GooberMan Posted August 7, 2002 These are just a few of my fave weapons. Vote for your fave or suggest another one. NOTE: I'd have liked to have put the World's Smallest Nuke from MDK on that list, but it's not an FPS, so it'll have to do with a mention here. 0 Share this post Link to post

IMJack Posted August 7, 2002 The Barnacle from Opposing Force. It's just too damn fun. 0 Share this post Link to post
GS-1719 Posted August 7, 2002 The Railgun easily. If the light sabre in JKII had better control, it may have stood a slight chance. 0 Share this post Link to post
zark Posted August 7, 2002 Flak Cannon rules all. Wraithverge is pretty neat too. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ichor Posted August 7, 2002 Powered up Firemace from Heretic - All those big, silver balls bouncing around, and when any one of them his an enemy (except a boss monster), it utterly destroys them, and usually sends them flying across the room. If you're standing on a teleporter when one of these happens to go through, it won't be pretty at all. There is only one way to survive being hit with one of these besides being invincible. If you have a Chaos Device, you will be warped to the start of the map, or if in deathmatch, a random spot, and you will lose half of your health. Thunderstorm (powered up Arc of Death) from the nearly complete first episode of Carnage Galore III for Hexen - Instead of a bolt of lightning that travels along the ground and ceiling, you fire the still concentrated ball of energy. When it hits, it explodes in an expanding ball of electricity, which causes terrible damage to anything it engulfs. Firewall from ROTT - This thing fires some kind of grenade. When it hits the ground, it causes a wall of flame to form and travel along the ground in the direction it's fired. Anything in its way will be roasted similar to the flame death of Heretic. However, after the fire stops, you see the charred skeleton standing there for a second, then fall to the ground in a pile of ash. If you aim it just right and you're fast enough, you can kill yourself with this. 0 Share this post Link to post
darknation Posted August 7, 2002 Shrinker from Duke Nukem. The Best Weapon Ever. 0 Share this post Link to post
Submerge Posted August 7, 2002 I have many likes. HL's Tau Cannon OP4's Shock Roach, Barnacle, and spore launcher Doom's BFG Q2's BFG and Grenade Launcher UT's GES BioRifle, Flak Cannon, Pulse Gun Blood's Tommy Gun and Flare Gun SS2's Crystal Shard and Worm Guns DN's Shrinker, Freezethrower, and Pipe Bombs Q2 Zaero's Sonic Cannon Heh, that's a lot 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted August 7, 2002 The Shotgun from Doom/Doom2, the Super Shotgun from Doom2 and Quake2, and the Railgun from multiple games. Oh yeah, and I also like the Ethereal Crossbow from Heretic, and there's nothing quite like the Hellstaff, especially when's it's powered up-that rain that comes pouring down from out of nowhere is extremely cool. ALL of Hexen's weapons rock-I like to punch the Ettins in the first level into oblivion. And the Bloodscourge, and the Timon's Axe, and the Wraithverge. All very cool. 0 Share this post Link to post

pritch Posted August 7, 2002 The shotgun from Doom, the heatseeker from ROTT, and for deathmatch nothing beats the tripbomb from Duke3d. Modern era: undecided. I'll let you know. 0 Share this post Link to post

læmænt Posted August 8, 2002 Shotgun from doom is the most satisfying. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted August 8, 2002 VileSlay said:tesla gun from rtcw. Uhh, mind telling me what's so great about the tesla gun in RtCW? I admit that the basic concept is cool, but that thing is far too weak to be a useful weapon. You run a great risk of getting shot several times whenever you electrocute Nazis with it because very often, they can still shoot back at you, it's completely useless against bosses and in the very last level before Heinrich it's suicide to try and use it against any Nazi because they're so tough and fast in that level. It's great against zombs, but unfortunately, you don't encounter that many zombies after you get the tesla (except against Heinrich if you really want to waste time squashing lots of zombies). 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted August 8, 2002 A few more fun weapons from ROTT are: Drunk Missile - The rockets (about five at a time) they shoot may be heat seeking, but it doesn't look like it from the way they all wander all over the place. Dog Mode - More of a powerup than a weapon, but it counts because you get to run around as an invincible dog, biting people. I would put the Excalibat here, but it takes way too long to power up. You have to hold the fire button down for at least five seconds or so before it fires, and if you let go of it, you have to charge it up all over again. Needless to say, it gets annoying after a while. However, you can swing it around if you want to knock people around. Dark Staff - It looks like a big rock taped to the end of a stick, but when it fires, it's guaranteeed to gib anyone it hits, except the boss monsters and machines. Turn on the Ludicrous Gibs cheat code and everyone you shoot will erupt in body parts that seem to greatly exceed the body mass from which it came (one soldier would produce enough gibs for five soldiers, heheh). Also, the projectiles they shoot go through the target and continues on its merry way. If anyone happens to be in the way, he goes boom too. 0 Share this post Link to post

IMJack Posted August 8, 2002 The super laser from No One Lives Forever: One hit kills + bad 60's special FX + no body = good times. The Chemgun from Renegade. Just the thought of hosing somebody down with pure Tiberium is worth it, even if they do mutate into one of those Tiberium critters. 0 Share this post Link to post
