Decision on games weapon, need an idea.

[Apex]

I'm making an iOS First Person Shooter at the moment and I'm really close to completion with 4 playable characters. But I have a problem.

Each character has a primary and secondary gun except for one character who I haven't designed a gun for yet. I need an idea for a secondary weapon to go with the player's primary sniper.

Since the other 3 characters have duel pistols, a flamethrower and a revolver between them as secondaries, I'm stumped on the last characters different weapon.

Please think of an awesome idea (can be a normal weapon or not, perhaps lasers) and in a few days I'll choose one and credit all those who gave ideas. I just need an original idea.

I really can't think of another. D:

Grenade launcher? have it slow to reload since it's a secondary.

Single pistol but it's an automatic? small clip but rapid fire.

When you say FPS you mean first person? i've been out of the mmf loop for a little while but are you doing that in mode 7 or something else?

[Apex]

Yes, first person. I've worked on my own little build rather than adopting mode7. Mode7 wont work on iOS.

I was going to avoid larger projectiles. Mainly because I've built a system for the rest of the weapons and grenades drop over distance would mean some extra work. Unless the grenade didn't drop.

I'd say a standard pistol weapon would be best. And comparing to other FPS games.

Perhaps a throwing knife? Shuriken? Arm-pistol (kinda like AC)? Something that shoots bullets that you can detonate? Sword? Boxing glove shooter? Ice-thrower? Plasma cannon (shoots a continual beam)? Throwing spear? Rocket Launcher? Shotgun? Shotgun pistol?

I think the idea of Shuriken or Bo-Shuriken sound pretty cool (awesome idea NeldaInteractive!). What about things like clods of dirt, rocks, pine cones?

Marbles, caltrops, glass shards, Lightning bolts?

[Apex]

I'm going to use the Shuriken idea. And everybody that came up with ideas will be credited.
