Think we'll ever get actual new weapons?

[Wulfen]

Having essentially the same weapons I played since launch (but really, Fallout 4) makes for a stale experience. There are a very tiny few exceptions but I was hoping we'd have a lot more weapons by now. So many previous entries worth of weapons just completely unused. It's a shame really.

Edit: I think many of you conflating new weapons with variants of existing weapons (Cold Shoulder, Scythe, Gauntlets, etc). I'm talking actual new weapon types or weapons that are unique

but we literally got new weapons every season :D

last season = Cremator
this season = Head Hunter Scythe

The Cremator is for sure unique but isn't that Scythe just a pickaxe reskin with some unique legendary effects? That is why it has the same mod pool and why pickaxes were bugged to give you legendary modules for scrapping them.

Cremator sure.

Head hunter scythe is literally a pickaxe variant (which is why we couldn't craft it during that Legendary core pickaxe exploit recently). And cold shoulder; A cool gun, but is also just a variant of the double barrel.

Skyline valley introduced another melee weapon (hardly a NEW weapon) with a bunch of legendary variants. Nothing new. Just stale easy to make content IMO.

I would love to see weapons like the Holorifle, the Fallout 3 Sniper Rifle, the AMR, or even the Junk Jet.

Again the only one I would really say is Unique would be the Auto-Axe otherwise Cold Shoulder is just a double barrel (granted it is basically a craftable god roll) and the Ogua Gountlet is just a Bear Arm reskin.

We have been getting new weps including cremator, just at a super slow pace since Bethesda takes their sweet time to release content.

Auto-axe is the only weapon from your list that I would argue is a unique weapon.

Which is another issue. One "new" (and i use that word incredibly loosely) weapon every 3 months is piss poor for a live service game IMO, considering the WEALTH of existing weapons this franchise already has

That’s a good point. I hadn’t put 2+2 together on that, but it totally makes sense.

[intlgunmonkey]

I’d rather see more stuff like Fixer (same weapon we already have, but base effects that redefine it), and tweaks made to make stuff that is cool but isn’t really useful (Make 10mm Great Again!).

After the Cremator, I don’t think any of us should be too thrilled about Bethesda adding new guns to the game. Some DEI pride-hire is going to give us crap that kills every enemy on the map, and flashes blinding unicorns and rainbows on the screen for 30 minutes… for each shot.
