However, in close-up battles the Gnasher is king. Far away, the Gnasher is pretty much useless, and even in mid-range gun fights you'll have difficulty putting anyone down for the count. The effectiveness of this shotgun depends entirely on the distance away from the enemy. Use the chainsaw only as a surprise attack. Be careful not to rely on the chainsaw, though-if you get shot even just once, you'll have to re-rev the engine before making a kill. The Lancer packs solid firepower and gives you an instant kill that's only a button press away. The biggest downside here is that the Hammerburst fires in burst shots, making it less effective as suppressive fire and more demanding of precision aiming.Įveryone's favorite machinegun-plus-chainsaw will be your primary weapon in both single- and multi-player events. The Hammerburst features a higher damage rating than the Lancer, and during the single-player campaign you're likely to find lots more ammo for the Hammerburst than for any other weapon.

Though it may not be as obviously menacing as the chainsaw-armed Lancer, this machinegun is arguably the better weapon. It's dangerous to try and use the Boltok in big firefights, but in one-on-one showdowns there's a use for the weapon.

While the Boltok requires even more reloading than the already unreliable Snub, this pistol does benefit from added firepower making it more possible to get quick headshot kills. You can use this zoom to get head shots which actually deal decent damage. While aiming, click the right analog stick in to zoom your view and shrink your aiming reticule, giving you a much more accurate shot. However, there are situations where the Snub comes into its own. Its power is lacking and it needs constant reloading.

In most situations, you'll want to ignore this little pistol.
