Capable of taking people out, so consider using it against people that you don't want to waste ammo on. Baseball Bat: No skill needed really, just walk up to someone and wack 'em round the head. Capable of taking people out, so consider using it against people that you don't want to waste ammo on. Berrata: Just a handgun really, handy for taking out heavies one on one, but for groups of them your better off looking somewhere else. Desert Eagle: Just a handgun really, handy for taking out heavies one on one, but for groups of them your better off looking somewhere else. Dual Berrata: Two berrata's = twice the power, these are really useful, even in bullet time. These are quite good even in the heart of battle, but again there is still better guns out there. Jackhammer: I love this weapon, as - if not more powerful then the pump action shotgun as well as having a much better clip size (12 vs 7). Try it out on a stair case, because it's more than likly that this class piece of equipment will knock them off the stairs! Pump action Shotgun: I love this gun, although it has a small clip size and a poor rate of fire it is a very powerful gun, at close range. Unfortuantly alot of the heavies you'll meet know this too, meaning that you'll often be blasted with this weapon. Sawed Off Shotgun: A very poor clip size of only two aswell as being almost useless at anything other than close range this gun is one of the worst guns in the game. The pump action puts this to shame, theres little point of it actually being in the game (at least in my opinoin). Ingram: Very useful in all stages of the game, a great clip size and a high rate of fire there are little who can stand in this cold killers way. Its high rate of fire makes it great in bullet time, making it even more worth while to use. Dual Imgrams: Normaly you'd be mad not to use these, men literally fall before it, creating an almost laughably easy game experience but they're even more deadly while in bullet time, making them some of the most deadly weapons you'll come accross. Colt Commando: Very good, this is my most used weapon in the game, although it doesn't have the speed or clip size of the Dual imgrams, it's just fuin to use, of course power wise dual imgrams every time but for sheer fun take this. It does have merit as a weapon in its own right, overall its one of the best guns you'll come accross. M79: The big daddy of guns, just point shoot and see the bodies pile up. The trouble is in the close quaters combat you'll find yourself in you will cause alot of damage to yourself as well as your foes. Sniper Rifle: Extremly fun, just watch the bullet leave your gun then it it's mark, its very ammo eficient one shot to one kill is good. But it's slow rate of fire means that pulling it out in front of serval bad guys may leave you dead. Molotov: Bursts in flame and sets fire to those around you. Be careful as it can happen to you as well. The best part about these is when a heavy starts lobbing them your way, if you position yourself right they'll throw it at the wall lighting themselves up! Grenades: Pretty standard. Throw, blow, kill. Very painful if your caught in the blast, listen out for the tale tell sounds of one hitting the ground, then leg it. ===================================================================== = !!!!.Thanks = ===================================================================== With thanks to: www.neoseeker.com For hosting this guide.
