Quad MG42 Turret

I dont have a highpoly modelled MG42. But I had a idea that would bring a bit more excitement to the game..
I dont know if anyone ever watched sons of guns but they mount 4 mg42s.

To me that sounds like a whole bunch of kickin ass.

I wanted to put a metal shield infront of it. And add two large spot lights. I dont know it was just a rough concept model idea. Just wanted to hear your Thoughts I could revise the idea or concept or accept concept from others in the community

Cool, looking forward to it!

I will draw a couple of concepts xD

Cool concept, we can use that! We'll be modeling MG42 anyway so we can just bolt the same model into that. They might use one of those to guard the main entrance to the base, for example.

Ya, Lots of games have the fish in the barrel.
Its a FPS Element to game-play. Shouldn't be ignored in any FPS Game..

Lots of war Movies have that and it works' its entertainment at its finnest. Name any war movie or show. You got them machine guns planted ready to spit bullets at the enemy.

I was talking about a scenario that occurs in most shooters since "Medal Of Honor" - the player comes across an MG turret which he happily mounts. Then, all of a sudden, a sheer army of enemies come running, of course strictly in a narrow area that the MG can easily cover. The player can shoot them like fish in a barrel ^_^

But, as was said, this is very unlikely to happen in ISOH ;P

Anyway, I totally agree it would be interesting to show some experimental weapons based on what was possible at the time!

"Fish in the barrel" Im not familiar with this term could you elaborate?

Im not sure if ISOH is a shooter or not.The Model could also be used as a display model.
Showing the fierce ambition and Innovation of the Germans. After-all they were the most technologically advanced country in all of Europe.

Even at the expense for Hitler to research the training of specific crews for V2 Rocket (Vengeance Weapon 2) Capability. So I was thinking about playing with the idea that Somewhere in the Arctic Research - That they are working on a whole bunch of things, not limited to just a UFO.

Hehhe I didn't know there was a show that could be described as "Pimp My Ride With Guns"... and it's even on the discovery channel ;D

Anyways, seems this turret would be a pretty devastating weapon, so it probably'd have to be some kind of boss enemy... or the other way round, use it for some "fish in the barrel" sequence which seems to be mandatory for every ego shooter. No wait, ISOH isn't a shooter, so scrap that ;P
