    One thing I never understood in Fallout 4 is why the energy pistols did more damage than their rifle varients when you have all of their respective perks.

      nothing about that game makes sense...
      all full auto does piss damage when firing speed isn;t what harms damage, it's accuracy
      i shit you not, if you take a MP5 put it on single fire it's accurate and does really good damage, put it on full auto and steady it, you can control it, do burst fire and it's still the exact same damage as semi auto, whoever programmed that is a moron
      guns were markedly better in F3 and some were full auto and did tremendous damage! again whoever programmed gun damage/stats in F4 was asleep at the wheel
      i could rant all day but this will be my repot lol

      How can your character feel the recoil of a .32 using power armor is also ludicrous, the recoil should be absolute zero even with the .50

      @JohnDoe-rj9cq 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +56

      Because the pistol variants are basically rifle variants. The crafting system in Fallout 4 allows certain weapons to benefit from both rifle perks and pistol perks simply by being stockless. Just like how explosive perks benefit certain special firearms. If you think about it energy weapons were meant to be "future" prewar tech that the BoS feels is too powerful for mankind to wield.
      The issue is more due to perk stacking than anything. If you think that's bad I've done melee builds that basically let you one shot behemoths with stock perks and no mods.

    I think the CO2 looking thing on the bottom of the 10mm pistol is a compensator weight that is supposed to "help" the upwards recoil of it. If you notice, it looks as if it can be moved back and forth for shooters that prefer a different center of gravity. since 10mm is a hard recoiling caliber and would also explain how it can be taken of for the lazer mod in NV.

      I’d say it’s more likely the N99 is a gas automatic. If that’s the case then the cylinder is probably the gas piston system that cycles the weapon. Why it is there doesn’t make a lot of sense but then a lot of the weapons designs in fallout are a bit janky.

    I think the cylinder on the bottom of the 10mm N99 pistol is some kind of inertial recoil reduction device- filled with fluid and a weight, when the pistol recoils back the weight slams forward to provide a counterforce. Probably explains why it doesn’t have recoil

    There’s something charming about how chonky the 10mm pistol is in fallout games, even when real 10mm handguns look far more like typical pistols you’d see in the real world. I think the chonk gives it character and all in all makes it fitting to be the most iconic gun in the series.

    Pistol scopes/lenses being attached be a frame mounted rail is actually a much more practical but old school method for dialing in a pistol sight and making follow up shots much faster. Rather than waiting for the slide to reciprocate before getting back on target like a slide mounted optic, a direct frame mount keeps the sight in the same spot every single time.

    For those who don't know, "Plinking" is a type of target shooting involving shooting at things like metal cans or beer bottles (think Sunny Smiles' tutorial in NV), and the name comes from the sound of the metal being hit by the bullet. .22LR is a common ammo choice for plinking, as well as other pistol calibers, alongside airsoft and air rifles.

      Piggybacking off your comment, the term plinking comes from AD Topperweins wife who went by the nickname Plinky and was onomatopoeia for the sound of a 22 hitting a tin can. Very literally the origin of the term and still used that way today to describe casual shooting at cans and such.

  • @pisacenere

    The 10mm pistol in Fallout 3 has a Inertia Piston at the very bottom, basically a heavy piece of metal with a spring that soaks recoil, in the real world the FK BRNO in 7.5mm has it under the barrel and not exposed and the Ar15 as it but for slowing down the bolt carrier but some products can reduce the recoil with a stiffer spring or heavy buffer

    • @KeterMalkuth
      @KeterMalkuth 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      The AR-15 buffer acts more like a deadblow hammer than anything. On the rearward travel the buffer adds more mass to reduce the cyclic speed, as you said, and on the return stroke it provides several small impacts to the bolt carrier to prevent it from bouncing out of battery. It doesn't necessarily act as a piston in any way.

    I like to think the little bottle thing on the N99 is an oil/tool bottle doubling as a compensator weight, reminiscent of the practice of keeping a maintenance kit in the buttstock of a rifle; the gun in lore is described as being an easily well maintained pistol by anyone with even just basic knowledge of firearms, so if it even comes with its own cleaning kit, that's a step in that direction.

      Nah, you're fine. The standard 10mm Pistol is absolutely great in New Vegas and can carry you all the way to mid-game pretty much by itself. That Gun and the 12.7mm Pistol (especially Li'l Devil) basically just serve as your "Next Level" when it comes to pistols in general; once the 10mm finally gets outclassed, you upgrade to something meaner :D

    I've always found it strange how 10mm usually deals less damage than .357 mag and .45 ACP in Fallout games when, by the numbers, 10mm when actually properly loaded will almost always output more energy on target than either round. The problem with 10mm in our real world is that most companies underload 10mm to be more comparable to .40 Smith & Wesson which is a much less potent round which was developed specifically to reduce the inherent kick of the 10mm round for Federal Law Enforcement because their agents couldn't qualify very well with the 10mm.

    Given the 10mm status as a general sidearm, and its relatively low damage, I think the round is not the 10mm Auto round (which is powerful and kicks). It was too strong for the FBI, so they went to a reduced velocity round, which was then adapted into the .40 S&W round, which is popular in police handguns. I think the 10mm round in game is in fact .40 S&W under a different name, essentially 10mm Short.

