'''''The Last of Us''''' is an action-adventure survival horror game developed by Naughty Dog, creators of the Uncharted series. It features similar character movement through the environment and some weapons seem partially lifted from the Uncharted series. Set in a post-apocalyptic future with a lush, overgrown environment the characters must often use alternate routes to navigate the environment. Nearly every fence can be vaulted, every window climbed into and most doors can be opened.

It features similar character movement through the environment and some weapons seem partially lifted from the Uncharted series. Set in a post-apocalyptic future with a lush, overgrown environment the characters must often use alternate routes to navigate the environment, evading or fighting the mutated infected and hostile survivors.
  
Combat is slower in pace than most contemporary shooters. Many survivors lack firearms and resort to improvised melee weapons or bare hands, making the possession of firearms a powerful tool in combat. It only takes a few rounds to put down an assailant, something that also applies to the main character. Long arms are shown to be significantly more effective in all respects than handguns. A limited amount of ammunition can be carried for each weapon and holsters must be crafted to be able to carry a certain number of weapons and actively swap between them. Ammunition in general is only handed out when the player actively makes use of weapons and is running low.
+
Ammunition is scarce and the game places a emphasis on the careful use of firearms. Though handguns are favored by many characters for their portability, the ''Last of Us'' accurately depicts the significantly increased effect of long arms. Holsters must be crafted to be able to carry a certain number of weapons and actively swap between them. The title's multiplayer mode, 'Factions,' offers 4v4 gameplay similar to the campaign, with a metagame where the player maintains a survivor colony. Ammunition is limited and a small amount of weaponry can be brought into a game, with a scrap-collecting mechanic for acquiring powerful 'Purchaseable' weapons and creating improved armor.
 
 
In the multiplayer game mode 'Factions,' players can also use acquired parts to purchase ammunition and upgrades. Unlike many other games, they cannot pick up enemy weapons or change their equipment selection while still alive and the weapons carried must be carefully considered and bought with points beforehand. Most weapons spawn with the player and have a set amount of starting ammunition which can be increased with upgrades, but certain Purchaseable weapons must be bought during the game and ammunition never replenishes.

=Handguns=
Handguns are often found as primary weapons for main characters and enemies due to their compact nature. Many characters simply insert handguns into their waistbands or backpacks - proper holsters are a rare sight, though the player can craft one to allow fast switching between multiple handguns. In multiplayer, handguns tend to be free weapons that require no points to equip, and ammunition cost does not increase with each purchase like a long arm.

Ellie is occasionally seen using the [[Colt Defender]]. It is the first weapon available to Joel, and is implied to be his personal sidearm before the story. Note: It appears to be taken directly from [[Uncharted 2]]. However, the gun is now chambered in 9x19mm and simply called the "9mm Pistol." It generally takes roughly three or four shots to kill a human enemy and many more with body armor, but is still realistically lethal with a headshot.

In Factions multiplayer it takes five shots to the torso for a kill, but two headshots - same as the revolver. The 9mm requires no points to use and a suppressed variant can be equipped. Unlike most games, the suppressed variant has the exact same power and accuracy as the basic model. The suppressed model is standard for the 'Stealth' class preset.

==Taurus Model 66==
The [[Taurus Model 66]] is one of the most common weapons in The Last of Us and the first firearm to make an appearance in the game; implied to be Joel's personal firearm, he uses the revolver before giving it to his brother, Tommy during the prologue. Acquired early in the game, it's the second weapon available to the player and is frequently used by both enemies and allies. The Taurus is simply called the 'Revolver' in-game and is the standard handgun for moments where Joel is forced to use a handgun for story based reasons, and is the only weapon which receives infinite ammo at certain points. It is an effective weapon at all ranges, capable of putting down most unarmored assailants in two shots. Upgrades can increase firing and reload speed, but realistically capacity cannot be altered in campaign.

