Weapons in The Ballad of Gay Tony: Difference between revisions

[[The Ballad of Gay Tony]] introduces seven new, military-grade, weapons, and also introduces the [[parachute]] to the [[GTA IV Era|GTA IV era]]. The [[Weapons in GTA IV|weapons]] from [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] are still available and the [[Grenade Launcher]] from [[Weapons in The Lost and Damned|The Lost and Damned]] returns. Like The Lost and Damned, the new weapons can only either be purchased from [[Armando Torres]]' [[Cavalcade]] or spawned at [[Northwood Apartment|Luis' apartment]] after completing a certain number of [[Drug Wars]]. Unlike TLAD however, the player can also acquire the new weapons by inputting the "Advanced Weapons Set" [[Cheats_in_GTA_IV#The_Ballad_of_Gay_Tony|cheat code]].

Explosives used to tag vehicles or objects for remote detonation. Unlike the [[Satchel Charges]] in [[GTA: San Andreas]], these bombs '''don't''' stick to people. An explosive charge detonates when the player press down on the d-pad or shoots the charge. After completing 40 [[Drug Wars]], some are sent to Luis' apartment. They pack the explosive punch of a [[Pipe Bomb]], but with the ability to stick to vehicles, buildings, etc.

===[[Pistol .44]] (AMP Automag Model 180)===

A new type of handgun. It is a high velocity handgun for quick and accurate kills. Using the .44 Magnum cartridge, it is more powerful and accurate than the [[Desert Eagle|Combat Pistol]], however the Pistol .44 has the lowest rate of fire of any handgun, and takes longer to reload. After 10 drug wars, one is sent to Luis' apartment.

A Gold-plated SMG. [[Yusuf Amir]] is often seen carrying this weapon. It is given to the player as a reward alongside Yusuf's [[Super Drop Diamond]] as a reward for completing all his missions. It can also be purchased from Armando after unlocking it. The weapon has a high rate of fire and superior stopping power compared to other SMGs; however it is less accurate due to the weapon being fired from the hip. After completing 50 drug wars, one is sent to Luis' apartment.  

A light, accurate, silenced and compact sub-machine gun. The weapon's 50-round magazine and accuracy makes it a good ground combat weapon; however, the weapon has less stopping power than the standard SMG and takes longer to reload. Unlike other SMGs, the Assault SMG '''cannot''' be used as a drive-by weapon. Several [[NOOSE]] and FIB officers carry the Assault SMG rather than the [[SMG]] or [[Carbine Rifle]].  

 

NOTE: ''If the player switches from the Automatic Shotgun to either the Pump Shotgun or Combat Shotgun, the player loses any extra shells beyond 80. Also, if the player switches between explosive rounds and standard shells, the player loses all units of the previous ammunition type.''

A powerful weapon that fires 900 rounds per minute, taking enemies down fast. The Advanced MG is placed in the Assault Rifle slot since it uses 5.56x45mm NATO rounds. The weapon's magazine capacity and rate of fire makes it perfect for engaging multiple enemies; however, it has less stopping power than either assault rifle and is less accurate due to the weapon being fired from the hip. LCPD and NOOSE officers in The Ballad of Gay Tony use the Advanced MG from helicopters instead of the [[AR-15|Carbine Rifle]]. After completing 20 drug wars, one is sent to Luis' apartment.

===Parachute===

The Parachute returns in The Ballad of Gay Tony. Its steering system is the same as in San Andreas. It is first used in [[High Dive]], and in parachute checkpoints. The parachute is automatically, infinitely available in multiplayer.
