I got really pumped making this shotgun. Get it? Pump? HAH. I'm happy I replaced that old piece of shit of a shotty.

    1. Good idea, but the budget department's saying we can't afford to animate the frames on that.

  2. my memory is failing on this, will customization for the guns be a thing?

    1. No. There might be a few instances where we will see the shotgun without the front barrel attachment, but only for story or visual elements.

      The thought of having customizable parts... You could look for separate parts around the station, but then again it doesn't work too well because the missions aren't varied enough to justify different loadouts.

      What I would rather have is a customizable ammo system. In other video games, there's little sense in having custom ammo because they usually get the top quality stuff from ammo manufacturers. In a survival game, you'd have to worry about recycling the ammo shells, finding primer materials, making cheap ammo that might backfire on you, or making economical ammo with rounds that are easier to reuse, and so on. Choosing when to use the good stuff would be fun.

      At the moment however, I would rather focus on other aspects of the game. Having custom ammo or weapons does not seem integral to the experience.

    2. Oh definitely don't sacrifice core game aspects just for little side things.
