SAW
I don't really think that it is an M249 SAW. It doesn't have the magazine well for STANAG mags under the ammo belt. Can be seen in the trailer here. - bozitojugg3rn4ut 04:56, 10 July 2011 (CDT)
- Black's SAW didn't either, same developer. Granted, in Black the belt box is mounted over where the STANAG adaptor would be, but I'd say for now it's a SAW missing the adaptor. Also, is that a TDI Vector at 0:29 and a handheld DShK or something similar at 0:49? Evil Tim 05:08, 10 July 2011 (CDT)
- Just checked: Far Cry 2's doesn't have one either. Seems to be a pretty common omission, probably from developers modelling the gun based on a side-on photograph where it isn't clear there's anything there. Far Cry 1's, it looks like they knew there was something there but they weren't sure what, from consulting a video (I don't have any reloading shots of FC1) there's a sort of triangular thingy there.

- Isn't a SAW without a carry handle and STANAG magazine well an M249 SPW? Also it has shorter barrel than the SAW and a not really perfect retractable buttstock.

- Yeah, that does look more like the SPW version. With Black it's just an M249 they've done stuff too (for a start it has no stock at all), and FC2's has a full stock and carry handle, just no STANAG well.Evil Tim 15:11, 13 July 2011 (CDT)
- So, Tim, what will be the final verdict? The image from facebook is definitely the in-game "SAW". In the trailer, at 1:05 the player sprints with the gun and the retractable stock + short barrel can be seen. Yeah, probably they will call it "SAW" or "M249" or something like that, but we don't care about that when we ID guns, right? So I say we should change it to SPW. - bozitojugg3rn4ut 03:50, 14 July 2011 (CDT)
- Yeah, I'm all for calling that an SPW, since it clearly is one. Evil Tim 03:54, 14 July 2011 (CDT)

You sure? That ring of dashes around the outside of the circle looks like a bullets-in-magazine display. Evil Tim 05:32, 10 July 2011 (CDT)
- I saw the trailer a few months ago so maybe I won't remember correctly, but I think those indicate the "experience", or "level" or "style points" or something like that. - bozitojugg3rn4ut 05:50, 10 July 2011 (CDT)
