I recently rebooted development of ZMBE and here you can find some info on the new features:
Weapon handling in ZMBE 2.0
New weapon features:
Ironsighting
Each firearm can be aimed down the sights to increase accuracy. (And because there is no crosshair provide the only reasonable way to aim). Sighted weapons will have a slightly reduced mouse turn speed and the movement speed of the player is greatly reduced.
------------
New weapon featuresManual action slideFollowing the concept of manual pump action, the Makarov pistol will have this feature integrated into its operation. The slide pull-back is needed in two situations:
1) If the weapon was completely emptied, the slide locks back and remains like this until a fresh magazine
is loaded. After this, the player has to press the secondary fire button to release the slide catch. The
slide will move back forth, load a new bullet into the chamber and the weapon is ready to fire.
2) If the weapon is jammed, a quick slide pull is needed to fix the problem. Pulling the slide back in this situation will also eject the bullet that was in the chamber.
Note:
You can also pull back the slide whenever you want, to impress your fellow survivors without any of
the two situations being the case. It comes with a satisfying click sound at the cost of an ejected
bullet.
------------
Analog ammo checkingInstead of having information about the weapons' ammunition status on the hud, players will have to manually remove the magazine from the weapon and "see for themselves" for many bullets are left. This is accomplished by the new "Ammo check" key. When pressed, the magazine is removed from the weapon for a brief second and the player can literally see the amount of bullets left in the magazine. The makarov pistol has a large cut-out area on the magazine which makes this easy to check. The beretta M9 however does not, and the viewmodel hands will literally put the magazine close to the player camera so one can take a look.
------------
Analog magazine checkingThe amount of magazine is displayed by pressign the "ammo-checking" key. The left hand reaches in the pouch and after some fumbling in the pocket all magazines that are in the inventory will be held up briefly.
------------
Gun jamEach weapon has a very small chance to misfire and jam itself. To unjam, pull the slide back to eject the jammed bullet.
More to come..
There are quite a few more features, however these remain my dark dark sekrat.....
Hop by our new forums and voice your opinion! You like our manual action pumping in 1.2? then you will love 2.0. If you hate us for it, man the flamestationz! You will hate us even more!
