Personally, I'd like an option where I'm actually shooting the guns, as opposed to juggling them.
I had figure'd you'd be tired of that stale topic, Bill.

Tends to stay in view for me. Not like we don't have some nice, base animations from MM Thugs pistols and the pistol temp power.

Personally, I would just like to have the "silenced" sound effect that the PPD Ghosts use as an option when using the silencer pistol types. The different colors of flight are enough for me to tell the difference in what I'm shooting.
Same here, really. I often end up using the "silenced" pistol, and it sounds the same as any other.
Put in sound customization.

In my mind, this would only work if each pistol was some sort of collection of steam punk-esque components like the legacy rifle to explain the different sounds heard based on the type of bullet being used. The bang of a gun is the sound of the muzzle blast as the bullet is fired from the gun rather than the sound of the bullet reacting with the air around it.|

Can we get different sound effects for the different ammo types? If my character has incendiary rounds, maybe sound effects from the Fire Blast set, Cold Blast for Cryo Rounds?, and Maybe radation blast, energy blast, or poison for the Chem rounds As an added bonus it'd be just one more indicator to let you and everyone around you know what ammo you're using. |

I think that perhaps putting an extra sound effects option might be a bit much...
However, I suppose sound effects might be linked to custom pistol model representation:
I.e. if a pistol model has a silencer on it it would play the silenced pistol sound effect, UZI's would play a short auto burst effect, etc. That would be nice.
Personally I would like to have some sort of energy / beam weapon model option-- especially something from the golden age (like a Buck Rodgers / Flash Gordon syle art deco rocket pistol). Doesn't have to be a full beam like x-ray eyes from the radiation set, could be just another rendition of the resistance tracer fire: red-orange for fire, green for toxic, white for cold, energy-blue for normal. An energy bolt with circles around it would look nice and period appropriate.
A rail/ring gun option would be nice: could have a p'zing--thawp! sound effect.
