andrewj Posted January 15, 2016 It's not a weapon though, it is only ammo. If the zombieguys dropped a different item from the ammo, then that could make sense being a pistol, unfortunately it is the same thing. 0 Share this post Link to post
Shadow Hog Posted January 15, 2016 I know ZDoom has a Pistol Thing, but it's the only source port I'm aware of that goes to that length (largely because you can drop weapons in it, Pistol included). 0 Share this post Link to post
raymoohawk Posted January 15, 2016 mhh, i think this was a bad idea after arll probably it should look like an actual clip and not a magazine 0 Share this post Link to post
MrFlibble Posted January 16, 2016 I've always thought it a bit strange that the pistol clip in Doom can also be used with the chaingun. Are there any real-life examples of pistol clips used the same way? If not, maybe the pistol/chaingun ammo pickup could be something else, like a small box of ammo maybe? I know it's bland, but I have no better ideas ATM, and my general knowledge of firearms isn't that good.
