DooMBoy Posted August 6, 2002 I think the rifle would have been better for a starting weapon instead of that crappy little pistol. 0 Share this post Link to post
Spike Posted August 6, 2002 I'd agree on the rifle. Secondary fire is used as a melée attack, allowing you to gut zombies and imps up close, tho it wouldn't do more than scratch a Baron. 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted August 6, 2002 Yeah, it would also be more plausible. It seems OK enough that the marine is armed with a standard issue rifle when all the others get to play around with chainguns and plasma weapons, but having a top trained elite soldier run around with only a sidearm seems a bit weird. 0 Share this post Link to post
Disorder Posted August 6, 2002 I think they didn't remove all of these weapons for nothing.. IMHO all those weapons suck.. 0 Share this post Link to post
Woolie Wool Posted August 6, 2002 I disagree. I like the beta weapons. 0 Share this post Link to post

Trooper zombies seem to be armed with single-shot rifles. id could have at least given them sidearms instead. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lizardcommando Posted August 7, 2002 I just like the Infantry Rifle. It looked cooler than the pistol. The other weapons seem a bit ridiculous to me. Isn't the unmaker basically like the BFG? I can't really remember what that death claw does but obviously the BFG 2407 thingy is supposed to be like the current BFG, except the big blast shoots out smaller shots. 0 Share this post Link to post

Like Quake 3's Christmas BFG 0 Share this post Link to post
Livo Posted August 7, 2002 What does the Rifle look like? I don't see any pictures of it in the Doom Bible .pdf file. 0 Share this post Link to post
