I repeat, DO NOT steal this FAQ and claim it as your own. It is called
plagiarism. This is a quick way for you to lose some money. All weapons
are copyright of Electronic Arts.
(3)Introduction
In my FAQ I'm going to give the weapon descriptions as told by the game
book. I will tell you my opinion of the gun. Then I will then give you
the weapons damage, fire rate, and reload rate. Damage will be scored
out of 5. Fire rate and reload rate will be scored out of slow, decent
and fast. Also included it where to aim at on your enemies.
(4)Weapons
---Monkey Wrench---
"A plumber's best friend, the monkey wrench is surprisingly effective
in close combat and it essential for opening manhole covers."
My Opinion: Surprisingly the monkey wrench is a powerful weapon. A few
swings with this and the Russians will go down. The only downside is
that you have to be close to use it. Aim for the enemies chest area.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 4/5 |
|Fire Rate | Decent|
|Reload Rate| N/A |
|Clip Size | N/A |
|-----------|-------|
---Revolver---
"This six-shot revolver is an American classic that packs a sizeable
wallop.
My Opinion: More powerful than the pistol but the revolver lacks in
clip size compared to the pistol. I wouldn't recommend this over the
pistol due to the clip size. Aim for the enemies chest area.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 3/5 |
|Fire Rate | Decent|
|Reload Rate| Slow |
|Clip Size | 6 |
|-----------|-------|
---Pistol---
"The Soviet standard sidearm fires 17 semi-automatic rounds per clip."
My Opinion: I prefer the pistol over the revolver due to how much
larger a clip it has. The damage is not as good but if you can go for
headshots you won't have a problem. Aim for the enemies head.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 2/5 |
|Fire Rate | Fast |
|Reload Rate| Fast |
|Clip Size | 17 |
|-----------|-------|
---Shotgun---
"This semi-auto shotgun it a close-range weapon that spreads it's blast
over a wide area. The magazine holds 8 shells."
My Opinion: The shotgun is powerful at close range. Don't bother using
it from far away because you won't hit anything. It can kill
adversaries in one hit if your close enough. Just remember, the closer
you are the more damage you do. Aim for the enemies chest area.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 4/5 |
|Fire Rate | Decent|
|Reload Rate| Slow |
|Clip Size | 8 |
|-----------|-------|
---Assault Rifle---
"The most commonly used rifle in the Red Army. This basic but effective
weapon holds 30 shots and does the job in most firefights."
My Opinion: The assault rifle used is similar to a modern AK-74, which
replaced the AK-47 before the fall of the USSR. You may also notice
that the AK-47 looks like the CV-47, the Chinese licensed version of
the AK-47. You will be using the assault rifle a lot since that's what
most of the Soviet's use during the course of the game. It's a good
overall gun to use. Aim for the enemies head.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 4/5 |
|Fire Rate | Decent|
|Reload Rate| Fast |
|Clip Size | 30 |
|-----------|-------|
---SMG---
"The sub machine gun used by the Soviet Special Forces fires it's 40
round clip in the blink of an eye. Light and fast, this weapon is
inaccurate but devastating.
My Opinion: The SMG is a good primary weapon to use if you don't like
the assault rifle. Extremely fast and powerful, it also boasts a fairly
big clip. However you will have to get close to use it because it is
terribly inaccurate. Aim for the enemies chest.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | Fast |
|Reload Rate| Fast |
|Clip Size | 40 |
|-----------|-------|
---Sniper Rifle---
"Accuracy and power define the 7.62 mm Red Army sniper rifle. This
weapon is equipped with a telescopic zoom that can zero in on human
targets several blocks away.
My Opinion: Find a high vantage point and use the sniper rifles scope
to stay out of danger. It's your fault if you miss a shot because the
sniper rifle is deadly accurate. Never use it close up during a fire
fight and always make sure you have a back up weapon. Aim for the
enemies head.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | Slow |
|Reload Rate| Slow |
|Clip Size | 7 |
|-----------|-------|
---Molotov Cocktail---
"A crude incendiary weapon consisting of a glass bottle filled with
flammable liquid, usually gasoline, and a rag stuffed in the mouth of
the bottle. The rag is lit before throwing the bottle at the target.
The bottle shatters on impact, spilling the burning liquid over the
target."
My Opinion: Very dangerous, and it can even hurt you if you are caught
in the blast radius. Keep your distance and throw it. It's very
powerful and will set foe's on fire. Toss a few where enemies are
grouped together. If possible get up high before you can throw it since
it goes in an arc. Aim for the enemies feet.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | Decent|
|Reload Rate| N/A |
|Clip Size | N/A |
|-----------|-------|
---Fragmentation Grenade---
"A simple but deadly device, the fragmentation grenade consists of a
cast iron ball packed with black gunpowder. A short fuse it activated
by pulling the pin before throwing the grenade. The resulting explosion
hurls shreds of hot iron in every direction."
My Opinion: Equally as deadly as the molotov cocktail. Be sure not to
be caught in the blast radius. Anything near it when it explodes will
be hit with shrapnel. The fragmentation grenade is even capable of
blowing up enemies into the air. As with the Molotov, use the
fragmentation grenade on bunched up enemies and get a high vantage
point if possible due to arcing when thrown. Aim for the enemies feet.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | Decent|
|Reload Rate| N/A |
|Clip Size | N/A |
|-----------|-------|
---C4 Plastic Explosives---
"This innocent looking stuff, similar to the appearance of gray
modeling clay, packs enough punch to destroy entire buildings. C4 is
highly prized and can be hard to obtain."
My Opinion: You can't use the C4 when you want to, only on mission
objectives you have to blow up. Be sure to be far away when this stuff
goes off. If caught in the blast you will take damage or die.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | N/A |
|Reload Rate| N/A |
|Clip Size | N/A |
|-----------|-------|
---Mounted Machine Gun---
"The Red Army machine gun is a great weapon-if standing behind it. It
provides constant long range area fire while partially shielding the
operator."
My Opinion: Grab this bad boy when you get the chance. There are 2
version of this weapon, mounted and un-mounted. You can find this in a
bunker or some of the heavily armored Soviets carry it. Both act the
same except one is moveable. The machine gun can inflict heavy damage
and has a big clip but is inaccurate and slows you down. Use it to take
out groups of enemies. Aim for the enemies chest.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | Fast |
|Reload Rate| Slow |
|Clip Size | N/A |
|-----------|-------|
---Rocket Launcher---
"The RPG 7V grenade launcher is no peashooter. This unwieldy weapon is
heavy, ugly and inaccurate, but it makes up for all it's shortcomings
with one redeeming feature: the ability to penetrate armor."
My Opinion: Just like the machine gun, pick up the RPG whenever you
can. The RPG shoots basically grenades except they are propelled and
can go farther than you can throw a grenade. Use it to take out groups
of enemies. Aim for the enemies feet due to splash damage.
|-----------|-------|
|Damage | 5/5 |
|Fire Rate | Slow |
|Reload Rate| Slow |
|Clip Size | 1 |