The [[Taurus Model 66]] is one of the most common weapons in The Last of Us. It's implied to be Joel's personal firearm during the prologue, where he uses it briefly before giving it to his brother. An identical weapon is found off a dead soldier outside the quarantine zone as the second firearm the player can use. Simply called the Revolver, it's more powerful than the 9mm pistol and is frequently used by both enemies and allies. It is the standard handgun for moments where Joel is forced to use a firearm for story based reasons and is the only weapon which receives infinite ammo at certain points.
  
 
The trigger is always seen to be in the single-action mode, although the gun is always fired double-action. When reloading, careful attention is put into each cartridge being inserted into the cylinder, but empties are never seen ejected. In early footage, the weapon was shown with a longer (likely four-inch) barrel, in contrast to the shorter barrel seen in the campaign as well as factions multiplayer. During the E3 2012 footage, Joel was seen to strip ammunition from revolvers found off dead enemies by opening the cylinder and punching the rounds - while in the final build of the game he simply takes the entire gun.

In Factions multiplayer, the revolver is one of the most common firearms to face, due to having a consistent three-shot down (or one headshot and one chest shot) and cheap ammunition. Since it requires no points to equip and works reasonably well at all ranges, some players will build classes with the Revolver as the only firearm. It can be upgraded to hold more ammunition, reload and fire faster. It is standard in the 'Sniper' and 'Support' class presets.

"El Diablo" is a scoped, long-barreled revolver found in the beginning of the fall section. It is found on the ground within a small shack and can be easily missed. Outfitted with a low-magnification optic, it can only carry a single shot without upgrades but can usually put down a human target in a single shot. It does not share ammunition with the other revolver and casings indicate a larger caliber. Ammunition for the weapon can commonly be found from its discovery in the fall season.  Soldiers at the end of the game also sometimes carry this weapon.

The [[Mossberg 500]] is commonly used by Joel, hunters, scavengers, Fireflies, and the military throughout the game. It can kill most enemies instantly at close range and has moderate effect at longer distances. When carried by enemies, it can easily kill Joel if he's caught in the open. It can be upgraded to carry extra ammunition, reload faster, recoil less and have a tighter pattern.

Recoil is realistically extremely harsh and it can only hold two rounds in its stock configuration. Found midway into the game, it is implied to be the personal weapon of 'Ish.' The player has multiple opportunities to retrieve the weapon if missed initially, and it is sporadically seen carried by enemies to the end of the game.

In multiplayer, the 'Shorty' can be equipped as a handgun-type weapon for one point. Its general stats can be upgraded, though it always remains a two-shot. Since both shots are needed to ensure a kill unless a lucky headshot is achieved, it can be a risky weapon to use. It comes standard in the 'Assault' class preset.

It is modified with an [[M4A1]]-style collapsible stock and converted to fully automatic fire. It is equipped with an underbarrel flashlight and an LMT rear sight. It is the last weapon that Joel acquires in the game and cannot be customized. It is a very accurate and high ROF weapon but as with most of the weapons in The Last of Us ammunition for it is scarce.

In multiplayer, the M16 is another purchaseable weapon, unlocked late in a player's progression. It has the exact same power as the 9mm pistol, meaning two headshots or five body shots will kill. Semi-automatic fire can be achieved by tapping the trigger but it does have a tendency to rapidly burn through ammunition. Standard for the 'Assault' class preset.

The [[Winchester Model 70]] is acquired by Joel early on in the game. When first acquired the weapon has a maximum shell capacity of one, forcing the player to rack the bolt back and re inserting a new bullet into the chamber after each shot. However confusingly when the magazine capacity is increased, the number of rounds inside the weapon increases, but the ROF changes from a bolt action sniper rifle to a semi-automatic sniper rifle. A scope can be added onto the weapon for increased zoom (of which the player can choose to use the third person perspective or optical zoom). This is also the first weapon that Ellie is given by Joel and is prominently used by her during the winter section.

It cannot be aimed without using the scope, which generates a glare visible to other players. Upgrades enhance magnification, scope-in time and reload speed, but capacity never increases.

Nice, but where's the trigger?

