What's the deal with the Shotguns in this game They both sound like somebody knocking a soda can over

>>382799325
Sound design was all-around awful in Doom 3.

>>382799248
Sub 40% aimlet detected.

>>382798927

The only weapon better than the shotgun in doom 3 is the double barrel shotgun in resurrection of evil.

>>382799390

Doom 3 redux is probably the best mod for the game and it is straight up vanilla: turbo edition. Better graphics and better sound effects (oh man that shotgun boom) with no gameplay changes.

>>382799248

What the fuck

>>382798927
Any shotgun that dosen't one shot most things

>>382799795
the double barrel was literally a melee weapon, its still shit

I just turned it on to replay it for....god knows how many times I've played this already. I'm not even on pick profile screen and the OST already got me immersed. Soo much memories... Don't you just love Fable TLC /v/?

Fallout has a lot of contenders

Chinese pistol in fallout 3.
Statistically worse than your starter in every aspect and cannibalizes the same ammo.

Institute weapons in fallout 4
Shit damage and shit accuracy with mediocre dps using the same ammo as normal eweps is a bad formula in a game with limited ammo

Long fuse dynamite in fallout New Vegas
What is the point of this weapon? You can't use it premeditated or in emergencies, its super unwieldy

Laser tripmine from Duke Nukem 3D, or actually any wall mine from any game ever. It's so fucking useless, the enemy AI is not clever enough to roam in the hallways without Duke getting them follow him. Same mine is in Half-Life, never found any use for it. Played through the whole game without using it once.

I guess it can be useful in multiplayer, but in singleplayer it's pretty fucking useless.

I disagree there. The E-11, Bowcaster, and Flechette are great. Jedi Knight sucked, only game in the series I've never played more than once because the gameplay, level design, story, and cutscenes are all shit. Is just an awkward early full 3D game that isn't fun like Dark Forces 1 or JO and JA

What the hell were you even trying to say? Also, fuck you, JK was the best in the series.

>>382800374
In the Half-life 2 campaign there's a weird bug with this pistol where if you hold down left and right click at the same time you'll start storing fired shots at about the rate the pistol automatically fires when holding left mouse.
When you release right click it will unleash all stored shots in a single shot, making it into a devastating and accurate shotgun.

This bug only exists in the singleplayer and was fixed in the multiplayer
I've never tested it with EP1 or 2 to see if it works there.

You're probably right, I just like blowing brains out with a colt python

>>382806452
It's basically an area-denial mine launcher. You can use it to delay passage through an area, either to cover your escape or prevent enemy movement. It's only really useful on CTF with corridors though, since large areas can't really be denied and deathmatch you might as well kill your target.

Slap a scope on a Abakan and you'll be better off, especially since at early stages of the game you will have more ruskie ammo than NATO ammo. And if you want to use NATO ammo that bad, use a LR300.

>>382806331

I use this thing all the time in first person because it has my favourite firing noise and I love pocket pistols.
It also does the most damage out of the original lower calibur pistols (the deagle and 1911 with the dot sight do more damage)

> Lore: "Against an unshielded target, single ignitions can inflict 3rd degree burns and a guarantee of cancer at 100 yards, and within 50 you begin to see 4th degree burns and spontaneous contracture. Exposure at 25 yards is a death sentence even when protected behind several inches of armor plating; liquefaction of the dermis and internal organs is common"

Are you stupid, Doric is ridiculously OP. Smaller mounts only mean you attract less heat, and you have so much shields you can just piss around with whatever you want. And it stomps as hard as Broodmare. It's the second best Spacer mech. Mantis isn't even in the same league, Mantis has less Shield+Overshield than Doric has regular Shield. And where did you get that Mantis is faster? They have the same stats in Acquisitions.

The only bad Spacer mech is Aetos because of how much of a disappointment it is. It good, it just isn't overpowered like what you'd expect.

This is the most useful weapon on Legendary. It decimates the enemies' shields, easily picks off grunts/jackals from afar, and realistically never runs out of ammo due to how often it drops. You disgust me, and you're 4chan privileges must be revoked

It has tank and relative controls. Relative are the default nowadays but you really should use tank (absolute) unless you're playing with a controller (but the game was designed for M+KB). If you're in a tank or mech, WASD controls legs/tracks and mouse controls turret/torso. With an agrav, it's simpler as agravs can strafe.

>Uses a fuckton of bullets with low damage

In a game where inventory management is fucking paramount, you want weapons that give you the best bang for your buck. This gun is terrible, a lower rate of fire with much higher damage is vastly preferable so you can conserve inventory space.

>>382810358
>>382810661
Agreed. It and the Nihilanth are amazing as a conclusion to the game. It's totally alien and bizarre and not something lazy like a reskinned Earth. I can't think of many games where the alien world actually looks alien. The moment you finally kill the Nilanth responsible for all that shit you went through is one of the most epic moments in gaming too.

Shotguns are viable on certain maps or in certain rooms. I like using it on Border if the other team is holed up in server room cause one or two roamers will be near tellers usually and I can just punish that with a flank as Sledge.

