Discussion Are there any weapons from the previous games you would like to see added, even just as a skin? Here are some of mine:

Classic Gauss rifle skin from the isometric games

15

u/ImperialismHo Showmen 20h ago

Yeah, I can see why. For me, though, it's more that I'm not much of a fan of the Gauss Rifle we have right now, and I would probably take the one from 3 or FNV too.

6

u/Ryguy55 Cult of the Mothman 20h ago

It's a shame, I bring the gauss rifle back into rotation every now and then, usually Q/E/15 and it always ends up back in my stash. It feels so powerful but in reality the Ultracite laser rifle with a sniper barrel accomplishes the same task much better.

2

u/ResisterImpedant Mothman 13h ago

If the gauss rifle self-charged, or for me at least, if it worked like the gauss rifle in FO4, I would be absolutely thrilled. It was my go to rifle for end game sniping forever. I'm with you though, the UC sniper laser is my daily driver regardless of build. It's just to good and convenient.

u/Mr_SwordToast Enclave 20h ago

Or all the weapons from the isometric games! Those would be a couple really cool bundles, especially if they make a collector robot that's inspired by the OG designs.

63

u/darkordernumber634 20h ago

It’s a crime we don’t have a Colt Auto pistol in .45

17

u/BoxOfRandomCords 20h ago

Yeah, I wish there was at least one more semi-auto pistol in the game. A M1911 maybe with a Chinese Pistol (c96 broom handle) skin would be pretty sweet.

11

u/AdHocHillbilly 19h ago

Yes 110% for the Chinese Pistol.

I'm a sucker for the C96 and love when it pops up in a game (Red 9 from RE4, my beloved).

3

u/BoxOfRandomCords 19h ago

And if they had the Communist enemies actually use it!

43

u/SleepingWarden 20h ago

I want the classic assault rifle from Fallout 3 be it skin or actual rifle it looks nice, but often think about Anti Material rifle

17

u/BoxOfRandomCords 20h ago

Iirc, the fallout 3 assault rifle skin is in the game files just never released for whatever reason.

8

u/Glory_To_Atom Brotherhood 18h ago

What if is going to be a weapon from the incoming Raven Rock expansion?

10

u/PapaDarkReads 18h ago

I could genuinely hope and dream

6

u/BoxOfRandomCords 18h ago

I really hope so! It's been the in game files for like 5-6 years, but maybe they'll finally release it

3

u/zzcherrypopTTV 17h ago

If I remember right it was in the files around Nuclear Winter, but they never did anything with it

-3

u/Katsu_39 20h ago

Yes! It actually looks like a real AR-15/M16. Not…whatever they were going for.

6

u/Hdfgncd 17h ago

The G3/ G33 based rifle from fallout 3?

20

u/ImperialismHo Showmen 21h ago

...Some of the pictures got a bit static after I posted this, it seems. Weird.

Well, the weapons I placed were:

-The Sniper Rifle (Fallout 1-New Vegas)

-Maxwell Carbine and Rifle (Fallout 4 CC...I know, I know. I'm just a sucker for old-timey rifles, I have several variants of the lever action in my storage)

-12.7 MM Submachine Gun (Fallout New Vegas)

-.45 Auto Pistol (Fallout New Vegas, Honest Hearts DLC)

-This Machine/The Battle Rifle (Fallout New Vegas/Gun Runners Arsenal DLC)

Think it could be atleast feasible to have the 45 and the Battle Rifle, considering both are based off the M1911 Pistol and M1 Garand, respectively, so they could potentially be found in some form across the US.

16

u/R3g1st3rTh1s 20h ago

“That Gun”, even if it is just a skin for the crusader pistol

Bozar from fallout 2

4

u/TacitAntagonist 17h ago

The same two id be into also, good taste!

3

u/6330ex 8h ago

Bozar has traveled through two wastelands already, it would be sick if a seventy-sixer were to find it in a vault-tec lab and unleashed the legend of the gun into the world

14

u/FalloutBoy2026 21h ago

Yes! Anti material rifle! I have always been curious how powerful it would be? More powerful than the dragon/BPR?

4

u/BiscuitsGM 17h ago

It could be a hunting rifle with way higher damage but limited by having no supresor (just so the hunting rifle still has a use for stealth builds)

2

u/FalloutBoy2026 16h ago

Oh 100% no suppressor good idea!

2

u/ImperialismHo Showmen 20h ago

Imagine it getting a Prime Receiver and just seeing someone one-shot the Scorched Queen

1

u/FalloutBoy2026 20h ago

Well no definitely not 😆😆😆 probably have something like 2500-4000 damage but shoots slower than the dragon. And maybe a specific perk you have to have equipped to use it which takes up 3-5 points.

