Russian revolver

can someone explain why the Russian revolver is a backward firing revolver that isn’t modeled properly ?

it wouldn’t be hard to make it a normal revolver, using a unique ammunition. a traditional ww1 pistol round would work wonders. load it with blanks. blanks don’t shoot bullets but work for the execution shot. it would prevent a lot of deaths that are entirely the fault of the dev crew.

or make things easier and remove the Russian revolver.

i wonder why it is called russian revolver
:thinking:
why not call it reverse revolver and model it like this

the entire point of the russian revolver is to test your luck at dying/living

you don’t need bullets to blow someone’s head off. the propellant that moves bullets is plenty capable of doing that without a projectile.

remodel it, rework it, remove it. do something please.

Russian revolvers been in goon since 2010 or so, and has been spread through almost all the codebases, only being removed in some bay / citadel code.

It’s not going to be removed from bee because your whineing that it’s immersion breaking.

True clown moment.

Removing the bullet and replacing blanks won’t help at all, I’ve been playing with people and i told them to shoot at foot so they don’t die, 5 mins later some guy got his brain blown because “foot is for chickens”
People LOVE dying by russian revolver

Removing the revolver? Even anti-fun coders aren’t that cruel

And i don’t see the problem with the model (you mean sprite right?)

No one can force you to play russian roulette to head, go on and remove/change it, people will find another way for fun

The russian revolver is there to kill yourself that’s what the game’s about and the devs made sure you cant just kill yourself while trying to shoot someone else by making you have to click on yourself to use it and with a warning message. Pure bruh

i honestly thought this was a joke
because have you never heard of russian roulette?

It doesn’t fire backwards, upon using it you use it like a russian revolver and put it to your own head, hence why the barrel isn’t textured backwards.

If you die to the russian pistol, it’s your fault. The game won’t safeguard you against everything, especailly when there is a pistol called ‘russian revolver’.

Also it’s funny to watch new people kill themselves with it lol

That means they’re doing good

using a unique ammunition type and having the firearm start with blanks loaded with solve a lot of problems, and the Russian revolver wouldn’t need to be special.

7.62x25mm Tokarev

HA
That is funny

You are clown, and BAB do not talk about “7.62x25mm Tokarev” for a russian revolver

Yu r bab

I sure didn’t do research

I see no reason to change the ammo type, why? To be more realistic? ss13 is unrealistic AF. To prevent crew from dying? You can take the gun and point to your foot instead of head, no one forced you to play pointed to head

its to have fewer unique items. with a more easily understandable mechanics ss13 will be easier to learn.

using blanks means you don’t have to have a whole new item type for a Russian revolver.

“remove content from the game so it’s easier to learn”

Jellico is a fucking riot

That already exists in the game and is used by some rare enemies. Using the same ammo as the mosin.
