Which weapons do you hotkey?

 

I am a bit of sniper, heavy weapons, melee and close range fighter, and am using all knds of weapons. Usually starting with Guns and later, around level 15-20, my arsenal looks like this, by hotkeys:

 

1 - a melee weapon - not to waste my ammo when and if I run out of it.

3 - a pistol/a SMG/a Flamer

4 - a shotgun, preferably an automatic one

5 - a sprayer (gatling laser, an MG and such)

6 - Mercy/Grenade MG

7 - the Red Glare (the auto rocket launcher from the lonesome Road)

8 - a Sniper weapon

 

What's your combo?

8 - a Sniper weapon

 

What's your combo?

1 - Always a scoped rifle

3- Typically SMG

4 - Shotgun

5 - Revolver or semi-auto pistol

6 - Lever action rifle

7 - Current favorite melee. RIght now the chainsaw. I had that sweet True Killer machete mod, but Veronica lost it somehow and I can't get another (unless I spawned it, which I won't).

8 - Anything else that I think may come in handy at some point. Possibly an RPG, but I don't typically carry one around.

1-melee weapon.

3-handgun perferbly suppressed.

4-Rifle-I like the 308 chambered semi-auto varients.

5-Sniper rifle tricked out. I perfer the 308 over the 50 cal.

6-Heavy weapon-grenade launcher or rocket.

7-stimpacks.

 

I use a mod with a grenade key for dyanamite and gernades and have tossing them it quick-keyed to a center mouse button.

It depends on my build, but generally:

 

1 - H2H weapon (weakest in my arsenal for strict H2H builds)

3 - Weakest gun / hand guns / non-lethal guns / flamethrowers

4 / 5 / 6 - Weapons get stronger

6 / 7 - Sniper weapons

7 / 8 - Launchers and thrown weapoms

 

So for a big and unwieldy weapons and grenades build:

 

1 - Bumper sword

3 - Miniguns (low damage per bullet)

4 / 5 - Light machineguns / Browning M2

6 - Anti-material tifle

7 - Launcher

8 - Grenades and mines

Once I finish fighting with the .ini files to make the 2 button useable again...

 

1 High damage or rapid fire weapon for things getting in my face. Usually a shotgun or pistol.

2 Automatic weapon for spray and pray

3 Long range rifle

4 Grenades

5 Melee/Unarmed, but I usually don't bother.

6 Missile/Rocket launcher or Fatman if I'm carrying one. Usually I don't.

8 Ammo switch (where it should have been put to start with)

[KittenFromRussia]

1-high priority-Pulse Gun

3-high priority- M14 by millenia
