[UT2004] BALLISTIC WEAPONS v2.5

Ballistic Weapons is a unique mod for Unreal Tournament 2004, designed to replace most elements of the original game, especially the weapon system, to provide players with a UT2004 experience they won't soon forget! BW strikes a very enjoyable balance, taking many elements from realistic style weapons, but never turning the game into some kind of frustrating combat simulator! Our intention was to deliver something for everyone, and as such, the mod is highly scalable and customizable with settings for everything from accuracy and damage to weapon loadouts and new crosshairs. Different players will be capable of doing well with the style of weapon that suits them, not simply the most powerful gun in the arena. We believe that BW offers something to both arena maniacs as well as the more tactical players.
If you are unfortunate enough to believe that BW is only for people seeking a realism mod like CS, then you are definitely missing out big time!

Another very strong point of Ballistic Weapons, is that all the content has been developed to a very high technical standard, featuring incredible looking weapons, totally new professional sound effects, and some very impressive animations, that actually involve the hands on screen. We have certainly tried to develop all our content to a standard and quality of professional developers, and we believe that we have achieved that goal.

In addition, all items, such as health, armor, ammo, etc have been replaced in keeping with the new Ballistic gameplay.

Ballistic Weapons has evolved quite a bit, into what it is today. It now hosts 31 weapons, an incredible arena blood and gore system, countless features, many gameplay enhancements, and a ton of customizable options and settings. This mod does alot more than add a few guns, it can dramatically change UT2004 and turn it into a much more fun experience!

Fling enemies into the sky and shove them around with the Lightning Gun, annihilate opponents with 3600 RPM of pure Minigun death, scorch with the flamer thrower, destroy with rockets, grenades and energy weapons, and mow down the opposition with Machineguns, shotguns and assault rifles! Exploding flamethrower tanks, mountable weapons, heat-seeking rockets, dual-wieldable handguns, and stylish weaponry, are just some of the many things that BW offers to players.

The design, style, and theme for the elements of this mod are taken from RuneStorm's "Project Archon"© universe, a setting where sinister alien races and vast terran armies battle for survival across a diversity of unchartered planets, war torn worlds and battle ravaged colonies.
All the content of this mod is 100% original with new meshes, textures and sounds for all weapons and pickups, done by RuneStorm.
A completely new weapon system, dramatically improves the aiming, and damage system, and adds reloading, realistic ammo handling, and many other features, allowing for a much more reallistic gameplay environment.

This manual is a guide to understanding and discovering the numerous features and enhancements that Ballistic Weapons brings.

We hope you have as much fun playing this mod, as we did making it, and may BW bring you many hours of fun filled fragging!
