"one of the best weapon mods around" ah yes..nothing like a gun thats just a model with the rest of it being nothing but bland crap with a terrible animation that doesnt even work and the most basic gunsound..awesome..
You have to understand that this gun was made back at the very beginning of 2016, pretty much a few months after FO4 released. Back then there were no specialized mods like we have today, even the GECK wasn't out yet (It released on April 2016 iirc).
It's understandable then that a lot people downloaded not just this weapon but a lot of others from the same author. And yes, nowadays mods like this don't seem like much, but back then this was all you can get.
I know, right? Zero idea why this is so highly rated. It's not like adding weapons to a leveled list takes 5 minutes in the CK or FO4Edit and makes the weapon not immersion-breaking or annoying to get.
I installed this thing and completely forgot that I had it installed until after I finished my playthrough and went through my modlist to endorse all the mods I liked.
This thing needs leveled list support. Actually non-negotiable at this point.
It's highly rated bc it was released in the very early days of FO4 modding and got popular then. It was one of the very first M16 mods ever made, created before the Creation Kit was released (or before any DLC at all was released). It's still highly rated because FO4 modding will never be as active as it was in 2016-17, so other better weapon mods won't dethrone it for a while. The RU556 (example of a superior mod) is getting close, but still has yet to dethrone it. These days there are way better ones out there (like my personal fav, MACE).
Well, I am not gonna sugarcoat it, this weapon is a complete disappointment, for me at least. I expected so much more from the most Endorsed Weapon Mod. Some critique: Customisation is pretty lacking, barely viable in Late Game and the worse part are the Animations...which really pains me to see.
Still I appreciate the time you put into it, maybe I am just spoiled
Amazing, for all your demands and complaints, your contribution to the modding community is exactly nothing You amount to nothing and so does your opinion Re-evaluate your life choices fam
+1 No aggression TheWill, but I fundamentally disagree. For me this is a 10/10. Rather than being disappointed, why not help by making a patch for endgame viability, or creating new meshes to add as modifications for the gun in-game? I love this gun to death personally.
@Wanaming0 Why is his opinion invalid? Do you have opinions on movies or music? Are you a director or musician? Invalidating someones opinion because they don't create in said medium is laughable. An opinion is based on someone's likes or preferences, not their contributions. Re-evaluate your disposition fam.
@Wanaming0 very interesting mindset: one who has no time or technical skill to contribute mods to this community is a worthless member with worthless opinions. say when you gonna start your fourth reich broh ?
@AvatarKyoshi Ok next time you have an opinion on a movie or music it must be invalidated because you dont make movies or music making you a worthless member and your opinion worthless. That 4th grade level logic is moronic
most endorsed has little to do with quality, it has to do with how soon i was released after the game launched. you have to basically filter the first 2 years of any games mod lifecycle out if you want the best stuff.
So, let me get this straight. The guy can't make any criticism, polite or otherwise if he has not made any mods for the community. Fine, next time you see a movie you think is really bad, you'd better shut your mouth unless you've made at least one movie. Next time you feel like complaining about bad food at a restaurant, you'd better keep quiet unless you've worked as a restaurant chef at one yourself for any amount of time. I don't see you shitting on people who like your mod. What gives them the right to positively critique your work when they haven't made any mods themselves? Maybe you're the one who should re-evaluate your attitude to criticism because it seems to me like the fact that making the most endorsed mod for FO4 on here has really gotten to your head, 'fam'.
Instead of evaluating opinions on contribution i think it would make more sense to evaluate opinions based on IQ. I wonder how Wanaming would like that. At any case i agree with the OP, this mod is pure trash and the reasons behind that fact are of no concern to me personally. Best advice i have seen is to look for more recent mods instead of most endorsed all time.
To be very honest, the early and super outdated mods compared to these days standards, should actually have their own category or something. I totally understand the point of view how a new mod installer feels about this mod. I also hate it when i browse most endorsed, and i see these old "thingies". But, you must always look at the release date and make the conclusion it is abonded and old, so leave it be.
Because we all know that you must create to judge. If I s#*! on a plate and said it was a gourmet meal, do you not have a point to criticize because you aren't a professional chef? GTFO with that elitist BS
For those, who play with Horizon mod: "Not quite compatible, because you can't craft or find 7,62 ammo with nessesary ID". Horizon uses 7,62mm ID instead of 7,62 from vanilla. But it's compatible with 5,56 and 5 mm ammo.
