Left 4 Dead Weapons.

[Halfeatendonkey]

Hey guys, im pretty sure this have been asked before, But to wake up dead threads is just not my thing. But - Which weapon do you THINK you will use most ? will you change much or will you stay to one gun ? i think i will mostly use the Shotgun. Shotgun and a Molotov ;)

[iRelentless]

I'll just be getting whatever no-one else picks up and rolling with it for my first few online games, to avoid conflict with people who want a specific gun.

Shotgun will likely be my usual play style though, crouched human shield for close attacks when boxed in. With pistols for longer ranges/when I need to reload and don't have enough time. (assuming they're better than a shotgun over ranges)

[dontleave]

Shotgun and dual pistols for meh.

i though there was an endless supply of gun types when at a chekpoint, so everyone can have there fav weapon.

m16/hunting rifle for me;P

EDIT: oh and the duel hand guns look nice too, i wouldn't mind being "Left 4 Dead" with those... be a nice challenge:P

edit again... oops soz for double post.

[Lolerskates]

Hunting Rifle for me, every chance. Would be badass if they put in the 3d scopes like in Insurgency.

[Puscifer]

yea that would be cool, but without the lag u get from using them in ins...

[No Shelter]

Dule pisties! M16, and pump shotty.

[Lolerskates]

the lag u get from using them in ins...


???Never had any.

[dontleave]

He probably meant framerate drop. It's around 15-20 frames for using a scope, usually.

[Puscifer]

???Never had any.

lol i meant a fps drop not lag, and it was only slight but it was there:P

[Lolerskates]

I get better shots with the lower FPS, but that should be fixed later. along with the other 3000000 things wrong with the game.

yea it has a lot of potential if they sort all the bugs out, did u get crappy run animations on it too?

anyway ive deleted it, rather play css or other games till its all patched up lol:P

[Halfeatendonkey]

The best set up IMO would be - Survivor 1: Shotgun,Molotov And Duels. Survivor 2: Another Shotgun,Molotov and Duels. Survivor 3: M16, Grenade and duels. Survivor 4: Another M16 Or a Hunting Rifle,Grenade and Duels.

If they got into a stand-n-fight situation Survivor 1 n 2 would be kneeling,with the pistols out first, so they could be hitting some targets while the infected still was out of sight of the Shotguns, and Survivor 3 n 4 would wait until they knew they would hit, Burst or single shots at first, when they got closer 1 and 2 would equip there Shotguns and blast the infected to pieces. And 3,4 would be spraying all over the place ^^ tho,this would prolly not work, because when 1 and 2 started to shoot the pistols the infected would be attacking from the sides, the Survivor at the back would be strangled quiet by the Smoker, The boomer would prolly run straight into the Survivors and vomit - prolly get shot and explode. well, you know the rest...

[Halfeatendonkey]

Ye insurgency is shit >.<

[Brazuca]

I am going to use the shotgun, only because it's my favorite gun.

The Uzi, probably 2 shots can kill a normal infected, and probably the best gun to save allies.

People that are going to use the m16 are probably going to use the uzi until they can use the m16.

[Lolerskates]

yeah. not to mention you run into EVERYTHING and sprinting is the most over encumbered bullshit. I've played Call Of Duty 2 with sprint mods that are better.

[dontleave]

So to fix it you should be able to run through things? I've never had a problem with the sprinting except on curbs, and you cant lean by curbs either... odd.

Run animations are funny, the feet are pointed in ward lol.

[Cradoc]

Uzi, and you are going to get duelies no matter what, just cause they are better than 1 pistol XD
then M16 :D

[No Shelter]

I hate using the bipod for the sniper in INS, it moves too quickly and doesn't handle good.

[Lolerskates]

So to fix it you should be able to run through things?

Not being able to run through or over those flat crate things that are ankle high is retarded.

[MolarCorpse]

i would use any gun i saw first and then run out and hope i didnt take a cap gun....

[Etheallmighty]

shotugn...i'll let my friends get them from far away, but what really matters is when u get counter atacked and need to kill a lot fast all aorund u

[Xerosnake90]

I'm grabbin a pump shotgun first game for sure, than M16 at checkpoint. Along with a pipe bomb =]

After that I'll experiment and see whatever.

[Hauger]

I'm not sure yet, since I have not tried it. But I think pistols, shotty and the m16 will be something I enjoy.

[Shroom]

i though there was an endless supply of gun types when at a chekpoint, so everyone can have there fav weapon.

Correct for the starting point guns and ammo etc, dont know about checkpoints or when you find the other weapons.

Uzi, and you are going to get duelies no matter what, just cause they are better than 1 pistol XD

iirc its dual or another space for an item i think


Ill probably take UZI if its decent, hunting rifle would be preferable with duals :)

[Halfeatendonkey]

Shotty and molotov ! cmon guys am i the only one with that ?! O.O im disappointed...

