Each Chaos weapon shares one of the weapon slots (on your numbered keys) with a standard UT2 weapon, and it will also share the same spawn points in the maps. This means that when you are playing ChaosUT2, you will find the crossbow in the same spot you normally find the shock rifle. The weapons will simply rotate. Sometimes you'll find the Shock Rifle there, and sometimes you'll see the Crossbow. And once you've picked up both, you can then switch between them by pressing their select key (in this case the "4") multiple times.
Crossbow: |
|
|
The Crossbow has been one of the most
heavily used weapons in Chaos tournament history, and with recent advancements
in design and ammunition, this trend is expected to continue. With 3
firing
modes, and 4 types of arrows available, this bow is an extremely versatile
weapon.
Primary Fire: Pressing and releasing primary fire button will fire one arrow at a time in rapid succession. Alternate Fire: When using alternate fire, you can load up to 5 arrows at once. You simply hold down the alt fire button, and the bow will start to load up more arrows, one at a time. You may release the alt fire key at any time, and fire 2, or 3 or 4 arrows. However, you cannot run around holding multiple arrows loaded up, ready to fire. As soon as the 5th arrow is loaded, the bow will automatically fire. The Chaotic Dreams Advanced Weapon Option™: This crossbow features the new Chaotic Dreams Advanced Weapon Option™! When using the crossbow, you may hit your Advanced Weapon Option Key (found in the ChaosUT2 section of your Settings | Control menu) and change the function of the alternate fire. When the Advanced Weapon Option is
activated on the crossbow, instead of alternate fire using multiple
arrows, only one arrow at a time will load up, but the windlass will
start cranking, increasing the tension, and thereby greatly
increasing the power of that arrow. So you will only fire
one arrow at a time, but it will fly farther and faster, and do more
damage when it finds it's target.
|
Regular Arrows: The default arrow type, and sharp enough to rip players heads off. | |
Poisonous Arrows: A hollow point on these is filled with venom. Upon impact some of this venom will fly out as gas, but it is harmless. The venom remaining in the arrowhead, however, is deadly and the effects of it will last at least several seconds. | |
Flaming Arrows: The arrowheads on these are flammable, and ignited during the loading process by a sparker at the end of the bow. The arrow does some damage on impact, and since the victim catches on fire, they continue to deliver some damage afterwards as well. Also, when an arrow hits the ground its flame will stay alive for a short while, which can also catch people on fire. |
|
Explosive Arrows: The final arrow type, these attach a small explosive to the end of the arrow, which detonates on impact. | |

Grenade Launcher : |
|
|
The Grenade Launcher is most effective in close to medium range combat, quickly and accurately delivering standard fragmentary grenades, as well as napalm, and poison gas. There are also flash grenades available, which can be used quite strategically in team based competition.
Using the primary fire key will launch grenades which explode on impact. Alternate Fire: Alt fire will give you timed grenades,
that do not explode on impact. Ammo Types:
|
Explosive: Then standard issue grenade, it will explode similarly to a rocket explosion. |
|
Poisonous: Containing a vial of highly volitile combination of acids, this grenade type will burst into a cloud of poison when it detonates. This poison will cause vision impairments and well as eat away at health. | |
Napalm: Similar to the poison grenade, except the vial is filled with a self-igniting gas. Upon detonation, flames will be spread over the nearby area, causing burn damage as well as setting players caught in the blaze on fire. | |
Flash: When detonated, a small but very bright explosion will erupt from these grenades. It is bright and powerful enough to any white-out eyes and visual sensors that are directed towards it, but the effects of this wear off very quickly. | |

Chaotic Dreams FC12 Multi-Item
Launcher (aka: The Claw2) : |
|
|
The Claw2 is a rather unique, and extremely useful weapon. It currently utilizes two completely different ammo types, and is very easy to use, simply pick it up and fire. However, to make the most of this weapon, one must learn to use the ammo types in the proper situations.
Ammo Types: To change ammo types, use the 'Change Ammo'
key, |
Proxy Mines: They just might decide to turn on you!

