Lore Friendly Weapon List

Recommended Posts

This is meant to be a list of (more or less) Fallout lore themed weapons that I would personally enjoy seeing added to the game. It's not meant to be exclusive to my own tastes, so feel free to post your own suggestions too.

Source(s) on 'lore friendliness':

Fallout 2 (Experience with and Wiki of.)

 

Before Bethesda (apparently) decided that 'any real-looking guns are bad' (slightly subverted with the 'Assault Rifle' in 3 and New Vegas, as well as a few other guns from New Vegas), the Fallout games had many, many examples of real-world firearms were to be found in ruined cities.

Indeed, the M60 was actually used in the first Fallout game. And the PPSH was in Fallout 3, however it was incorrectly used by the game as the "combat shotgun". I believe part of the reason why don't utilize real world weaponry or make as much reference to it is because that certain companies that own the weapons may require rights to do so. This is why games like Payday 2 have many recognizable firearms, but all are renamed to something different than the real world counterpart.

Trudat, but that's still a far cry from what they did going from the AR in Fallout 3 to the 'AR' of Fo4.

 

And seriously, 13.1 pounds on your 'frontline' assault rifle? Insanity! It's like Bethesda devs have never packed a rifle for longer than it took to get their sound clips (which are horrible, BTW.)

 

But I digress. On Bethesda's mod site, you can find the Modern Firearms (Gunsmith Edition), which AFAIK has had the problematic meshes removed completely. It contains at least a couple of the weapons you listed as looking for, Masamune.

 

Namely the M60 and an AK type I believe you can mod to be a reasonable facsimile of an RPK.

 

And somewhere around there was a mod for the Thumper (M79). Not sure about the China Lake yet.

 

If you want, I can throw you some screenshots from the mod to show at least the M60 and (if possible) the RPK.

 

Also, there's a lot of FN gear, such as the M249/Minimi and MK48/Maximi.

I may need to take another look at that mod, then. I tried it but didn't care for it much. I felt like the guns they selected were a bit out of touch for the game, but it's more a personal taste. I'm looking for weapons that are more specifically base around the post WW1 to WW2 to Vietnam eras. Also, most folks that develop video games indeed have not so much as held a gun let alone used one. It's a frequent circumstance. As for the RPK, there's not much to say about it other than it's just a heavy duty AK with a drum mag, and personally I'm so done with AKs. I realize there's a lot of merit in them in reality, they are indeed great reliable weapons. But I hate how they're so popular and "everyone's assault rifle".

Those are the ones I could find as of right now. More will be added in time, of course. Hope this helps!

Seems I'm totally unable to find the version of Modern Firearms featuring the M60. I know it's out there, I've seen the video. But the Nexus doesn't have it. Do you perhaps have a link to it?

(Apparently they're having issues with the CK not building the archive correctly, so you'll need to manually install.)

 

Here you go! It was taken off Nexus due to some assets being prohibited, but has since scrubbed those assets.
