Machine guns, generally, are heavier weapons with a rapid rate of fire. To quote the Quake manual, they "eat ammo like popcorn."
Mechs (or Mecha) are humanoid-like pilot driven vehicles often depicted in media as a combat machine. Early examples of Mech/Mecha in video games are often derived from early manga and anime as well as table-top games.
An explosive ordinance propelled by a rocket engine designed to blow an object to smithereens. A missile is often guided, in some way, to its target. For example; by laser, remote control, or computer/GPS.
A mine that can be placed in the world by the player. It is attracted to vehicles, like metal to a magnet. The mine explodes when it comes into contact with a vehicle.
An explosive which, when placed, will detonate when someone gets too close to it.
Last resort when falling from the sky. Allows the user to glide to safety with ease.
A pistol is a very basic hand-held side arm, usually used in case of low ammo or tricky situations. They have appeared in many types of games.
A type of weapon that fires a conductive projectile to incredible speeds, using kinetic energy rather than explosive force.
A red dot sight (also referred to as a scope) is a sight placed on firearms. The aiming reticule is represented as an illuminated red dot in the middle of the sight.
Seen in nearly all the Battlefield games in some way or another, the repair tool is used by the Engineer class to restore health to friendly vehicles.
Any firearm meant to be held with two hands, a rifle is a video game object that appears in many combat related video games.
The ultimate weapon attachment that uses telescope optics to enlarge distant targets thus increasing your accuracy.
The weapon of choice for accuracy at long distances. The sniper rifle's slow rate of fire makes it ineffective for close range combat, but its high calibre round ensures that it inflicts maximum damage against the target.
A firearm capable of firing pistol ammunition automatically. Favored for shorter distances, or dealing death indoors.
A supply drop or support drop is a delivery of supplies often by aircraft to the player which often contains weapons and ammo. It typically costs money to have done and must be place carefully in order not to damage the goods in order to get them.
A tank is generally a heavily armoured and armed, tracked vehicle designed to be at the front of a combined forces attack.
A gun turret is weapon mount designed to protect the user or mechanisms of a weapon system. The weapon itself is not a turret, but rather the protective housing of the user or mechanisms of the weapon system.
