What's the difference between a brick and a bottle?

I've played The Last of Us a few times through, and as my "distraction" weapon I've always preferred bricks over bottles. I think that's mostly because in my first playthrough I saw Joel smash someone's skull in with one, but that's neither here nor there.

Is there any actual advantage to either one? Are there any differences at all? Or am I just deluded by the amazing cinematics/graphics into thinking my brick is superior?

Bottles are a better distraction weapon. From my experience, Bottles make a louder sound when smashed, providing greater distraction to enemies.

Bricks are definitely a stronger melee weapon. As far as I remember, a Brick gives you a 3-hit melee, which should take out an enemy.

So, I would recommend:

Stealth:- Bottles

Attack:- Bricks

Bearing in mind, a lot of the game is based on stealth.

Is there a difference between bricks and bottles?

While the two are very similar, bricks have an advantage over bottles when it comes to combat. As they don't break immediately after one use, bricks can be used to kill Clickers. Bottles will smash after just one hit, leaving you vulnerable to a clicker attack as they cannot be killed by Ellie's switchblade.

Works on every ennemies on the game except all you have to do is select the brick or your bottle ( keep in mind that a bottle do much more noise ) and throw it at the ennemy with R1 when a little circle appears on him then quickly run at him and smash him with your melee weapons ( pipe , 2x4 etc.. )
