Outside the box FPS weapon

[galaktar]

Ok, the last time I brought up this topic, the results were less than inspiring.

"Dude, lets make a gun that, like, makes people inflate and then, like, explode...wicked. Duuude"

Disappointing to say the least.

- Think of something that takes skill and discretion to use.
- Think of things that you would not normally consider to be a weapon. (Money, Animals, Daisychain IEDs, Civilians, etc)
- Think of something that has moral implications.
- Think of a weapon that, in a video game, you would consider not using because you would have to ask yourself some difficult questions...

Even if you have to craft a game around these responses, I'd like to hear them.

Judging from the title, I'd have said "a realistic shotgun", but...

An immoral gun? Um...a sentient weapon with an imprisoned daemon that gets stronger each person it kills? That when it reaches a certain number you don't quite know will escape?

Oh, a vampiric gun that stole the souls of your enemies and gave them to you, so you'd be more powerful but starting sharing the enemies beliefs?

A crossbow that fires two bolts at high speed at an angle to the player, with an electrified wire between them. The bolts can directly impale the enemy, but, due to their high speed, can also slice into them with the wire. It can also be used to create electrified traps for enemies to wander into, or, with some careful aiming and some luck, imbed one bolt into a wall, forcing the other bolt to whip around a corner, hitting an enemy behind cover. There would be two laser sights to aid in aiming, sighted for each 'bolt arm'. Both bolt arms would be adjustable on the fly to allow you to make precision shots.
