Guild Wars 2 - Possible Gun Art? - Page 5

Those guns looks great. Good to see Anet arent just creating some normal looking guns. The one with the ice around it, a couple of the pistols and the one with axe around it looks great. It does bring up a question though - would the small pistols be duel wielded and the larger rifles be 2 handed?

non of the weapons looks like it belongs to the Sylvari. except the last one, but then again the last gun also looks like an Asura gun. but then again, its too simple to belong to a race that is highly evole in technology. hrmz ...

More then likely the rifles would be two handed,but the handguns could go duel or one handed. I hope they make all one handed weapons duel wieldable.

I can't quite see a Sylvari or Asura using some giant Norn Battle Axe Rifle.

But you must admit it would look quite funny!

Not bad Anet, not bad at all.

I think they would if their survival depended on it.

Looks good so far,hope they end up being big (especially the scythes).In my opinion they ruined the last gun with the bayonette by giving it a hippy look...

kupp · Aug 24, 2009, 05:38 AM

Nice find. Don't really like the guns, was hoping for something more fantasy like, but still good to have something.

Daniel · Aug 24, 2009, 05:41 AM

Guns in GW2?

Hm.

I agree, the one labeled as sylvari is more likely to be Norn than anything else.

If anything, that gun resembles a Kroot gun seen in WH40k.

Indeed it does look like Kroot fire arm... And if memory serves me right it was used also as a meele weapon heavily which begs to wonder... Will the firing power be only part of the weapons capability.. hat if , just like Kroot Sharpers, we will be able to use it as a blugeoning weapon?

Garreth MacLeod · Aug 24, 2009, 06:27 AM

Nice find. These remind me of flintlock pistols and arquebuses. Those do seem like logical technological advancements from GW1 if one thinks about it.

Shemsu Anpw · Aug 24, 2009, 06:36 AM

It's been stated that armor and weapons will no longer be class specific I believe. So build and skill using it will be more important. The guns are really awsome looking should be fun. Scythes are a little meh except the one on the right is a little interesting. I'm sure bows and guns will be fundamentally the same. Bow faster little less damage. Guns little slower with more damage. Fair trade-off for the uniqueness of it. I'll be glad to see them when they come out.

DarkWasp · Aug 24, 2009, 06:40 AM

Can't wait to pick one of these up and shoot at the first poor unsuspecting creature that crosses my sight.

Stay away from me Mr. Rabbit until 1-2 days after the beta starts.

They look great.

Elk · Aug 24, 2009, 06:45 AM

personally i'd like all the guns to be like the sylvari one, or look more intricate so they'd look more medieval.
