QUAKE 4 WEAPONS MOD

First obtained in Recomposition Center.

However against bosses and single tough enemies, the Railgun is not very useful. Ammo is not particularly rare either, and in a pinch this weapon can be used to systematically take down groups of weak enemies. Most useful in long, narrow paths filled with enemies. It's slow firing, but high-damage a single headshot to a lot of enemies is enough to take them down. The Railgun is effectively your sniper rifle.

Penetration Mod: Increases Railgun base damage and enables shots to pass straight through enemies, damaging any enemies standing behind them.

Can zoom with this weapon using right-click.

However, be warned that ammo for the Rocket Launcher is quite rare. It's most useful against groups of tougher enemies and bosses, or against single tough enemies which you don't want to go to the hassle of killing using a less powerful weapon. Your arsenal will usually mean that your Rocket Launcher goes overlooked, but it is a very powerful weapon, especially after it gets its upgrade. Also, holding down right-click will fire a small green laser which the rockets will track.

Guiding Mod: Gives the Rocket Launcher a clip size of 3 - can now fire three rockets in quick succession (still reloads rocket-by-rocket).

First obtained in Strogg Medical Facilities.

In particular, this weapon is very effective against bosses and strong normal enemies. The nails' slow travel time makes this weapon less useful at long range, but at close range it is an ideal weapon against any enemy you face. It doesn't fire as fast but each nail does considerably more damage and with the homing nails makes it virtually impossible to miss. The Nailgun is essentially a closer-range more powerful version of the Machinegun. Nails will home in on any enemy in the reticle. Nail Seeker Mod: Holding right-click will go into a zoom mode.Firepower Mod: Nailgun fires 25% faster and holds two clips at a time - increasing total clip size to 100.First obtained in Perimeter Defence Station.Ammo however is not very common, so use it wisely. Its large blast radius also means that it can damage a lot of enemies for a large amount per shot. The Grenade Launcher can help with dealing with tricky-to-hit enemies that are behind corners or obscured partly by various objects. Fires a grenade in a parabolic arc which detonates after a set amount of time or on contact with an enemy.

This weapon works best against small groups of enemies which aren't particularly weak, and once the Bounce Mod is obtained, can allow you to damage enemies from behind a safe corner. However this means that it is very easy to get carried away and forget that it has limited ammo. The Hyperblaster is a very powerful weapon owing to its high damage-per-shot and rate of fire. Bounce Mod: Enables Hyperblaster shots to bounce off walls.Obtained in Operation: Last Hope.Īlso obtained early-on, this isn't as all-purpose as the Machinegun but is still very useful against crowds of weak enemies or single strong enemies that are a little too close for comfort. Clip Mod: Increases clip size to 10 and reloads in clips rather than individual shells.First obtained in Air Defense Trenches.You can fire to interrupt a reloading procedure. Fires normally, holding fire button will continue shooting.The zoom feature also allows it to double-up as a sniper rifle until you get the Railgun. Obtained early in the game and consistently useful throughout ammo for this weapon is usually plentiful and due to its rate of fire can deal a lot of damage accurately in a short amount of time. Extended Clip: Increases clip size to 80 (does not affect maximum ammo capacity).

Zoomed shots are more accurrate but are semi-auto. Only ever should be used as a last-resort or if you want to conserve ammo when fighting weaker enemies. Its charge-up shot is still pretty weak by comparison to most weapons, but it has unlimited ammo. You start off with this weapon - and this will be the only time you really use it.
