What is so hard about getting guns correct in CS?

The main reason why the guns aren't realistic in the description is because it causes licensing problems, it can cost between 30 and 50 thousand bucks for a Heckler & Koch gun licensing. and for a game thats a avilable for free, but at one point was sold for money, thier required by law to pay the gun companys money. its different for free mods, cause thier not profitting off of the guns.

Actually, according to Jane's Guns Recognition Guide, the IMI Galil is produced in 7.62 x 51mm, which is also known as .308 Winchester. It's just "not as popular" as the 5.56mm version.

AH HA! :thumbs:

Because it's just a game, and creative license is allowable for the sake of the game. :cat:

I know there are some .308 versions but they're very rare, and they still only have 20 rd magazines!!! ;) So even though they do exist they STILL got it wrong.
 
does the improper stats and appearance of weapons truly affect gameplay? not really? i'm sure some custom models can piss people off.

As for realism,
Be like the real thing.
When you die in the game, The computer and monitor will explode killing anyone caught directly in front of the monitor.
When you are shot at. The computer will sprout arms and using nails of different widths will forcefully stab you in that particular area.

listen, Realism to the extreme sucks. I'm alright with weapon jams and blackened out spectator modes. But constantly complaining that "Its not realistic because such and such isn'm implimented, then thats just a lil tad overboard" .

Listen. You want a realisitc game with CORRECT gun stats and models. Play Americas Army, Its free and can be downloaded at their site.
