Weapons, Mods and Ammo Mega-Thread #11

Going that fast even dude, you aren't accounting for the little weight it has. If it hit anything metal it's gonna stop. No inertia. And if it went into a person it would still just make a tiny .177 cal hole. And would be extremely innaccurate.

Oh, you want to account for inertia? Lets look at the TKO numbers then. Add the three, carry 4. divide by pi........

158gr .357 TKO of 10 at the muzzle (1240fps)
7gr Pellet TKO of, ugh 0 says the calculator. must be an error. error. error. error. error.

Edit: Just did manual calcs and got .97 TKO. Just enough to knock a fly on it's ass.

Why are we still talking about the BB gun? If you want something low-powered and effective use the .22.

Can't wait, wish I could go get it tonight, but I have a field trip then rehab, so I'll be playing at about... 4:30 PM.

I wish Josh'd left in the .22 rifle. I hope he replaced it with another, but I doubt he did. I was soooo looking forward to plinking around the wastes. Just me and Ol' Plinker, shootin' silenced rounds from far away, wreaking havok. I was gonna do a whole .22 playthrough and everything. :sadvaultboy:

Yeah. I forgot you were AWOL for a while. He changed the Varmint Rifle from .22 to 5.56mm based on early fan feedback from the expos. That leaves only the .22 Pistol and the .22 SMG chambering that round AFAIK. Oh, well.......

At least make a token attempt to say something on topic guys. Otherwise it's just spam. While I like Spam, especially grilled with cheddar, I much prefer to talk about the weapons.What do you guys think of all the newly revealed weapons? The Tommygun/laser rifle maybe?

So, is it still considered a weak rifle?

Also, I just came up with my second playthrough character and his loadout
He is going to be a "future" style gangster with Energy Weapons and Science as two of his tags.
Primary Weapon: Laser RCW
Secondary Weapon: Are there any energy shotguns?
Sidearm: Plasma Defender
Other: C4
Armor/Clothing: Tux and Pre-War Hat :)

Edit: Thread #12 before release? I think so.

From all the accounts I've heard, yes. Intact Garden Gnome got to play it at e3 and said the Cowboy Repeater slayed it. But I don't know if he had the .22 version or if Josh had already changed it to 5.56mm.

Hmmm... I guess that'll work, but I was hoping for something other than a laser weapon, their box shape is hideous.

.46ACP when were the tommygun and laser rifle confirmed I haven't herd this yet?
You gun nuts have come up with alot of good info.

Couple days ago, its a tommy gun styled Thompson that shoots lasers! It is called the Laser RCW.

Not a Thompson of the lead spewing kind. They made it into what appears to be a damn fine laser rifle (possibly unique). It looks like a Tommygun with some extra laser rifle crap on it and does like 100+ DPS. As we used to say up Boston way: Wicked.

Oh so I thought you ment they were two seperate weapons so does that mean there isnt a regular guns version?
Thats still pretty cool though.

No, not that we know of, just the tricked out laser version so far, although I'd like a 10mm Tommy Gun.

Its not a unique firearm I've seen a few *special* Raider type enemies using them quite frequently in a stream I watched. (Even if its not unique the Laser RCW is still ridiculously awesome) :tops:

The Varmint rifle's 5.56 ammo will probably be less rare than the .357 of the Cowboy Repeater.

I already do love you. :P

Oh god, does anyone know if I can still take items off the table with R3 and walk away with it?
Like, in Fallout 3, I used that trick to steal items I didn't feel like buying.

Yeah you can, just make sure you're hidden. In leaked videos, I've seen most items are on display in the general stores so you can steal them easily.
