What is the best pistol to use?


(roningoud) #1

I was playing with the caulden and find out that this pistol saved my live many times. even as a phoenix that can rise from the ashes you will sometimes need some little backup.

I was wondering wich pistel do you like the most? wich pistol did the most for you? leave a comment and pls tell me why you think this is the best pistol for you.

Whoops, I accidentally voted the Tolen MP instead of the Empire-9 for some reason… =/ Can’t unvote either so… my bad.

But anyway, this is kind of a weird poll since almost everyone would pick a machine pistol over the other kinds… If it were best pistol (not including the machine pistols) I’d say M9, DE.50, Selbstadt.40 or the S&W. If it were best machine pistol I’d say Empire-9, followed by MP400, followed by Tolen MP.

I know that many people would prefer a machine pistel, but i want to find out how many. and if not than why chosing a semi-auto? that is what i want to know. but i dont want to force them to choose a semi auto, i want to see how the big picture is.

I like a few of them myself. I usually just worry about what my primary is when picking a loadout anyway.

I think the reason that people choose the semi autos is because it’s often the best sidearm for the mercs that they use - so if they only use Bushwhacker, Skyhammer and Aura they’re only going to be able to use the M9, Selbstadt, Caulden, DE. 50, S&W and Simeon - so they’ll probably choose the best out of those guns rather than the best out of all the guns on the list.

It’s like before when someone posted a similar poll - people voted the Selbstadt over the M9 even though it’s strictly worse, and they did so because the Selbstadt was the sidearm of their favourite loadout. They picked the gun they were most familiar with and had grown accustomed to, not the actual best gun.

The Caulden though… :S

I know many people don’t like it but i really love to use the Deagle. Feels good to use and deliver headshots with.

Machine pistols == pistols.

Best pistol, subjectively is M9
Best machine pistol, objectively, Empire-9

I love the deagle to bad that the mercs I play don’t have decent loadouts with it :frowning:


(roningoud) #10

I’m so sorry for you man. :’(


(roningoud) #11

I don’t think that you are right but still in an other way right. some one would maybe like the pistol in an other way and most people don’t like the pistol because the knockback of the pistol (my feeling). but it is always about the feeling of a gun.

First of all, machine pistols are included in PDW, so they are actually not the same as pistols, and they are meant to be far superior than those ‘Pistols’, but I would definitely pick M9 if not including those MPs.

15 rounds, damage, accuracy, RoF nothing follows up this gun among pistols.

Best machine pistol? I would pick MP 400.

simeon is the best revolver for me and m9 is best to spam

This was already polled (excluding machine pistols, because they are intentionally better) here: http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/discussion/15334/what-is-your-favorite-pistol/p1

I love the DE.50 on Proxy Shotgun loadouts. It’s good as a range option. On Mercs that don’t have the DE.50 I always hope for the Selbstadt.

I didn’t know that. thx for telling mate.

Empire-9 on Fletcha is a beast. Too bad only he and Sporks have it.


(LifeupOmega) #18

Empire-9 if you can
MP400 otherwise
Or with actual pistols M9

(Although I like the Deagle 'cause its a Deagle)

Well if we are only talking about pistols (and not secondary smg) then i will say M9
as its the only pistol that can engage multible targets. other pistols have ammo and damage only for one target. Kinda sad realy, i would like to use hand cannons more than piss cannons.