The Last of Us(2013)

The Last of Us is an action-adventure survival horror game developed by Naughty Dog, creators of the Uncharted series. It features similar character movement through the environment and some weapons seem partially lifted from the Uncharted series. Set in a post-apocalyptic future with a lush, overgrown environment the characters must often use alternate routes to navigate the environment, evading or fighting the mutated infected and hostile survivors.

Ammunition is scarce and the game places a emphasis on the careful use of firearms. Though handguns are favored by many characters for their portability, the Last of Us accurately depicts the significantly increased effect of long arms. Holsters must be crafted to be able to carry a certain number of weapons and actively swap between them. The title's multiplayer mode, 'Factions,' offers 4v4 gameplay similar to the campaign, with a metagame where the player maintains a survivor colony. Ammunition is limited and a small amount of weaponry can be brought into a game, with a scrap-collecting mechanic for acquiring powerful 'Purchaseable' weapons and creating improved armor.

The following weapons can be seen in the video game The Last of Us:


Handguns

Beretta 92FS Brigadier

A FEDRA soldier can be seen using one after Joel, Ellie, and Tess escape the quarantine zone.

A FDERA soldier holds the 92FS. Note the triangular projection on the slide confirming it as a Brigadier model, and the screw on the grip, distinguishing it from the Model 70.

Beretta Model 70

Ellie is given a Beretta Model 70 after a shootout with hunters. The player can use the weapon as Ellie during the winter levels and it is available in the 'Left Behind' DLC. It cannot be upgraded. As Ellie is younger, physically smaller and less experienced than Joel, the weapon is realistically shown to have a fair bit more recoil shot-to-shot. It has similar punch against enemies to the 9mm pistol, however.

Colt Defender

Ellie is occasionally seen using the Colt Defender. It is the first weapon available to Joel, and is implied to be his personal sidearm as a smuggler. The Defender is portrayed to be notably less powerful than the .357, taking three to four shots to down most assailants. It can be suppressed, though only in multiplayer. The hammer is never shown to be cocked and the player will always cycle the slide, which does not lock back when the magazine is expended.

Note: It appears to be taken directly from Uncharted 2. However, the gun is now chambered in 9x19mm and simply called the "9mm Pistol."

Taurus Model 66

The Taurus Model 66 is one of the most common weapons in The Last of Us. It's implied to be Joel's personal firearm during the prologue, where he uses it briefly before giving it to his brother. An identical weapon is found off a dead soldier outside the quarantine zone as the second firearm the player can use. Simply called the Revolver, it's more powerful than the 9mm pistol and is frequently used by both enemies and allies. It is the standard handgun for moments where Joel is forced to use a firearm for story based reasons and is the only weapon which receives infinite ammo at certain points.

The trigger is always seen to be in the single-action mode, although the gun is always fired double-action. When reloading, careful attention is put into each cartridge being inserted into the cylinder, but empties are never seen ejected. In early footage, the weapon was shown with a longer (likely four-inch) barrel, in contrast to the shorter barrel seen in the campaign as well as factions multiplayer. During the E3 2012 footage, Joel was seen to strip ammunition from revolvers found off dead enemies by opening the cylinder and punching the rounds - while in the final build of the game he simply takes the entire gun.

El Diablo

"El Diablo" is a scoped, long-barreled revolver found in the beginning of the fall section. It is found on the ground within a small shack and can be easily missed. Outfitted with a low-magnification optic, it can only carry a single shot without upgrades but can usually put down a human target in a single shot. It does not share ammunition with the other revolver and casings indicate a larger caliber. Ammunition for the weapon can commonly be found from its discovery in the fall season. Soldiers at the end of the game also sometimes carry this weapon.

"El Diablo" is shown as a top-break revolver like the Webley Revolver. It is a purchaseable in multiplayer, distinguished by an instant takedown with headshots.

Desert Eagle

The Grounded DLC added a Desert Eagle pistol to the multiplayer mode, called the 'Enforcer.' Its stopping power and rate of fire is between that of the 9mm pistol and Revolver, and it can be suppressed.

