Realistic weapon balance

Rebalanced reload, accuracy, damage and rate of fire. It is more in line with historical accuracy and achieves the perfect combination of authenticity and gameplay.

Real Weapon Balance

🎯 Short description

• Weapons have become more realistic in most aspects
• Reload speed significantly slowed down
• The accuracy of almost every weapon has been adjusted and you can clearly feel the difference
• Damage values ​​are more balanced
• Each firearm has been individually adjusted, and some weapons have been specially remade
• The gaming experience will be less arcade-y

💥 Damage and Ammo

• Special ammunition is more powerful
• All revolvers have damage equivalent to Schofield (based on the same caliber design)
• When an NPC uses a powerful weapon (shotgun, Spencer, Springfield), the player will receive full damage
• Removed explosive ammunition for Pistol, LeMat and Navy to enhance authenticity
• Headshot damage to players is reduced from 10x to 3x (to prevent the enemy from being killed in one hit)
• The weapon status bar displays the original data, and the actual value has been changed.

⚡ Loading and rate of fire

• Fixed an issue in the original game where some weapons could fire before loading was complete
• Increased fire rate for all semi-automatic pistols, shotguns, bolt-action rifles, Litchfield and Volcano pistols
• Reduced the rate of fire of Carbines, Cattlemen's Revolvers and Marines
• The rate of fire of worn weapons is further reduced, and the difference between old and new weapons is more obvious
• The rate of fire of NPCs on horseback is the same as or lower than on foot

🔄 Reloading system

• Reloading speed is greatly slowed down (1.5-3 times)
• Partially affects the reloading speed of NPCs
• The reloading process can be interrupted after loading 1 bullet (original version requires 2 rounds)
• Weapon proficiency can increase reload speed by up to 20% (original version is 10%)

🎯 Accuracy adjustment

• Adjusted the accuracy of short guns, shotguns and repeaters based on target distance
• The difference in accuracy between near and far distances is more obvious
• The range of all firearms has been increased

🔧Specially remade weapons

• **Carbine Repeater**: Slow rate of fire, slow reloading, low accuracy, high damage
• **Lancaster**: Ammo capacity reduced from 14 rounds to 12 rounds
• **Litchfield**: Same damage as Lancaster, but retains 16-round capacity and increased rate of fire
• **Cattle Dealer's Revolver**: Damage increased, reload speed significantly slower than Schofield
• **Double Action Revolver**: caliber changed from .38 to .45, damage increased
• All revolvers are now equally powerful!

🛠️ Weapon accessories

• Long barrel accessories: +5% damage, +15% accuracy, +10% wear rate
• Shotgun Long Barrel: +15% Accuracy (vs. 10%)
• Schofield Short Barrel: +10% rate of fire, -30% accuracy

🔫 Recoil

• Added recoil effects for first-person rifles and shotguns
• You can truly feel the body vibration when the weapon is fired
