Oooh... I edited your poll to include the Hunting Rifle and M16 rather than 'rifle'



And then chose rifle

Pity there's neither a revolver nor a rocket launcher in L4D

M4, but its not like your able to choose the first time off. First part is shotgun, Uzi, something like that, then theres m4 and some other stuff, and last some other weapons when you get to tier 3. I'm not all that sure but it's something like this.

Y0u mean M16, Leroy? That's the closest to an M4 that L4D has...


And what tells you the weapon selection is like that? I was under the impression all the weapons were at each safe house and you got better versions out in the city/wilderness.

(i.e. automatic shotgun, dual wield pistols.)

Yeah thats what I meant. Theres like 3 or 4 tier levels, that when you get to the next one, you would be able to choose better weapons.

The scoped rifle isn't bolt action, so you don't have to worry about it.

There's more than one best/good weapon in the game.

It really depends on your circumstance.

The hunting rifle is, from the videos I've watched, one hit kill on normal infected, it has a good RoF and a decent clip size. Whereas the M16's clip will run out quickly leaving you exposed and isn't as good at range.

Technically only the M16A3 was fully automatic, and it's use was discontinued by the military, they now use the M16A4 and the M4
And law enforcement wouldn't be using the A3 either, they would also use the M4.
I am just curious where the hell the A3 came from since most M16 models are now semi/burst fire only.

And further more, how come there is only one model of pistol (that I have seen)
Where are the revolvers, the Magnums, the Desert Eagles, the Glocks and the Colts?
And no (apparent) Tactical Sniper Rifles either? If there are M16's just lying around, then there should be a few Law Enforcement grade sniper rifles too.
And no MP5s? Those are much more common in law enforcement then (cough) the M16A3.
Then again, magical Unicorns are more common with the police/Swat etc, than M16A3s.
And what about civilian weapons? There aren't just the same 4 or 5 types of weapons over and over again. Hell, the civilian population has a greater variety of firearms than our military