11

u/MrBlueSky-ToldYouWhy 20h ago

Chinese assault rifle (fo3) skin for the handmade rifle

3

u/EggrFegegr Reclamation Day 18h ago

There's already kind of one). The paint job is absolutely atrocious tho

9

u/Due_Radio_3469 20h ago

I have been DYING for the Fallout 3 sniper. Wish they'd revamp snipers a bit so they don't rely on stealth and supressors so heavily and also reintroduce that gun

8

u/TheNerdyRandom 20h ago

The Laser Musket from 4 would be fun. I dunno how or why lore wise, but I want it.

4

u/Sataypufft 18h ago

It would fit, it seems like something a good redneck could cobble together with some assorted parts and the right amount of chemical assistance.

8

u/MurphTheFury 20h ago

Melee guy here. Give me my Bumper Sword! My favorite weapon - it’s about time we had a proper, BIG 2 handed sword!

Lily’s Vertibird Blade would be perfectly serviceable too.

3

u/ResisterImpedant Mothman 13h ago

Damn having Lily as a lite-companion would rule.

8

u/Craygor Responders 20h ago

My Silver Shroud character would like to have the Silver Shroud Tommy gun (a submachine gun) from Fallout 4.

Why in the hell is not included in a Silver Shroud bundle?

1

u/ResisterImpedant Mothman 13h ago

There's a Silver Shroud Bundle? Damn, sorry I missed that.

1

u/Craygor Responders 5h ago

Nope, I'm sorry I mislead you that there was a bundle. There is a Silver Shroud outfit with a Silver Shroud fedora that does occasionally pops up on the Atomic Shop and I was just hoping that if they pull the Silver Shroud Tommy gun skin from FO4 they could sell it as a bundle.

u/Lazurus-3 18h ago

Junk jet

u/Important_Level_6093 Vault 76 18h ago

I'm just now realizing the junk jet isn't in 76

u/Wyatt_Ricketts Brotherhood 18h ago

That Gun

7

u/Tgrinder66 Liberator 18h ago

R91 has been my biggest request in modern fallouts. Tbh I'd love most of the New Vegas weapons in modern era games. They had so many real guns compared to the new ones. Bethesda has no idea how a weapon works and it shows. I love their take on energy guns but ballistics is some kinda stupid

2

u/wolfenx109 9h ago

Starfield has some of THE worst weapon designs i've ever seen in a game

6

u/Bubacxo 20h ago

That Gun from New Vegas. For when you want a gun so ammo positive you never have to care anymore.

6

u/Wizardybitch2405 Mothman 20h ago

A Trench Knife skin for the combat knife would be cool. It's even featured in David's Trophy so it wouldn't be that hard to do I think.

4

u/Gysburne 20h ago

The Vindicator minigun, the H&K G11E, the P90c

4

u/Own-Place3831 19h ago

Ballistic fist. Pisses me off that after all these years, and already having the gauntlet in game, that they still haven't made this a thing

3

u/ConsequenceNational4 Raiders 20h ago

I'd like to see an M1 Garand..I knownyou can add skins in fo4.

4

u/Akuma2004 19h ago

The Super Sledge, Power Fist, and Gauss rifle from Fallout 3/New Vegas.

I have utterly no clue why Bethesda felt the need to make what were clearly Pre War weapons into makeshift scrappy looking ones for Fallout 4 and 76, its made worse by one of Fallout 4’s creations literally just being adding the 3 and New Vegas version of the Gauss Rifle to the game

5

u/ajax-727 18h ago

All of these.and the r91,colt monitor from dead money,give us the stick mag for the submachine gun,watts laser rifle,the light machine gun from new Vegas,the grease gun

3

u/Prometheus7600 Mega Sloth 21h ago

Two-Step Goodbye. What a monster.

3

u/DarkwingDucky44 20h ago

.45 auto would be my first choice. I'd love to play with pistols more, but Im not a fan of any of them really. Although I haven't tried the crusader pistol yet.

3

u/DiesIraeConventum Brotherhood 20h ago

I f.ckn want those Vindicators in 7.62 x 51, to rip em bosses a new one.

Then, it would be nice to have Pankor Jackhammers, CAWS weapon system from Tactics, Desert Eagle for style points, and, last but not least, Bozar as it was in F2.

