Now hear me out, everyone’s favorite pair of guns, the P2020 and Mozambique have always been outclassed and unused by players. Now what if we had it so if you had two in your inventory and you colle...

    @DarthValtrex  Would be pretty straight forward.

    ADS replaced by second weapon.

    Akimbo specific weapon slot.

    I would say if this was every implemented they would have to give an akimbo weapon set the slowest switch speed simply because the power of it as a switch out would be pretty nasty.

@MassiveVernon I would not want to see it be OP, but competitive yeah it could be fun. The big question I have is what would the control set up look like on console? I would want to be able to control the guns independently of each other.

Break shields with one, shred health with the other. The combos would have to be refined so they are not too OP.

The other question I have, how would dual wield impact inventory? Would you carry 3 guns? or be stuck with 2? 3 guns with the current inventory system would be tricky.

Yeah it would definitely need a lot of thought into the balancing really to make it viable to use and not too op. I can’t imagine three guns working really, too much messing around when changing weapons and such . Maybe just a new type of gold weapon , like a pick up that drops when you switch weapon/ run out of ammo? Or maybe a hop up that combines them both if you have two equipped , then leaves you a free space for a new weapon ? Not sure tbh

Edit: or just what mandatory said haha

    @MassiveVernon  A hop up would definitely be more streamlined, I just thought it'd be easier to find a second mozambique than it would to find a gold hop up. 😛

    Purely lazy logic on my part. XD

      @MandatoryIDtag I don't know if doing this with hop up guns is a good idea. Especially if the combo is really reliant on the other to be effective. P2020 is not bad if you have something to break shields. But it's not good on its own. If it was to complex to put together (to many hop ups and attachments) then people won't bother trying. It will be too much risk wondering around looking for pieces to make the puzzle work.

        @DarthValtrex  I'd remove hop ups from these weapons completely if akimbo was added if it was up to me.

        An akimbo mozambique could literally be utilized to perform like the april fools bique if you alternated your triggers quickly...hammerpoints would overwhelm its damage output.

        Same could he said for the p2020 with its hipfire accuracy and a quick trigger finger.

        Like you said earlier, the balancing would he difficult.
