cap and ball pistol's and make automatic pistols rarer
model 1887 from mw2
double barrel
martini henry single shot style of rifle
moison nagant or enfield style bolt actions
jury rigged SMG's
super rare ak style gun's it share a moison nagant's ammo
a weak magnifying scope
razor's
hunting knifes/bayonets
spears with different tips
knifes with different blades
garden tool's (just a random thought)

Also an m1 grand rifle and do away with the m4.

maybe you could make more important weapons if you get the machinery to make them? like from blueprints you could make some of the machines used for making the modern weapons such as the in-game M4 and then use the modern-weapon blueprints to make them using those? like the workbench but for people who want to use more modernized weapons like the ones running the game now. you could also craft maybe some specialty ammo like that? maybe just some AP rounds for fighting higher armored opponents. they are also adding in a heli that will fire rockets and machine guns at people in the open and rockets at bases to wreck them, don't worry though, they are later adding a way to shoot them down for a good prize and they will not be as common as airdrops.

Some ideas I've been mulling over:

Upgraded arrows that use iron to make the tips and cause more damage?

Definitely single shot rifle (or at most bolt action), something you hope to God that you kill them with a head shot or are far enough away from them. It should not have a scope, or at most, one that is almost NO zoom but just adds the crosshairs. And as many have suggested, give it some difficulty. Don't have the rifle be a point-click-one formula. Make it have some skill involved with bullet drop and leading the target.

how about instead of high tech high powered weapons we go the more mundane route with throwing spears, harpoons, modified bows, crossbows, etc? This is a survival game and i feel adding more hand made weapons to the mix would make the game feel more alive

[choukri-37]

No modern wepons in mine opinion you need to have wepons like the game metro last night!

[elderfapwiz]

I think the modern weapons should only be found instead of crafted. Im pretty sure modern weapons are here to stay since they are adding a helicopter and cars.

I hope you do realize that Mosin Nagant is Russian and Lee Enfield is English.

Really cool idea. What could even improve this? Fire arrows and the priceless moment of someone setting a house on fire.

Great, then it will be arsonist-galore.... If we have it where anything inside the house get's destroyed in the fire, I'm all for it. That way, raiders won't resort to burning your base down every time.

Its not the raiders you have to worry about, its the fact that most people can be asshats and do it for fun

Interesting choice. You play Black Ops 2 much? The models in game are popular weapon models. If I were to pic a sniper of choice it would be a L96A1 or Berrett .50 Cal. (gotta love the classic cods)

w0t? Who the fuck would think of shitops when it comes to the AS50? He's clearly speaking of DayZ, tool.

That is true! Greifers in Minecraft do destruction they do for the "fun" of it.

AK-47 would be nice. And dont start with high tech weapon because ANYONE can fix this gun... anyone.

For high tech.. stuff like P90, TAR-21 or maybe fnf2000 or some bullpup AK. Or maybe even Heckler & Koch G11. !

[Kooz]

glock 18, or Deagle

[SteelBolt]

L96A1. (Required blueprint, more rare then getting kevlar vest, and same for bullets, same rare rate, bolt action 300 range, 3 shot kill on kevlars. I would love to have that in my server.

[Pole-E-Yester]

They are adding hand-made rifles and pistols... Here is a model of Rifle http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?...ht=Rifles+Rust
I don't believe they are adding any High Powered assault rifles into the game anytime soon

why not for once a normal gun? just a plain old common hunting rifle with a scope that should be enought .. otherwise i want a ww2 tiger tank to counter that sniper mounted with rocket launchers!..like why should it be the worst rifle in the world when there isn't even a desert eagle in the game?..should be nice if the thinking was made outside of cod games

Then could we have guns from World War II?
