Electrobaton#

Gta2_electrobaton.png GTA2_Windows_Electro_baton.gif A half-working weapon known as the "Electrobaton" can be found in the game. How it works is: first, a bullet is shot. If it hits a pedestrian, an electric current is created between the weapon and the target but the targeted person never dies. When used against human players, the Electrobaton causes them to slow down and continue walking even when the player stops holding any buttons. Using it against cars has no effect (i.e. only bullets are shot, without electricity). The Electrobaton makes no sound, unlike the constant buzzing noise of Electrogun. The Electrobaton has an unused pickup weapon sprite. Concept art shows a SWAT cop holding one, thus making it possible it would have been used when the cop dropped it.

Instant Vehicle Bomb#

Similar to the regular Vehicle Bomb, except it explodes immediately after triggering, leaving no time to escape from the car. Perhaps meant for a suicide mission of some sort?
