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

I'll use Revolvers, Heavy Machine Guns, and any gun deemed an anti-materiel rifle. I won't use anything that doesn't pack a punch.

 

I'm sorry, but... it's confirmed that magic won't be in the game.

 

True, however, remember Clarke's 3rd Law: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

 

Well the only weapon I wouldn't use is ERROR NOTHING TO INPUT.

 

The only weapons I plan on using are mainly quick, quiet weapons like daggers (sneak mechanic will most likely be in the game so why not daggers ^.^). I will not be using slow weapons like heavy swords, maces, etc. I will also most likely limit ranged weapons for I think using melee and getting up close and personal to your enemy is much more enjoyable than attacking from a distance.

 

Like previously said, i only hate the inventory space for ammo. i am extremley versatile when it comes to weapons. the only weapons that i will not use are consumables that are extremley costly or weapons that are far outclassed by the time i get them. (like trident in terraria...when i finally found it i already had hardmode active.)

 

Gunz are for show Swords are for Pros

 

I agree with all of which you said except the Flamethrower part . i love flamethrowers! they set this on fire and some things, when on fire, EXPLODE!!!!! MWAAAHAHHAHHAHAH

 

I guess I'd use them all, depending on the situation.

 

I'm usually the melee and infinite-ammo ranged guy, myself. Throwing weapons I hardly ever use.

 

Magic, I just hate Magic. The reason why we Potatoes became one because of MAGIC!
But it has some upsides.

 

There is no magic in this game.

 

If they have any ball-n-chain weps like they did in terraria... no thanks. I like ranged, but with a combo system up for melee weapons and some evasive abilities like dashing... I would be more than happy to scrap ranged in an ideal situation. The thing that bothers me about melee is being out of range of an enemy, and the thing that bothers me with ranged is recharge/reload downtime (which would obviously balance it).

I'm surprised you disliked the shotgun :O Even if impractical, it's different and fun. Sort of like a close range rocket launcher without the suicide.

 

You mean weapon classes, right? Good luck getting all 21,000 Rocket Launchers otherwise.
I won't use assault rifles if I can help it; I prefer pistols or shotguns.
Throwing weapons, like knives and ninja stars, are cool but I probably would just end up stockpiling them and not using them much.
Any type of sling, except a slingshot which would actually be really amazing.

 

I love the slingshot idea, it'd be such a fun and silly weapon.

 

No magic? Then I just wont use rocket launchers.

 

I hope we get a Chainsword.

 

If the option is available, I'll probably be running some sort of support-ish kind of character. Cover fire, watching my squad's back, that kind of thing. Carrying loads of healing items or something, you know? So my least used will be like, rocket launchers and heavy machine guns. I'll stick to SMGs and AR's, that type of thing. Standard really, now that I think about it. Solo on the other hand, all out offense, so I'll probably have a bit of every weapon class.

 

melee

why get up close when you can kite everything?

 

I'll only use lead-based small arms and the occasional melee weapon. I don't wanna use anything laser-related unless I'm playing as the type of character that would use them, but I don't have any in my repertoire so that's a pretty slim chance. There's also room for heavy weapons or full-on melee, but for anything relative to sci-fi weaponry? No chance, no dice.