Shotguns

Mossberg 500

The Mossberg 500 is commonly used by Joel, hunters, scavengers, Fireflies, and the military throughout the game. The weapon is given to Joel by another survivor early in the game and is one of the few firearms he is seen to wield in cutscenes. When carried by enemies, it can easily kill Joel if he's caught in the open. The Mossberg is still portrayed as being slightly shorter-ranged than would be realistic; performing moderately at longer than room distances, while at close range it can dramatically dismember enemies. It is also a purchaseable in the multiplayer mode.

Shorty Shotgun

This compact shotgun appears vaguely similar to the 'Pistole' weapon of the Uncharted series. It's similar in size to a Serbu Super shorty, though semi-automatic and fed by a detachable box magazine similar to that on a Hawk detachable-magazine shotgun. Recoil is realistically extremely harsh and it has an abysmal range. It can only hold two rounds in its stock configuration. Found midway into the game, it is implied to be the personal weapon of 'Ish.' The player has multiple opportunities to retrieve the weapon if missed initially, and it is sporadically seen carried by enemies to the end of the game. It is classified as pistol-type weapon in the game and can replace the standard handguns in multiplayer.

Double Barrel Shotgun

A double-barrel shotgun is available as a purchaseable in multiplayer. It's been shortened and the grip is wrapped with electrical tape. It's portrayed as being similar to the Shorty Shotgun, taking two shots to put down a player even at point-blank range.

Rifles

M16A4

The M16A4 is the only assault rifle found in the game. It is seen in the first level as the standard rifle of the FEDRA soldiers and then at the end of the game equipped by the Fireflies. It is modified with an M4A1-style collapsible stock and converted to fully automatic fire. It is equipped with an underbarrel flashlight and an LMT rear sight. It is the last weapon that Joel acquires in the game and cannot be customized. It is a very accurate and high ROF weapon but as with most of the weapons in The Last of Us ammunition for it is scarce. It serves as a late-game purchaseable in MP.

Winchester Model 70

The Winchester Model 70 is acquired by Joel early on in the game. When first acquired the weapon has a maximum shell capacity of one, forcing the player to rack the bolt back and re inserting a new bullet into the chamber after each shot. However confusingly when the magazine capacity is increased, the number of rounds inside the weapon increases, but the ROF changes from a bolt action sniper rifle to a semi-automatic sniper rifle. A scope can be added onto the weapon for increased zoom (of which the player can choose to use the third person perspective or optical zoom). This is also the first weapon that Ellie is given by Joel and is prominently used by her during the winter section. It's a standard weapon unlocked early on in multiplayer, always scoped.

Military Sniper

The 'Military Sniper' is a bolt-action rifle used by an antagonistic survivor in the campaign and briefly by Joel in a set-piece event. It is shown to be bolt action and ammunition is unlimited. Its sight has two levels of magnification and it kills with a single shot. The weapon plays a more prominent role in multiplayer as one of the last purchaseable unlocks. Despite being the exact same rifle seen in the campaign and being reloaded like a bolt-action, it fires semi-automatically. Headshots will dramatically execute enemy players instead of simply dropping them.

Ruger Mini-14

The Ruger Mini-14 is used at one point by Firefly soldiers, a stainless model outfitted with a Butler Creek folding stock. It cannot be used by Joel. The 'Semi Auto Rifle' is a very common weapon in multiplayer, where it can also be suppressed.

Burst Rifle

A hybrid rifle is one of the long arms in the 'Factions' multiplayer mode. It has a magazine release and box somewhat resembling that of a FAL, has a side-folder skeleton stock and a short muzzle. It has a small capacity and fires in bursts. An update later added a fully-automatic version of this weapon with an AR-type carry handle and a larger magazine.

Galil

The 'Specter,' a 5.56 Galil with a suppressor is only available in multiplayer. It has a higher rate of fire than the other automatic weapons. It was added with the 'Grounded' DLC.

AK Variant

The 'Variable Rifle' appears to be a .308 AK-type rifle with a thumb-hole stock and wooden furniture. It was added in the Treacherous Territories DLC, exclusively for multiplayer.