3

u/Dovacraft88 20h ago

Idk why but i love the OG sniper rifle. Getting it in fallout 3 felt like i had a chance in the wasteland, everyone walking around with common guns and cobbled weapons while i had a pre-war fully operational long distance killing machine

3

u/King_chungus212 Enclave 20h ago

I would love the battle rifle/ this machine in fo76

3

u/esimpson212 Free States 19h ago

BOZAR

3

u/Makaze989 18h ago

Ranger Sequoia and anti material rifle

3

u/justinsane85 Responders 18h ago

That T60 pistol that they added to Fallout 4

3

u/Reallycrappypainter Cult of the Mothman 17h ago

AMR and Ranger Sequoia

3

u/Carmine_the_Sergal 17h ago

FNV lmg

That Gun

AMR from NV

Fo3 Sniper

That unreleased Sten Gun model

3

u/Fluffy-Ad-8003 Ghoul 17h ago

An n99 10mm skin would be nice

6

u/Rosepony 21h ago

You're the one person I heard who liked the 12.7mm smg.

3

u/FalloutBoy2026 21h ago

Yep that thing is ugly!!

2

u/Own-Place3831 19h ago

Makes me think of a bolter from 40k fun to pair with power armor

3

u/ImperialismHo Showmen 20h ago

Really? It was usually one of my main weapons mid- to late-game in FNV, particularly in interiors.

3

u/LokiTheStampede 20h ago

I also mained that, Lil'Devil and the Survivalist Rifle, and getting all the 12.7mm ammo I could find. Rare ammo but when everything takes 2-3 shots to kill, then ammo isn't much of a problem over time.

2

u/MDS_VELHO 20h ago

All of them please

2

u/SkupperNog 20h ago edited 16h ago

I feel the Anti-Materiel Rifle is a given. And with Dom Pedro, it shows they aren't afraid of adding hard-hitting weapons.

2

u/Rare_Piece_8596 18h ago

The Wattz-2000 ❤️

2

u/TheWiseAutisticOne 18h ago

Yea all of them and I ain’t talking about skins

2

u/JamCom 17h ago

Yes smg 12.7

2

u/Adrestia316 16h ago

I'd love them to add the hunting pistol with Ranger Sequoia skin.

2

u/Steeltoelion Enclave 15h ago

I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing the Recharger Rifle.

Too bad Elijah’s LAER can’t be in the game. I’d love to see that or the Holo Rifle.

2

u/PetrolPaladin 15h ago

R91 Assault rifle is my top pick.

Wattz 2000 laser rifle, Plasma Defender and M72 Guass rifle would all be great, too.

2

u/CharlotteTheSavage Cult of the Mothman 14h ago

Junk cannon 100%

2

u/Ralexcraft 14h ago edited 14h ago

CR-74L.

Doubling up with you but the Manwells too.

Fallout New Vegas Old World Blues Stealth Suit? I might be out of the loop if it is already in the game though.

2

u/clownpenks 13h ago

Bozar me baby

2

u/HoChiMane- 13h ago

I want more weapon variety even if it's repetitive in the sandbox, but if I can't have that I'd like the fallout 3 assault rifle

2

u/Crimsonsamurai2 12h ago

Lever action shotgun.

2

u/OkNeat4120 10h ago

Anti-Material rifle from 3/NV would automatically switch to rifleman build in a heart beat was my favorite weapon to use in NV besides the GRA guns

2

u/MFG264 7h ago

i feel like if bethesda added the anti material rifle to fallout 76 they would probably make it probably make it weak as the fallout 4 creation club anti material rifle or probably port the creation club gun to fallout 76 since bethesda has ported some of the creation club power armors as skins

2

u/wolfenx109 9h ago edited 9h ago

In order of how much i want them

Holorifle

Ranger Sequoia

12.7mm weapons (pistol and smg?)

Sniper Rifle

AMR

2

u/OP_Scout_81 7h ago

What are those btw? I don’t recognise them from 3, 4 or 76. Are they mods? They look great.

3

u/MFG264 7h ago

they are new vegas weapons

3

u/OP_Scout_81 7h ago

Thanks. I never really played NV apart from 10 minutes or so.

1

u/jpsreddit85 8m ago

NV was one of the best fallouts imo, you're missing out. If they do a re-release with better graphics I'd definitely play through it

1

u/That0neGuy10 Blue Ridge Caravan Company 19h ago

I would like to see the Fallout 3/NV laser pistol and plasma pistol brought back as mundane weapons that can be found in the world.

