Do you think they'll bring back tonfas and magnet spike in a future DLC?

I'm full of copium but a man can dream

[KingOfFriedChicken]

Probably not, whole weapons as part of DLC? It would be better to launch the game with em.

Altough the daggers do have tonfa skins but I imagine it's not the same.

[JPM岩]

In a DLC, no, and even then, tonfas and MS would get reworked so much to match a non-Frontier game, I feel their magic would be lost.

Have they ever released a new weapon with an expansion?

No. The odds of a new weapon in an expansion is extremely unlikely for that reason alone. The earliest we might get a new weapon is if that weird survival mobile game adds a new one (but may not count because it's a spin off), or if the same team that worked on Rise adds one in their next game.

Give us a chain weapon. Arkveld inspired.

A kasuri gama or that weapon in the Ninja Gaiden franchise.

[Tenz]

No.

We could do with another blunt weapon IMO.

Maybe give us a greatclub or nunchuks.

We already have big bonks in hammer, so a fast blunt weapon would make more sense. I'm not a fan of nunchucks though, so I rather have the tonfas or just a quarterstaff. Maybe for the latter, they could go Sun Wukong on it and make it extend and whatever.

The way dual blades are used is kind of almost aesthetically similar to tonfas sometimes. At least, I think that's the reason tonfas didn't come back.

The way Kite (in the original .Hack games) was sometimes swinging his dual blades reminded me of tonfas back in the day. Though I suppose the original 4 games generically encompasses more than just dual blade users into the twin blade class. As Sora uses Katars and is also in the twin blade category.

If they can have axes that turn into swords, they can have a quarterstaff with pneumatic extensions.

I can kinda see the reasoning behind that and as a possibility why they never made them a mainstay after Frontier got shut down. The quarterstaff I suggested would probably be the best choice for a faster blunt weapon then, and could be quite interesting if you could extend and retract it.

Yeah. I think it could be a very fun weapon if that's what they choose as the 15th weapon in the future. But, they don't read Steam comments. Although I could always suggest it for the beta survey.
