I cant believe no ones mentioned the Tommy Gun. Make it like the Lincolns Repeater though, only one and hard to find.
Unique double barrel shotgun thats an over-under instead?
Rail gun super compressed into an over the shoulder launcher (like the Tesla Cannon)
What was the hunting rifle in FO3 is now a lever action.
Throwback to old FO2 weapons (Gauss pistol, Jackhammer, .233 sniper rifle)
Also the return of the Louisville Slugger bat from FO2 (unique baseball bat)

People have mentioned the Tommy gun alot...The whole Weapons thread seems to be lost. I gave up looking for it after going like 12 pages back!
I really wish we could get some of these threads made into stickys..

What about special ammo like acid rounds, the rounds are very expensive but deals a lot of damage.

i meant on this thread. considering how densely it was mentioned in other threads i was surprised no one even mentioned it on this one.

Would it be too much to ask for a large COW-DA-PAULT to put Brahmin on and throw em a few miles into the horizon? We already shoot them "on accident" anyway.

The Rad Man...Only 1 in the game. It would be a mini-nuke that when shot would explode into a cloud of radiation..Any NPCs within the Area of effect would writhe on the ground screaming from extensive radiation and become Ghouls within minutes.

Made of a small bulldozer/crane and a lot of rubber hoses/tubing! Schematics for sale at your local butcher shop.

Nice, I thought of something similar and post it here about 6 hours ago but didn't, was going to call it something like the "Ghoulatron".

Hehe, Yeah, It sounds like a good idea but I can see how it would not work with things such as it hitting Important NPCs and such...I suppose they could make it just kill you if you got yourself seeing I'm sure they would not let you turn yourself into a ghoul. Though that would be hilarious!

If you came across it in a random encounter that has a voice on your radio/pipboy suddenly say "Hmmm, I think I should save the game in another slot" ah la Fallout2 and the Monty Python encounter of the with the canyon of death, it would be [censored] hilarious.

Ha! This for sure! And that would be excellent if they brought back the Canyon of death! And perhaps the Skeleton of a Sperm whale in the middle of the desert? But back on topic...Hehehe!

A sniper rifle that shots deathclaws calws and molerats teeth and mirelurk scales and bloatflies sting, and radscropian stingers or just poisened ammo.

a flamer that shoots, FEV liquid, liquid nitrogen, super mutant blood?,nuka cola/quantom and/or "turns the enimy insane" juice

A gun that shoots...GUNS! it would be perfect

A molerat tooth/deathclaw claw/scropio stinger/mirelurk claw chainsaw, or whip

And Elvis' pistol, and his clothes, he'd have two, one regular pistol but it is jewel incrusted, its called "the King" and the other is a laser pistle called "Taking Care of Business"
on the side of the TCB would be the letters TCB in side a lightning bolt!

:whisper: <-->"This guy is a strange one..."

a revolver that you can quickdraw by pressing the attack button so it skips the pulling out animation and fires of a shot, oh and the animation uses faning instead of regular firing.

A crowbar that has it's straight end sharped to a razors edge for stabbing as well as beating people with.

A M2 browning 50.cal with a tripod stand for it.

I like heavy weapons.

Maybe because it was in the other Fallout games?

I Prefer the term "intulectually different"...damn bigots

The problem I am having thinking of new Unique weapons is I don't know what ammo will be in the game. without a wide Variety of ammo I can't think of what guns there could be.

Having a rare gun in the game is pointless if the ammo is not there.
Like I have been wanting 50.cal weapons well without 50.cal ammo there is no point.

The unique weapons in fallout 3 were not all that unique they were just weapons with different names like "old painless." It may have had some differences but it was just the same as all the others. The Devs used the same models just added unique names. Only one of a kind in fallout 3 is the lincoln repeater.

Really this topic should be called Unique names for weapons.

Fallout tactics did it right. The unique weapons were one of a kind guns. Like the "Ruger AC556F" "Walther MPL" "Chauchat" (did not work just there for a joke), and Bren Gun. They were Unique they did not look like any other guns in the game.

a gas grenade that when it explodes, the toxin makes the target psychologically revert back to and relive the moment in their childhood that they first realized they wet the bed.

but then you could not hurt them and they could still shoot at you all they wanted.

they wouldn't be able to shoot you, they'de be to busy pretending to wet the bed.

I love the idea!

not with their mom's voice yelling "oh look what you did!" in their cerebral cortex over and over again.

just picturing the scene of a raider mom freaking out over her raider child wetting the 200 year-old, partially-burnt, mold-ridden mattress in the corner of a cave...har har.

A javelin-esk type missle launcher, slighty stronger, has lock on, and flies in the air and then BAM! vertical impact

A harpoon gun!

Tactic has one. First mission. maybe it was a spear gun... oh well I liked that idea. Put some explosives on it.