    I know a lot of people don't care for it, but the Fallout 3 and New Vegas 10mm pistol is an iconic design to me and will always have a special place in my heart. It's a shame to see what they did to it in Fallout 4.
    I also always assumed that the little "cO2" cylinder on the bottom was actually a laser light. But New Vegas proved me wrong, being that the laser removes the cylinder. So my best guess is that it's a gas or buffer tube to dampen recoil.

      While back in 2007 I did originally think the 10mm design was a bit too blocky and bulky, once I started playing Fallout 4 I immediately regretted that opinion.
      Sure, the shooting mechanics in Fallout 4 are better, but the actual gun designs themselves just look abysmal. Outside of a select few that were practically impossible to fuck up (the Deliverer is a good example) everything just looked overly-complicated for the sake of "FUTURE DESIGN!" or out-and-out *ugly* like the 3D model designers were cross-eyed at the time.

    I think the cylinder on the 10mm is an integrated gun maintenance or cleaning kit, with just enough room for a small bottle of gun oil or replacement parts. That would explain why it can be replaced with a laser sight without becoming less effective in combat. Some rifles have these in the stock but a handgun wouldn't have the space for that.

    In terms of the cylinder on the bottom of the FO3 10mm, the first think that came to mind was the stinger and its radon gas cartridges. Basically you pop a cartridge onto it, the gas immediately supercools the internals. While it wouldn’t require to be super cooled, maybe the 10m has something like that in lieu of an exchangeable barrel. Or, the more “realistic” option is potentially some pressurized cylinder to potentially contain some of the gas bleed off to help with recoil, sound suppression, and it stays contained in order to be used in assisting with cycling in more adverse conditions like clearing icing, mud, sand, or buildup since the gun is certainly designed to last the operator for very extended periods. (Kind of like the Offensive Handgun Weapon System program which spawned the MK23)

    The piston-thing on the 10mm pistol under the barrel was probably meant to imply that it had a gas-operated reloading mechanism (or at least the option for one). Automatic weapons often have such a system, using gas pressure from the gunpowder to power a reloading process, assisting or replacing the spring/lever system in semi-automatic pistols or the simple cylinder rotation in revolvers. Given that weapon designers in the Fallout universe seemed to be (shall we say) "compensating" in terms of gun size, a big, bulky system like that wouldn't have phased them at all.

    - The Crusader handgun was based on the 12.7mm pistol from FNV, not the N99 or 5.56 handgun. Look at the Crusader and .50AE side by side. See it?
    - Light in Darkness is actually based on the Colt Commander variant of the M1911, as observable by the officer-issue trench sights it uses, rather than regular iron-sights.
    - The film version of the 5.56 pistol, aka That Gun, is actually called the Pflager-Katsumata Model-D, or PKD, a joint German-Japanese handgun designed for police special-issue.

    I believe that the little cylinder on the bottom of the 10mm pistol is (meant to be) a laser sight. The Fallout world differs from ours with the creation (or failure to create in the case of the Fallout world) of the super conductor. The super conductor allowed for a far more compact way to conduct electricity. This is the in-lore reason why all of the technology is so bulky, they do not have the superconductors necessary to create the compact technology we have today. I'm assuming that due to this, the necessary size for a laser sight would increase dramatically and thus explaining the bulky add-on.

    my ONE guess for what the weird cylindrical thing on the front end of the N99 is that, maybe, it is actually some sort of pressurized gas canister, like the C02 cartridges you mentioned, and it, somehow, serves as some sort of backup for if the weapon doesn't cycle properly.
    the desert eagle, which the N99 seems to be at least partially based on, utilizes gas operation rather than blowback like most handguns do.
    so, i'm wondering, maybe with that in mind, there's some sort of linkage between the gas piston and the "C02 canister" that allows the operator to switch to the most wack-ass adverse gas setting i've ever conceived in case they're using underpressure ammo that may otherwise cause the weapon to not cycle? sort of like how some gas-operated guns have an adverse gas setting in case you're shooting the weapon with a suppressor, but... with underpowered ammo, i guess
    which would kind of work? at least in the sense that the weapon doesn't REQUIRE the canister be there in order to operate properly, assuming you're using standard ammunition and not underpressure ammo. cuz, if it is literally just a canister of C02, you're gonna need to replace it, especially if you're firing more than... i wanna say a mag or two? that thing is *not* big. so, it's gonna need to come off, and ideally, the gun doesn't need it to fire under normal circumstances, which would also explain why it gets removed and replaced with the laser sight. maybe it just slots into the N99's attachment system, and can instead be replaced with a laser or a flashlight if you're not planning on using underpressure ammo, or just hope that it'll cycle every time you fire it.
    the N99's design is totally wack, so that's pretty much all i've got as far as trying to make some sense of it goes lol

    In regards to the bulk of the 10mm of FO3/NV, it has the advantage that you could load the ammo hot and not have much in the way of recoil. Muzzle heavy with added weight below the barrel could help.
    Side note: a possible thing the cylinder at the front and bottom of the gun could be is a collapsible cleaning kit. I've seen cylinders that unscrew in half to reveal segments for a cleaning rod that then screw into part of the cylinder. A brass bristle brush or other tip is then screwed on at the end for cleaning after applying oil.

Depending on what retailer you got your copy of NV from, you got a different set of gear. This was part of the Classic Pack set of equipment, that included an armored Vault 13 suit (from the end of the F1), 50 10mm rounds, 5 stimpacks and a Vault 13 Flask. I believe that is supposed to imply the weathered 10mm traces back to Vault 13 as well, perhaps even the Vault Dweller themselves. I believe this set was from GameStop in the US.
