Yes, you will notice that olympic shooters use pistols with tons of counterweights and whatnot, to hopefully blance out the innaccuracy that results from a small weapon and short barrel.

I think you should add the different recoil affects of each gun to this =3

I mean like people often go over unrealistic when carrying a Gatling gun and firing it at the same time... that thing would make you fall over and spin in circles at the same time... even if you did have super strength.

This is true. A lot of people think that super strength means super stability.

To use a somewhat bad example, In Tales of Symphonia, Presea Combatir used an axe as big as she was, but her swings were fairly limited. I figured this was because if she swung (or could swing) too hard, the axe would pick her up off the ground and both would go sailing in the direction of the swing.

On the other hand, the Incredible Hulk doesn't have as many problems throwing things because he is around 12 feet tall and weighs a few thousand pounds.

It's where we have the story Trope: Muscles are Meaningless

Yeah, it also brings to point. When Superman picks up a building, it should collapse under its own weight, now that it has no support. . . . or drive him into the street like a nail through a board.

Ooh ooh! Bro! Make a Gears of War RP! eek
PostPosted: Thu Oct 01, 2009 7:50 pm


uh... no. I don't know enough about the GoW universe to make an RP. It wouldn't appeal to too many people anyway. It's loaded with testosterone. You can be big powerful muscle man, or you can be big monstrous lizardman. No room for anime characters or super powers (Which is how it should be, but not what gaia wants.) But hell, I think I'll look for one.

STOP CALLING THEM CLIIIIIIIIIIIIPS ARRRRRRRRRRRRHGHGHG

Seriously, they're magazines. CLIPS load the MAGAZINES, and then the MAGAZINES feed the weapon.

XD that mistake is made too often. Also the mistake of the shape of bullets...

anyone notice that in movies and shows and games, bullets at always fired along with their casing, even though they SHOW the casing being ejected?

OH! You should note that casings for bullets can be refilled and reused =D that's a cool fact about guns!

They probably did that because bullets are near impossible to see otherwise. The projected bullet itself is like a quarter of the overall contraption. As a bad reference, even the old DOOM games referred to Magazines as Clips.

I'll take your word for it. I'm not sure every kind of casing can be refilled and reused. Though I know shotgun shells definitely can be reused. If you buy the empty shells, powder, and pellets separately you can save some cash for a little time spent to fill the shotgun shells yourself.

I believe the old DOOM games refered to them as clips because the games themselves were created and manufactured by a UK based company, i could be wrong but they are normally refered to as Clips over in the UK.

Great Guide!
PostPosted: Wed Dec 09, 2009 1:53 pm


Very good. Unfortunately, I doubt the people whom need to read this most will wind up looking for it. Guns are complex pieces of equipment, and not something anyone can walk up to and figure out.