>>382811753
Honestly, I've never played a game where shootguns were that bland.
You needed like 32 shells and 10 minutes to load them in their chambers and fire, just to kill a medium-high tier enemy.
At the end the crossbow and the rocket launcher were the only weapons that did anything other than the sword.

>>382809537

The Spitfire is useless for the constant running and gunning, which is how you should play the game. The ADS is slow, the sights are either terrible (iron) or too much zoom for snappy kills. The TTK is weak as fuck compared to most other guns. I love this game, love it with all my heart. But I wish there was a gun besides the R201/R101 and R97 to absolutely dominate with.

You CAN do well with it but I think it's at best C tier, and I diskike they essentially turned the Devotion into a super amped Titanfall 1 spitfire.

There is just literally no reason to use it in a serious match.

>>382800368
I actually used that heavily with the blast mod. It was better in close range than the HAR. But was more versatile than the combat shotgun, although Combat shotgun was my favorite in that game because 3 shot burst mod.

I mean, it's appealing because it's large and intimidating. It's not designed to be a sniper rifle IRL, it's not as precise as the "real" sniper rifles. It's good for destroying enemy equipment and blowing up explosives remotely. You can also use it to kill people from far away, but there are better alternatives.

I swapped guns constantly in NU-Doom. That was my long ranged weapon (cus I wasn't using upgrades to get the HAR Scope) until I got the railcannon thing.

one of the many things that I fixed with mods. I actually had a good time with fallout 4 with like 300 mods running

Do magic spells count? Because the Magical Light in Actraiser is garbage. It can clear the screen of enemies but sucks against bosses, doing hardly anything to them. Too bad nearly every enemy already dies in 1-2 swings of the sword. A spell you get in the second area of the game is more effective, and this is the very last spell, with only 2 levels left.

Automatic weapons in FO4 are shit in general to be honest. Semi auto is easily the way to go

Most people don't like how it sounds or feels.

The cool thing about it is that you can freeze the respawning rumblers in The Body of the Many and they won't respawn (because they aren't dead).

It's also only 3 Energy, first 4 levels of upgrades are cheap even on Impossible.

Worm Launcher is the biggest pile of junk in the game.

>>382816158
Aren't explosive/bleeding miniguns the most retardedly OP things in FO4? I don't mind how it looks, btw. FO3 version with the huge useless pack didn't look all that much better.

The gonarch is no queen, merely a fully grown one. Also a giant testicle.

Literally an accident born of a last minute change.

>"Alright, we have a plasma gatling gun, a shotgun with ricocheting explosive shots, a triple rocket launcher, a buzzsaw chakram and a portable particle accellerator. What else could we add to the arsenal?"

>"Brilliant! You know what, add another version that has a small chance of actually killing something and yet another rare one that can only kill one type of enemy in the game."

So cool but so shit

Came to this thread just to post this. The SMG also was bad for opposite reasons: the HL2 pistol sounded like it shot weak farts and did little damage, while the SMG sounded like a distorted assault rifle that recoiled like a heavy machine gun.

>>382813235
you sound like you do not play the game.

How did this game have better graphics than BF3/4?

Yeah, the right legendary buff can break the game easily. Having to roll on a random chance magic weapon like a fucking MMO/Borderlands rip off just continued to sour my thoughts on Fallout 4's weapons and items though.

>>382816941
That's the one that has to be taken apart to reload, right?

sorta, start at the 9:40 mark

also, the DAO-12 was awesome, and the AK-101 was OVERPOWERED AS SHIT

>>382811013
Any Halo game post CE this weapon is NECESSARY to complete the game on Legendary. You're never going to drop an Elite's shields without dying otherwise

>>382816886
apparently, at least that is what the design documents from HL1 say.
there was even stark opposition from some of the team to put in a huge swinging ballsack in the game, but Gaben thought it was too funny not to do.

>>382817503
Yet they never put in Mr. Friendly.

>>382817052
get some ~mods~

>>382810420
I used this because I liked its big red dot sight.

>>382817729
Is there a mod that removes the legendary system yet.

>>382817916
Theres one that makes the legendary effects craftable in several different flavors. Its a huge life saver.

>>382817916
i want to cock punch the asshole that thought a borderlands loot system was what fallout needed

>>382816837
I thought Mirror's Edge is supposed to look good...

>>382817503
Wait, I masturbated to it in High School thinking it was a female
This doesn't make me gay does it?

>>382817916
>>382818049
I think those only show up if you play on Hard or harder.

even the enclave was more impressive than these fucks

>>382817458

And that is why Halo 2 was a mistake.

>>382818396
in game it's an egg sack
in injokes it's a ball sack

>>382817458
Dude, just use whatever you like in Halo 3 Legendary. It was the easiest of the bunch

>>382800704
The man said pistols, not "Fist of an Angry God"

>>382818412
Actually they show up on any difficulty, but higher difficulty means legendary enemies with legendary loot are more common
