Weapons in GTA 2: Difference between revisions

== Weapons carried over from GTA1 ==

|Essentially consisting of punches that temporarily incapacitate a target, melee attacks are virtually ineffective in killing people.

|As is the case with GTA1, the Pistol is a firearm that fires a small number of bullets at a time and is considered the weakest available weapon in the game.

|A firearm that fires a rapid succession of bullets, faster than the Pistol. However, the weapon's bullet damage is only half of that of the Pistol.

|A [[fire]]-based weapon that releases a stream of flames, burning people and similarly damaging vehicles.

|A rocket-propelled grenade launcher that fires rockets designed to explode on impact, generating additional splash damaged in its vicinity.

== Weapons introduced in GTA2 ==

|Basically a pair of Pistols, allowing the player to fire double the number of bullets at a time in a V formation.

|A Machine Gun with a suppressor, designed not to attract attention from pedestrians, gang members and the police when fired.

|A firearm more suited for close quarter combat, the Shotgun shoot pellets that disperses as it travels further, reducing its effectiveness with increased distance.

|A futuristic weapon designed to fire bolts of electricity at a target. Unusually, the player must continue to fire the gun at a target for two second to kill him, or he will escape unharmed. The weapon is also weak in damaging vehicles.

|A thrown weapon that functions similarly as the Grenade but explodes at impact. The Molotov Cocktail is notably effective in destroying Tanks.

|A thrown weapon designed to explode seconds after the player tosses it, its explosion equivalent to that of the Rocket Launcher.

|Proximity mines designed to be dropped from the player's car. The mine will detonate when any vehicle is in contact, destroying it in the resulting explosion. The Mine is suited for evasive or offensive missions.

|Vehicle mounted oil tanks designed to dump a trail of slippery oil behind the player's vehicle. Any vehicle in contact with the oil slick will evidently lose control, making the upgrade ideal for evasions.

|An explosive device installed in any vehicle. The bomb may activated at the player's digression and is programmed to detonate 5 second after the bomb is primed by the player (while in the vehicle). The ensuing explosion's splash damage may destroy surrounding vehicles, including a [[Tank]] (which would otherwise be resistant to explosions).

|Essentially two Machine Guns that simultaneously fire two streams of bullets from the front of the player's vehicle, ideal for destroying vehicles in a chase.

|A mounted gun on an [[Armed Land Roamer]], shooting only one stream of bullets as opposed to two on conventional vehicle machine guns. Each Armed Land Roamer provides 20 units of Machine Gun ammunition.

|A water cannon found only on a [[Fire Truck]]. The cannon is capable of pushing people back, killing them eventually, but is very weak in this regard.

|A flamethrower mounted on a Fire Truck during the "[[Fire Truck Fun!]]" rampage. As the weapon is exclusive to the rampage, it has unlimited ammunition.

|A Tank-mounted rocket launcher that passes as the Tank's turret. The Tank's Rocket Launcher functions similarly as the conventional Rocket Launcher, firing projectiles that explode on impact with any object or person.

|A electric-based melee weapon baton that does not cause damage to pedestrians and cars. It can still be used for script mods. It fires a bullet wich forms an electrical arc from the player to the other player/pedestrian. If a player is hit with the bullet he can not run anymore, only walk like a normal pedestrian, but can still control the character.

|A vehicle bomb that explodes instantly when the button is pushed
