the most impractical weapon you have ever incountered in a videogame

[Legendary Alucard]

The Chinese Pistol in Fallout 3.

Has anyone ever used that piece of junk?

No, the .32 cal pistol is worse. Much worse. Maxes out at 4 DMG not the 5 DMG that the Chinese pistol has.

But that's not the worst, the worst is the Plasma Pistol from Halo. That thing is "shite on a crusty role" to quote Yahtzee out of context.

I hate the plasma pistol, mainly because people charge it around a corner, shoot you then punch you. its damn annoying.

Plasma Pistol also looks like sh** xD Your better off with the BB-Gun...

Scoot's scattergun. There's no way it could possibly function in real life. It's another prime example of Valve's weapon designers never having actually fired a weapon before.

Unrealistic, sure. Impractical? I take it you have never been shot by the scout: In game, its very practical. And as for Valve never fireing a Gun: Well, you really have to reason to think that, because how guns work in real life bears no relevance to what makes a game fun, particularly a game in TF2s style.

Oh I've been hit by plenty of scatterguns. None of 'em killed me unless I was already below 80HP or so. The FaN is way more dangerous.

Scoot's scattergun is a physical impossiblity. There's no way in hell it would work.

I don't think that anyone would disagree with you regarding its impossibility. But that has absolutely nothing to do with Valves knowledge of real weapons.

Spoiler

Ain't nobody gonna hold that thing, let alone SWING it, and you'd only have to take 3 steps to the left or right.

 

[agentspidersilk]

The flame thrower from alien swarm, yay for friendly fire

 

[Curtisthekiller]

the blade of healling
it heal the target like wtf?

Yeah, you couldn't even go Emo and cut yourself with it.

well you could...but then you'd just feel better.

ive got my share of experences but i can't say which was best so i'll list em all.

League of Legends (clash of fates): the champions Singed, Sona, Sivir, Vladimir, Twisted Fate and Kog'maw atack you with: a riot shield, a musical instrument, a huge suriken style bladed boomerang, Blood, Cards and Artillery vomit respectively. Also: Fiddlesticks attacks you with a murder of crows and Amumu 'the sad mummy' attacks you by flinging his badages at you and crying- i am not jokeing.

D&D: Duel weilded shields, Manacles, a mirror, a Ram, a ladder, Orc Double Axe, a Scythe, enchanted silk...yeah.

Modern D20: Someone managed to attack me with a backpack filled with chloroform, and by that i mean he layerd the inside with it and knocked me out in a grapple.

Personally:This is my favorate, in a game of D&D i was playing a fighter with jump skill through the roof (like 40+) i made my fighter backflip off of a tower, and threw my pet shocker lizard Winky through a window like a grenade before uttering the olny phrase that he would attack with "WINKY! Go Lesbian on em!"

Universal: The power of pacifism. Useless.

 

[Thurmer]

The Brick from Timesplitters 2.
Sure its useful in a scuffle when someones got you pinned down and youre blindly grabbing in the dust to try and find something to brain then with all in a well cliched fight scene but when the other guys are running around with miniguns and rocket launchers a brick isnt that helpful.

 

[John the Gamer]

Wrench from bioshock - there were plenty of sharp pointy pipes and tubes lying around.

 

[ICanBreakTheseCuffs]

yea,the most impractical weapon ever.I can't really put a finger on mine but arguably the carbine from halo.The needle rifle is better than this and when I was playing halo 3 I RARELY used it.

The needle rifle wasn't IN halo 3.

The carbine is the covenant equivalent as the battle rifle. Are you saying the battle rifle is useless?

I know the needle rifle wasn't in it halo 3 because I was wondering why they didn't think of it earlier and atleast the battle rifle has burst effect

 

[Chechosaurus]

The Plasma Rifle from Halo. It was decent when they introduced the Brute Plasma Rifle in Halo 2 and you could dual wield. Other than that, it is pretty poor I think and I never used it unless it was an emergency. That goes for most Covenant weapons (excluding Needle Rifle, Plasma Pistol, Carbine and Brute Shot)

 

[shadyh8er]

The Handcannon from Resident Evil 4. Sure it's powerful, but God help you if you miss with that thing. (Firing speed's a joke).

 

[Darkgoosey666]

Pretty much any weapon in Monster Hunter that is not a Sword and Shield.

What?? i disagree massively here. all the weapons in monster hunter are amazing except for hunting horns, which are shit.

 

[8-Bit Grin]

The Finger from Worms.

*Poke* 1 damage!

It wasn't meant to be used as a weapon.
If someone was on the edge of a cliff or near water, you poked them off.

On topic:
My most impractical weapon? Probably the Corn Cob from Monster Hunter for sheer silliness.

 

[ssgt splatter]

The knife in BFBC2, I stab and it dosent work half the time.

Oh, so it happens to you too? I hate that piece of steel.

 

[Hollock]

A bench; dead rising 2

I loved that weapon in the first one! It could take down 4 Zombies at once! Soooo I'm asuming it's nerfed in the sequel than?

Well... I always thought it was really slow and really impracticle, even in the first one. I'm sure if you liked it in the first one you'll like it in the 2nd. I just thought it was really impracticle.

 

[dragonslayer32]

Spray Paint in Dead Rising 2. All of my other weapons had died and I had one can of paint to get through the zombie horde.

 

[subject_87]

Jaaaaaarate!

What are you talking about? Jarate is awesome. Anyway, anything from the Final Fantasy series.

 

[ShakerSilver]

As of the TF2 Mann-conomy update,

Spoiler: HOLY MACKEREL!

I believe you mean a Healing Shiv [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HealingShiv].

 

[Aurora219]

The knife in BFBC2, I stab and it dosent work half the time.

Oh dear god yes - I always have to fire a sniper bullet into the corpse as well, as I'm actually surprised when the knife kills someone.

Which royally pisses me off, as I get knifed even AFTER the person is dead. They just kind of.. fall on me with their blade out after I've shot them in the head.

Frustrating as hell.
