Can't change fire mode (PC keyboard)
I aim and press 2 and the AR15 won't change modes. I mapped 9 as a secondary and that does not work either. Any idea how to I can change fire mode?

The one you have is probably an AR15 raider, the firemode is locked to full auto and has a drum mag. It's pretty much useless though, a regular AR15 is way better.

Not all weapons have the ability to change firing modes.

I just tried the AR-15 and it only has single shots. They must have change it at some point, I also try the GSG-W which I'm sure had multiple modes and now it only has single shot too.

Try the mp5.

There are multiple types of each gun too, so you could have one AR that is set to single shot while other can have multiple modes, etc.

I am a 100% positive, that my guns had multiple fire modes, I use the same weapons since my first playthrough, they must've change it.

AR15 is single fire im pretty sure bud, you'll want an M4A1 or its variants if you wanna full auto :)

i think you've been watching to much left wing news, an ar-15 isn't an assault rifle, it's semi-auto

I have fired both M-16 and AR-15. If there were an actual zombie apocalypse I would choose the AR. It is a little smaller, uses the same ammo, and full auto is just a waste of ammunition.

Whether or not to call them an assault rifle is just semantics. It does not change their lethality.

I checked and you are correct. I scrapped it to get the ammo.

You don't have to scrap guns to get the ammo. Unloading guns is a thing in this game.

The Raider's AR15 is really great in the hands of a NPC survivor, though. But yes, in your hands it's just wasting ammo unless you're killing a Plague Heart.

give the raiders ar15 to an npc with the best brake you can get and load it with just a single bullet

You don't even need that single bullet (this was necessary in SoD1 iirc). I add that one to keep track of the weapons that I use, though. Full mag = a gun I use myself, 1 round/shell = NPC base defense gun, empty = collection or for sale. Makes it easier to find what I'm looking for.

how can you unload a weapon?
