HERE IT IS. S Tier: Volley Gun A+ Tier: Revolver, Sniper Rifle A Tier: Hail Fire, Shotgun, Carbine B Tier: Machine Gun, Repeater, RPG D Tier: Heater , Pistol, Burstgun
@@baharbenita5457 I dont get it, why everyone put the hand cannon on top, carbine has 3x the bullet capacity and the fire rate, but the damage is not 3x lower. And with all the enemies moving all the time it, its just much better to spam more shots
I was so disappointed all those years ago when I first picked up the burst gun and realized how it basically sucked at everything :( usually my favorite weapon in fps games. Great video btw!!!
To be honest I don’t even know why the burstgun has a scope on it when it’s recoil is so high that it’s literally unfunctional to take out enemies from any range
carbine-sniper-handcannon for me. but I was surprised that repeater had 0 recoil. Now I know that the volley gun could come in handy for a 1999 run, thanks
pistol is c tier for 3 reasons one the ammo is plentiful in a pinch 2 its basically a (broom handle) Evas gun in MGS3 aim for the chest it will drag up and hit the head fairly reliablly and clip size youd be amazed how many times i lived in the early game cause i unloaded the clip (im sorry i just CANT put it in the same tier as the burst gun!!! but other wise AWASOME list
Tried the volley gun full upgraded on the 1999 mode, i really didn't like it, the damage was so low and the volley is annoying to use, i prefer the combo sniper+hand canon, two heavy hitters and a shock trolley to crowd control, i had the gear that gives 50%+ to critical damage and the tunnel vision that increase the damage while using the ads by 25%, the 1999 mode was really cool and challenging.
The volley gun does AOE damage and stuns foes on hit, it combos well with any plasmid, so electrobolt scales its damage for bursting and is cheap/spammable.
In my first time playing bioshock infinite I have made the best choice Sniper Rifle with hand cannon and Charge Vigor and when is possible to find munition I use Volley Gun Obs: when I don’t have more options I use the carbine
for me i use the mg, shotty, sniper and rpg. rocket launcher being my favorite has the devils kiss effect. using it bucking bronco, shock jockey and storm destroy everything from existence makes the screen spazz out too from all that overkill
Im not on 1999 good but I upgraded the volley gun all the way and been just shredding through the game with little to no repercussions on my health or shield
Only ever played the game once on Xbox 360 on Normal mode. I mained Sniper and Hand Cannon. I loved cracking shots at short range with my sniper or revolver. Ammo was a bit of a problem if I got trigger happy or missed too many shots, but it was just plain fun. Maybe I’ll buy the game on steam and play on hard and give it a shot. It’s been about 5 or so years since I’ve played. Good video, good points about the Vigor synergy. I forgot which vigors were my favorite or are good
I dont get it, it seems to me that regular pistol and the carbine are really great cause of capacity. Comparing to handcannon, okay they deal less damage, but 3x less? Doesnt feel like.
You can't go wrong with any of those weapons. Handcannon can 1 shot headshot enemies without plasmids and has enough ammo to last you for long fights in 1999 mode, the default pistol is great when using shock jockey, IMO the carbine is outclassed by starter pistol and you should use starter pistol with some kind of AOE or power weapon like Volley Gun, Shotgun (Can hit multiple things when lined up), handcannon or sniper rifle for 1 tapping /burst
@@IcedCoffeeGaming But carbine deals more damage then the pistol right? And capacity is very close. Also with carbine you can tap so fast that i think in close ranges it could even be better then shotgun. By far my fav setup is charge+carbine+volley, so much fun.
Playing 1999 mode here and wow default pistol as well as carbine are surprisingly inefficient taking ridiculous amount of shots in the body. So going for a headshot is way faster. Also for hand cannon it seem that bullet hitbox is a bit bigger so its easier to hit headshots. But im not sure.
@@IcedCoffeeGaming Playing 1999 here and wow default pistol and carbine are so inefficient, well shooting in the body anyway. Kinda see where were you coming from with hand cannon and headshots, so much faster. I think they done something to that balance for this mode particular, it wasnt like that for hard mode.
Shotgun sux, this game has too long hallways or far enemy spawn camp. Can barely get any fight close range without getting of cover. I would only upgade volley, sniper and carbine. Revolver is great but has few ammo.
Call me insane I run a Machinegun then switch to heater replica/melee/hand cannon lol often I'll swap the heater for a shotgun until I can buy ammo, I melee a lot but I only play on easy lulz
So weird that most of the vox guns suck ass... Sad to say because I find some of their gun mechanics fascinating but doesn't really hold up to the founder weapons. Really love the idea of the fire shotgun thing as a single shot 'delete your opponent' concept but damn, its just not implemented very well..
Hand cannon and Shotgun is all you need with a sniper from time to time.
Hand cannon Shotgun and sniper are actually my personal favourites
Because every time I play the game i only use those 3

@@abgvedr Hitting headshots with a revolver is much more satisfying.
Though I ended up using Carbine much more often than Hand Cannon.
That’s pretty much how I played it the 1st time

It's bad enough that it has the damage spread over time (and rarer ammo) but it also has increased deflection.
carbine-sniper-handcannon for me. but I was surprised that repeater had 0 recoil. Now I know that the volley gun could come in handy for a 1999 run, thanks
The crank gun can be useful against larger enemies though I wish it had an upgrade
Similar situation with the minigun in Metro Exodus, it doesn't have upgrades and has its own ammo etc

I see there are a lot of hand cannon and sniper mains in here. Nice
Shock jockey build with carbine is broken if you get some one or two damage upgrades
What tier would you rate the crank gun? Id say its probably around A tier i guess
In my first time playing bioshock infinite I have made the best choice Sniper Rifle with hand cannon and Charge Vigor and when is possible to find munition I use Volley Gun
Obs: when I don’t have more options I use the carbine
Carbine and Volleygun is my go to weapon combo. Carbine for most enemies, and Volley Gun for Patriots/Handymen.
easily best weapon in the game revolver and sniper S teir combo very powerful 10/10
for me i use the mg, shotty, sniper and rpg. rocket launcher being my favorite has the devils kiss effect. using it bucking bronco, shock jockey and storm destroy everything from existence makes the screen spazz out too from all that overkill
Im not on 1999 good but I upgraded the volley gun all the way and been just shredding through the game with little to no repercussions on my health or shield
Also the paddywhacker is much longer range than most assume and kills most anything with a headshot and a few items/upgrades

It's very hard on 1999 mode on PC, getting headshots is satisfying IMO.

i play this game with sniper rifle and shotgun, best combo in my opinion
It is very strong, I do like that the shotgun can hit multiple things for good damage if they are lined up.
I go with the carbine/shotgun for most of the game.
Shotgun sux, this game has too long hallways or far enemy spawn camp. Can barely get any fight close range without getting of cover.
I would only upgade volley, sniper and carbine. Revolver is great but has few ammo.
Damage is halves? Well that's just some cheap artificial difficulty scaling then.
Yeah Burstgun is just bleh. I rather use the pistol. Really disappointed with its recoil and damage
I'd like to hear your opinion on Infinite.
Revolver and Sniper Rifle for me. Revolver is so good especially if you're with Elizabeth.

Everything you're saying is true but the burstgun is still my favourite gun in the game
Love your content
