A simple question

[Barfly]

Why is there ammo for the MG in Dieselpower and no MG?

If there is one I never found it, and I have never seen anyone use one either.
Actually that map could use one since the weapons are a bit scarce.

haha. You know what I've never noticed that. You're right though. Perhaps there is a MG hidden somewhere on the map that no one knows about. You can try hitting the key the weapon is bound to and it will tell you if the weapon is unavailable on the map.

i remember on DarkZone was a weapon (uzi, i think) behind a wall and on Oilrig was a rocketlauncher inside one of the pillars somewhere. don't remember one on Dieselpower. first who finds it gets a prize!

I think the simplest answer is that they confused the MG ammo with shotgun ammo. I've seen other people do that and even I have done that once. So they would think they places shotgun ammo on the map when in fact it's wrong.
I'm not sure, don't remember which map the Dieselpower is. If it is the map I'm thinking about (an official one) then either the devs made an error or it's all just a joke :p

It's open source so you could get the .map and search it.

Maybe strahlemann did it with quake 3 in the back of his head, you have the mg there as starting weapon and on some q3 maps you also have ammo for it

Why not MG as startweapon?

Why not MG as startweapon?

Way to powerful.

Haven't you played online where everyone uses the MG and no one can do anything. Especially in CTF maps. Voosh!

[Chubby]

What if you make it less powerfull?

Then it would be a very boring weapon, and what would you do with the shotgun? Nope, nothing will form from this. This is already working really good, no need to change anything.