Fire Mines: When these mines are placed against a wall or other similar surfaces, they will emit a special laser beam. When that beam is cut, it will ignite in a string of fire. Use them wisely however, as they are easily destroyed, simply by shooting the 'base' of the mine.

The ChaosUT Tactically Enhanced Ripper (aka C.U.T.T.E.R.) : |
|
|
Inspired
by the Buzzsaw for Q2Chaos, and the Ripper from Unreal Tournament, the
CUTTER delivers exactly what players have come to expect. Extremely sharp
circular blades flying around the arena, capable of quick clean headshots
even after multiple ricochets.
Secondary Fire: The weapon flips on it's side and fires vertical blades which explode on impact sending shrapnel in all directions.
The CUTTER uses one ammo type, and there are 12 blades per pack. |
Enhance Rail Delivery Weapon (aka:
ERDW): |
|
The ERDW is capable of delivering a slug at ultra high speed, instantly causing considerable damage to the target. The rail slugs are extremely deadly, however they cause no 'splash damage', and in addition, the weapon was not designed with a scope. Thus requiring the user to be a sufficiently trained, and skilled marksman to take full advantage of it's inclusion in the tournament.
Primary
Fire:
Alternate Fire:
The ERDW uses one type of ammo, and there are six slugs supplied in each refuel package.

Chaos SniperV2:
|
|
|
Classic sniping is back, with the return of Chaos Sniper Rifle. Designed to fit the needs of even the most demanding snipers in the game. It's equipped with a scope, and fires 2 types of ammo. Primary
Fire: The Chaotic Dreams Advanced Weapon Option™: This sniper rifle features the new Chaotic Dreams Advanced Weapon Option™! When using the rifle, you may hit your Advanced Weapon Option Key (found in the ChaosUT2 section of your Settings | Control menu) and change the function of the scope. When activated, this will enable the new LifeSignTracker (aka LST) system, which uses various methods to detect possible targets. Including heat sensors, heartbeat sensors, and even sound and EM emission detectors, which means the LST system can accurately detect humans, aliens or machines. Once a possible target is indentified, an icon is drawn on the HUD to indicate the location, and it can even track them if they are behind walls! Ammo Types: To change ammo types, use the 'Change Ammo'
key, |
Ammo Type 'A' : Your standard sniper bullet, traveling at a very high rate of speed. However, it is not an 'instant hit' weapon. You may be required to lead your target slightly. You will also see tracer bullets while using the standard ammo. (and so will your enemy) | |
Ammo Type 'B' : Commonly referred to as RPB's, these Rocket-Propelled Bullets cause considerable damage, and they and can even penetrate multiple targets. However, due to the nature of their delivery system, they leave a distinctive trail of smoke rings, which the enemy can use to locate your position. | |

The Gravity Vortex Launcher : |
|
Combining
Physics and Chaos always has wonderful results, and the new and improved
vortex launcher is a prime example of this. Each vortex launcher comes
equipped with an orb held by the launcher's field, when released, this orb
counts down a short timer, and then activates, resulting in a miniture
black hole that sucks the air nearby... and anything that happens to be
caught in that air. Beware, the pull is quite strong and has a decent
range, so make sure you can avoid your own vortex before you fire it! Primary
Fire: Starts the timer on the vortex ball and tosses it a few meters
in front of the player. After a bounce or two, it will rise up and
activate.
Alternate Fire: Instead of a few meters, this mode can toss the
ball much further, but requires charging time, represented by the
chargebar in the HUD.

The Chaotic Dreams Advanced Weapon
Option™: The CUT2 Rocket Launcher
|
|
This modified version of the rocket launcher uses the same model, and has all the features of the normal rocket launcher you have come to love... plus more. When the Advanced Weapon Option Key (found in the ChaosUT2 section of your Settings | Control menu) is pressed, it will activate a hidden laser, and any rockets fired while in this mode will actively seek the laser dot. Which means after firing the rocket, you can then guide it to your target using the laser sight. The firing configurations
remain the same (primary is a single rocket, secondary charges up 3
rockets), and it uses the same ammo as the standard rocket launcher. |
