Welcome to my mod. Since I've been playing Vegas 1 & 2 I've heard people complain that certain weapons in the game just aren't realistic. So I researched the weapons in the game and found... They were right! While I haven't adjusted characteristics like the steadiness (or lack thereof) of the weapons when being held or fired (yet, I just might later), I have changed just about everything else. WARNING!!! This mod increases the realism of the game, i.e. it is even more difficult. But since the game has been out for a while I thought people might be up for a little more of a challenge. I adjusted all the weapons to have characteristics closer to the real ones. Most weapons now have slightly better penetration. Weight and fire rate is also now proportional to the real weapon's. I took away unlimited pistol ammo. Movement speed is now proportional to the weapon's weight. Ammo carrying ability is also more realistic. Weapons feature realistic fire select options. Realistic silencers & more.
Here are some screenshots from the game to show some stats of all the modified weapons.
The stats are all relative to the rest of the guns in the game. And as the models haven't been changed I wanted to give people something to look at. In the original game there was very little variation between guns in a particular group (Shotguns, Assault Rifles, etc). By browsing the pictures you can get a decent idea of how the guns relate to each other. I would however be great if Vegas 2 did have more stats like fire rate, weight, or recoil.
So what state do you live in where pistol mags are only 10 rounds? MK23 is 12. USP 40 is 13. M9 9mm is 18 rounds...where did you get your information?
15 round mag in an MP5?
20 seconds of google brings up all this information...
except the M9 is 15+1.
In some states the civilian versions come with the ten round magazine. I wanted to keep an many options for add-ons as possible for weapons so I made the 10 round mag the standard mag and the other the extended mag. It would not be unrealistic if someone wanted to save space and weight for them to use the smaller mag.
I have now changed the mags to be more realistic in version 2.4 of my mod which is now out!
M468: Designed to work with the 6.8mm Remington SPC round this weapon fills the role of the weapons using the 5.56mm NATO round while giving the performance near the 7.62mm NATO round. A great all around weapon. Really this gun belongs in a separate category as it is really a PDW (Personal Defense Weapon) and not an assault rifle.
