Anyone one else dislike the hunting rifle in FO4

Its not that the stats dont please me, its the asthetics of the rifle that i hate, for one the rife has its bolt on the left side of the gun, for somepeople thats fine but for me cycling each round just feels like a chore rather than i slick motion, to argue my point your character has to change the postion of the rifles just to pull the bolt back, (even when Aiming down sight's) i prefered the bolt being on the right like in previouse games where we could remain ADS' with continouse fire

Anyone else agree, or have a different opinion, please share your thoughts.

No disagreements from me I to hate the left handed bolt feels like a mistake because im very sure all guns are right handed and that rifle is the only left handed weapon in the game . A mistake or laziness ''well we did the animation and rigging with the rifle but its left handed ehhhhh just leave it in'' or maybe its to show off the wedding ring on your left hand to licit some sort of emotion response i dont know i just dont like it .

but what do I know I'm just a platypus

Kudos to the mod maker that makes a proper right handed bolt animation.

I actually like the change. It's different, it's not the same that's in every other shooter that features a bolt action rifle. I feel it gives the game a little "personal" touch. It wouldve been really interesting if they would've randomized it a bit, so that you have both types of bolts in game instead of just the left handed, but I like the subtle change. There are left hand bolt action rifles in real life, they are kinda rare, but they are out there.

For my opinion i dont like it, but at the same time I do understand its something different. Preferably though, I would like a right handed bolt since I myself am a right handed person and shoot right handed

Seems like an old design choice, but no complaints from me. I remember Far Cry 2 had a left handed Springfield, and in an interview, one of the devs said it was to show off the effects of the engine or something along those lines. Either way, being a lefty myself, I think it's a neat addition, if impractical considering most firearm users, myself included in practice, shoot as if right handed

I have no problems with it, if it's a left handed bolt its a left handed bolt, I personally love energy weapons though which are better than guns in every Fallout game.

The only thing I hate about it is the glitch when it automatically reloads when I exit the zoom too early after firing a shot. Really grinds my gears.

Only weird thing is the left bolt for me.....it feels wrong and i hope people can change it to a right side bolt when the GECK come's out.

Also i find it weird how you change a .308 Hunting rifle to .50 and keep the gun so small. Anti-Material Rifle was huge in NV compared to a .50 Hunting rifle in FO4.

Damage wise the Hunting rifle becomes meh at lvl 60+ (for me atleast and i got a mod that buffs it and got it chambered in .50) Even my Combat Rifle does more damage.

There's quite a number of weapons and armors in Fallout 4 that I don't like, this rifle being one of them

Anyone else dislike the amount of Star Wars topics?

Its not that the franchise doesnt please me, its the amount of it here that I hate, for one the franchise has its best period being in the first 3 movies only, for some people thats fine but for me milking the franchise just feels like a chore rather than a slick motion, to argue my point your interests have to change from one subject to another, (even when new movie is out), I even prefered the Caesar vs NCR topics being a constant trend rather than a rapid fire of SW-themed discussions without a place and chance for anything else.

The thing is that the way you pull back they bolt, some shell casings would have hit your face closed eyes smile

i think the zoom is too much on it and this way you can notice the shitty draw distance but i have no problems at all with it

Does anyone hate that theres only 2 revolvers in the game, (and one of them is made completely redundent by the other), in New Vegas we had the 44, hunting, 357, and police revolver par from the police revolver they all had benifits and querks, the hunting and ranger sequoi had power and accuracy wheres the 357. had better speed and more common ammo, the 44 was the middle ground and the police revolver, well i nevver used the police revolver so i couldnt tell you
Perhaps i should just change this topic to "weapons we dislike in Fallout 4"

I agree and i also miss the old school lever action firearms and massive machine guns like the FN Minmi from New Vegas and the assault rifle is in no way an assault rifle it's just some FN Minmi wannabe.

It seems that there is always lacking weapon diversity in Bethesda games, They should have at least a couple types of each weapon. Oh well I guess mods will fix it and Bethesda won't have work quite as hard. They benefit from long term sales of the game without having to put in any work. Liberty Prime would be proud.

I don't enjoy using the hunting rifle. I kinda wish the diversity of guns was more. I might as well just wait till weapon packs are released to get more weapons. The musket is an interesting weapon to use and is different but, other than that not much of a change lol.

I bet they have a lot of ideas on their mind at the beginning of the production. Unfortunately, in the end they only manage to achieve few. The combat system seems to be their focus for change, and they did fine for that part. But yes, the lack of weapon variety is a thing they need to improve, like seriously, it's like fallout 3 all over again for lack of choice in weapons. The mods are great though. For example, the hunting rifle, I feel the reason they cut the tactical bi-pod on marksman stock is because they were trying to input prone system or set up bi-pod behind cover maybe, but didn't quite success.

What really annoys me about the hunting rifle is the sounds for it. It jsut lacks that UMPH the old one did.

I just really dislike the placement of the bolt on the left-hand side. It feels so inefficient and the opposite of ergonomic. Cycling would be much faster if the bolt was on the right side since the playable character is right handed. The rifle also feels like it is lacking in damage but that may have to do with the bullet sponge difficulty. I believe Bethesda did this to just exaggerate the animations; similarly why DICE made the same choice with some weapons in both Battlefield Bad Company 1 and 2.
