other.

 

I Just think that Having Multiple weapons holstered,

like a revolver on your right, an assault rifle on your back, couple of nades shown, maybe a knife is just completely BADASS compared to walking around with a pistole slung on your right.

 

This definetly gives you a "traveler/armed/wanderer" feel to your character

 

EDIT ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The PRIMARY weapon that is currently being holstered will be shown,

but the other weapon(s) (AKA SECONDARY?) would be purely aesthetic, and also holstered on your back, or your side.

press your bind, and a weapon wont just disapear and another pop out, you will select another weapon to be your Primary weapon. The Primary Weapons are the weapons wielded, the secondary is Aesthetic, ( Just For Show )

If you choose to equip the secondary weapons ( by pressing a bind, or othermeans) the Primary weapon you Switched out will still be shown "holstered" whether on your belt, or back, But its aesthetic, AND it wont be the one you pull out to use and shoot with

 

Your Character will be shown with Assault rifle on back, Pistol On Side.

Assault Rifle Binded to 1, Pistol binded to 2

Press 1 , the rifle's selected to primary, clicking result in you pulling out the rifle, with the pistol STILL holstered.

hold r to holster, press 2, Pistols selected to primary.

Click again, instead you pull out the pistol, the rifle will STILL remain holstered on your back.

 

Thats just a simple way of saying how it would work. If any one can share ideas and expand this concept to holstering more than 2 weapons, please do.

 

 

 

To Prevent Confusion on which weapons you excatly are holstering, You can just check your pip boy, or maybe add the name of the primary weapon holstered on the HUD, below the ammo count or cnd bar.

 

 

 

Just sharing my idea. If any modders are interested, id be more than happy to assist
