Identifications

What make you think that the in-game weapons have some real prototypes? As for to me, all these guns are quite generic. The pistol has some Beretta-style features but the designer could look on any Beretta, not exactly 90Two (the grip, for example, bears more resemblance with 92FS). The same can be said about other in-game firearms. Greg-Z (talk) 09:13, 7 December 2013 (EST)

Most of these IDs are a stretch, IMHO. --Funkychinaman (talk) 10:09, 7 December 2013 (EST)

Most of the weapons from what I've seen doesn't seemed to be based on any particular one gun Excalibur01 (talk) 14:40, 7 December 2013 (EST)

LoL the machine gun could be a 249 or anything of similar size and shape, and most of the guns are like that. --Iceman (talk) 14:42, 7 December 2013 (EST)

I thought the assault rifle is some kind of inspiration from the XM8 Excalibur01 (talk) 15:21, 7 December 2013 (EST)

It's basically just the shape of a rifle, you could see anything you wanted in it, I doubt very much its based on anything ,unless the artists specifically said what picture they were looking for when drawing the weapons and even then they would be a stretch. Perhaps they were drawing from basic understanding of how each weapon type must look. If anything only the MG could very unlikely be a 249 since its magazine fed. --Iceman (talk) 16:00, 7 December 2013 (EST)

I can see the rifle, actually, I think the shotgun is the biggest stretch. I don't know if perhaps the in-game models look different (these are inventory screen renders) and maybe the uploader is referring to what those look like, but at present this page is looking rather like "generic firearms that kind of look a bit like things."

I have played the game, they look the same if anything they look less like anything, since in 3D they are huge chunky things, that go with the overall design of the game. --Iceman (talk) 17:37, 7 December 2013 (EST)

So is this game eligible for a page? --Funkychinaman (talk) 00:55, 8 December 2013 (EST)

It's a pity but this page is a candidate for deletion. Greg-Z (talk) 01:02, 8 December 2013 (EST)
