Most rigged/overpowered weapon ever?

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Although you only have them for one mission the Titan's weapons in DoW:WA as they can nearly destory a Monolith in 1 hit.

Imagine if the whole thing was operational. There goes all the Monoliths in one shot.

Pretty much and that is also only the weapon acting at a fraction of its full capacity imagaine what it could do all together.

Although you only have them for one mission the Titan's weapons in DoW:WA as they can nearly destory a Monolith in 1 hit.

The P90 from CoD4 is vastly overpowered but then it is IW there needs to be a PPSH style overpowered sprayer in all of their games.

The R.Y.N.O.s from Rachet and Clank.

I don't really see the contrast between the P90 in Call of duty 4 and and one-shot-dead sniper rifle that can shoot through walls and auto find targets for you to one-shot-dead. Like if the M40 and the Barret .50 Cal had a child and it could do all of the above mentioned, put that in call of duty and you will understand why it is NOT a good idea to put the Farsight XR-20 in a match where there are other humans...

Well a weapon that require little to no aiming aother than the rough centre of the screen, a fairly healthy clip of ammo, very high spray, high damage and little to no reocil. Ye nothing over powered about that. Also the thread is just for overpowered weapons I wasn't comparing it to the Farsight. I am just saying it is overpowered especially with Stopping Power and Steady Aim which effectively kills the recoil at the hip.

I clearly see your point now, and while being someone who has been guilty of using the P90 and it's rediculous fire rate online, I still prefer the MP5 overall, in this context of overpowered weapons I do suppose the P90 has its place, but it's still way more balanced than some of the other suggestions that are popping up

Yes compared to some of the other entries here for overpowered weapon it is more balanced but it is still imba in CoD4 because IW couldn't balance a scale with no weights on it.

Owch, that was bit of a low blow xP I see your point, that being said there are quite a few other things in COD4 on the imbalaced side of things, one of which being nicknamed because of the certain skill level of people who are expected to use it. But, thats going a bit off topic I suppose. The shark gun made me laugh quite a bit, if only because I wasn't expecting it. xP

No one mentioned the Dark Energy Gravity gun in HL2 yet? You can easily pummel striders and gunships with that thing.

 

[Alex Sheppard]

Ha nice one, the rocket launcher is usually a dependable killer in all games xD

OT: The rail gun from Red Faction, you could see through walls with a rail gun!!!!

You should take a look at this if you think the rail gun was OP.

Farsight XR-20, and while this is shows how the sight can be a bit hard to use, it is still the most OP sniper I have ever seen in any game to date

m16 on cod4

No. P90 SMG. No recoil, high fire rate and all the damage you can't take.

As a primary on-line gamer, i have 2

#1 Magnum ammo on any gun in Battle field 2

#2 any shotgun-sniper rifle in modern warfare 2

How has noone mentioned the goddamn Kane from Mass Effect 2, it was a handheld nuke

 

[Grouchy Imp_v1legacy]

Doom's BFG kinda springs to mind....

And Master of Orion 2's Stellar Converter (ok it's not an fps game but it blows up planets!).

 

[danielsharpe1634]

How about the double MINIGUNS in the original Timesplitters? There's no legion of zombies that won't fall under a barrage of those.

Oh yeah, I forgot about those.

Hah, the only game that could throw realism out the window so far that you could wield and fire 2 miniguns while normal people would have trouble just lifting one, and suffer no speed penalty whatsoever!

Yeah, definitely the double miniguns. Nothing can withstand their barrage, and the thought that anyone could even lift them is complete ridiculous

 

[William Dickbringer]

the golden gun from golden eye 007

 

[Jackle_666]

Miniguns x2 Time Splittters 2

A highly accurate machine gun of rotating shotgun shells. Metal tubes of death they were.

How has no one mentioned the TACTICAL NUKE from Modern Warfare 2. Instant win bitches.

 

[Wooderon]

R.Y.N.O. from various Ratchet and Clank games. The thing is, it's supposed to be a broken weapon, a odd little condundrum.

 

[Darren20]

AWP, anyone?

That thing'll kill you with one shot no matter where you hit.

Ah the AWP, so many blindsided kills.

 

[Bonkekook]

TimeSplitters had a gun that could shoot through walls across the entire map, and I think there was only one character who was immune. Most people online wouldn't use it though because it was so cheap, and we soon learned to avoid the people that did.

Team fortress 2: the Critical rocket (Crocket) that beast can gib even an overhealed heavy.

A fully overhealed heavy can take a crit rocket to the face and live, only thing that can, there's even an achievement for it.

I'm curious to see what other people think is the most rediculously powerfull weapon in any game they have played.

For me it would have to be a tie between three guns, they are as follows:

For area of effect: The Genocide gun - Earth Defence force 2017 (125m diameter)

For damage: Chicago typewritter - Resident evil 4 (Infinity damage)

For overall rigged-ness and awesome-ness: The Farsight XR-20 - Perfect Dark
(Shoots through walls, instant kill, looks bad ass, auto-locks on to targets...)

For area of effect: The Genocide gun - Earth Defence force 2017 (125m diameter)

- I can't believe this was in the first post, pure awesome.

 

[Higurashi]

The M-920 Cain in Mass Effect 2, and The Massacre in Iji. Too bad you only get to use the latter against the final boss if you get it.

 

[TN II Alpharius]

Any shotgun in BF:BC2 they can be used as snipers.

This is indeed such an overpowered thing. Just putting the 12 gauge shells and magnum ammo on the shotgun and turns it into a sniper killer. Having the USAS-12 with these perks is deadly and most certainly scary to have 6 rounds going down the range.

AWP, anyone?

That thing'll kill you with one shot no matter where you hit.

Not in the leg, that takes you down to 17 HP I do believe.