[Rannos]

Shotgun, loved it in CSS with zombie bots (bots with knives,) enjoyed it in Zombie Master and will continue enjoying it in L4D. If I can find one, I'll use the hunting rifle because (by the way they make sound,) it reminds me a lot of my old friend: the Kar 98.

Though, if the Uzi and M16(getting first AK skin I can find for it ;P) are decent I'll try them out. Never liked Auto-Shotguns though, less so in CSS.

Yee Auto Shotty is for Pussies, And i will prolly use M16 alot too, My friends ran as they saw the text &quot;The Honk has joined the game&quot; (Which would be me) On css, M4A1 is my favorite weapon on Css so i will surely try it out on L4D

[Armored_Zombie_Cow]

everyone says duelies are better than 1, but how do u know that the single gun is more like a deagle?
btw i suck at using shotguns so automatics for me!

[dontleave]

How can one beretta be better than two?

[No Shelter]

Cause you can hold it with two hands, aim with it, less recoil.

[bobstheman]

personally I will be using the most likley .308 (or 7.62*51 nato if you want to be technical) hunting rifle because I dont think alot of people will be using it, So I wont have to fight people for it. not to mention I am really good at leading targets, and getting headshots. I think I will be the hunter killer. I'll be the guy holding completley still and then obliterating a boss infected with a well placed shot.

[Magicprime]

I've always said, &quot;When the Zombies rise, I will be using a shotgun.&quot; This is no different.

[dontleave]

It's a video game, it'll hardly make a difference, doubt they even took that into consideration.

[Schizam]

I know you dont need more weapons in the game but I would still want some more. AK anyone? Or maybe a more powerful pistol, gameplay video showed the pistols as meh, looks like your shooting an airsoft gun, I would love a .45.

[Brazuca]

Would be awesome if on hard mode they always hid one VERY powerful pistol at one point of a campaign.

[dontleave]

No... if they hid anything it should be Chuck Norris. But Chuck Norris doesn't hide in shadows, shadows hide in Chuck Norris.

[Hauger]

Think my load out would be: (if I could chose this from the beginning that is)
-Dual Pistols
-M16
-Pipebomb
-Medkit

[Teh Swat]

I'm all about the boomstick baby.

[Shrubberyjsc]

gameplay video showed the pistols as meh

You mean the one were the players wasted entire clips on a few zombies?

I'm pretty sure that if they had stopped firing the zombies would still have dropped.

....aaaaanyway, I'll go with the uzi then the M16. I think... And teh Pipebomb. =D

[Schizam]

No i dont mean the firepower, the animations make them look like your not shooting anything, idk. Also the duelies, why are they in the very corners of the screen? It looks like your arms are way stretched out or your vision is zoomed in.

[dontleave]

Uhhh they're not... and your head is INBETWEEN your shoulders, therefore your arms would be to the side.

[Lolerskates]

I know you dont need more weapons in the game but I would still want some more. AK anyone? Or maybe a more powerful pistol, gameplay video showed the pistols as meh, looks like your shooting an airsoft gun, I would love a .45.


the pistols are .45s.

[Schizam]

They really dont look like it when they shoot.

[Halfeatendonkey]

So dont use them if you think they are so ugly then...God

[Puscifer]

the pistols look brilliant, and the reload anims do imo.

[Schizam]

So dont use them if you think they are so ugly then...God

Sorry if I dont think this is the perfect game, cant I give my opinion? Im looking forward to this game as much as anyone but I cant help but notice some stuff, sorry to everyone for saying 1 thing that I thought wasnt absolutely perfect, so I'll just say what everyone else is, L4D is perfect and there is nothing wrong at all with it.

[Lolerskates]

.45acp isn't a hand cannon caliber. They don't kick too much

[Schizam]

45acp isn't a hand cannon caliber. They don't kick too much

Thats true, nvm I was wrong they look fine.

[Halfeatendonkey]

lol,i have never said that L4D is perfect, No Game is. and no you cant give your opinion,Not here lol this topic was to talk about which gun you think you would use the most.

[Schizam]

Probably the Hunting Rifle and pipe bombs. Although M16 looks pretty cool, also i was just wondering why is there no tier 2 rifle?

[Halfeatendonkey]

Probably the Hunting Rifle and pipe bombs
See that wasnt soo hard was it? :)

[Chronos]

How can one beretta be better than two?
Since when are those berettas?

[d_cover]

i think the pistols or berttea? sounds the same outa DoD source? but i cant wait 2 see if the is any other weapons not long now?

[d_cover]

oh god i would not no wot weapon i will use shottie or m16 is the any other pistols?
