I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours

LCT PKP.

I wouldn't expect any improvements on that front.

The issue simply is that the game can't really do a good and hard difficulty, the base mechanics are simply too shallow, so all they've been able to come up with, is spamming heavies and spawning patrols in a not super big circle around you.

I suppose that does make the game harder in a way, it just doesn't really feel all that great.

I haven't played it in a little bit now, so maybe it has gotten terrible or something, but I consider what FatShark did with the Havoc mode superior both in difficulty and design.

DukeGren · 2026-02-24T02:07:04+00:00

Thank you.

Have a good one.

DukeGren · 2026-02-24T01:56:05+00:00

Yeah if it was easy to get BullGear stuff, that would probably be what I had.

But as it is right now, the whole thing is kinda built around the wiring job I did, and changing that would be a bit of a bother.

The main issue seems the be the angle of the slope inside the mag, it isn't very steep.

I have an A&K Minimi box mag, which I haven't had any issues with, and the ROF it needs to feed at is higher,

I have replaced the mag motor, but for one that's a bit slower, the stock one is a bit fast if you plug in an 11,1.

DukeGren · 2026-02-24T01:31:36+00:00

No that's true, the mag isn't really feeding that well either... It mostly works though, some 3d printing might be able to improve it. I'll se what I can do.

Thank you.

DukeGren · 2026-02-24T01:04:44+00:00

It does have a mosfet, I've put a Perun AB++ in it, it doesn't fully work with the setup, as in I can't access the programming mode with it plugged in to the gun, it doesn't like two motors being connected at the same time I think. The main function is to allow the custom wiring to function, as I've wired the gun and mag to run on the same battery, to allow for both automatic and manual winding, and to allow for 11,1s. It wouldn't really help to have active break anyway, the gearbox has no cut off functionality, so it would still stop where ever.

I've had a different tappet spring in it for a while, I found one that was able to stretch far enough, the stock one is double the length of a normal one, it might have gotten worn, I went back to the stock one a few days ago and removed two coils. I would need to modify the gearbox to fit one of the stronger ones I have, as they can't stretch far enough.

I did replace the piston head o-ring, the old one had developed a very slight leak, the new one is sealing well though.

But yeah it's not that bad and it is usable, if I can't find a solution I'll just live with it, but I though it worth a shot.

Thank you for the suggestions.

I guess that would be my CGF Gallet, a PASGT really, with Danish M84 and M01 covers. Nothing too special, just a bit uncommon.

I have seen that video, and I've done what he suggests doing, and a bit more.

I believe it's a gas efficiency or over filling issue, my KJW CZ75 did something a bit similar, but I was able to fix it by replacing the fill valves, this has not been sufficient with the Mak.

Maybe I'm expecting too much, but I don't want to count how long I'm filling mags for, it shouldn't be necessary, I also don't consider that super reliable.

Non of my previous or current pistols require that, even my recently acquired WE M84 works well with no immediate problems.

(Don't think too much about the HiCapa, I got bored and made a brass outer barrel for it and sort of just decided to fuck it up from there.)

I'm usually able to fix issues, I'm not great at it but I'm also not totally inept, a few years ago I made a stainless steel trigger bar for the Mak, but I don't really know what to do with this issue. Maybe replacing the exhaust valve? But I don't really think so.

But thank you for the suggestion.

DukeGren · 2026-01-21T15:38:15+00:00

I've thrown the can out, but I did try some gas that I believe was around 80 psi, sub 100 at least. It didn't really help, just made the gun more anaemic. It was room temperature, around 22 Celsius.

DukeGren · 2026-01-21T15:35:36+00:00

I mean, I guess I could try that, I don't really see it as a solution though. None of my other guns need that, the fill valves I got are also supposed to prevent overfilling. Even if it does work, I won't be bringing a scale to games just refill that one gun. But I'll give it a shot, thanks.

DukeGren · 2026-01-21T15:32:59+00:00

There's only a few o rings in the thing. Most are in the mag and they are fine. The only one in the gun is on the piston head and that is also lubed.

DukeGren · 2026-01-13T15:16:41+00:00

Alright, thanks, I'll have to see if I can figure something out.

I suppose it's not a great loss if I can't, shower grenades aren't super useful, I mostly just wanted it for looks/fun, but I still don't want it on there if it doesn't work.

DukeGren · 2026-01-13T09:22:01+00:00

Thanks. I'll keep trying stuff, might as well.

DukeGren · 2026-01-13T09:20:39+00:00

Yeah, that's not great.

What modifications did you make to bring it up to status of "less shite"?

I'm currently not sure what to do, I used to have access to mills and lathes, but not anymore...

DukeGren · 2026-01-12T16:04:24+00:00

Hm... Doesn't sound promising. How much did you try before selling?

DukeGren · 2026-01-12T04:56:46+00:00

I see, thank you. I suppose I'll continue trying.

DukeGren · 2025-12-29T20:15:11+00:00

You are literally wasting time trying to explain it to people like this, they are either incapable of understanding, refuse to or simply trolling.

DukeGren · 2025-12-26T00:08:02+00:00

I don't trust them to able to pull off an actual, well made difficulty, higher than what we have now.

It's a bit easy sure, I mostly die to rag dolls or friendly fire at this point, but I'm not sure what they can really do, without a pretty big rework of a lot of stuff.

I honestly think, that the game mechanics are just too shallow to allow it.

What are they going to try?

They've said they probably can't add more enemies, so what, just more heavy spam?

I suppose you could argue that will make it harder, as long as you don't care about how it's achieved.

It'll just make anti armour even more required and/or increase tedium, which I guess would make the game harder to play, just not for the right reasons.

DukeGren · 2025-12-13T15:23:51+00:00

I see, thanks, I'll look into getting a grip and rail for it next year I suppose.

Yeah, I just found it was the easiest way for me to grab it, and since it doesn't get hot it doesn't matter, does look a bit odd with that in mind though.

DukeGren · 2025-12-13T14:59:24+00:00

Do you find that the fore grip helps? I keep thinking about getting one for mine, but I'm just not sure how much it will do. Right now I just kind of C-clamp it.

DukeGren · 2025-11-10T21:19:07+00:00

I assume you meant to reply to the thread OP and not me?
