"Twisted Metal 4" Special Weapons Quiz

Answer: Energy Ray

It is a weak special, but it drains the enemy's health and gives it to Meter Maid. It's good for when there are no health pickups around. You can just drain an enemy's life away. Also you don't need to aim the special move, because it is a beam and it detects and attacks enemy cars that come within a certain range.

Answer: Teleorb

It is a short range weapon that flies forward several feet and then stops. When an enemy car gets in range, the Teleorb tries to grab them and keeps a good grip on the other car. After several seconds the orb detonates and freezes the enemy, doing minimal damage in the process. You can freeze yourself with this if you stop in the middle of the beam.

Answer: Cannon

Since he is a pirate it makes sense that his special is to make use of the cannon on his car. The cannon can lob the cannonballs a good distance away. Once the cannonball hits an enemy car it does impact damage. As well, it lights the enemy on fire for more damage.

Answer: Nuke

It is a very powerful attack that can take away at least half of an opponent's health. It has minimal homing abilities in the sky which is good. Once you fire it, you must press the fire button again to detonate it. It sets enemy cars on fire. Be careful as you can damage yourself with this if you are too close to the explosion.

Answer: Toxic Spray

It is a close range weapon. It is a greenish fire that acts like normal fire. His vehicle is a cockroach car indicating he is a bug catcher. It makes sense that he uses a giant toxic spray to attack his opponents.

Answer: Pizza Cutters

They have good homing abilities and do good damage as well. When you fire them, two pizza cutters appear and head towards the nearest enemy. It is good because they attack regardless if the enemy is in front of you, or behind you.

Answer: Microwave Shockwave

It is a smaller version of Axel's attack. It is an extremely close range attack. It is good for when there are lots of enemy cars around because it tosses them back a few feet.

Answer: Ion Cannon

His special attack works similar to the freeze bombs and remote bombs. When you press the fire button once, a small icon is released on the ground. When you press fire a second time, an ion cannon blast hits the spot doing lots of damage to any cars in the arena. Be careful because you can also damage yourself with this attack.

Answer: Gatlinger

They are just speed missiles. The only difference is that they recharge at the rate of around one every two seconds. They have no special abilities and act just like normal speed missiles.

Answer: Hornet Missiles

When activated the suitcases on top of the car fire three homing hornet missiles. They have weak homing powers and are pretty slow. They do decent amounts of damage.

Answer: Flamethrower

When activated the engine springs to life and fires a powerful flamethrower straight ahead. It is a short range attack that requires the enemy to be straight in front of you. Since Drag Queen has poor handling, it is best to freeze the enemy and then use the flamethrower.

Answer: Zombie

It is much like Orbital's Teleorb. The zombie flies several feet ahead and stops. It has a strong ray that brings the enemy cars in close. After several seconds it detonates and damages the enemy as well as sets them on fire. Be careful because you can also damage yourself and get on fire if you stand in the middle of it.

Answer: Hydraulic Lifters

Instead of using the lifters on trash dumpsters, he uses them to lift enemy cars and slam them into spikes. The enemy car must be directly in front in order for the lifters to work properly, otherwise the weapon is harmless.

Answer: Crusher

His special is actually the same as his name. It too is an attack requiring the opponent to be right in front. It crushes the opponents cars using the jaws on front of the vehicle. It does lots of damage.

Answer: Quasers

They look a lot like Sweet Tooth's special. The Quasers go through walls and home in. All they do is fire energy rays at enemy cars. Unlike Sweet Tooth, the Quasers don't fire missiles or breath fire.

Answer: Megafire

When activated the flamethrowers on the car roar to life for about ten seconds. It does tremendous damage if you keep the fire on the enemy. It is best to freeze your foe first, then get close and use the Megafire.

Answer: Ray Gun

It is a short range laser. It does a decent amount of damage and also sets the enemy car on fire.

Answer: Supernova Shockwave

It is a close range attack that repels enemy cars and sets them on fire. It is good to use it when you are surrounded by lots of opponents.

Answer: Auger

It is the name of the giant drill in front of the vehicle. When activated, it spins for around ten seconds. It's capable of doing lots of damage if you hit someone for all ten seconds. Also, the enemy car must be directly in front of you in order for it to work.

Answer: Loader

He uses the front end loader to pick up and slam his opponents. It does good damage if you slam the enemy all three times. Also, the enemy car must be directly in front of you in order for it to work right.

Answer: Serpent

It is called the Serpent because the weapon moves around as if it was a serpent. The attack lets loose three powerful missiles, as well as a freeze missile. It takes a pretty big chunk of health off an opponent.

Answer: Henchmen

This is the most powerful attack in the game. It homes in with deadly accuracy. When fired, three colored heads come out of the car. The blue one brings you closer to the other two, the green one pelts you with missiles, and the red one breaths fire. You may survive this once if you use your shield, or if you teleport away. You are really lucky if you survive this. You may survive once, but no car can survive two Henchmen without getting health in between. Also, be careful, if you use the special a lot, the game may freeze.

In deathmatch mode, if you choose Sweet Tooth as your car and all the computer cars, there is a good chance that the game will freeze.
