How about a cross bow?

This will allow you to shoot arrows. It would also be able to shoot knifes as well. An optional feature would be poison tipped arrows and blades. That would inflict more damage. would cost 5 creits for shooter 1 for ammo and 1 for poison tips. Would inflickt 20 damage per shot and 30 with poison tips.

What do you see as the tactical advantage to a cross bow or how does it benefit a player to use the cross bow verses other weapons?

For one it is stealthy. Would be light weight and very quiet. Can also shoot arrows fast via minigun barrel setup or could be setup to use the traditional method of firing. which ever you desire. Is also a great choise of weapon for dark places since the is no flash from the firing of the weapon

What would the very light property affect? Move speed?

Another idea would be flaming arrows that ignite the player upon contact

There is alot of idea's with flame lately :roll:
Water good... Fire bad!
Poison would be better. Or alcohol :P . Then the player gets drunk :D

It has the advantage that half life already has models for the cross bow so it simplifies that part.

A possible down side is that since it is already in Half Life it has the feel of adding a Half Life weapon to CS.

one way to get arround that would be to change the model around some. i dont know what the one they have now is though so i couldnt really make any other suggestions.
