Hi.
I'm asking this because from a person to other, the favorite weapons are different.
Well, my fav is the Lightning Gun. |

DBSG in singleplayer, Rocket launcher (duh) in DM. Although LG is not far behind, the RL is definitely much more fun to use, in a let's go back to my place bouncy bouncy kind of way. _________________ F. A.

I said super nailgun, just to be contrary, and because I like machinegun weapons. =P _________________ "Roboto suggests Plasma Bazooka." |

The super nailgun is rather cool, and powerful too. I chose super nailgun too (though it really should be called the Perforator). _________________ woh... feelin woozy... too much cider...

I like the grenade launcher in SP and the double-barrelled shotgun with quad damage in DM. |

The super nailgun,
a hundred nails and a quad,
is all I need to have some fun  _________________ frag.machine - Q2K4 Project

i would've used the nailguns more often if they didn't slow down my 486 so much >=( _________________

From a functional perspective, it's hard to beat the rocket launcher. From a aesthetic view, I love the deep, booming noise of the super nailgun!
It's a tough call between the two, but I'll have to cast my vote to the rockets - we aren't often treated to weapons of such caliber in 'modern' FPS games. |

Grenade launcher.
Nothing says I'm playing Quake like that pop-pop-pop-boing-boing-bam-bam-bam-SPLATTER.
Not the most effective in DM (though it has good tactical application, espescially if you can get them to chase you.) |

Shooting grenades at scrags is most satisfying but they dodge it so dang well if you don't time it with their attacks... _________________ F. A. Špork, an enlightened nobleman and a great patron of art, had a stately Baroque spa complex built on the banks of the River Labe. |
