==Production notes== | |||
The name "WST" likely comes from the [[1999 (real world)|1999]]-era third-person builds of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', where the [[Cut Halo: Combat Evolved weapons#Shotgun|shotgun]] was named the "WSTE-M90 sacs" where the name derived, like all other weapons in the build, from the shotgun in [[Bungie]]'s ''[[Marathon]]'' series, the [[marathongame:WSTE-M5 Combat Shotgun|WSTE-M5]].{{Ref/Twitter|Id=TwitterMarcusWeaponNames|game_fabricator|727601612441559045|Marcus Lehto|Y=2021|M=5|D=23|Quote=Some were asking about all the weapon names in this old #Halo PC build.}} The names from said build were all named by [[Robt McLees]].{{Ref/Twitter|Id=TwitterMarcusWeaponRobt|game_fabricator|1388531022246023172|Marcus Lehto|Y=2021|M=5|D=23|Quote=Robt McLees named them all. I'm not certain I got the above list 100% correct since it's pretty hard to read the text in this build.}} | |||
