Which kinds of weapons you probably are NOT going to use much or at all?

sometimes i hate throwing weapons as i have better weapons by the time i get them in the game but they come handy for me sometimes so i don't dislike it a bunch. i am not fond of using weapons that have weak damage like those short range ammo that i don't see the point in using. sometimes some weapons are too situational that i hate carrying them around as well

 

Kamikaze explosive belt. I not gonna use it more than one time...

 

I'll use at least every weapon once.

 

I am one that has an affinity for ranged weapons. I am usually not one that likes to melee all the time (though I can be a juggernaut when I want to ) , yet I hope that there will be bows, arrows, and other such things. Why bows and arrows exactly? Because I think guns are WAY overrated yet too simple to be used in mind games in PvP (I am a large PKer on any indie game like this). Here are my reasons.
The reason why I like Bows is that they are more flexible and have complexity with each shot fired (aside form guns which they are usually Point and Fire). You can adjust how long or short you want to fire, adjust how much arc you want. Arcing is a huge thing when it comes to mind games! Effective arcing [Will define what and how later] makes it tough for enemies (or players) to get close, defend, land a hit, or telegraph your moves. It works by firing an arrow into the air so that it could hit the enemy if they come toward you or just hitting an enemy in an odd fashion. It works by limiting options and preventing them from smartly dodging, expecting it, or getting in multiple hits at once while racking up a lot of damage. Guns are simple and cannot play well with this. In addition, if the enemy in front of you has a natural shield at it's front, a gun cannot magically arc to hit a weak spot. Arrows can if used effectively or properly.

 

By limiting my self to one weapon in Starbound will enhance my experience when I finally use them.

 

You saw the Hallowed Repeater???

 

I don't think there's magic in space.

 

I wont use anything besides my mech and its giant sword and lasers.

 

I probably won't be doing a lot of melee, unless it's near impossible to kill what i am fighting with ranged.

 

I'll pretty much stick with whatever I feel is the most useful for that moment.. If I'm having a hard time with enemies closing in on me, I'll use a melee with some form of knockback or if I happen to run into a slew of ranged enemies then a ranged weapon in return it is. But if I have the option to use a ranged weapon that doesn't need ammo, I will.

 

What I wouldn't use....
I think boring weapons, like automatic weapons, swords, maces and axes.
I like interesting weapons like rockets, flamethrowers and shotguns.
I'll probably mostly stay away from anything uninteresting, like a sword which just deals massive damage. even arrows, such as the holy arrows in Terraria which had a very nice twist to them are interesting, I just don't like simply dealing damage with basic weapons.

 

justin bieber music. because, you know, thats just to cruel...

 

Throwable weapons that you can pick back up (ALWAYS) would be pretty cool. If they were useful in damage and stuff I would probably use those the most. It all really depends on the variety of weapons and the combat system.

 

I don't like flamethrowers or LMGs....

 

I don't like short ranged weapons that much. Specially big swords. Probably because they're too slow >.<

 

Yeah, Terraria really was a bit heavy on the ranged weapons. It was almost impossible to kill the end bosses with anything but long range weapons. So if I loved knight-style fighting, I was always bummed to have to switch all my gear over to ranged to fight the bosses, since the bosses basically required you to use ranged weapons. (exception: the worm bosses)

One thing I liked about the way terraria handled ranged weapons was that it was not expensive to maintain a healthy quiver (who doesn't have gobs of stone and wood?). That is the reason I seldom use bows or thrown weapons in games, and tend to go with swords. I hate running out of ammo and having to run away. (Mount and Blade is terrible in this regard, so little ammo)

So I will probably not use weapons with very limited ammo (thrown or bows)

 

But I love ammunition! Meh! Keep your swords and daggers, I fight with lead and brass (and all that other fun stuffs)...

Deuces!

 

I don't want any weapon other than a replica of Issac Clarke's trusty Plasma Cutter.

 

I hate weapons that attack really slowly, no matter what range, it just bugs me so much!

Lol, I don't see why there isn't.

And I would use Ranged or fast-use melee. And MAGIC.