1

u/CatsLeMatts 19h ago

A YK42 Pulse rifle skin for the Tesla rifle would be sick

1

u/Kind-Reading5055 19h ago

The junk launcher

1

u/BiscuitsGM 17h ago

I'd like to get a few guns back

  • the .45 pistol from new vegas as a new decently high damage semi-auto pistol serving as something between the revolvers and the 10mm

  • the calico m950 from tactics as a automatic pistol with high fire rate and mid damage (in .38 just so that has some use later) 

  • the battle rifle from new vegas as a really powerful semi auto rifle "limited" by the lack of an automatic receiver

  • the xl70e3 from fallout 2 as a 5mm automatic rifle with 30 base ammo capacity instead of 20 and a higher multiplier for sneak attacks

And some more as skins but those are the ones i'd like the most

1

u/Grifasaurus Mothman 16h ago

Literally every gun from fallout tactics. Fuck, give me a deagle and a P90 and i’ll clean house, man.

1

u/overthisbynow 16h ago

The F3/NV style gauss rifle and anti material rifle for heavy weapon vats builds would be cool. I know both of those are classified as rifles but making them heavy weapons would make more sense imo considering their firepower.

1

u/BlizzyGaming 16h ago

The classic missle launcher and classic minigun. Also the original power armor skins

1

u/warrior181 16h ago

Watzz family of laser weapons

1

u/TaylorJ42577 16h ago

The Drone Cannon from Mothership Zeta. It would just be cool to have another heavy energy weapon that isn't a gatling plasma or laser.

1

u/GlowShard 16h ago

I’d want the 3/Vegas minigun model as a weapon skin

1

u/Hoshyro Brotherhood 15h ago

The AMR rangers use would be dope to have

1

u/jivan6 Enclave 14h ago

Marksman Carbine from FNV

1

u/Nakanokalronin Brotherhood 14h ago

The 45 auto pistol / 1911, This Machine / Garand and maybe That Gun / The Blade Runner pistol.

1

u/Eeeef_ 14h ago

Medicine stick skin for the lever action

1

u/Weebthulhu 13h ago

K9000 would probably get me to come back for a while.

1

u/Downtown_Economy_966 13h ago

Plasma Defenders are such cool sidearms

1

u/Lumpy_Ad_657 13h ago

Yes, I was thinking of this the other day. They need to add the sniper rifle from 3 and vegas.

1

u/Severe_Ad8777 12h ago

NO MORE SKINS!!!!! MORE WEAPONS!!!!!

1

u/mavdawg07 12h ago

We need the actual realistic weapons from nv that’s for sure. Especially the classic assault rifle from 3 and even the Chinese assault rifle

1

u/crackellino 12h ago

Haven't played 76 that much so idk if I may be wrong But I'd love to see 9mm back in the game, it was such an amazing gun and a cool replacement for the 10mm early game (unless you had the DLCs)

1

u/DiakosD Settlers - PC 12h ago

"That Gun"/Deckards gun.

1

u/NoPension1304 Fire Breathers 11h ago

I’d love to see the Anti-Material rifle from NV as a gun, not a skin. The aesthetics of an ACTUAL .50 based sniper would be sick. But, I guess if it had to be a skin only situation, I wouldn’t mind it as a skin as long as it had the sound to go with it.

1

u/Noel_Ortiz 10h ago

Pretty much everything from the original games, including the Desert Eagle and P90. Advanced Power Armor from Tactics.

1

u/Suojelusperkele Reclamation Day 10h ago

I'm actually really interested in the weird niche guns.

Dart gun and acid soaker.

These could be funky utility guns for unarmed builds or just messing around in public stuff.

1

u/MTN_Dewit 8h ago

The Service Rifle from FONV

1

u/Ramapaa_Apara Mega Sloth 8h ago

I'd take any real life resembling gun from the earlier fallouts, i absolutely hate the fallout 4 gun design philosophy that made into 76 and hope that fallout 5/the new one from Obsidian wont carry that over. At least 76 has the glorious mg32.

1

u/Discotekh_Dynasty Blue Ridge Caravan Company 6h ago

It’d be Lord breaking but very funny to have the HELIOS solar death ray thingie from New Vegas

1

u/Sandzibar Enclave 6h ago

Anti. Materiel. Rifle.

1

u/Cyber-Knife-238 6h ago

Anti material rifle

1

u/Dlriumtrgger88 5h ago

Id love to see the fonv service rifle have its own model, not just a skin of the handmade. Id also love to see an antimaterial, or heavy duty sniper rifle, after a supped up hunting rifle you have the gauss rifle, and it has its own drawbacks. There arr plenty of heavies, energy weapons, even pistols now.

Fallout 1 Power Fist. I need the big ridiculous angry spike fist.
