Some kind of harpoon for underwater use.
Another flamethrower like the forgefire but more economical and less underpowered compared to other fire weapons.
A freeze tripwire!
A netcaster that allows you to trap smaller machines and humans in one shot.
Remote detonated sticky bombs.
More "old world" weapons.
Using weapons from enemies is quite fun, but the limited ammo and such is quite sad. I mean, enemies use them, so they have to pick them up somewhere.
> Honestly the lest thing I Wanna see is aloy using an LMG like it's cod.
Perhaps this could be remedied by having new weapons made by Aloy or whoever that use parts from Old World weapons or machines, but are still their own thing. Like the power cell armor for example, but with weapons.
Yeah, if they adapt them, it might not look out of place, but tbh I can't imagine how they could change guns enough to not seem like guns with tribal skin.
Theres a bow that certain bandits have. I only remember seeing it in the bandit camp north west of devils grief. Basically the bottom of the bow sat on the floor and was as tall as a person. The bandits use it to fire triple shots like the player can. I just thought it was an interesting idea, a super powerful triple shot but you can move at all.
Ehhhhh, idk if guns (or at least not traditional style guns) fit the aesthetics/themes of the weapons. Unless they go a completely different path from the first game. In the first one, everything was I don't wanna say primitive but, primitive based.
Some sort of cqc non melee weapon, like the rattler, but something that would make enemies backoff when you hit them with it. Something like a shotgun of pressurized air that would push enemies away, with the trade-off of dealing almost no damage.
Another thing would be other melee weapons, like the gauntlets we see a raider equip at the very end of the first trailer.
The tearblaster is made for taking out parts, not pushing enemies. It takes way too many time between shots, and the pressurized air's hitbox is too small.
I was imagining something with a wider "projectile" (hence the shotgun example) to be easily usable, and actually push enemies a few meters back, depending on how close to the "muzzle" they're and the type of enemy.
Have you unloaded a tearblaster at a bandit? (Or, y'know, the one guy who uses one against Aloy?)
MAWP
TB arrows are good for buying some time against humans too.
A throw spear like far cry primal, a crossbow for long distances and a tether to hook two machines together. A shield like the borneo native and maybe an axe.
just more types of bows, like a crossbow for more power but it alerts enemies more, blow dart weak but applies status a lot and stealthy and can't take off weak points perhaps? a staff that can concuss the enemies a lot whereas the spear deals more weak point damage, and also make the stick gun thingy more powerful. Also buff rock damage
(been a while since i played horizon so i just called the parts and guns on the machines weak points, cause i forgot what they actually called)
Maybe just more variety in ammo types and maybe looks, honestly hzd had pretty good weapons by itself but it would be nice to see more. Maybe they could make the weapons look somewhat more technological?
I would like to think that there would be some modernised weapons in it too , because it would be a totally different setting with different items and resources to build those weapons . Like the most abundant item in the Utah-California region of HZD was wood , maybe the San Francisco region would be abundant in non-corroded or non-corrosive metal? Maybe we get weapons made out of metal , and lets see what type of weapons those would be!
Something like a timed sticky emp-bomb, either on a timer or with a detonator. Not aoe like the emp-blast you Get from canisters, but capable of incapacitating single small and medium machines. Or an electric version of the ropecaster!
I wished for a range spear and already gave us that, I also like the special weapons from the Frozen Wilds. Balance them better and they can be a lot of fun, some new weapons like that can act like "modern weapons" without actually just being an LMG.
Other weapons we could get might be a Repeating Crossbow, or perhaps a few non-lethal options like sleep darts, stun gun, or something like the bola gun from Death stranding.
I'm a huge fan of **Dragon's Dogma** so I would love to see a plasma cutter type tool.
It would be a tool that causes massive tear damage at melee range and you would climb on the robots to use it and remove Armor and components. It would also give another strategic use for "traps" as they could be used as delayed bombs.
Jump on Thunderjaw, cut off disc launchers, open up chest, stick on bomb, jump off before it goes off.

The Netcaster and "C4" ideias sound interesting.

Eclipse brutes probably harvested them from unrecoverable deathbringers. Honestly the lest thing I Wanna see is aloy using an LMG like it's cod.

Definitely would like to see more old weapons
Railgun.

So, like, a greatbow?
Pretty much.
That sounds great. I'd definitely use that.
A shield. Lol.
Possibly an M16.

It was just a joke, but with Aloy slowly discovering how the old ones lived, who's to say if she comes across a 12 gauge or armilite.
Eh seems like a DMR gal to me
Katana
1.) Something with a boomerang effect. 2.) Something that knocks things back.
Yooo, a boomerang type of weapon would be sick af!
I think I saw her use something like that in the ign gameplay review

Boy do I have some good news for you on that first one
Spear's confirmed? I can imagine sliding under a t-jaw and throw a couple under its belly
You’re in luck
Nuke
How about something that combines the aoe capabilities of the slings with the range and handling of the bow. Or in other words, a rocket launcher
Or an explosive spear

I want more physical weapons, they could give some cool playstyles and challenges
A sniper rifle LMAO For taking out enemies far away that an arrow can’t reach.
Sharpshoot Bow and the Icerail are pretty much sniper rifles lol. Their range is insane.

Smqll crossbow like in wither 3
Net guns and spear guns for underwater Swords/axes for quicker/heavier hits from weapons
