Lonesome Road weapons : Fallout: New Vegas

» Thu Sep 15, 2011 8:14 pm

So I am completely unaware if something about this has been made for the new weapons seen in the trailer.

For those who haven't seen it http://www.bethblog.com/index.php/2011/09/14/watch-the-lonesome-road-trailer/

Anyways there are several new weapons seen and the ones we knew about, but the missle launcher seems to be able to shoot more than 1 missle before reloading, that seems useful.

Here is what else I noticed

-possibly a new riot shotgun
-the electricgun shoots electricity quite rapidly
-some kind of spear
-also I am able to hear minigun noises occasioannly.

EDIT: I don't know if this is for everyone, but I am unable to hear the audio for whichever one I watch...

well we have anew shoulder mounted laser weapon

It seems to fire a laser and a missile at the same time, while also ejecting a 40mm shell after being fired, and it's semi-automatic. At 0:47 you can see the missile being fired for a split second.
Also, there is a new short sword of some type, possibly a unique machete, and there are a couple of new grenade rifles.

My melee weapons character will really love the Flag Pole

...forgot about that Laser pistol. It looks really amazing. Almost seems like a laser pistol that shoots mininukes.

The beam looks similar to the beam fired by Pew Pew, although I don't know about the mininuke theory though, they might just be shooting at something explosive in the trailer.

That makes sense, I'll look at it again and see if there is anything there.

EDIT: Well at the end of the beam it seems that something is glowing and getting brighter, then explodes.

Maybe it overloads electronics or something of that nature and makes them explode? Or maybe it is causing something specific to the divide to explode, kind of like how the sonic emitter disabled force fields in OWB. :shrug:

I can't wait to use these weapons though, :drool: frankly every one of the new weapons in LR looks better than most every weapon from all of the previous DLCs put together.

Ok here's a list of weapons I have noticed so far:

Unique Riot Shotgun
Unique Grenade Rifle
Some Electric Gun
The Divide's Signature Weapon
Unique combat knife (sticking in that robot @0:14)
A new Melee Weapon
An energy pistol (seen @0:49)
Ulysses is carrying what looks like a 12.7mm SMG @1:10
0:55 might be another energy/explosive weapon

Obviously I might have missed a few things, so please tell me if you notice any other weapons!

Here is my list that I compiled while watching the trailer.

About Riot Shotgun, I don't any different. It looks like a normal riot shotgun.

I noticed these weapons on trailer.

-Scorpion rifle http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Scorpion_rifle
-Spider rifle http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Spider_rifle
-A new knife(similar combat knife)
-Electronic Gun with a battery pack
-The Divide's signature weapon(Missile launcher, Automatic gun, and Grenade Launcher).
-Eagle Flag Pole
-A new unique Laser Pistol(almost like Archimedes II)

Nice work :thumbsup:

I think that covers just about everything, so now that only leaves the speculation over what these new weapons do......

I wouldn't trust the wiki at this point, I mean that is all just speculation, and tbh I doubt that these weapons are ever going to appear, it would be cool, but I just don't see it happening.

Im gonna love the arc-welderish weapon and the spider rifle.

I will be surprised if the engine can actually have these weapons! :turtle:

All it has to do is run a script on the projectile. Normall when you fire an explosive, it places an explosion at the point of impact, but it can place ANYTHING YOU WANT at the point of impact.

I would really like to see a blunt - two handed melee weapon.

It should at least do damage.

I'm hoping that there will be some conventional weaponry - like the apparent new shotgun. They might not bother in that department because of GRA, but I can hope.

» Thu Sep 15, 2011 10:59 pm

Just of note, Christin's Sniper Rifle was shown in the trailer for OWB, even though it looked like the original. The Riot Gun might be unique (Daniel hopes that it's modified to fire fully automatic).

again like I said before in the trailer topic, the unique Divide's weapon doesnt shoot out 'lasers' as in fact, it was an enemy who was shooting at you, while your getting torched. Red Rockets Glare is indeed an Explosive weapon, that appears to be firing high-velocity 40mm grenades, so expect huge damage, and big splash AoE.

My guess is that it's the weapon that can detonate the warheads, as it looks kinda familiar to the achievement picture.

That would be quite odd as when it was used the explosion was close to the player. If it did indeed detonate the warheads, your character would be disintegrated from the warheads massive explosive force and range. It may be the weapon that is capable of detonation, but form what we have seen the thing that exploded couldn't possibly have been a warhead.

Edit: Looking at the Achievement, it indeed does look like said gun. I still stand by what I said though, and thus I hope that what was seen in the trailer is a secondary function.

My theory as well, I am spending an hour a day getting ready for lonesome road.

Oh I agree, but I would also like to point out that in said game you could detonate a Megaton bomb from several miles away and you would only feel the shockwave. :shrug: I am not denouncing your theory or saying it is bad, as I can see where you are coming from.

I'm just saying that judging from the FO3 Megaton explosion, I can see it being the one used to detonate the warheads.

My theory as well, I am spending an hour a day getting ready for lonesome road.

I see!

I've been spending a fair amount myself. ^_^ Though lately I've been playing Dead Island more often than not.
