Blackpowder guns

[tinyderangedgoldfish]

So, we got the blunderbuss. Now, what about a rifle and pistol variants?
Have those been added and I am missing them?
But, if they did have black powder rifles, what one? A musket, a flintlock, a breach loader?
I have no idea.
But that would be cool.

A20 is coming out with a series of pipe weapons, the blunderbuss itself is being removed and replaced by a pipe shotgun.

There was a thread on this exact thing just a week ago wasn't there?

Yeah, I am kind of sad about that. However, I am also looking forward to the pipe rifles. Bitter-sweet.
Much dramatic.

I'd kinda like a mod that let you use scrap iron and wood to make a musket and blunderbuss for A20, with the same ammo recipe as blunderbuss ammo as A19.

But that can wait for after Monday.

Don't worry, as there will surely be a mod that will add back in the blundy once the game is done, unless it exists already, if the blunderbuss is your thing.

Pipe weapons are replacing the starting type guns, as others have said. Should not be too long now for A20 and we can check them out.

I'm not. Damn things were everywhere. EVERYWHERE. Need a hunting rifle? Oops! All blunderbuss! Screw those stupid things. I'm glad they're going.

The good thing about the lower tier weapons like the blundy and (I assume) the pipe weapons is, that they repair with the simplest of materials and do not need repair kits. People sometimes forget that advantage that they have. Ammo is nothing special to craft either, as it can also be made with the simplest of materials.

Pretty sure the pipe weapons still need cased ammo (bullets) from what I have seen in the dev streams, although not sure about the pipe shotgun, exactly.

EDIT.......

Ok, after checking one of the streams again, I see the reload animation for the pipe shotgun does in fact appear to include regular shells, so they will need regular ammo.

To be fair, weapon repair kit are dirt cheap to make. Unless they changed the recipe to be more expensive in A20, I will never see this as an advantage
