BrotherReaperGrymm Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Weapons Mod Penalties are not immersive or realistic.Every weapon I've ever used was not slowed down by a scope or a larger magazine. I'm as accurate with a pistol as I am with a rifle. Someone should make a mod that gets rid of the weapons mod penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sollitdude Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 uhmm, i dont fully understand your situation here. you first explain that there arnt any weapon mod penalties, and then you ask us to make a mod that removes that non existing thing.

razorpony Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I think he meant every weapon he's used IRL doesn't get slowed down by such things. Although I don't know how many 100rd drum mags he's used, that much weight will def make the weapon heavier and a bit harder to move around quickly. The thing to understand is that weapon mods in the game are a tactical decision, and if there were no penalties at all then you'd simply use the top mod in each category and there would be no reason for the others. With upsides and downsides you have to make a decision: Do you want a lot of ammo and a powerful scope? Or would you settle for less ammo and magnification if it meant faster firing rate? This is how game designers create balance so all the mods can be useful and not just the top 5. Another RL example is suppressors. Shooting standard ammo with a suppressor makes little sense as you're still going to have to deal with the sonic boom from the bullet. This is why subsonic ammo exists. The bullet is slower, quieter, and has less range and knockdown power. It's a trade-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main thing that doesn't make sense is the receiver mods increasing accuracy, penetration etc.... & the legendary mods. If someone were to get rid of these then bring back the ammo system that was in New Vegas the game would be quite a bit more balanced and realistic.Would also be nice if we could get all the weapons from New Vegas back as well.
