Guns/Weapons in GTAIV

[Artur]

Yeah man, I know everyone loved the Golden Gun in 007 but it's GTA. A deagle or revolver will do just fine for me.

[tilly]

that would be a big ass mag!

and that ol' reliable 50 cal from WW2 is too heavy to carry. i bet the chain of bullets for it is too heavy.

a tazer would be cool.

yeah its 300 pounds not counting the ammo. even the bullets+shells+powder are like a pound each. then multiply that by 140 bullets each box and you get about 600 pounds. not worth it. id rather get a vulcan.

[Artur]

Holy crap, that's heavy. I'd only use it if it was mounted somewhere then...

[tilly]

yeah, military base, hummer, (house?)

[Artur]

Maybe set up for you by some guy to assassinate someone? I just realized something: in GTA it didn't really matter how heavy the guns were like you could be carrying a Revolver, SMG, Shotgun, Assault Rifle, Sniper, Mini-Gun and your speed would only depend on which weapon you were using. So maybe you could a carry the .50cal around in GTA IV but only shoot it stationary and you would have to set it up.

[tilly]

that would be stupid still. i hated the tiers of weapons. it was really annoying. its already unrealistic to carry like 5 things, why limit us to like 12. couldnt they just give us the full like 35?

[Artur]

Lol, that'd take a while to scan through until you got the weapon you wanted. But yeah I agree that the previous games have been unrealistic but if they took that out for the weapons part we would only have 2-3 guns at a time which would really suck. I'm just hoping it comes back and that R* doesn't take the game to a really realistic level where everything we know and love would be gone.

[nabo]

My gun wishlist:

1. Desert Eagle

2. Colt m4a1

3. Ak 47

4. MP5

5. Old Skool Thompson

6. MP40 from WW2

7. Real sniper rifle of some kind

8. Five Seven gun from css dont know if that is the real name...

My list is longer but im too lazy to post anymore...

they could put a gun pause set selection gun-selector. like you pause and click "gun select" and then it gives you handguns, machine guns, submachine guns, assult rifles, rifles, shotguns and all that stuff.

and nabo, then 5-7 gun is called a five seven. thats the name.

oh and a cool gun would be a deringer (modern style) that you could keep in a pocket of a jacket or your sleeve for quick and (sortof) stealthy shooting.

That would be super unrealistic and I don't know if R* would do something like that or just stick to the old method. Kinda reminds me of the Matrix when they get tons of guns. Something else that should be incorporated I think is that when you have guns on you, you can go to your house/safehouse and store them there for later. So when you come back you just get the guns you want and go kick some ass.

[tilly]

yeah how about holding 6 of ANY gun. no matter what. no tiers. no selective switching.

[Artur]

That would be cool, never thought of that. Having 2 different shotguns, 3 different SMGs, wow that would awesome.

[Silberio]

The Five-Seven is called FN Five-Seven, as i know.

And that selectin guns menu just is un realistic as puting a talking spider that rides on a tiger, also, it would take too much time, its faster to just click some button and you got a weapon.

And the 50 Cal. as my riend said, that you carry it, but too shoot, ya gotta mount it somewhere.

And how come you could shoot it in Call Of Duty 2: Big Red One?!

[Nate10]

Yeah, being able to only hold one gun of a certain category was gay.

The old school Thompson sounds cool.

[Silberio]

M1A1 Thompson, to be more specific.

And i didnt think it was so gay with the "one weappon of each category", what would be nice, is to have at least 2 guns of each category

[Nate10]

What about some goofy weapons or silly weapons? Something silly that'd fit New York.....can't think of any atm though.

[Artur]

Hehe, like the dildos in SA? I'm sure R* will put something like that in GTA IV. Maybe the dildo chainsaw we saw in the sex shop also in SA.

[Nate10]

Lol, a dildo chainsaw. Fun stuff I'm guessing

How about some resourceful objects around you in you don't have any weapons?.....Artur mmentioned it earlier I think but I think it'd be cool to get like a plastic bag, pipe, brick etc.

[Silberio]

Yeah... would be nice.

A pretty silly question, how the hell is the Dildo-Chainsaw supposed to work?

[Artur]

Yeah that's what I was talking about earlier. I think I copied that from the GTA IV wish list but whatever it would still be cool. Use almost anything as a weapon and it would be really useful.

[gonzalesthewondersnail]

I personally want to be able to pick up anything off the street and throw it. Say like a bench, or another person. Why should you be limited to yourself for weapons?

[Artur]

Yeah being able to pick up things would be awesome. You could sort of throw people in VCS when you grappled them. Hope this is taken a level further.

[Nate10]

Lol, a bench. Heh, but yeah....just being resourceful with your environment would be a cool aspect to take on in GTAIV. And they don't tell you, you kinda figure it out as you go along. Or something.....

[Samiam3]

OOHHH maybe like Crackdown or dead rising, you can use basically anything and at full strength you can pick up cars and throw them!!!

This game is based on real life not superhero life.
