[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLixNK333DE&feature=player_embedded[/media] [quote]The time has come to finally start announcing some details of our attachment system, and I feel the suppressors would be a great place to start. Attachments can be obtained on weapons through our new load out menu, which has been completely been redesigned. In order to outfit your firearm with an attachment, or suppressor, you simply select the weapon you want and purchase the suppressor attachment for an additional 5 credits. Unlike the original Firearms, suppressor in FAS will not be determined by skills, nor will they be detachable. If you want a suppressor on your firearms, equip the suppressor, otherwise don’t. Additionally, every attachment in FAS will have its drawbacks as well. We want to make sure that attachments are used to not necessarily add an overall improvement, but more shape the gun into a new weapon that is just as balanced as it was before. While outfitting your weapon with every attachment known to man will still be possible, it could severely hinder the performance of your weapon.[/quote] Full news post: [url]http://firearms-source.com/2011/06/sound-of-silence/[/url]
Hoping to see this on steam soon.
2.0 will be released on Steam.
I'm not sure what to think of this at the moment. Going by the current release of FAS, the spirit of the original Firearms mod seems to have been lost. Doesn't look bad by any means however.
State and Federal Regulations require me to post that this mod...is looking pretty good.

Neato, so is firearms basically Call of Duty: Source, without the CoD inspiration (that being it's only similar in that it's a deathmatch game with some sort of loadout system)? I haven't actually heard much about this mods, but that's the impression I get from the video in the OP. Incoming dumbs because I cited Call of Duty :downs:
Kinda, more like a cross between DOD + CSS from what I played

It really bugs me how big the muzzleflashes are, even when the weapon is suppressed.

But let us not turn this thread into how much CoD sucks or anything, continue with the Firearms news Zeldar! I look forward to your work, mainly because this is the closest thing to a 'modern' shooter on the Source engine. It's a shitty 'modern-shooter' engine, but you made it work oh-so-well. Props to you.

:v: [editline]5th June 2011[/editline] Thanks anyway I guess haha.
[QUOTE=SteveUK;30253449]You know he has no affiliation with the FAS team right[/QUOTE] Oh, I know he's working on [i]some[/i] mod, so when he made the thread I suspected it was his. Oh well. It's still a pretty damn good mod, FA:S that is.
this mod looks good. my only problem is the player could probably rival Usain Bolt in how fast he is especially considering all the equipment they must be carrying
The sniper rifle suppressor sounds so awesome.
Why does the M60 have a silencer on it? :v:

Oh yeah, one thing that pissed me off was how much dmg the guns did. Are they resonably damaging now? I remember in the first release I had to load a full clip into someone to kill them.

If you flank someone and shoot them in the chest, you notice they go down a lot quicker.
I hope 2.0 comes out soon, I like FA:S but there's only like 1 active server now so I can't be assed to download it.

Could you tone down the blood a bit? It looks like you're shooting cans of red spray-paint.
