Weapon Of The Week (RFG)



Weapon Of The Week is a feature which was originally introduced in Red Faction (Weapon Of The Week) and has been brought back to life in Red Faction: Guerrilla

Rocket Launcher
The Red Faction have modified this equipment to launch rocket-propelled grenades. It’ll be useful against vehicles, tanks, aircraft, and the occasional building. Just make sure there’s plenty of distance between you and your target when you pull the trigger.


 * Primary Attack: Fire Rocket
 * Melee Attack: Upward Bash
 * Pros: Large amount of destruction for a quick reloading weapon
 * Cons: Slow moving projectile
 * Recommendation: Get a few enemies to run into a building and then blow it to smithereens. Extremely effective against small to medium sized structures and vehicles.

Enforcer
The Enforcer uses heat-seeking ammo for superior accuracy. Shoot in the general direction of an enemy and the bullets will find them. The trade-off is in decreased damage, since some of the power behind the bullet is lost while it adjusts course.


 * Primary Attack: Automatic Fire
 * Melee Attack: Sideways Bash
 * Pros: Heat-seeking projectile that maneuvers in air towards a target.
 * Cons: Damage dealt is less than the standard Assault Rifle.
 * Recommendation: Got a few pesky enemies trying to run away from you? Fire a few bullets in their general direction and let the bullets get tired instead of you.

Assault Rifle
The Assault Rifle is designed to offer all the benefits of a full-length rifle in a compact design. It is capable of firing fully automatic fire and able to take down opponents quickly and effectively. This is the standard weapon issued to EDF soldiers.


 * Primary Attack: Automatic Fire
 * Melee Attack: Sideways Bash
 * Pros: Large clip size, fast reloads
 * Cons: Low level vehicle damage
 * Recommendation: Use this as your standard kill-all weaponry. Aim for the torso and head for maximum damage.
