The shink ray from Duke Nukem 3D was a delight to use in deathmatches. Shrink your opponent and squish 'em!

Golden Eye is the GOAT

I never played a lot of FPS, but I loved the Quake rocket launcher. It was fun to jump around with in multiplayer. But what I enjoyed most of all was the satisfaction of guessing when someone rounded the corner and having a rocket land at the exact same time.

Pissing in postal

The Thumper from Tribes. Most people went with the Spinfusor because of the linear projectile, but once you learn to account for the arcing shots the Thumper was better.

Pistol with a pocket full of coins. Uktrakill.

When i first played ultrakill, i thought: yeah, it's fine. I guess this is a okay game. Wait a minute... Coins? Is this the best game ever made?

I played CoD4 a lot. As well as Halo 1. In both games I always liked the sniper.

Long barrel ksg. Many good memories trolling on Hijacked.

[-] phx@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

Voodoo Doll from the game Blood.

Just look, and poke!

Quake 1 HWGuy gatling. Tap, tap, tap to keep it spinning ... enemy appears at the bottom of the elevator shaft ... BZZZZZT.

I always liked double pistols in Serious Sam. They had infinite ammo and felt pretty good to shoot.

A simple.handgun, I like to just take a moment to aim for the head

SR8 in Urban Terror... used to have so much fun sniping people in that game

The cerebral bore from turok 2.

[-] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

Original Unreal Tournament shock rifle. Nothing has ever been quite as satisfying as nailing a perfect shock combo.

But close second is the Tribes mortar. Tribes 2 especially. The teamplay potential with the laser designator was an incredible bit of design.

The SH1900 from The Finals is one of the most satisfying guns I've used in a game before. Kicks like a horse but chunks away enemy health bars. High risk, high reward, high octane. And the audio just thumps you right in the chest with every shot, almost as much as the folks on the business end of the barrel.

Gravity Gun.

[-] Gurei@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

The Farsight in Perfect Dark. Alas, I'll never be as good with it like I was back in high school.

[-] arotrios@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Probably an unpopular opinion, but the Magnum in L4D2. For whatever reason, it's the most satisfying gun I've used in any game - the weight, action, recoil and sound all come together in a perfect package.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Yeah, that gun rocks. The magnum in Black Mesa is also pretty great, and probably based on the same feel.

Hellstaff from Heretic, both with and without a Tome of Power

[-] IHawkMike@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

The Kuva Bramma in Warframe. Just rains cluster bombs.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 3 months ago

Does whatever the hell I can manage to scrounge on Mothergunship counts?

[-] Tenkard@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Stuff that makes enemies explode in 1 hit, like bfg10k or the sniper ray in quake 3. As for more absurd things, armed and dangerous had shark guns, reverse gravity gun and others

[-] Spider89@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

Hagar from Xonotic.

[-] manmachine@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Torn between the classic Doom super shotgun and Marathon dual shotguns.

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

The cheat weapons from mercenaries. The portable air strike was a great way to kill an entire screen and yourself if you weren't careful. The street sweeper was aptly named.

AA12 in Killing Floor
