Weapons, Mods and Ammo Mega-Thread #3

Also, in the new dev diary video you can see what looks to be a BFR http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biggest,_Finest_Revolver, a very ornate BFR at that. (Substitute what you will for "Finest" :B)

This would be our elusive .45-70 weapon.

And shortly before the BFR, around 1:05 in http://bethblog.com/index.php/2010/09/23/fallout-new-vegas-video-developer-diary-2/, there's "a little 9mm sub-machine gun that looks kinda like a WWII Grease Gun only compacted." Another speculation spree likely to be laid to rest.

We knew there was going to be a Grease Gun for a while, A guy who had gone to Gamescon was saying that the 9mm SMG was designed after the M3. Also our very own Intact Garden Gnome confirmed it when he was at PAX.

In the new Dev Diary I saw the BFR (And the Unique version called the Ranger Sequoia, which is the ornately decorated one), Pump-Action Shotgun, Recharger Rifle (Energy Weapon) and I've got to say all the guns sound great. The game just keeps getting better and better. :tops:

Well it looks like the Wattz 2000 is now uncomfirmed( believed to be the recharger rifle). Still hope it makes it as a low or mid tier laser rifle, because it is a civilian model. Also the AEP7 laser pistol is back. Does anyone know if it is the laser pistol you can steal in start of the game or is the wattz 1000 in?

Is that pump shotgun a remington 870?

By the way, while the Ranger Sequoia/Hunting Revolver are BFR-ish, they are double-action revolvers. It would be more appropriate for it to be single-action, but it is a step up from the .44 Magnum Revolver, and I felt that the manual single-shell reloading would feel like a step down.

And yes, they fire .45-70 Gov't.

I think the Devs basic said it was "a generic pump action design"

saddens me, as I said earlier in the thread I would have hoped for something more unique looking, like the http://www.pegatiros.com/reportajes/armas_infanteria/winchester1897/Winche1.jpg

oh well.

All the same that .45-70 dropped enemies like a sack of potatoes, it killed a Deathclaw in two shots. (Can't wait to get my hands upon that gun.) :tops:

Closer in spection of the dev diary shows a legion soldier using a auto axe like weopon at 0:57 getting shot by the grenade MG. Also is that scoped revolver a fully moded .357, it has a speed loader too( I saw a video of that gun reloading one bullet at a time in the video with the .22 smg). Also a little off topic but a small albino radscorpion is running across the road at the end of the video.

Reloaded with speedloaders? Cool. Who's the man? You're the man.

Oh, and one little tiny thing. I would still like a little clarification on the "only one caliber that has one gun" statement. You counted base weapon types, right? Unique versions of a base weapon didn't count, right? Please say there's a rifle for this nice rifle round?

It should, It killed enough buffalo in one shot. What's the damage of a sneak shot critical with maxed skills and perks gonna be? Holy crap.

The plasma rifle in the video looks great! Mr. sawyer, what mods are on that rifle or is that a multiplas rifle?

PS Does scoping a weopon reduce spread, increase VATS accuracy or is just to see farther?

actually I do want to be stuck in that trap, since in my mind

current day "plastic" guns= toy guns


not like the proper steel and wood guns of the past, now that was guns.

Modern day guns aren't plastic mostly, the receiver is usually still metal. They'll still shoot you just as dead as a wood stocked gun, and they're lighter too.
Wood guns are nice an' all, but don't diss modern gun design.

Very, very nice. Is that Ranger Sequoia unique or will there be lots of them adorned like that?

It went by so fast and I didn't pause it. I think it was the Big 'Un, not the .357. Especially if it used a speedloader. Mr. Sawyer just said the Big "Un didn't load through the gate like IRL. It would be one helluva mod to make a SAA use a speedloader. The cylinder doesn't pivot out of the frame. Well, on the original one at least.

In 1939, somewhere someone was [censored]ing about the new fancy semi-auto rifle we had and thought that real rifles had levers. Change is hard.

Its likely the non-unique version of the BFR it seems. :tops:

It didn't look as big as the BFR and it looked sort of chromish, IIRC, but that could be the Sequoia's default skin. I'll go watch it again. It could be the .44 you know.

The gun in the end looked plain to me( unengraved and decorated), but I could be wrong. Is the .357 modeled after the SAA, the big 'Un is modeled after the BFR right?

I bet that the .44 is the one from Fallout 3, unscoped. I think they have not shown it because we are already familier with it.

I'd prefer a more [src="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colt_Anaconda"]Colt Anaconda[/url] look to the .44 Magnum, It just looks like it has much more "teeth" than the old [src="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_&_Wesson_Model_29"]Smith & Wesson Model 29.[/url] :tops:

If what you're looking at has an unfluted cylinder, it's the Hunting Revolver, the "standard" version of the Ranger Sequoia.

So the Ranger Sequoia is the unique variant of the hunting revolver?

Hmm, me too. And with a muzzle break it actually does look like it has actual teeth! But we'll probably be seeing the old version from FO3, I mean why waste the model right? Plus while the Anaconda looks meaner the Model 29 looks more retro, methinks.

If what you're looking at has an unfluted cylinder, it's the Hunting Revolver, the "standard" version of the Ranger Sequoia.

Sawyer lays down the law again!
Now, this has implications Sawyer. If the Ranger Sequoia is a unique weapon, then that means it's not used by Elite RangerS, but rather by one Elite Ranger in particular.

Unless of course there's a whole bunch of elite rangers, each of them having a fancy looking Hunting Revolver.
You can't fool us with your lies of omission! We're on to you! :celebration:
