I think a neat idea were to divide all weapons into blunt and cutting subtypes. There are hammer skins that are axes, are they cutting damage? There are dual blades that are fists, are they blunt damage? Almost every if not every melee weapon has skins that suggest a different damage type than what the weapon normally gives. If a weapon like say Lance doesn't, just add some with the new monsters introduced in the title. If they were to mix this up this could offer more play styles without adding more new weapons or need for massive weapon re-tuning.

Only bad part is losing weapon identity + the damage calc. For weapon identity I feel like its always been a sentimental good idea that if you need horn break or stun monster you have to pick hammer or hunting horn, if you want to cut a tail, take a sever weapon. If they added a mechanic where there was blunt and sever subtypes then they would have to make the general diversity of each weapon be half and half sever and blunt or they would kinda lose out on a new mechanic. This would muddy the idea and many people could argue that if you ask someone what weapons they play they may only say dual blades cause they can do everything blunt and sever which kinda suck cause every weapon should have upsides and downsides so to have dual blades gain a blunt damage with half of the weapon group would take individuality from current blunt weapons. The second one is blunt or ko calc, stuff like dual blades would have to have massively low stun damage to offset the fast attacks and constant movement. I should say I have had the same sentiment and wished stuff like the Vaal Hazak hammer would do cutting damage but I think cost would outweight benefits. I still think its super interesting and I like it alot

I'd definitely love to see halberd/spear, the Demonlord Halberd longsword design is awesome and I want it to be a proper new weapon type.

I would like to see a fist/blaster weapon. Like a transforming katar that can be a blaster type of gun. This would also give them a chance to incorporate moves like shoryuken and hadoken… which I personally think would be cool 😅

I think a weapon that might share insects with insect glaive could help make insect glaive feel more integrated with the rest of the weapons, however it'd a bit hard to see what kind of weapon would ice that, in general i think a boomerang that has some ranged attacks along with melee blunt would be neat

I think that kinsects should be clasified as a pet type that you can carry with you if you want to... rise separated them from the glaive and gave them special techniques, they could allow players to wield a pheromone launcher(a reduced version of the mechanism the glaive uses to command kinsects) that operates kind of like a slinger and let us mix and match with other weapons... of course sword and shield will be cool with that.

Would love to see them bring back the playable Palicos, personally

So this weapon already exists in Wild Hearts in the form of the "Claw Blade", but I would like a Chain Scythe weapon to be introduced to MHWilds. It doesn't have to be exactly the same, but a hit and run swinging weapon would be so cool Imo. It could work like a whip that you could "Stab" into monsters to reposition yourself. Alternatively, they could have a fist type weapon so you can actually punch the crap out of monsters. Martial arts combat with "grappel" mechanics (Similar to the Clutch claw) would also be interesting.

a giant boomerang that you can also use as a sword is something i thought of a while back and i think it would be so damn cool

I'd like to see a weapon that has the ability to go from melee to ranged more dynamicly. Insect glaive *sort of* does that a little bit, but not to a very satisfying degree. Either that, or a fully committed melee weapon, a fist weapon essentially, mixing a bit of blunt damage with dual blade-like tempo.

They should make weapons behave how they look. I remember seeing a straight axe designs act as hammers. Also remember when the longsword design was a greatsword and thinking how silly that was. When you see dual maracas you don't think cutting damage you see blunt. Maybe the best thing to do is just make the weapons do the thing they look like they should. An axe hammer or hunting horn would change the game more than a 15th weapon would! A blunt damage greatsword would be epic!

I think, if we'll ever see a new weapon, exactly because of the reasons that you mentioned in the video, would be right now. Monster Hunter World was the best selling capcom game ever. Ever. So for the sequel of their all time best selling game, we can be sure they will throw all the money at it. Scratch another project to assemble a team to design a new weapon archetype would absolutely be in the realm of possibilities. And its not like there arent fleshed out ideas in place already. We have the Frontier weapons as well as concepts like the Wyverian Boomerang. But maybe I am just biased and really really want a 4th ranged weapon in the game.

My personal favorite weapon suggestion I've seen was gloves/gauntlets. Just fist fight the monsters. Would this be a _good_ weapon? I dunno, probably not tbh, but it'd be amusing.

The weapon Im the most desperate for is a punching gauntlet weapon like a slower high damage blunt dual blades, Tonfa are kinda like that but it's too fast and the airal moves are too much, but if they grounded the weapon and made is slower it would slip perfectly into the niche I want Id also be happy to see the accel axe and medium bowgun return, and a whip/Flail weapon, a spear, and mabye a dual Crossbow type weapon after that I think all niches would be filled and we don't need more I also don't want to see Magnet spike, that shit can stay in frontier

I would love to see a whip or a boomerang. I think it would be really refreshing, there could have a lot of flashy moves. Also this would bring a new mixed melee/range weapon type !

I’d honestly love to see some kind of knuckle-type weapon that just lets you run up to monsters and punch them directly in the face. Would honestly work insanely well with the Street Fighter collabs MH loves to do.

The only argument for why implement a new weapon in the portable game as opposed to Wilds I can see if "They are already adding so much new stuff", which at this stage isn't really much of an argument to begin with. We don't know exactly how much they are going to change with Wilds and how resource intensive it is going to be. There could easily have been enough dev time and resources in order to development multiple new weapons for all that we know. Also, do consider that they could reintroduce some of the Spinoff weapons as well, which probably would be less work since a lot of the groundwork is done, they just need to make it work in a modern game. The Tonfa would be my pick

I’ve said it for years but I think a solid weapon idea would be a giant boomerang like Sango uses in Inuyasha. A melee weapon with a ranged component that isn’t reliant on ammo or coatings would be a really fun addition, but so are 99% of my idea for weapons and I’m 0% sure they’re realistic.

I want a settings option to swap hands, i need S&S right handed.

I always wondered: would it ever be possible to “compress” two classes together? For example: lance and gunlance. I love both. Deeply so (used lance back then a ton, use gunlance nowadays because their skills were amazing) I’ll look this up more, but what prevents the two from merging? (Personally I just wish the gunlance had better button mapping for combos)

I really want a fist weapon of sort, like tonfas or something else It would just be fun to beat the monster with your fists

@IndominusRex-wc1ey

4 ай бұрын

Tonfas were in the spin off Monster Hunter Frontier so there's a shot for them to bring tonfas if they brought in Espinas from that game for Sunbreak

Assuming it focuses more on open world, we definitely need a new weapon that can cover huge distances like magnet spike's attack that lets it attach to a monster far away

Whilst I’m not exactly a monster hunter fan I kinda know what you’re talking about, something like rooster/power creep right? I wonder how long players will be satisfied before getting restless without a new weapon, and how it will be dealt with in the future 👀

The frontier weapons like the Tonfa's would be pretty cool, or even some kind of gauntlet weapon that could charge up similar to a charge blade or switch axe, to do more powerful attacks for a limited time. Also lance peaked with the Agnaktor Lance in Tri imo, as being able to drill into a thunder lizard under water, was so incredibly satisfying or even doing the same to Agnaktor with the Barioth lance felt extremely rewarding, but after leviathans more or less disappeared from most of the mainline games, i felt like Lance became more of a meme than anything else.

I think the current arsenal is adequate in covering all the combat styles. I think the thing that is missing is more squad support type weapons like the hunting horn. Also, we should make some of the weapons extreme in their strengths and weaknesses, and synergies/combos with other weapon types

i agree that it would be more beneficial for capcom to try out a weapon in the next portable release but i do believe that they could take one of the already experimented weapons (my bias being towards the tonfas) and put it in wilds

I agree with you. Another detail is that right now all the weapons are actually grouped into pairs, as illustrated by the streamstones used for high rank augmentation in the base game in world. The only two that aren't a great match imo are bow and insect glaive. Whenever they do eventually add more weapons, I could see them adding two to keep the pairings. Perhaps a boomerang as a simple ranged counterpat to the bow. As for IG, im not sure, maybe something like tonfas to match its aerial melee theme, alternatively another weapon that features a pet.

A greatshield weapon would be nice to add with a blunt close range move set with a ranged "Captain America" shield throw combo that can deal slicing damage and provide a similar buffing playstyle like charge blade

i wanna see large bulky gauntlets like Vi's from arcane (i thought it suits the bulky nature of monster hunter weapons) , and instead of it being super "mashy" and quick combos i feel like it should be more focused and centered around timing and opportunity (sorta like boxing) and i've seen people point out the fact that they want kicks but idk that wouldn't really make much sense so i would imagine it more like a medium speed brawler type weapon that throws some nasty hooks and uppercuts maybe even have a meter for it so that when you get better timing it would reward you into a big finisher type move like the longsword anime slash or a rocket powered falcon punch move of some sorts.maybe add a some sort of parry or defense move like putting your hands up to block and voila, you got that mike tyson build you always dreamed of not really sure how sheathing/unsheathing your weapon would look like though so i think that might be enough reason for them to not add it in, if that's not possible then i would love a scythe type weapon

Personally, I'd love to see the tonfas come back as blast tonfas that combine short-range, blunt attacks similar to dual blades with explosive charges for both damage and mobility tricks.

Gauntlets, which are split into two categories: Blunt - Heavy gauntlets, punching, attacks are only slightly faster than the hammer but they are just as powerful, high chance to stun monsters if landing a lot of punches one after the other Sever - Claws, a lot of wild slashing attacks, fight like a rabid animal, fast & mobile, lots of jump & lunge attacks, high affinity Or maybe it's all one weapon and you can switch from punching gloves to claws and combine their movesets. And if you time the attacks correctly when switching from punching to slashing, you attack faster & deal more damage. They could also do what Wild Hearts did and have swords that can turn into whips. Except instead of a katana, it's a broadsword. Like, a cutlass, a dadao or a khopesh. It can hit a monster multiple times with one swing in whip form. Has a lot of range to make up for it's moderate damage. Dual wield maybe? A mace/one handed hammer that turns into a flail for more range and more impact. Increased part break chance when in flail form. Paired with a medium sized shield that has spikes at the front. If you time a block right, the monster takes damage from the spikes and gets pushed back. The spikes remain attached to the monsters and depending on what type of weapon you have equipped, it will affect the monster in different ways. If you have a poison weapon & shield, it will cause poison build-up on the monster. If it's a blast weapon & shield, the spikes eventually explode. Or maybe chakrams. Can be used both in melee and as a throwable weapon at the same time. You throw them and they come back like boomerangs. Can charge up a throw to either hit a monster multiple times or to hit multiple monsters if they are next to each other. I can even imagine Nargacuga chakrams that look like giant shurikens. A rapier that can turn into a spear. A lot of fast thrusting attacks in rapier form, very agile and has high affinity. Relies heavily on having to dodge a lot and then taking the opportunity to unleash a flurry of attacks. So basically, you dodge an attack, go in and attack, dodge again, rinse and repeat. The better you time a dodge, the more damage you deal. Slower attack speed and movement speed in spear form, but has more range and deals slightly more damage than when in rapier form. Can charge attacks for more damage and impact, which can push monsters back or knock them to the ground. The spear can be thrown at a monster and it will remain attached, dealing continuous damage to the part that it's attached to, which causes said part to eventually break. But you will have to go and retrieve the spear if thrown. The spear can also be thrown at other surfaces, such as walls. You can use it to then climb up higher to either ambush a monster from above or to catch your breath before jumping back down. Dual handcannons. Wield two large pistols that closely resemble a revolver. Depending on the monster that they're made from, it can have one of the two following firing modes: Burst fire, for a more agile and chaotic playstyle. Has low damage and can be innacurate at times, but you have high mobility which allows you to quickly reposition yourself after each shot and is very effective at aerial combat. Also has very fast reload speed. You can flourish the pistols to increase movement speed even further. Requires perfect timing however. Single shot, for a more slow and methodical approach, meaning that you shoot once with each pistol and then you have to reload, so choose your shots carefully. Boasts high precision and high damage. Shots are so powerful that they can break parts with 2 - 3 shots from each pistol. They are heavier than their burst fire counterpart, resulting in a slower reload speed and movement speed. Has a devastating charge up shot, where you use both pistols at the same time. The charge shot pierces through monsters, breaking all parts caught in the way and can even hit monsters that are behind them. However, you will then have to wait for a couple of seconds for the weapons to cooldown, due to them overheating. Keeping the pistols holstered during combat, will have you do a fast shot with both pistols when you attack again. You also gain increased reload speed and affinity damage for a few seconds.

i'd like some sort of whip weapon. dodge attacks like ls, long range attacks that attract you towards the monster like a forwards wirebug. maybe some heavy attacks could do stun damage, it could also whip other players out of snowman status and sleep. tonfas could be cool weapons as well. another stun weapon, air combos, constant and oppresive playstyle.

A different take on the boomerang type weapon would be cool. Close range melee, mid range throw. Like kinsect there is an option between sever and blunt. I would play that

Whilst we have the dual blades and sns for cqc i think it would be cool to have a transforming fist weapon. Something that builds charge and then can do a animation locked high burst dps beam not dissimilar to the switch axes discharge move

I think the problem with adding new move for lance is that, the point of lance is for you to be hyper defensive which allows you to continuously whale on the monster when other weapon would need to dodge/reposition. defensive move capcom could add is guard, parry, and...that's about it really. there's dodging, but it doesn't seems like capcom want hop lance to be the main think. if they add too much offensive move, it won't be lance anymore. I think the best option capcom could add is probably self-buff (like anchor rage) or utility move (like clutch claw counter for easy tenderize).

honestly, since they'll never bring back prowler mode, it would be really cool if they compromised with a new weapon type that let you synergize attacks with your palico. i just wish they were more involved in the hunt. so why not an entire weapon moveset dedicated to it? or maybe the palico IS your weapon??? a palico launcher????

Tonfas, Magnet Spike and Fist Weapon To Wilds

@rinnnnnnnnnnrin

We had a fist weapon in the tonfas technically. But if they could make the fists unique from tonfas then I welcome it(wouldn't be very hard tbh)

A new weapon needs a new purpose. Like a fighting style. Maybe like a ball in change swinging in circular motions. Hit the button at the right time and you keep up circular motions. But now it's just a ranged hammer. Switch hammer? Lol. Bring back the gravity weapon.

I would love the return of tonfas, accel axe and/or magnet spike. I think if Capcom would like to bring back some type of clutch claw/wire bug mechanic, a whip weapon can probably bridge that gap. Use the whip to grab onto monsters like a clutch claw or to grab terrain for wire bug like movement. Of course to a balanced degree 😂.

I just want them to bring back the Tonfas or Magnet Spike from Frontiers man. both of those weapons were so cool

I feel like somewhere along the way they have to bite the bullet and put a new weapon into the main franchise. Given the nature of always online gaming, its pretty unlikely we'll ever see more than 1 main series game per generation going forward. Were far more likely to receive an expansion set similar to how World got Iceborne from now on. Which means if you are going to add a new weapon to the main franchise. It either comes with launch, or comes with a expansion. I could see the possibility of a new weapon coming with an expansion, however that might prove somewhat troublesome aswell. My primary concern being the expansion is likely to build apon the existing weapon tree like previous titles, does it really seem worth while to go back and add a whole pre-expansion weapon tree for content everyone is about to move-on from playing? Move-sets are likely to be expanded once again (assuming Wilds trims them back again, Longsword I'm looking at you) meaning that's all the more effort the designers have to put into trying to give the weapon not only a base move-set but and expanded one as well. Personally, I don't necessarily like the prospects of that either. Regarding Gen 6 specifically, Honestly it might be the best time to add that 15th weapon for the main series anyway. My personal feeling is that its apparent that World set the groundwork for what Wilds will expand on. I don't think well see quite the same re-imagining of what MH:World was to MH:4 as if you think about how much changed it was rather extreme. Personally, when it comes to what they should add. I like the idea of reaching back into the catalogue of existing non-main franchise weapons, my personal vote would be Accel Axe. But I can also see Tonfa's as a likely candidate as well. I think the magnet spike is interesting, but a lot of what was build into its kit for Frontier feels like it got reworked into clutch-claw for Iceborne. Obviously no confirmation that its returning (please no tenderize capcom). Honestly, I haven't ruled out the possibility that we get not one, but two new weapon for Wilds. But thats just my two cents on the matter.

