Most hated weapon in a game

[Vrex360]

I think that looking through all of gaming history (I'm tempted to say 'burn out of existance all puny human weapons, let only Covenant weaponry reign supreme) I'd have to say the least appealing weapon has been for some time now the Halo 3 pistol. It looks like the sheer mindnumbing awesomeness of the first but it lacks the power of it and the scope, it also lacks the speed of Halo 2's pistol thus making it kind of the first weapon you get rid of as soon as you start campaign.
Just goes to show, if they are made by humans.... they typically suck.

Oh gee, I guess I ended up saying it anyway huh?

The basic pistol in killzone 2 that was a pain in the ass to get kills with but once you unlock the revolver it's all good.

The un-updated Sticky Launcher from the 360 version of Team Fortress 2 - huge ammo count, no damage nerf, can't be destroyed.

An absolute pain in the hole if you're playing as a Heavy. Crit Stickies are designed to make people rage.

OK, which one are we talking about, the Sticky Launcher or Grenade Launcher, they are two different things.

I personally despise anyone who uses the Scout sniper rifle in CS:S by choice OVER the AWP when they can afford it. Your not pro, your not cool, and your going to look really awesome when you get a chest shot and die because you were too pr0 to buy the AWP.

The Rivet gun in Bioshock 2.
I mean, sure the trap rivets are handy and all for adam gatherings but other than that i just don't like it.

The fact that you just said halo and playing in one sentence made me lose all faith in you..

If you don't like Halo, fine. That's fair enough. But don't you dare bring Halo-hate to this forum. We get enough of it from trolls, we don't need relatively established members spreading hate too. Either don't flame or go to a different site, please.

Anyway, I actually hate pistols in games. I'm probably the only person, but I really hate firing a pistol. Automatic and semi-automatic weapons are better, but even then it isn't down to fire rate. I just hate using a pistol because in most games, unless you're playing Halo and using a Magnum, pistols are pretty low-powered. I much prefer being sneaky and picking off my enemies with a sniper rifle, or in Halo, a Covenent Carbine (or in Gears of War, the Torque Bow). High-powered weapons are better in general, though things like sniper rifles take a lot of skill to use. Whereas the pistol is just really low-powered and pretty useless overall.

Makes a good club though .

The Sticky Launcher. It should be apparent, what with me saying "Sticky Launcher" in the OP.

The Soldier's new Direct Hit from TF2. Does loads of damage, can sometimes kill the lower-health classes and worst of all I'm useless with it.
Stop making me look bad!

I'd knock The Equalizer as well for having no penalty for use, but I got about 6 kills in a row with it yesterday, so I'd be a big, fat hypocrite.

 

[jaketheripper]

i dont have a weapon that i dont like, at least not that i can remember, but the most useless weapon is Garry's mod's suicide knife that you get from the website, you just cut your wrist and fall over dead, Lmao

 

[Fappy]

Halo 2 noobcombo... good times

 

[Brad Shepard]

I wouldent say hate, but i HATED the fact i continued to waist Hack rounds in bioshock two when i was trying to cycle through my weapons.

hey, once you upgrade it a bit it becomes really good, thats all i used in the final level.

Spoiler: Weapons that I use but hate

The Conduit-SMAW-Rocket Launchers are overpowered but this one has a huge blast radius
Halo Series-Needler-Fun weapon to use,but it's very easy to kill someone with it
Modern Warfare 2-Knife-Fun to kill someone with it, but they can do the same

Spoiler: Weapons I hate because I cannot use it

The Conduit-Usp pistol-Reminds me of the Halo pistol without the scope. So powerful and has a good range. I just wish I was better at it.
Modern Warfare 2-Model 1887-A musket gun with awesome range and power. The dual wielders pissed me off that I won't use it.
Halo 3-Spartan Laser-I got 3 kills with this weapon once and I thought I was unstoppable. Then I stopped playing for a while and picked it up only to see how bad I am with it

Spoiler: Weapons I hate because it's weak

The Conduit-MP5KA4-That gun is ridiculously weak.
Halo 2-The Magnum-Crappy range and power.
Modern Warfare 2-Assault rifles that you use. Don't tell me you got killed by someone you shot a lot of bullets only to see the killcam(if you play that mode) and see your bullets "Missing him" and he shoots you with 2-4 bullets.

 

[katsabas]

The Redeemer from Unreal Tournament. I hate that thing.

 

[A_Parked_Car]

The VTOL in the patched version of Crysis.

 

[Arashi500]

Magicarp. Splash... REALLY?!

And the knife in CoD. I don't think you'd be able to holster your weapon, draw your knife, and make a cut w/ it in a single second. If it was an already equipped weapon it would make more sense., Hell even Halo knew that.

 

[maninahat]

Desert Eagles and M-16s. They're about the most commonly occuring guns in shooters and they are incredibly boring. They are the only weapons less interesting than the AK47. At least the AK47 has a kind of real world badassary about it.

 

[silver wolf009]

I dispistes the tar 21 launcher on MW2, just plain overpowered.

 

[Shadowcat97]

Halo Melee (wtf, insta kills with the butt end of your weapon, yet 50 bazillion shots to mearly wound?)

to be fair your a super enhanced cyborg with shields and power armor you can lift ENTIRE TANKS by yourself its gonna hurt A LOT if you hit someone

 

[Wintermoot]

The whole dual shotgun thing in MW2 is just plain stupid. Even if you look past the whole "you wouldn't be able to aim for shit and you'd break something on the first shot" thing it's just a bad idea from a gameplay perspective.

In hardcore mode those things will kill even if you just point in the general direction of a guy. Now this is bad for any supposedly balanced multiplayer game but even more so for the insanely competitive environment of CoD:MW2 where you can't find a server full of like-minded people no matter how hard you try thanks to the matchmaking system.

I understand that some people would rather win by unfair means than create a fun environment but I do not wan't to play with these people and the game makes this rather hard for me.

Please understand that this is of course only my opinion - some people (idiots *grumble grumble*) find the dual shotgun gameplay fun and engaging.

for some people fun is pissing of other people
