The Worst Guns?

Post » Thu Aug 25, 2011 10:22 am

What do you think are the worst guns? This could be because there is another gun(s) that look a lot like it, dosn't look very cool, is too unrealistic, the sound of the gun, if it was dissapointing, ect.

I thought the K9000 Cyberdog Gun from Old World Blues had a few faults in it. I disliked how it barked and had the whole dog thing about it, if it didn't have that then I would most probably like it a lot more. Also I thought the default magazine size should have been bigger too.

I hated the Police Gun, from Dead Money, as it was so much like many revolvers features in New Vegas. If it changed from the basic silver colour scheme, and maybe had something more unique to it, it would be more significant.

I wished the 9 and 10mm SMG's were held, when 'iron sighted', more as if the character wanted to grip the gun. I think you should have grabbed the end of the gun for sturdiness.

Worst guns? Hmm...

If I could include energy pistols I'd say Laser and Plasma Pistol: they are hardly ever used by NPCs, making the repairs of the one or two you may find difficult.

That Gun maybe. It uses fairly heavy ammo (in terms of weight), deals frightningly little damage, is more or less inaccurate, holds only five round, weighs compared to more powerful guns quite a lot, and is supposed to crit more often: even those crits dont justify That Gun.

I would presume.... the 127mm Pistol & Sub-machine gun, just because the overall quality and doesn't look very cool.
Reply: FallenOut: K9000 was kind of a clumsy, annoying and didn't have much kick even with the .44 magnum round. I liked the Police Pistol but I really wanted mods for the Police Pistol like extended barrel etc.

My only wish... Full Auto 9mm or .45 Pistol. or an Unique Variant of the Hunting Rifle Fully modded with different look & colour scheme.

Come on... the silenced .22 pistol. There isn't really any question about it.

The 12.7 pistol is a beast and it looks a lot cooler than that gun. That gun is just fugly and its damage isn't even impressive despite the fact it's the only pistol that can use Armor Piercing rounds.

Varmint Rifle. Ratslayer is cool for how it looks and that it is a good sneak weapon but the normal version is just horrible in my opinion.

Brush gun. I can't seem to hit more than 1 in 3 shots with it whereas with any other gun I hit with every shot. :confused:

There really isn't any gun in New Vegas that's COMPLETELY unless, even the 22 can be effective as a holdout weapon if you don't have a high enough sneak skill to get anything else in, with a good critical build it actually does halfway decent damage even.

what?

my "Jake the Snake" cowboy primary weapon is the Brush Gun. I don't see why people have a problem with it. It's not a sniper Rifle, its a close to medium Range rifle. 45-70 is a big round that looses Velocity quickly..

I can agree with the DAM, but I just can't stand to look at it while it is firing. The animation is just sub-par for that. The fire rate doesn't help either, I think it needs to either be faster, or slower with a bolt action.

Both the .22's, Single Shotgun, BB Gun, Fat Man (http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=791 to pointlessness, uber rare ammo). The Laser Pistol and both Recharger Weapons svck pretty badly as well; Going Energy Weapons from the go is not fun.

I can understand people dissing guns, but Fatman?..why? the gun (mini nuke launcher to be exact) is probably the most powerful thing in the entire game, and it was design to clear out an entire pack of heavy hitting, high-hp goons, such as Deathclaws, super Mutants, and other higher level creatures, while you dont break a sweat. Its damage got an actual buff in one of the patches, with the Demolition Expert actually working on it, and it does nearly 2000 damage a pop. It was made for Explosive experts out there, as the Fatman and Mercy are the top of the game in the Explosive List. every other skill has their own King in the weapons list. when a pure explosive character puts his perks in the right place, the Fatman can clear an entire mountain in just one shot. I want to see a gun do that, one shot...no? then stop whining. the Fatman has its own unique flaws of course, but that doesn't make it useless.

eh, there really is no bad weapon. Every weapon has a role-playing purpose.

BB Gun is for that prankster who thinks its funny when people get so mad from getting shot by a BB Gun that....they want to kill him ! LOL. For Example.

The worst I'd say is the laser pistol. I would not consider the silenced 22. the worst since it actually has a purpose that very few other guns have. It is also the only non-DLC silenced holdout gun. The laser pistol is completely obsolete as soon as you leave Goodsprings. The gun that I use the least,but I don't consider the worst is the Fatman.

Laser pistol with maxed charged cells and Laser Commander is pretty damn powerful, you would be surprised.

Recharger pistol is good for a energy weapons character who doesn't want to waste ammo killing low level goons.