Another dual wielding type I would say or a short range javelin where you can also use to throw.. maybe carry like 5 where they replenish after a while of throwing or you can pick them up off floor or off mobs 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think 14 isn't close to how many weapons they can add I think I saw around 5 or 6 amazing unique ideas that could happen, I think we will get to that time of it being hard to add something unique maybe at the 24/25 weapon mark? we only have 2 blunt weapons, a quick hitting staff would be very cool, we only have 2 morphing weapon, a weapon that switches between blunt and sharp modes 1 to gain energy and 1 to expel it (maybe like tonfas but can morph?) a melee range weapon hybird like a great shuriken + gloves to punch them into the monster and they act like boomerangs? a axe weapon that focuses on heavy quick chops that drain stamina and need perfect positioning (and while that would arguably be a mix between GS and hammer I think that is such a nice sweet spot for a new weapon imo) thats 4 weapon ideas that can be expanded into full MH weapons that add new playstyles I though of/remembered on the spot! also I think if they add new weapons it will be even numbers from now on just because it makes the UI look cleaner lol also for the new models and VFX they had to do redo them all with world (yea models sucked in world but capcom were in a really bad spot when world was being developed), and maybe even with rise because it was a new engine + the palamute all had new armor and weapon designs for them! I don't think there will be any net negative knowing that wilds is on a better engine with a bigger budget and a bigger team than world's will I be mad that we don't get a new weapon? nope as long as our weapons still get updated and the game itself is really good I won't get sad over it

Forget a new weapon, give me the option to switch dominant hand! I’m tired of constantly feeling off by swinging my sword with the left hand!

I would love to see the Magnet Spike come back. That thing was awesome. Otherwise a melee/ranged weapon like a boomerang would be awesome.

A flail would be the most interesting addition a game like this could have. A giant spike ball attacked to an exaggeratedly long chain. It would fit the over the top aesthetic of the game and add a very unique weapon not seen in a lot of titles.

Always wanted a fist/glove weapon. Blunt damage, but faster attack speed than hammer, rising uppercuts to hit heads. Sometimes you wanna punch a dragon in the face.

I'd like to be able to carry two weapons of my choice, actually. I think it would be interesting.

As someone that mains bowguns, I would love to be able to carry an alternate weapon(that isn't the stupid ass gunbow bonks). A boomerang would be a wonderful new addition and would pair well with gunbows as a ranged melee weapon :D but regardless of that, two weapons would be great

That idea has kind of been implemented in the Stories series (if you are sleeping on Wings of Ruin , then stop sleeping and wake up and play it. Its awesome) Your character can ghave 2 or 3 weapons in your "tool belt" ready to swap in combat. Stories is also heavily the reason why Rise made mounting the way they did. It's like in between Hunter and Rider while also being a magical Ninja. Rise is ...over the top haha. But that's not all bad. Many design choices I wasnt necessarily for. But some especially weapon design (not the combat though) I really enjoyed.

this is actually shown in the monster hunter wilds trailer as on the back of the monster the character is riding you can see a light bowgun while he also of course has a great sword on his back. this could just be cosmetic and you cant swap them out but it may be a mechanic in the game.

I wish Monster Hunter Wild had a greater and better variety of tools for the hunter to use. example: the rise owl (and any equivalent) can be used to locate monsters and send items from one hunter to another; the return of the Mantles (and almost everything from iceborne and world, other than the clutch claw, including some moves that use the slinger and clutch claw), but better balanced and with a more interesting selection; the idea of ​​being able to tame small monsters for support and mounting, but with it being more varied in functionality, such as speed, resistance to the environment, load capacity, types of tools such as the umbrella and the rise machine gun, etc; the rise wall run, but with the functionality of the world; the types of bombs and knives in the riser; have the palico gadgets system from world but with the palicos and palamute training and summoning system from rise; certain missions have as a reward the construction of shortcuts on the map, tools such as the GH battle tank or equipment for followers and even a ballista in a cart; and in addition, a greater variety of biomes, like a mine that some monsters use as an anthill or missions in inhabited cities/kingdoms/villages, like a cameleo stealing and causing chaos in a shopping center

I think they could take a page from For Honor's book with the design. For Honor has I think 32 diferent warriors and each one feels like you're playing a completely different game. it might be a bit of apples to oranges with this comparison, but it's definitely possible to keep going in terms of weapon designs and functions.

7:40 dude, rewatching this, I feel so bad for Anjanath, he is terrified and can't get up lol😢

If they don’t add a new weapon I really hope they keep the Iceborne changes at least.

I personally don't see the need for a new weapon. If they don't add any other one I'm ok, I already main 6 weapons and don't plan on changing any of them. On rise I needed to learn 12 playing stiles what made me really bored and on sunbrake another one I barely got to the basics. I truly don't want that again. One I can take if needed be because I want to try one weapon I haven't used yet, but I have already 4 I haven't touch so I don't mind.

I want to see the accel axe return

Ill be surprised if the new weapon isn't a slinger adjacent type weapon. That was fun in world and i miss it in rise. Constantly flipping through shit to throw a flame ball is awful and i guess i should just put it in my quick wheel but i dont know if it will allow be to throw all balls in my possession or if i haft to register each ball separately....not to mention the snake , cow trop locust , and skunks.

7:56 dude Longsword isn't even in the top 3 of the strongest weapons. they really should nerf the ranged weapons

Monster hunter has so many offensive weapons. I hope a more trap based support weapon is added. Something like a whip/laso with additional trap slots that can stagger and trip of keep certain parts of the monsters from being used for a short duartion.

Hear me now: a boomerang. A boomerang which combines fast sweeping attacks, like a long sword, but that can be thrown in order to, for example, take a monster down when its flying, or to stun it by aiming for it´s face. Also, it could have like a motion battery, similar to a switch axe, that gets depleted when throwing the boomeran, adding more damage and stunning capabilities, and refilled when hitting melee moves. And, when you overcharge this motion battery, all the melee attacks make you slide because of the unbearable energy your weapons has, making them harder to recover from. But also, when overcharged, you do not throw the boomerang, you can RIDE IT, to get on top of the monster and get rid of the overcharge with a massive mounting attack, similar to the magnet spikes plunge. I believe we need a melee/ranged hybrid weapon, and this is what i suggest.

i want to see a great shield, maybe gauntlets if they aren't just shorter range hammers, maybe just lance without a shield,

Kusarigama - chain and sickle

Capcom should have zero reason to struggle creating a new weapon. Even though I love MH games they are literally just reskinned games with the same monsters. The only new thing with each game are the maps, one new combat feature, and handful of new monsters. I find it hard to believe they don’t have the time, resources, or creativity to give us a new weapon

imagine Monster Hunter weapon: WHIP with maybe claw or sth like that

Skipping new weapons for gen 5 made a lot of sense considering how radically different it was than prior generations. If gen 6 is just an "open world" style then id expect one or two more weapons. If its a huge formulaic shift like world was then probably not

Some elemental fast bludgeoning weapon would be interesting

sry if this is a dumb question but which game is this? 8:00

Early concept footage of World, there were plans to include Lagiacrus but was ultimately left out of the game.

The best ones to add would be the accel axe and the tonfa. If each weapon has to have its pair then duel blades pair with tonfa and accel axe pairs with switch axe. Then charge blade pairs with SnS. All of these pairs make the most sense and maximize player interest.

you forgot about the medium bowgun

Wilds is the perfect game to introduce a new weapon type. Many people jumped into this great franchise with MH:World. Thus, giving them a new weapon will make them come back.

World was already perfect for a new weapon. Rise even more perfect (like Kusari-gama, batons, gauntlets, etc). I wouldn't be surprised that instead of adding another weapon, Wilds launches with not all 14 basic weapon types from the start.

@@thenonexistinghero I disagree. Capcom would never again ditch out some weapons from MH games. It's not going to happen. Games will always be shipped with 14 weapons. They learned the lesson in Tri. Always include all of the weapons to not upset fans. They can add weapons not subtract them. Regarding World being the best game to introduce a new weapon type, again, I disagree. If they can do it, they'd probably subtracted weapons from World not add more. Just to simplify the game even more, to reach a wider audience. Now they reach that wide audience and they can promote the new game with new weapons to justify it.

