the most impractical weapon you have ever incountered in a videogame

[jamradar]

Mine would have to be the Dalokohs Bar from TF2.

 

[Saulkar]

Japanese Mecha. Those throw practicality out the window.

 

[twaddle]

i let this play for ten minutes and it never fucking stoped O_O

u

Magikarp's Splash.

Just to solidify this guy's point.

Won't they run out of PP eventually and have to use Struggle eventually...

pokemon :Tail whip....u would think that there would be some damage behind it since it is using it's tail as a whip...

Two words:

M-920 Cain.

It's basically Fallout 3's Fat Man; it launches nukes. Except it's a convenient, portable 24th-century nuke launcher that folds up and neatly fits in your back pocket when not in use. The impracticality is that there is rarely--if ever--a space large enough to use it in and not kill yourself with it. This downside is exacerbated by the fact that ammo for this win-gun is prohibitively scarce.

But when you DO get to use it...

*Ka-chak...BRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIIIIII--KA-CHOOMP!*

*Win.*

 

[CaptainKoala]

The ballistic knife in Black Ops. They existed but they were SOOOOO inaccurate.

yea,the most impractical weapon ever.I can't really put a finger on mine but arguably the carbine from halo.The needle rifle is better than this and when I was playing halo 3 I RARELY used it.

Really? Really? You know you can zoom in with the carbine, right? In my opinion, the carbine is an excellent weapon.

The magnification is the same with the needle rifle, it just makes dude go ka-blam.


I gotta go with the any gun from borderlands with the soldier's cauterize skill. Broken leg? Shotgun to the face'll do the trick!

I loved that weapon in the first one! It could take down 4 Zombies at once! Soooo I'm asuming it's nerfed in the sequel than?

 

[Throwitawaynow]

Crowbar, silly gordon.

Tell that to somebody holding a crowbar.

As is the case when you have to result to the crowbar in that game, the other person would be a giant robot, or something that wants to become intimate with your face.

 

[lacktheknack]

The Chinese Pistol in Fallout 3.

Has anyone ever used that piece of junk?

Once, out of desperation. I might as well of tried to cockslap everything to death.

I think the gun probably would be a better option. :O

I don't. At least if I cockslapped everything to death, the enemies would be so stunned and confused that they'd stop attacking for a few seconds.

Toss up between the stop sign of Persona 3 Fes (weapon for one of your party members who dies half way through, but the player can wield it too since he can use all the weapons) and the Baker's Daughter weapon for Cassandra Alexandra in SC IV. It looks like a rolling pin for a sword and a basket for a shield.

 

[lacktheknack]

Wow, what's with all the hate on shotguns? Say for example you're playing MW2 (shit game, but this is an example), you're on Estate, and there's a bunch of guys holed up in the house sniping. Grab a silenced SPAS-12, sneak in, and you just got 6 kills.

OT: Anything in Fallout 3 that wasn't a gun.

You've never used a stealthy approach and a Deathclaw Gauntlet, or a flamboyant approach with a shishkebab, have you? Not only do they LOOK epic, they deal great damage (the gauntlet ignores armor, the shishkebab sets enemies on fire).

 

[Yureina]

I don't. At least if I cockslapped everything to death, the enemies would be so stunned and confused that they'd stop attacking for a few seconds.

I think the raiders would just say "kick ass" if you did that.

 

[SelectivelyEvil13]

The Centurion from Singularity is simply pathetic. The game is like a Russian Sci-fi/Alternate history game copying Bioshock, and those who've played Bioshock know that pistol proves its worth. In Singularity, there are essentially four guns, one of which is the unremarkable, slow-firing, low ammo Centurion pistol. The others? A relatively quick firing shotgun, an assault rifle with overall high damage, good accuracy, and plentiful ammunition, and a sniper rifle that can slow down time for piss-easy headshots. You can only carry two weapons at a time. Oh I wonder which gun never gets used...

 

[Atmos Duality]

The Crossbow from Deus Ex.

I must be doing something wrong, because I have NEVER been able to get that piece of junk to work properly. It has always been far more efficient for me to knife, or hell, even sneak past the A.I rather than using it.

Really? It's the second most amazing weapon in the game for me (behind Mastered Sniper Rifle, which can destroy cameras, most turrets, and wall alarms with one shot, silenced and from across the map if need be).
The Tranq darts OHKO most human targets in the game, and those it doesn't KO it leaves in near critical for a follow-up pistol round or baton across the chops.
And I can consistently land stealth kills with the normal darts (aim just above the head to account for the slight arc) once I get the skill level to 3+.

Once you realize how to account for the shot velocity, it's very easy to hit targets from cover; even if you screw up, you can retrieve the ammo (usually) and it's completely silent to boot. Definitely worth mastering.

The Finger from Worms.

*Poke* 1 damage!

The prod was awesome! You could push people off cliffs with it!

Agreed, the practicality of the 'poke' was humiliation. It has resulted in aq head hitting the desk multiple times. Once it was down to one worm each. He had more health than mea nd dropped a bomb in the middle of us. I had only a few health left and he had enough that i coudln't easily kill him in one shot. However, the bomb had blown him to the edge of a cliff. I teleported, stood next to him, and poked him off into the water.
