More Guns/Customizable Guns

Post » Sun Aug 07, 2011 12:34 am

I know Fallout is a Retro-Future game and I guess I'm ok with that, but couldn't we have a little fun with new, modern weapons? Like M16A4 but Automatic, Desert Eagle, M9 Pistol, Uzi, G3, MP5, MP5K, M1911, CZ75,Glock 20, Galil and M21. I would love to see these in Fallout 4 and maybe DLCs. But also, having the ability to customize the look of your weapon, like on NV, The M16A1 looked ugly with that Brown, so maybe adding a white or black Muzzle or just adding cool decals or designs, like camo and choose your colors.

This has come up many times in the past.

"Modern Vs Fallout Weapons"

It should not be "Modern Vs Fallout Weapons" but Real World Vs Fallout Weapons.

To me guns that were around before or during the 1950s are ok to be in Fallout and should be in Fallout. Guns just after the 1950s are still good because they would have been working on them during the 1950s.

IMO Fallout Tactics has a great mix of new and classic Fallout Weapons along with real world weapons that were around from the 1950 or just after, and down.

It does not seem to matter now. Weapons in the new Fallouts only look like Real World Weapons but are give names like "This Machine" or simply .45 automatic machine gun. I could be wrong but I think I remember J.E Sawyer saying that that way he does not have to worry about the weapon being 100% realistic. If he called it a thompsons submachine gun, people would want it to be just like a thompsons submachine gun in every way.
