they could make using slings and holsters useful to your inventory by giving them innate +weapon speed modifiers too.

Something like the sling they use for the P90s in Stargate would be pretty cool.

The Combat Sling is a very good idea for the Carbine. Here is a link to a site with pictures of a 'real world' sling, used on an MP-5

http://www.mfiap.com/sling2.htm

The sling allows you to have the weapon available at your side normally, but in a place where you can immediately grab it and bring it to bear on your target. Some slings are designed to provide additional support for aiming or dealing with recoild. For this game, I would be happy even if it just existed as a graphic, with no combat modifications involved.

However, some things to think about -

Would this be something the user could add, or would it need to be added by the Weaponsmith?

If the sling added benefits, would we handle it programmatically like a powerup?

Could the sling graphic be added so that EVERYONE (not just the guy carrying the weapon) can see it in use?

Again, it would be a cool thing IMHO

That's all fine and well, JKRyan, but did it occur to you that SWG carbines are about half that length? Until stocks start actually showing, our carbines won't be anywhere near long enough to warrant a back sling.

I like the shoulder sling idea... ala the P-90's from SG1...

and along that line... how about Little Black Med Bags for Doctors?? *wishful thinking*
