i played a guy yesterday that used 3 different custom made weapons ive never seen before against me...
is it possible to have more than 1 custom made weapon in an online match? he used 3 against me in one match.. are some of these just weapons i havent unlocked yet? ive played everything and tons of online.
one of the weapons was a helecopter that appeared to drop bazookas down onto a stretch of land, one was a stick of dynamite with a button instead of a fuse. and the last one was a shotgun that shot like 8 shots out in a spread fashion...
am i retarded? how do i get these? ive played everything to completion, and ive played enough online that my rank started goin up. p.s. i primarily play deathmatch online... do i need to master the other types of online play to get this extra stuff? i have problems getting games in everything else....

Well yes, I think you are retarded. :p
Joke, your opponent simply used the Wii specific motion control option. You find three kinds of control options under "Options" and "Controls". Some weapons change a bit if you are using motion control, like the airstrike, which will turn into that helicopter, spread shots for the shotgun and dynamite with detonator.

so these weapons are improved when using that play style?

Some weapons debase and some improve, that's down to your own opinion.
The helicopter can't do as much damage as the usual airstrike and the range of surface damage is also decreased. The shotgun can no longer be used for long distance shots as each of the "splinters" only deal a damage of 5 hp. The dynamite, however, is obviously improved as you can use your whole remaining turntime to retreat after dropping it. You can also travel a longer distance using the jetpack with motion control.

I saw people on the PSP, who have 2 custom airstrikes and the offiacial one, so 3 airstrikes!
Really annoying...
But how is it possible to use the custom weopon twice?
How great was Open Warfare 2, and how bad is Battle Island...

The game is very obvious in explaining you you can use less powerful weapons more often. This way you can deal 55+ damage two times using an airstrike instead of 80+ damage with a single airstrike. I find it's way more useful using the two shots one.

Then why, why don't you just make yourself 2 airstrikes as well? It's not any hard to do. If you don't realize that, you deserve getting disconnected.

The less powerful a weapon, the more often you can use it per game. I hope that was clear enough now.
