The CS27 Misfortune is a weapon in Just Cause 3.

Description[]

It's a bullpup assault rifle, meaning that the trigger group and the bolt assembly is behind the main grip, making for a more balanced weapon.

The Rebel drop description is "For the burst fire lovers out there, Capstone delivers with this highly accurate bullpup. You can shoot the hat right off of someone's head with this thing!"

Some items had a different rebel drop description before game launch. This weapon had: "Following the success of the Predator, Capstone developed a semi-auto rifle for accuracy and power in mid-range firefights. The result is the Misfortune."

It has a very strong resemblance to the Kel-Tech RFB. It also somewhat resembles the IWI MTAR-21. A C-More Railway red dot sight can be seen attached to the top alongside a (somewhat redundant) front flip-up iron sight.

Performance[]

The weapon fires in 4-round bursts. Each round shares the same damage with the Urga Vdova 89, which is the highest damage among the automatic weapons in the game. Unlike the Vdova however, the Misfortune has much less recoil and is significantly more accurate. This, coupled with its lack of automatic fire, makes it more suited to mid-range combat, where the Misfortune performs best. It can also perform well in close range if one can master its burst fire, as one burst is more than enough to kill most regular Medici Military enemies, with tougher enemies like the Black Hand soldiers requiring two to three bursts.

Due to its high damage, it is also great for destroying Sabotage Destructible Objects.

Trivia[]

  • It's made by the fictional company CS.
  • In the "This is Just Cause 3" trailer, the weapon was known as the "CSV Assault Rifle". That name can now be considered Cut game content from Just Cause 3.
  • Despite being called the CS27 in-game, writing on the side of the weapon reads CS72, it's possible the numbers have been reversed by mistake on either the weapon model or the weapon's name. (Visible in the image at the top of this page).
    • That naming issue might be a reference to the AK-47 and the AK-74, which look identical, but weapons of this type were not available in 1927.
    • On real weapons the number often refers to the year of designing or the year when it was accepted into service, but this type of weapons were obviously not yet around in 1927, so it is possible that CS72 is the correct designation.
    • Could even mean that the weapon is about 27 inches long.
    • 72 could indicate that it was built or started production in 1972.
    • 27 or 72 could also simply be its model number.
    • Which ever way, it is unknown what the 72 stands for.
  • This weapon is the only burst-fire weapon in the game.
    • This weapon is also the first weapon in the Just Cause series to have a burst-fire feature.
