The Weapon of Mass Destruction (or WMD for short) is a weapon in POSTAL 2.
Description[]
The WMD is shown as a rocket launcher with significant modifications. It's tan in color, has two thin pipes with red valves, and a rounded red barrel featuring a drawing of a dog's head surrounded by green bubbles (this can be easily seen when HUD is disabled). The weapon itself is one of the best in game. It does more damage and has higher blast radius than the Rocket Launcher. The explosion creates green mist, but it does no damage, unlike the Cow Head's mist. If somebody is be caught in blast radius they will take very high damage, so insta-kills are likely. However, players should be aware of this weapon's power and take out the targets from a distance safe enough to not get hurt by the explosion.
The WMD owns another benefit; if victims survive the single attack from this weapon, they will be downed and green mist will appear coming out from them. They will vomit until killed by same or other weapon. If somebody (including the Postal Dude) goes near an infected body, they will get infected as well and take damage. There are two types of attacks: primary fire shoots a straight ahead lightweight rocket, and secondary fire shoots a heavy bouncing rocket that is affected by gravity and will explode after some time.
Location[]
The WMD can be found only in Tora Bora, an area that is accessible through the Obligatory Sewer Complex. There's always only one terrorist with a WMD equipped who comes to attack you after you clear the factory and force the cutscene which unlocks the box holding another WMD.
In Apocalypse Weekend, it can be found on Sunday inside the military base, in one of the crates inside one of the several identical open depots with gray walls, later on it can be also found on the top floor of the Greasy Panda restaurant during Apocalypse as well.
In Paradise Lost, the WMD may be found atop the entrance to the Winter Wonderland along with two WMD rockets on Thursday, which can be reached by crouch-jumping upon the wall.
Trivia[]
- If one is arrested with the WMD in their inventory, it will not show up in the police station.
- After patch 1409, when firing with the primary attack, the Postal Dude will reload the weapon, while there's no reloading animation for secondary attack and player can shoot continuously with that. This is very likely a bug. In previous game versions, reloading was present for both firing modes.
- When Hell Dogs are hit by this weapon, they will kill each other quickly until only one is left.
- This weapon cannot be obtained by cheats, unless the player has found it before. This makes WMD a "secret weapon".
