There's a lot of speculation, I haven't seen anything concrete yet.
I think you'll survive to see when the time approaches.

Hasn't been confirmed... yet.

I wouldn't be surprised. Expect that it is in there. 50's era, Vegas, probable.

There was a previous topic about this linking to a video of QuakeCon footage(sorry I don't have the link :sadvaultboy: ), with a gun similar to a Tommy-gun, but someone though it was an American-180; due to the characteristic pan mag, they are probably right. But, as previously stated, Tommy gun not confirmed.

It's been Confirmed that weapon was a .22 cal machine gun by J.E Sawyer and not the Tommy Gun.

in a previous topic linking to a video of QuakeCon footage(sorry I don't have the link :sadvaultboy: ) that had a gun someone thought was the tommy gun, but someone pointed out it was an American-180; dev poped in to confirm and stated what its called in game "silenced .22 smg". But, as previously stated, Tommy gun not confirmed.

fixed.

snip

Does not mean it will be in the game. Good chance it will be but not hard proof. I am sure by now we can all agree we just want a Dev to tell us or GStaff, someone working with the game to tell us that it will be in the game. That or a clear game play video or screen shot. I would also want them to add "and yes it uses .45 cal ammo."

ok. if Obsidian used that for promotional picture for gamestop, and didnt include the tommy in the game, heads would roll. this gives me hope!

maybe they just want to torture you with the wait, its not like the gun is an earth shatering weapon that drives the story.
i don't think its would destroy the game to say, tommygun confirmed.

They are masters of suspense that's for sure. It should be in the game. One: it was a common weapon in FO2 and there are two in FO Tactics. Two: It's Vegas in the 1950's mindset. There will be mobsters using the Tommy gun, there are in New Reno. Three: I want to make a mobster character. He dresses in a fine pinstripe suit, fedora, smokes Cigars. Main weapon, Tommy Gun also used Colt .45, baseball bat and brass knuckes. I can't do this without the Tommy Gun or .45 cal ammo.

I don't know if there will be cigars but there should. If no cigars, I can settle for Cigarrets as long as I can smoke them.

Hey don't edit my quote please, that's not what I said. I said nothing about a silenced .22 or whatever.

Chill. He was just telling these guys what the devs actually confirmed the weapon in that video to be.

I understand, but he could have left it out of the quote. I just don't like when people say I said something I did not. No biggie.

i would love the tommy gun or a gun thats close to it to be in there as there is most likly. but if not its not like its going to make the game any worse

I don't really care if there is a Tommy gun or not, I just want more SMGs!

the real thing i want is dual pistols and or a really good pistols

I agree, not so much the 'dual' part, but that would be cool. I want more pistols in general. In fallout 3 there was like 4. I mean, pistols are probably pretty easy to get, like just off the street or something, so I would assume there would be more that (Not including the plasma pistol, plasma tech was more after Apocalypse, from the Commonwealth I think.).

i agree. pistols are my favorite things to shoot. second would be my 12 gage. but with my 9mm i can mess around a little

I hope will be more that 2 shotguns in New Vegas. But again, I agree. I like to try and kill high level creatures with a 10mm pistol. :toughninja: :facepalm:

i like it to. plus if im high skilled and shot a guy a couple times in the head(assuming they dont have power armor on as DT would stop the bullet) theyd fall to the ground flopping like a fish

» Sat May 28, 2011 7:45 am

I have a very strong feeling the game will have them. I mean, it's Vegas, there's a Mafia-esque organisation, and people on this forum have been screaming about it for months -- I really don't see why Obsidian wouldn't include it.

Yes, although a one-hit-kill-headshot would cause people to rage about how New Vegas is not an FPS, but maybe a high-level perk(iono, named 'Assassin' or something) that would allow immediate headshot kills. *edit* unless that is what you meant...
