- 4) Weapons & Items -
=======================
The necessity to survive is often met by little to no resistance. In this game,
it's met by a whole lot of resistance. This section will briefly go over the
weapons & items available in the game. I'd like to give credit to:
- http://www.postalnetwork.org/
for a reference list of the official names of the weapons, and a reference list
of the items.
________
/Weapons/
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
NAME: Shovel
POWER: **
ACCURACY: **
RANGE: *
OVERALL: ***
>> The shovel is the most powerful melee weapon in the game. It's
the only melee weapon that causes full decapitations. This comes
at the cost of a somewhat slower speed when swinging the shovel.
Still, it's very useful, very funny, and has a quicker stab attack
by right-clicking.
NAME: Baton
POWER: *
ACCURACY: ***
RANGE: *
OVERALL: **
>> The baton is the melee weapon for police officers and its
usefulness comes in the fact that it is small and quick to attack.
As a melee weapon, it hardly packs a punch, and it's best to both
melee kick and melee swing when using this item.
NAME: Stun Gun
POWER: ***
ACCURACY: **
RANGE: *
OVERALL: ****
>> The stun gun is a rare but useful weapon in that it doesn't
necessarily kill people (unless you decide to hold down the taze
to kill someone). Initially, it can harm and stun people by a
quick jolt of electricity. If you hold it down, you eventually fry
the person and give them a nice smoked death.
NAME: Pistol
POWER: **
ACCURACY: ****
RANGE: ****
OVERALL: ****
>> The pistol, as default as it sounds, is a great weapon to use
even later in the game. This weapon has extreme accuracy when
crouched, and since it is so common, has practically limitless
ammo. Very useful on long-range targets, and becomes less useful
the closer an opponent is. Still a premiere weapon for getting
precise headshots.
NAME: Shotgun
POWER: ***
ACCURACY: **
RANGE: **
OVERALL: **
>> The shotgun suffers from spread-itis. It is the only weapon in
the game that can incinerate the head of an opponent with one
direct shotgun blast, regardless of the armor status of the
target. However, you must be extremely close for this to happen,
and the shotgun suffers in taking down targets quickly and
efficiently. You will take a lot of hits if you only wield a
shotgun, and it must be pump-reloaded.
NAME: Rifle
POWER: ***
ACCURACY: ***
RANGE: ***
OVERALL: ****
>> The rifle is another situational weapon. It wreaks havoc when
you are being overrun in that you can fire in bursts manually, or
decide to go full-auto. The weapon is somewhat uncommon, and
you'll expend ammo like a rich kid at a penny candy store.
Nonetheless, it is very useful later on in the game when the
abundance of rifles is common. Great for getting automatic fire
headshots. It suffers in range though, and has natural deviation
on long-range shots. There is no way to switch it to semi-auto
fire.
NAME: Gas Can
POWER: ***
ACCURACY: *
RANGE: **
OVERALL: **
>> A quirky inconsistent weapon that is fun to use in certain
situations, and frustrating in others. What you do is hold down
the left click to spill gasoline (on the ground, on a target,
anywhere). Then, you must right-click to toss a match in the
gasoline spilt area. This will cause fire to arise. The fire can
spread onto yourself though.
NAME: Grenade
POWER: *****
ACCURACY: **
RANGE: ****
OVERALL: ****
>> Grenades in Postal 2 wreak quite a bit of havoc. You have to hold
down the primary fire button to charge up your throw. They explode
after a set distance of time (~5 seconds) or will explode if they
come within contact of a living body. You can also drop them
directly on the ground by right-clicking. This is useful for
setting up ambushes in doorways.
NAME: Molotov Cocktail
POWER: ****
ACCURACY: *
RANGE: *****
OVERALL: ***
>> The molotov cocktail is a wine bottle ignited with a white rag
causing a napalm-like fire to arise. It is tossed like a normal
grenade, however, when it impacts the ground, it causes fire to
spread. The fire can spread to yourself causing massive damage.
Molotovs are best used in tight corridors or on groups of people.
Be prepared to fire bullets at the people who get caught on fire
and try to run at you.
NAME: Scissors
POWER: *
ACCURACY: ***
RANGE: ***
OVERALL: **
>> Scissors are an odd weapon. They can be thrown like throwing
knives, or used in a secondary attack where they will continually
bounce around a room. However, damage is minimal, and they're
quite rare, so using them in a gun-toting battle is a rarity.
Still, they are representative of the game developers.
NAME: Hunting Rifle
POWER: *****
ACCURACY: *****
RANGE: *****
OVERALL: ****
>> The Hunting Rifle is another rare weapon that one shot kills
enemies ONLY when zoomed in. The gun is worthless when not zoomed
in. There is also a switching delay when going from zoomed to un-
zoomed, or vice versa. The scope is somewhat sluggish as well.
This brings down the overall rating a bit, but it pierces armor
and delivers beautiful headshots.
NAME: Diseased Cow Head
POWER: ***
ACCURACY: **
RANGE: **
OVERALL: **
>> This is a rare weapon that consists of an old rotten cow head.
When tossed, it explodes causing an orange poison to float amongst
the air. If people stand in it long enough, they will get sick and
puke up their own blood causing them to die. You can also drop one
on the ground and shoot it from a distance for a larger radius.
Hard to use in a combat-intensive situation, but fun to observe on
the streets of Paradise.
NAME: Bazooka
POWER: *****
ACCURACY: ****
RANGE: *****
OVERALL: *****
>> The bazooka is pretty much the dominant weapon in the game. It
fires a lone rocket that causes a massive explosion (identical to
grenades), except it can be targetted. The rocket is fired based
off of how much fuel is used. If less fuel is used, the rocket
will travel a shorter distance. If charged fully, the rocket will
track its target with a heat-sonar detector. Great for chasing
down innocent screaming civilians. If fired in secondary mode, the
rocket fires in a straight pattern.
NAME: Napalm Launcher
POWER: ****
ACCURACY: **
RANGE: ***
OVERALL: ****
>> A very rare weapon that can have devastating effects. This
launches a napalm-spewing rocket that bursts into napalm
everywhere. This is like a molotov cocktail x 2. Note that if you
secondary fire this weapon, it causes the rocket to bounce a few
times before imploding, leaving a huge radius of fire everywhere.
This weapon can kill yourself so do not fire close to yourself.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
NAME: Kevlar Vest
OVERALL: ****
>> This is armor designed to block bullets. It has the equivalency of
100 armor points. Very useful in any combat situation, but you'll
only find it in occasional spurts.
NAME: SIC Body Armor
OVERALL: *****
>> This is armor designed to be twice as good as Kevlar. Holds up to
200 armor points, but is VERY rare and you'll only find this once
an occasion. If you do get it, prepare for an intense battle as
that's why it's usually placed there.
NAME: Donut
OVERALL: **
>> This is a healing item. Heals about 5 health, however, it can be
used to bribe or distract cops. Simply drop one on the ground, and
