Your favourite weapon in Fallout 3?

Not tried them all yet I dont think, but so far it has to be the FatMan

 

Nothing more satisfying than sending a small Nuke into someones face.

 

 

Not too keen on the look of it in 1st person tho, I know everything in game is supposed to look like its been stuck together using sellotape, but the Fat Man just looks like youre holding a big wobbly shopping basket!

My #1 favorite weapon is the Hunting Rifle- it is highly accurate, ammo is cheaper and more plentiful than dirt, and nothing says "Wasteland Badass" like a vintage bolt-action rifle held together with tape and baling wire.

 

#2 is the Scoped .44 Magnum, because it is capable of head-exploding instakills on just about every standard enemy even without a critical hit. Makes a lovely backup or sneak attack weapon because of that.

 

I'd like the Sniper Rifle more, but I've never had more than 30 rounds at a time for it and there just aren't enough of them around to keep it fixed up all the time... I still use it, but only if I'm expecting enemies to be too far away to rely on VATS. The rest of the time, I carry a Combat Shotgun as backup for close-quarters fighting after I run out of APs (though I'm tempted to go back to the Sawed-Off because the Combat Shotgun makes it too easy).

I dont use the Fat Man except against behemoths. My favourite gun is probably the gattling laser Fawkes gets, though i quite like the explosion made by the Nuka-Grenade.

 

I can't give a full judgement though, not having used the Shishkebab, Dart Gun or Railway Gun.

I like the .44, but its hard to keep fixed up.

 

My main gun is the 10mm smg... I just like it for some reason. Also, when I found that girl who had the unique SMG I pulled out my .44 and shot her in the face. MINE!

 

That's just how I roll.

 

y'know you could have gotten it without killing her....

combat shotgun is the one i use the most. i like to sneak-snipe the enemy with my... scouts rifle i think its called? the unique sniper rifle? and then hide behind a wall until they come around the corner, then vats a few shotgun blasts to their face.

 

Aaarrrggg...i want a cainsaw mod, that would be cool.

there is sorta a chainsaw weapon, called the Ripper.

 

y'know you could have gotten it without killing her....

whoops!

Omg no ones mentioned Lincoln's Repeater??!!! Best small gun in game (50dmg), aside from Sydney's smg (60+ dmg i think, but looks like any other 10mm smg). Anyways the repeaters got an awesome look and satisfying click when you load another bullet in the chamber. Most enemies I can one or two shot from far away because its accuracy is so good. Plus this guns easy to keep repaired considering the availability of hunting rifles u can scrap to fix it.

 

Other than that, the Rail road gun is fun as well (love the whistle) but cant touch the repeater as far as damage goes.

" what good is a nuke if it cant even shatter a bottle of beer... "

 

 

 

Haha very good point Jaysus.

 

And yeah there is a chainsaw, called the Ripper.

 

 

ANd the Shishekebab is pretty cool, seems overpowered tho, can rip a supermutant apart in a few hits (whilst burning him alive)