@@Kara_Pabuc Capcom already cut out the final 15% or so from base Rise to deliver it in the form of DLC. Tri already came out 14 years ago in Japan, over 15 years by the time MH6 releases so 'lessons learned' don't exactly count. And yes, it is easily possible for Capcom to launch the game without all 14 basic weapon types. They can just use the excuse that they do that to give them extra polish and then release them later. Capcom has learned that releasing content in a certain way works to keep content fresh for longer and they most certainly aren't above doing that for weapons. I'm not saying it will happen for sure, I'm just saying that... you shouldn't be surprised if it does happen. Capcom wants Monster Hunter to be like live service games. It's just far more profitable. And I don't think they're going to follow the same kind of schedule they did with World/IB and Rise/Sunbreak. They did that, it worked, but they no doubt want to push it further with MH6.

​@@thenonexistinghero Not sure what you're talking about regarding Rise. I am talking about weapon types like longsword, greatsword, chargeblade, dual blades etc. There are 14 weapon types in MH games. They did cut weapon types in original Tri and never ever do that again. They are not going to, say, drop sword and shield in the Wilds. It's not going to happen. The chances are 0, nil.

@@Kara_Pabuc And that's where you're a completely delusional fanboy. Capcom doesn't care about the fans, they care about the money. If they think cutting weapon types and releasing them later will lead to more profit, they will do that.

I think this is why having titles that are more willing to try crazy things with combat and weapons are important. I’m sure that titles like Sunbreak and frontier help evaluate what they can get away with and how comfortable people are with certain things. I have faith in capcom to nail the next game.

Bring back gun parts. Like in tri to have small medium and large guns. Then add a weapon... maybe

i either want another ranged weapon or another blunt weapon, or both! we have plenty of blade representation

I think if we do get bew weapons, they need to be a hybrid of melee and range. Like a boomerang or some sort of flail. And no, ginlance doesn't count as such.

For new weapon types that I'd like to see see... 1st.) Fist weapons. This is always my go to with new weapon videos in any game. Perhaps incorporate the move set of the Tonfas into a more punch-punch playstyle, focusing on fast hitting bludgeoning damage. 2nd.) The Frontier weapons. Speaking of "new weapons", just bring back and expand on the weapons Frontier players had. 3rd.) A proper spear archetype. No, not Lance, not Insect Glaive... I see the other comment threads. I'm talking about an actual spear. I'm thinking something along the lines of either the classic Myrmidon look or Wushu or literally any of the countless examples of spear-based martial arts we have in the world. 4th.) A smaller, faster, slashing counterpart to the Hunting Horn. Maybe something a long the line of "Blade Harp" or "Sword Sax" (The image of a Greatsword user with a saxophobe jutting from the back of the sword popped into my head and now I'm giggling).

I’m fine with new weapons so long as they don’t feel overwhelming or too fantastical like some of the weapons introduced in frontier.

I started playing dauntless and it really made me want a new weapon in monster hunter, theyre so unique and fun on there.

I anticipate a drastic shift in the weapon system, but it won't be a new weapon. I predict a major change to how ranged weapons are treated - they may become a sort of "secondary" weapon that all hunters can access alongside their primary melee.

It made sense to not add a new weapon in Gen5 considering the massive undertaking bringing Monster Hunter to current gen must've been. That said, if Wilds is open world like everyone thinks, it still might be a huge endeavor, and a new weapon still may not come.

I honestly still havent found a weapon I liked, even after giving ALL of them a good shot at it, the best I've gotten was Dual Blades but even then its still not of my taste. What I've been dying for is either a two handed weapon that is built around sharpness *while* being agile, I like hammer but its too slow for me, I like dual blades but its too close for me, so really, an Axe, a decent axe, not massively large, but decent.

Great Spear/Glave: Heavy mid ranged weapon with charge attacks and high damage combos. No morphing, no bugs, no shields. Maybe give it a meter that changes the moveset just like dual blades, but it would be fine if didn’t have one and play like great sword. Giving the roster more options for slow and heavy weapons

I wanna see a fist weapon or some nunchucks that’ll be pretty cool

I just want Axe, literally a lighter weight sharper hammer style weapon. I want just Axe

A trap master would be nice
