Swords or Guns?

i prefer guns to swords but i hate them having ammo so i usually use swords, unless there a gun that uses mana or starbounds equivalent probably a sword

 

Personally I'd choose guns, I'd like to keep the enemy away from striking distance. With teleportation or Jetpacking, you could keep any melee player away from you and deal damage. I may use a sword before I use a gun but, gun is my personal choice.

 

Neither.
Spears.

 

Well, if I had to choose, I would like to use swords more I think. More combat options than spam clicking from afar, I could add flair and strategy when playing with swords.

If both was an option I would use a pistol and a sword that way I could be like the guy from Red Steel 2.

 

Where's the Magic option?

If it were only one or the other however, I would go guns.

Also:

+1 just because of your avatar.

 

I said guns, but that might change when I really play the game. In Terraria I preferred guns because not only was staying away from enemies the most reliable way not to get hurt, they felt more skill based. However, now there will be shields as well and most enemies won't be contact damage. It's a bit of a toss up but I will probably use guns.

 

Magical swords.
Magical guns are a close second

 

Guns. Nothing quite like laying down a wall of fully automatic lead.

 

im a gun person in real-life, and that surely extends to my preference in-game. i plan on having an enormous collection of guns in-game, carrying a lot at the same time to be ready for any situation.
rifles for surface exploration, shotgun for underground and so on.
in-fact, i would love if there was display racks in-game so that i can expose my collection in my HQ

 

I always just liked swords better, and I'm really cheap and don't like to buy ammo

 

I choose blades and revolvers!
Or rifles with bayonets!

 

I just love the feeling of whacking people with something, so swords. I just don't get that same bashy feeling from a gun...

 

Depends on how the swords are implemented - if they're in Terraria style - i would go with Guns. "But if theyre like" the z-saber in Mega Man X or Mega Man Zero - i would definitely use swords.

 

Guns, all day every day. I prefer to get no closer to an enemy than I have to.

Although, it'd be really neat if the gravity of a planet affected a bullet. For example, if a planet had really high gravity, the bullet would hardly go anywhere before dropping to the ground, making a sword the only option. That'd be neat.

 

Guns. Dual-wield guns.

I'll be like a space cowboy!

 

1 Handed Meele with a shield for me. I think it would be much easier to time a block against a projectile unless it is at crazy speeds. To avoide a meele strike would probably involve more foresight and prediction. When on the offensive you can shoot and hope you hit, or you can swing and know you hit.

Now the wildcard to all this would be a skilled medium to close ranged gun wielder. That would be a rough fight.

 

Guns for most attacks, and swords to finish them off. I hope that some weapons can't be dual weilded, like rifles and shotguns, it would just look ridiculous.

Don't forget Rocket Lawnchairs.

 

I would hold a rocket launcher in my left hand, and a giant sword in my right hand. Double wielding for the win!

 

You mean like this?
