on the 3 weapon system or 1 weapon system...

[MFCISFUNNY]

why couldnt you just put in a secondary weapon if you chose as a gadget like say a desert eagle or sumthin? ??? Doesnt that gun shoot .50 cal bullets? if so i think theyre should be a big blood splat on the back wall. especially for a headshot.

A secondary weapon for the Merc is an option we're considering.

[Farley4Fan]

Backup meaning like a pistol?  Man, I'd sooo love a revolver/desert eagle as a merc.

[Gawain]

wtf did i miss something? oO
3 weapons are already too much, now you wanna add a sidearm weapon? why in the world would the gameplay benefit from something like this? oO

[Gui Brazil]

I'm pretty sure he means only 1 main weapon (instead of 3) and a sidearm.

[InvisibleMan999]

Unless you allow a merc to carry two of the standard guns (which would be useful), carrying a pistol would just suck altogether and I really can't see a good reason to have it, except maybe for a shotgun user who has crap for long range. Given you can reload at any ammo boxes, you honestly don't need a backup weapon. Running out of bullets is already a relatively trivial concern for experienced mercs anyway.

We can discuss it. Perhaps it should be instead of ordinary tazer ? Taking this, would mean that you can take only 3 of your other gadgets: http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/homesecuritystore/advanced-taser.jpg

The range might be better than in ct. Also making tazer like this, would mean that time for reloading is needed. Perhaps spy could also do something when merc misses.

In case the sidearm is an ordinary pistol. What could be it's use ? Why should someone use pistol instead of just using or reloading the main ?

[MR.Mic]

I say one main gun from the choices of rifle, smg, or shotgun. Also Include an extremely weak pistol for shooting out bombs and stuff at a distance, for shotgun users.

Not a bad idea.

[Farley4Fan]

I didn't think about gameplay, or say anything about it.  I just think it would be fun to pop a spy with deagle or a revolver.  You could do the one weapon system and give it a little less ammo.  It might not be a good idea, but it would be good for taunting someone as the final blow. 

Of course, a desert eagle would be a little too powerful.  I suggest the M9, not too powerful, but it gets the job done.  OR, you could go with a usp .40

I suggest anything that is done by kebab, I win, thx.

but think about shooting a spy with a Deagle. a .50 cal pistol. i dont know why but when im playing call of duty 4 modern warfare with the Barrett or Deagle, theres always that little feeling for me that makes me wanna say "Hey, I just shot you in the head with a .50 cal bullet, hows that feel?!" it always gives me a feeling of satisfaction lol. I don't know about you guys but i think it just might give you that same feeling

[Farley4Fan]

Hell yeah it gives me that feeling.  BUT, we don't want the pistol to be that powerful, or .50 cal for that matter.

[MFCISFUNNY]

Yea I see what you mean. maybe a USP .40 then or something.

[MR.Mic]

I suggest that the pistol do absolutely zero damage to players, but can disable bombs and cameras with high-accuracy (very narrow cone of fire but no zoom).

Perhaps call it a remote electronics disabler.
