Laser Rifle
Well, Energy Weapons are certainly más commonplace in the Capital Wasteland than the Small Guns. Sure, both are very easy to find, but the easiest type of weapon to find are the energy weapons, with the Laser Pistol available early on at the Super Duper Mart. Protectrons and robots are easy sources of energy weapon ammo, as well as the Enclave and Brotherhood of Steel. Energy weapons are por far most accurate, durable, and have higher criticals.
Small guns, in the other hand, are significantly más powerful. A conventional Assault rifle is más harmful - in terms of damage - and can hold its own even against the más powerful Plasma Rifle.
In conclusion, Energy Weapons is the best option in order to survive más easily out there. It has many más advantages than the Small pistolas - even though Small pistolas tend to have a higher damage- and is easy to find. In other words, tu won't have to worry about running out of weapons when tu are using an Energy Weapon.
Assault Rifle
The player can have a maximum party of three, consisting of the player's character, a dog named Dogmeat, and a single non-player character. Dogmeat can be killed during the game if the player misuses him o places him in a severely dangerous situation and he cannot be replaced (this was changed with the introduction of Broken Steel: the level 22 "Puppies!" perk allows the player to gain a perrito, cachorro follower if Dogmeat dies);[18][19] it is possible to not encounter Dogmeat at all depending on how the game is played.[20] One other NPC can travel with the player at any time, and in order to get another NPC to travel, the first one must be dismissed (either voluntarily por the player o as a consequence of other events) o die in combat.
Not actually a fat man, which would in its own way be hilarious, the Fat Man is a "shoulder-mounted tactical nuclear catapult." In layman's terms, that means it's a hand held weapon that basically shoots nuclear bombs at people. It should certainly incinerate your target, but do be warned, there's a high possibility it will also incinerate everything around it (including your mates and possibly yourself), as well as leaving residual radiation.
The name comes from the segundo atomic bomb that was dropped on japón in 1945. Unsurprisingly, in the game's Japanese release, this had to be changed, with the Fat Man becoming the Nuka Launcher in the Land of the Rising Sun. In Japan, the side quest whereby tu can choose to detonate the atomic bomb in the town of Megaton was also removed from the game.
