Pistols in the game
Ive unlocked 3 and when viewing under armory it shows 3/8 but when checking under both the supercredit catalog and the regular one shows no more guns other than shotguns really as unlockable. Where else do you get more sidearms?

the "medium armor penetration" guns only let you shoot suboptimal parts of devastators...etc. which is generally a waste of time compared to just headshot

Good eye there's only 3 in game right now that we can get or see and one of them is basically the same gun with a extended mag so basically there's only two side arms lol.

That's all you got for now.
Maybe more will come later.
But P-19 got your back so yeah.

I think it's suppose to have less armor penetration but its still high enough that it doesn't effect anything

Na it's the exact same just a bigger mag and less recoil you put that thing in semi and it's just the same gun with a extended mag and less recoil.

You're aware that penetration is a hidden value correct and you would likely need to data mine to find it? Light armor penetration is a scale

This is correct. Weapons have different penetration values within their classification of light, medium, etc. In other words, one weapon can have more or less penetration than another weapon despite both being within the same class of armor penetration.

Yup. The Spray & Prey is 'light armor pen' IIRC, but it's pellets can't penetrate eggs. Yes, the EGGS have armor that defeats it's rounds.

Meanwhile the Senator claims to be light armor pen and punches through the front head plate of Hive Guards and torso armor of Devastators. (Which is generally Medium pen territory.) I'm starting to wish they had an expanded stats page that just listed the numerical value for armor pen as grenades do.:raven:

short double barrel should always be a side arm in my opinion. sidearms are my main until they go empty

There are weapons in the game not yet unlocked yet. Assume they will be future gear that can be added to your armory...

Datamining has shown a lot of content is already in the game, just getting finalized.

The mechs are in but not finished yet and people have hacked them into matches already.

I would presume that there is a private world on the live server to test the content that they are looking at since Devs can literally jump into our live matches and screw with us if they wish (which they used to do in helldivers 1)
