What's your favourite TNM weapon?

Post by nekdo »

Tittle sas it all!

Mine is the Emp Gun:

It is so usufull against bots, especially spiders, and it only takes one slot!
It also makes firewalls fall apart.

Btw I picked it up by acident when I ended up in WorldCorp after exploring the sewers for a while. It was after I killed almost everyone inside so I said to myself: "I can't go back without finding something worth coming here" so I did.

Btw only TNM weapons! No Deus Ex weapons like DTS or Scramble grenade!
List here(if you need one)

The Phat rifle for humour and death dealing. The Quad rocket launcher for the humour. I find it highly amusing being up high and firing at a target, and watch him change directions multiple times and the rocket doing the same.

Stungloves or Digital rhonins katana. I like the gloves better but the katana is a katana and gets a lot of pluses for that.

Vortex grenade!

Stun gloves and the EMP pistol are good too, but apart from those I think I mostly stuck with the regular DX weapons.

Phat-rifle for utility (makes non-lethal play way easier and PHAT rays piece Kylie's augs when explosive can't IIRC) but Quad Rocket Launcher for kicking serious arse. When fully upgraded and with max skill you have an automatic rocket launcher with big magazine capable of levelling bots, cameras, doors etc. and you can often still frisk bodies for items! With max skill the reload sounds can't even keep up with the animation! An EMP rocket can take out a Milbot in a single hit! A great way to tear loose if you ever get bored and decide to spawn something devestating.

The special weapons (AO's pistol etc.) are good too, escpecially as AO's pistol+scope looks very cool. Never got round to using Trest's pistols though; I'm guessiing you need some mods and high skill for them to be useful

Edit: EMP pistol is very useful too and very useful against spider-bots and hoverbots. It might even make bots too easy. It also looks good and even has a custom scope design (try putting one on and it changes like AO's pistol, but with a scope that fits the rest of the design).

The Holy Spork of Righteousness. I just love whipping it out and hearing "Halleluja!". It also reminds me of the Worms' holy grenade, which just adds to its comedic value.

Vortex Grenade and the EMP Pistol of course!
Can somebody tell me how I can get a custom avatar?

I'm pretty sure the sound is directly ripped from Worms 2 - it was something I requested, as I recall. The holy hand grenade in Worms 2 always gave me a good laugh, and it fits the Golden Spork so well.

My favourite weapon is Trestkon's pistols because all main characters should have a signature weapon, and as guns go, those pistols are pretty stylish, even if akimbo pistols have become sort of a cliché by now. The EMP pistol is a close second for being damn near indispensable.

Surely that sound must tip off guards a mile away. As worms weapons go I'd rather replace the ROFL laser with a Concrete Donkey to mash PDX into the ground.

Edit: Anyone remember that trick in the original worms where you could make the uzi/minigun fire bazooka shells? A weapon like that would be awesome (and incredibly impractical)!

Honestly, the three most brilliant weapons in video game history are (in order of awesomeness):
  1. A Ton of Dirt (Scorched Earth)
  2. Super Sheep (Worms 2)
  3. SBC Cannon (Serious Sam)

I kind of wish Yardbomb had a portal gun tucked away in his shop somewhere, after all we already have an AI with a bad attitude. I wonder if Narcissus and GLaDOS would hit it off...

Speaking of Yardbomb, is it normal not to be able to talk to nineball and the floating head guy on day 2? And is the only way to get stun gloves without pissing off Raving to wait until day 2 before breaking in? (sorry for going a little off topic there)

Edit: We desperately need a Narcissus "Still Alive" equivalent.

I have an ominous suspicion that Narcissus is busy doing unspeakable things to SHODAN, and vice versa. I'm pretty sure ShadowCode is more on GLaDOS's level - SHODAN would probably just consider him a pathetic fanboy, but GLaDOS at least shares his sense of humour.
Speaking of Yardbomb, is it normal not to be able to talk to nineball and the floating head guy on day 2?
Yeah. I'm not sure why we left them there in the first place, they don't actually have lines on Day 2. They'll be gone in version 1.0.4.

I don't remember exactly what ticks him off. But probably.

Actually, you can rob the storage area without raving going mad. Just don't disable(or trigger) the alarms.
