Then they can spin in their graves about how they should have heard that coming.


*Dies laughing* :celebration:

LOL, no JE you are one of my heroes because you know facts like that! What is the average gun that is registered in LV today? What is the average gun that the cops confiscate in LV today? Should those two guns be in FNV, whatever guns they are?

TOMMY GUN!!!!!

A tommy gun? Pretty please?

Absolutely no real-world weapons, especially WWII weapons (except for unique items, such as a trophy Luger passed down through generations or a highly customized Tommy gun adapted for 10mm ammunition passed as the Family heirloom).

Dear, Mr. J.E.Sawyer,

I still don't get it why the "M4" in the PC Gamer article has to look like a real life M4.

Of course it makes sence that weapon design did evolve in Fallout's timeline from the 1950s-2070s but couldn't you modifiy those guns like the M4-lookalike a little bit more so we have at least the illusion that they were built in an alternative timeline?

For example: Slightly different silhouette, magazine shape different, different cartridges than the 5.56 --> example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.280_British

Dear developers, all I want is (in order of badness)..

Throwing knife
Spear
Knife
Club
Ax
Chainsaw
Proton ax
TNT
Grenade
Plastic explosives
Mangler
Sabot rocket
LAW rocket
RPG-7
Flamethrower
M1911A1 45 pistol
VP91Z 9mm pistol
M17 carbine
M19 rifle
Red Ryder
Mac 17 SMG
Uzi SMG Mark 27
AK 97 assault rifle
M1989A1 Nato assault rifle
Laser pistol
Laser carbine
Laser rifle
Ion beamer
Meson cannon

Feel free to add your own contemporary weapons, but those on this list would make pretty solid base to start from. Right? RIGHT?!

Wasteland is not in the Fallout universe (although I'd love to rock out with an AK-97 rifle).

AFAIK, LV doesn't have gun registration... But the most commonly owned guns are likely the same as everywhere else in the US...

9x19mm (9mm Parabellum), .40 S&W, .45 ACP, and 9x17mm (.380 ACP) Semi-Auto Pistols, and .357 Magnum / .38 Special Revolvers. Semi-Auto AR-15's in 5.56x45 (.223), Semi-Auto AK-47/AK-74 clones in 7.62x39, 5.45x39, and 5.56x45 (.223), Semi-Auto M1A's, FAL's, AR-10's, and G3's in 7.62x51 (.308).

As for the type of guns that the police confiscate... In real life, criminals use cheap junky guns, or whatever they can steal... With the possible exception of drug cartels.

A plasma lobbing Big Gun would be nice. A useful Minigun would be nice. Useful Big Guns would be nice!

And ofcourse not such a skewed ratio Energy Weapons versus Small Guns.

We already have a portable super weapon. The Fat Man

I would like to see some modern day weapons that are rusted away and are really hard to repair or to find extra parts, a nice addition would be an armored vehicle that you have to find late in the game and you have to find parts to make it run again since it was ravaged of parts during the war. You would have to find X number of motorcycle or car engines to run it and you would have to power it by using ammo of some sort since gasoline wouldn't be the easiest thing to find in the wasteland. Maybe flamer fuel, electron charge packs, microfusion cells, or energy cells. Plus and AK-47 would be plausible because it was developed in the mid 50's

You guys do realize that Fallout is set in an alternate universe, which diverged from ours in the 1950s, right?

I agree I would also like to customize my weapons, at least be able to hold your breath will using a scoped weapon, and have some more real weapon variaties for instance a M249 SAW (less rounds per minute, more damage) but seeing more fallout unique weapons and weapon add-on's would also be a big plus.

The AK-47.... was developed in 1947.... so true, it could be in the Fallout universe.

And it was held top secret for a long time. Therefore it was not really dominant in American pop culture in the 1950s.

Not too keen on sniper rifles eh? lol

Probably because those rifles are way to modern, why not implement sniper rifles that don't exist in our reallity? Whats wron with "fantasy" SR's like this one: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Sniper_Rifle_%28Fallout%29 ?

I'm a big sniper fan (A.K.A. I like to snipe stuff and I was a successful camper in CS until I stated getting banned for being me but that was YEARS ago) but I just don't like those models

Whilst I completely agree that the L129A1 and the L96 AWM are too modern; the AR10 was developed in 1955, and despite being first introduced in 1969, the M21 looks like it's from 1930 lol! But anyways, to each their own and all that...

I've seen someone mention it but I will again..Throwing knifes! Please! And make it so you can see them sticking out of your target when you hit them!
Also you should be able to pick them back up off the ground and off the targets body after he dies.
