"DPX"
Someone keeps trying to add "DPX" figures to weapon pages; to get these he seems to just be multiplying damage by rate of fire. The problem is there is no evidence the in-game weapon stat bars are directly comparable and significant evidence they are not: for example, the pistol does *not* fire four-fifths as fast as the laser rifle when fully upgraded, neither does it deal seven-tenths the damage of the rocket launcher. Using the "DPX" figure for direct comparison is nonsense. 193.35.132.52 23:19, September 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Damage per Xylophone. Ill check the history of this page, and if its the same guy whos been doing this to all pages Ill give him a warning. I think hes unregistered. Dorgles 23:25, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Pistol Primary?
I threw in the note about the pistol being a good primary weapon for a lethal stealth run, but someone reverted the change with the line 'can never be a primary, that's why it's a sidearm' (or to that effect) for the edit reason. This bothers me just a touch, since that recommendation was based on my own experiences with the weapon--it's seriously what I use the most and it's darn good at the role of stealthy and reliable headshots. Could I get some backup on this? --74.182.83.96 05:24, September 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * Agreed. If I wasn't playing pacifist, I would take the pistol as my primary gun instead of the stun gun. Irian 05:37, September 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * People, please stop doing nonsense undos: Just because YOU don't use it as a primary weapon, doesn't mean that it can't be used as one. As headshots with it can be very lethal (especially upgraded), ammo is available everywhere, a silencer can be attached, etc. the Pistol can be a great choice for someone who wants to play sneaky silent killer.

 * Not to mention that you can upgrade it early on to negate armor. Funildodeus 18:06, September 7, 2011 (UTC), 1305, September 7, 2011
 * For free, since the AP upgrade is found in Jensen's apartment. It's rather like the plasma cutter in Dead Space--it's surprisingly good and available from the start, and stays useful for the whole length of the game --74.182.83.96 02:32, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, honestly, I haven't found a situation outside of boss fights where the pistol hasn't served me well. The thing is just scary versatile if you don't suck at taking head shots Funildodeus 04:38, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
