revolver/lever-action rimmed rounds) but of course between categories. This is not only true within a category (e.g.
What are different ammo subtypes that can be used that offer distinctly different properties from each other to allow for another axis of differentiation.ĭifferent ammo types have different variants. The unique cowboy repeater does have a scope, but it’s a side-mounted scope, like the one used by Clint Eastwood in The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. This is why the cowboy repeater and brush gun feature top eject: it prohibits the use top-mounted scopes, allowing the trail carbine to be modified in a way that the other two lever-actions cannot. If all weapons of a certain type can be modified in the same way, upgrading those weapons becomes less interesting, especially since we expect players to stick with thematically consistent weapons (not always, of course, but…). What are weapons that can be modified in distinctively different ways from each other to allow for orthogonal growth within a subtype of weapons (e.g. Service and battle rifles are based on distinctive historical weapons, the slim 9mm pistol is easy to distinguish from the bulky 10mm, and even the lever-actions are relatively easy to distinguish from the bolt-action and sniper rifles. What are weapons with distinctive/iconic looks that can stand out from each other?. 308, were also easy to use in multiple weapons. Western-style weapons make some of that easy since a lot of revolvers and lever-action rifles used the same rimmed ammo types. There are only a few weapons that use an ammo type that isn’t used elsewhere. What weapons share common ammunition types to avoid resource/loot problems?. That’s why you can use revolvers and lever action rifles from the first two hours (.357 Revolver and Cowboy Repeater) through the Battle of Hoover Dam (Hunting Revolver and Brush Gun). Supporting those concepts throughout the game necessitated an array of thematically appropriate equipment options that was available from the beginning and allowed for power growth through the end game. 
We can’t account for every type of character a player might imagine, but we knew a lot of people would want to be a) Mad Max b) post-apocalyptic cowboy/cowgirl c) wacky bazinga science person d) agro military operator e) sneakthief stealth murderer. What are players’ role-playing expectations within this setting and what weapons will help the expression of those roles?.In my mind, the 10mm pistol and SMG had to return, as did the minigun, sawed-off shotgun, flamer, and a few other choice weapon. What are iconic Fallout weapons that should return?.There were a few questions I asked for deciding what would get included and what would not: “ The process was iterative and went through a lot of revisions.
