Of the world of Metro Exodus, the action-adventure FPS released this February 15th on PC, PlayStation 4 e Xbox One, many things can be said, but certainly not that it is a particularly friendly environment. In fact, being able to easily run into cannibals, bandits or thugs, it is important to know how to arm yourself properly to be able to take them down quickly.
For this reason, in the game, the choice of the stealth option is always given, thus allowing the player to preserve ammunition and health packs, but at the same time in some situations the armed confrontation cannot be avoided.
For this purpose you will find a whole series of balanced guns within the world of Metro Exodus, which will help you to think always different game strategies. In addition to this, it will be further necessary to have to worry about the updates and customizations of these weapons, as, even just by changing some part, you can go to completely modify a weapon to better adapt it to your style of play.
With this guide, we therefore want to show you all the different weapons present within Metro Exodus, in order to help you select the most appropriate ones for different situations during the game sessions or that could be more useful to you.
Revolver (pistol):
The Metro Exodus revolver does not differ much from revolver standards present in this type of games. It is capable of inflicting quite significant damage, but presenting a huge recoil and a major limitation in terms of execution speed. It is therefore a type of weapon recommended for players who are able to be precise in scoring hits and who want to aim to take down enemies as quickly as possible.
A-shot (shotgun / pistol):
The peculiarity of this weapon is that it is presented in the game as a pistol, although in fact it is a low-powered rifle. The A-shot in fact, it has all the properties of a rifle, but able to function as a pistol if subjected to the right improvements. It is the most effective weapon in close range, as it is quite fast; however, its accuracy is not the best, even if upgraded through modifications. This type of weapon in particular can be very useful in the early stages of the game, but later it is very easy for it to be replaced, such as by the revolver.
Shambler (shotgun):
Nothing is as it might seem in the post-apocalyptic world of Metro Exodus, and that rule also applies to it shambler, as it is very accurate and able to operate much faster than theA-shot, but not able to deal the same amount of damage. For this reason, it shambler it is a weapon that may initially appear not very useful, but which becomes very powerful when you start adding different upgrades.
Little Bastard (machine gun):
La little bastard is the go-to SMG from Metro Exodus, and for this reason its strong point is an impressive high rate of fire. This can be both a strength and a risk in the game, as it can be extremely useful during fights but at the same time, having more moving parts causes more weapon jams. The blast fire is indeed the strong point of the Little Bastard, which thus compensates for its low damage level. It's definitely not a simple weapon or one of the best in the game, but it could be very useful for certain types of players.
Kalash (rifle):
Il Kalash is one of the first weapons available in Metro Exodus: as the name suggests, it is a post apocalyptic weapon directly inspired by the Kalashnikov AK-47, one of the most famous rifles ever. Just like its counterpart in reality, it has a solid speed in setting fire and can be easily defined as an all-rounder, with its strengths and weaknesses. Advantages since from the first use it presents itself as a versatile and useful weapon in different situations, defects in that it does not really excel in any field, and often must be replaced by heavier weapons, such as the bulldog.
Bulldog (rifle):
Il bulldog is a shotgun available only later in Metro Exodus, but which is considered one of the best weapons since it can fire three-shot bursts with greater autonomy and accuracy. However, with this weapon even if with the slower rate of fire in a burst it should not give problems, often you risk encountering it with the ammunition. Either way, the bulldog remains less reliable than the Kalash as it needs cleaning and repairs much more frequently, although on balance it is an extremely better weapon.
Tikhare (air rifle):
Lo Tikhar is one of the weapons that is introduced to the player as part of the main story progression in Metro Exodus, and is nothing more than a hand-built air rifle. This is almost a very powerful BB pistol with low damage but incredibly accurate and quiet, making it the best stealth weapon. The only flaw, however, concerns the bullets which, being difficult to find during game sessions, often need to be crafted.
Valve (sniper rifle):
Basically, the Valve it is the only option in the game to be able to operate in wide-ranging combat, succeeding very well in its mission. It has a huge backlash and a fairly slow rate of fire, while still remaining a weapon capable of taking down enemies simply through with a well-aimed blow. Very useful in certain situations, but there are better options to fill the few available weapon slots.
Helsing (crossbow):
Subsequently, the player may be faced with another very silent and deadly weapon, namely the'helsing. As the name suggests, it is a crossbow: it is one of the favorite weapons for stealth game sessions which, in addition to not presenting any problems with regard to ammunition since the bullets can be recovered from the corpses of enemies, from also the possibility of using explosive type ammunition.
