Splinter(nl) Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 The mainsite says the rebel main weapon is the dh-17 and it looks likt this: but the real dh-17 looks like this
Master William Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 Rebel scum propaganda, I'm telling you! But yes you are right
Luke'sMaster Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 It's just a game and if your going to make that big of a deal out of one gun that doesn't look EXACTLY like the real version then maybe you should get a job there so you could tell them that and they would fix it.
Lt. Havoc Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 They've thrown a lot of details out the window and shouldn't even bother basing anything on known model types because they're just opening themselves up to failure. There's a problem using artistic liberties while trying remain factual AND conform things to a balanced structure. Things get messed up here and there, player models get abandoned and potential gets lost. Sort of like the definition for opportunity costs.
lukeiamyourdad Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 Eh they only have to change the name of the weapon no big deal.

CortoCG Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 If we are going to get technical, that looks more like a modified Dragunov siper rifle.
yaebginn Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 Its jut a typo thing. It does look moe like a dragonov than an M16.
CortoCG Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 Actually it does look like a Dragunov rifle. I bet they used it as base to build up that sci-fi rifle.
yaebginn Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 I'll take that bet. If you win, you get fifty bucks, if I win, I get your soul!
lukeiamyourdad Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 CortoCG, say goodbye to your soul. http://www.partsofsw.com/bta280.htm It was built off an StG44(or MP44).
yaebginn Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 YES!!! This is actually the second soul I won in a bet. I lost mine once, too, but won it back real quick-like.
fuzzyfreaker Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 Well, there's your answer... I think the site just made a typo.
CortoCG Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 Btw, I knew it is based on an stg44 assault rifle, it's a german WWII gun and predecesor of the Kalashnikov AK series of assault rifles.. I didn't want to sound like a geek, but... Oh well, it seems that I'm surrounded. Next time I'll be a geek too .
lukeiamyourdad Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 Pffff...Like you know more about WWII rifles then me!
CortoCG Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 I don't think so. Since I'm no firearms expert, but I'll do my best to catch up. Btw, tell your avatar to stop pinching my ass .
Evil Dark Jedi Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 They seem to be completly different weapons to me.
