:: I'm working from both my own compilation of found weapon titles/prefixes and a disassembly of Startup.upk. Prefix comes first from accessory, then from element, and failing that gets the prefixes like "Lumpy" and "Slippery," "Leather" and "Ornery," that appear to connote nothing but flavor. Those do-nothing prefixes are associated with a grip part. [[User:Daemmerung | Dämmerung]] 08:21, October 8, 2012 (UTC) |

Table Conversion
Would it be worth while to convert some of this data into tables instead of lists? Zaszamonde (talk) 17:15, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, it's pretty long, and going to be a lot more so quite soon.... I just want to get all the data down on the page first. Tables are more compact, but also more awkward to edit. The precise shape of the tables will become apparent once we have all the data here. Dämmerung 17:34, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
I do believe most prefixes are not only brand, but also gun type specific. Not all of them though. You can, for example, find the 'React' prefix on both Dahl pistols and SMG's. --Wooning (talk) 07:55, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Since I was building the weapon title lists in the general weapon article by screencapping every weapon I found I thought I hadn't seen before (and still am), I can tell you that weapons with no prefix at all are actually pretty common. There are definitely "this weapon is shit" prefixes (most of the white weapons you get from the slots have them) and there might also be good ones, but there's no middling ones.
- Title is decided by the barrel, manufacturer is receiver, rarity is skin, I think every gun must have default accessories and any variation from those decides the prefix. Or vice versa for all, depending on which way around the engine does those. Evil Tim (talk) 08:18, October 8, 2012 (UTC)
