M14 officially added when?

[macdaddymario]

Like the title says. When the game was announced, it was clearly showcased that SWAT member were using the M14. The M14 is in the game, I'm over having to use a mod to use a gun that was shown to be used by the SWAT members at reveal.

When are we getting it officially added so we can use it?

It's possible they might add it after 1,0 or you'll just have to settle for a mod. I'm not really aware of that many SWAT teams IRL that have used the M14.

Last I heard from devs, the M14 will be replaced with an M1A

Sure. But by that metric, not too many US SWAT teams out in LA clamoring to use a 357 revolver at this point either.

If I remember correctly from Reddit, the M14 will not be returning

So they sold the game on promise of weapons that get scrapped? I defend a bunch of stuff in here. Not this one.

Much has changed about the game, including content showcased in the past. A lot of maps that were around during the trailer you likely saw are not there anymore, including models, suspects, etc.

In exchange, they've given way more guns and a lot more maps than what was originally planned. The point being, things change, and one gun does not make a big difference.

For *you*.

I, for another, bought the game on the promise of what was shown in the reveal. One of those things being an accurately modeled, animated, and accurate ballistics modeled M14. A weapon that in many modern games gets glossed over and forgotten about. So when you're using that imagery to sell your game initially, it can be reasonably expected to be there at full release.

Unfortunately then, as mentioned, the M14 is not planned to return to the game at this time. However, you are free to use the mods that unlock it in-game, assuming the model remains in the files, but they haven't discussed whether or not those kinda files have been removed. Worst case scenario as well, a modder puts it back in using the planned SDK.

idk why they would have put a 1950s military service rifle in the hands of swat in 2020

As I said above. It's important that we read all messages.

So we're in agreement then, that we need to be pulling weapons they wouldn't otherwise use at this point? If we're going to argue against ensuring the M14 gets added as it should?

That's ALWAYS the risk you run when supporting early access games. things change, sometimes drastically. Take Project F4E for example. That game started out planned as a pve coop moba type thing, and now it's some weird kinda pvpve moba extraction shooter mix.

Not saying it's nessesariely the right thing to do, but sometimes the nessesary thing to do for whatever reason the respective dev teams might have, and we as players have no other option than accept it, or move on, as much as it sucks at times.

And you don't advert weapons on your original webpage that you don't intend to sell.

As such. I'll not be accepting nor moving on. Any time an update is posted, expect a post asking about the weapon. Much like anytime PlanetSide2 gets updated, I'm on their forum asking about the promised console release of H1Z1's survival mode.

Then have fun wasting your time, buddy xD You deserve the jester, yet you do not deserve the points, so just know that i laugh wholeheartedly about how you seem to enjoy wasting our time on useless endeavors that never will bear fruit of any kind.
