However, once upgraded, the Rivet Gun becomes a very versatile tool that can hold a large amount of ammo and fire very quickly and accurately essentially making it the perfect pistol of Dead Space 2. Sadly, the Rivet Gun is so weak un-upgraded that it is nearly impossible to dismember/kill anything other than Pack in one shot.
Rivets work very well against The Pack, Slashers, Crawlers, Exploders, and Swarmers.Cutting down the leg of a charging Necromorph and then triggering the alt fire immediately will ensure that the rivets in the cut off limb will ricochet into the fallen Necromorph. Rivets can sever body parts if aimed carefully.With its fast rate of fire and cheap ammunition, the Rivet Gun is great for closing up hull breach safety doors.Rivets can be fired into a surface and then triggered to set off a shrapnel storm as a Necromorph approaches. The Rivet Gun can be used as a "poor man's Detonator".The closest Necromorph can be packed full of rivets and then the secondary fire used to turn the shot Necromorph into a living shrapnel bomb, resulting in minor damage to the entire group. The Rivet Gun is most useful against tight groups of Necromorphs.The Rivet Gun can be crafted in Dead Space 3 with the right parts, but this time the Explosive secondary function discharges ALL fired rivets instead of only five, but deals a lot less damage compared to the previous version. When in the inventory, it seems to affect item pickups in a way that favors the Rivet Gun, in that the odds of collecting an abundance of rivet ammo as opposed to ammo for other weapons seems to be high which may be intended to compensate for the Rivet Gun's high ammo consumption and low damage. It has a default of 16 rivets per magazine and a maximum of 24. The rivets are also relatively inexpensive at the store. The primary fire shoots almost as fast as you can pull the trigger and the secondary fire detonates up to five of the rivets currently fired out of your gun and makes them bounce off the walls of the room you are in. As revealed in the Gamestop trailer for the Rivet Gun, it is a rapid fire weapon that can pin Necromorphs to walls. The 711-MarkCL Rivet Gun appears in Dead Space 2 as a pre-order exclusive from Gamestop and was later included in the Supernova Pack.
