The Dragunov is a type of cut Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle featured in the game files of Dead Island: Riptide. It's unknown exactly how they intended you to acquire this rifle, or why it's a named, real world firearm, but in any case the weapon was cut at some point in development, only present in the game files and requiring modding the game to acquire it.

Overview[]

Due to the weapon being a cut weapon in the game files, it has remarkably poor stats, especially for a firearm in Riptide, which notably buffed firearms. The Dragunov deals pitiful damage at just 37 damage a shot, making its high accuracy and moderate rate of fire moot when it requires many magazines to kill an Infected. The incredibly low damage means that killing anything is extremely difficult, even when getting continuous headshots.

Notes[]

  • The weapon will spawn in without the name being displayed anywhere, and no matter what rarity you give it to yourself in, it will not display it. I.e. if you give it to yourself in orange 'legendary' rarity, this will not display.
  • The weapon uses a unique ammo type - the Sniper Ammo, which is something not existing in the game, as the final game decided to just use Rifle Ammo for sniper rifles.
  • When being held in the character's hands, the weapon floats above them.
