Yeah, nevermind the fact that the first two Fallouts had most of the guns the 'CoD fans' want in the game. Yeah, let's just skip over that entirely to troll everyone. I'm not giving up my M1 Garand, AK47 and M2 Browning. They were in the isometric Fallouts, they're staying in my 3D ones. They're just as lore friendly as a nuclear powered bus. Oh, and let's not even meniton the M2 Browning, Thompson SMG, B.A.R, KAR-98, Mauser, etc etc being designed and built BEFORE divergence even occured, leaving those weapons to be perfectly lore friendly as well. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Chauchat It didn't work in the Fallout universe, either. Technically speaking the AK47 was designed before divergence occured, not that it matters as the AK obviously existed as it was in one game and the CAR is technically an AK-112.

Oh, and just for the lulz: The fallout timeline didn't diverge that suddenly. It's not like it just e-braked onto a side-street and speed off into the sunset. No, it slowly merged off the modern timeline.

tl;dr: Not everyone wanting familiar weapons does so because they were in COD.

On a somewhat unrelated note I think I want a Chauchet to nail to my Tenpenny wall.

i would enjoy a weapon instead of shooting railroad spikes but the rail parts them selves would be like a rail gun x 20. :hubbahubba:

I don′t care what kind of weapons Fallout gives me, as long as I am able to put decent holes in smartasses with ′em. :nod:

Why can't anyone come with an idea for a weapon that doesn't SOMEHOW relate to Call of Duty? We need to broaden our horizons beyond, "Oh mah gawd can we haz acr, deagle, and bairett!?!?!?!"

We need some new ideas for guns. The Fallout universe diverged, if that's a reminder to any of you. They should have DIFFERENT guns and designs. No more "What guns do you want in New Vegas?" Because it's more like asking, "What guns from Call of Duty do you want to see?"

How about this: What NEW ideas for weapons would you want to see in Fallout: New Vegas?


I already asked for a Giant dragonfly named Paul, that spits venom all over anyone stupid enough to piss me off....but sadly my idea was rejected. :shrug:

Although I would like to see a return of the rail gun with the ability to actually pin people to objects. I really thought you could do that in FO3, and after much experimentation and dead NPC's I was dissapointed.

The only thing you could do was stake someone's foot to the ground, and they'd spend a few seconds tugging at their leg and be free again. I had more fun trying to draw things on walls with the railroad spikes.

Ahhhh... COD. A guns primer for the experience impaired. A good game. And sparker of so many rants it's amusing.
As raised by many others, it's weapons are real world based,.. SOME of Fallouts are real world based.
So on that note-
LeMat pistol. Large caliber revolver with a 16ga tucked under the barrel. (make it 45 and 20 and it fits NV. Now, how to set the triggers?)
MAC-10. Small box like submachine gun that sprays (see: lead hose) .45 slugs.
Calico 960. 9mm submachine gun with a 100 (yes one hundred) round helical magazine.
Steyr AUG. A gun for all occasions, just change the barrel. 13", 16", 20" and for desert a 24" light machine weight barrels.
AA-12. 12ga, box or belt fed, select fire happiness.
-
a net gun.
an EMP gun to lock up power armor
an energy based sniper weapon (maybe a really dark purple plasma bolt?)
-
I STILL want a crossbow. Why limit ourselves to guns here?

To be fair, all of those weapons you mention were only in Fallout: Tactics, which is of semi-dubious canonicity. Also, the FO3 Chinese AR is more likely the Norinco Type 56 with its wooden furniture rotting away.

All I mentioned was WW1 and WW2 weapons, the Semi-Auto Rifles, Bolt-Action Rifles, Sub-machine Guns, and the developments in the field of Light Machine Guns that eventually resulted in the birth of the world's first Assault Rifle the STG-44 made at the hands of Nazi Germany.

Great weapons like that deserve a spot in a wonderful game like Fallout I know I wouldn't mind trekking through the Mojave with an MP-40 or Kar-98 rifle.

Oh People can't like guns from COD? I personally like the FA-MAS (a gun in COD and in the first MGS) but its not appearing. It's just the fact people like these guns and are exposed to those more than more obscure stuff. They are already adding the original weapons in the game anyway. I didn't even know what an American-180 sub-machine gun was until i saw the preview and some links. Don't get your panties in a bunch over peoples opinions of what they want.


He's not getting his panties in a bundle, he'd just like to see some diversity of ideas. Man, people get defensive.

okej wtf man.

1. this isent a fantasy like oblivion where you can use spells and stuff for new items.
2. they are not taking them from COD. you should be mad at them for taking the weapons from other games and the REAL WORLD that you may not even heard of.
3. STOP COMPLAINING!
4. whats wrong whit the Barret? its like the most awesomest sniper ever! all games need it.

Ohoh and one more thing . Call of duty may have taken things from fallout^^ because fallout had Ak47 like in the 90's^^

Know what I wanna see?

A Fully-Automatic Shotgun.

Specifically, the Pancor Jackhammer. Yeah, it was developed in 1987, but it never entered production. The only problem I can see is that it's design may be a bit too "futuristic" for the Fallout Series (when I say that, I mean Futuristic as how we envision it, not how the 1950's envisioned it.)

Personally, I'd like to see an SKS in the game. It's as lore friendly as the Chinese Assault Rifle. I have one in real life, and I'd love to run around in the game with one. Plus with the bayonet, it could be used as a melee weapon. That's what this game needs!!! Bayonets!

P.S. I know I'm just wishful thinking about the bayonets.

Technically, the Mauser pistol was in FO3 as well. The Chinese Pistol in FO3 is really a Mauser C96.
As others have mentioned, the Desert Eagle, the Thompson, the B.A.R., the Pancor, the CAWS, and many others are real live guns that have appeared in Fallout games even before COD was ever developed.

The Desert Eagle and some Barrett were in Fallout before the CoD franchise ever left WWII, so it's not unoriginal at all. The only thing that deserves to disappear forever is the stupid ACR. I hate that weapon with a passion.
