REWORKED WEAPON AND AMMO PRICES
Weapon and ammunition prices have been adjusted to make progession more challenging and rewarding. This works in tandem with the unique ammo system.
FUTURE PLANS & IDEAS
- Overhaul mission rewards- Separate SR4 weapon models from their attachments
-
- Rework the in-game economy (property values, rewards)
- Introduce collectible-based unique rewards
- Adjust survival call mechanics to tie them into story progression
- Implement a limit adjuster to add new weapons without replacing existing ones
- Restore or develop a toggle system for dual-wielding
- Implement attachments as a separate system instead of tiered upgrades
NOTES
This mod is an ongoing project, and updates will be posted as progress is made. Stay tuned for future changes and improvements!
