How about Weapons?(Swords,Bats,Shovels,Guns)

[Altair77]

Equipable weapons that you can swing,shoot,strike with them the enemies. Like aiming with the mouse/axis and shooting/swing when you equip it.Also a button to holster it (if its a small weapon) and use your fists to hit/grab stuff.
This sounds a little too much Gmod in my mind ...but i dont see what's bad about it...After all the game might end up rather popular (which i hope so).

I know that maybe its a bit too early,but still its a good idea in my opinion.And if someone don't like it you can add an option to not include weapons in the match.Or maybe variable options like which guns to spawn etc.

Non-blades weapons are planned and going to be added.

Hmm, I remember seeing a couple of requests similar to this, although they are a lot older - Nothing wrong with reviving the idea.

Something like this really seems to have very mixed opinions, there are people who like the idea and people who don't. Also, it also depends if we are talking about melee weapons, and firearms - Which we are talking about both.

For me, I don't think it would be a good idea for the vanilla version of Gang Beasts to include it firearms. Though, some melee weapons may not really be a bad idea, but I still think punching, kicking, headbutting, etc should be always be the main ways of attacking. Although, once this game has Workshop support, it would be very cool to see more weapons for both melee and firearms.

Boneloaf is planning to have 'sharp' objects like little pieces of glass, windows, cups, bottles, etc, along with bats, pipes, bricks, TVs, chairs, and stuff like that. They said they are not doing firearms, however.

I think this game should have guns. But just dont turn this into shooter game. Because Star Beasts will have laser gun and Grim Beasts will have magic. Then why can't Gang Beasts has some guns?

Guns would probably be super inaccurate with the floppy nature and controls of the characters. Guns would probably work best as a ranged enemy type of sorts.

The devs already said they don't want to add guns to the game so their lack is confirmed; like Darkjanggo said, they want to add not-bladed weapons to the game from objects you can find in the enviroment (bats, bricks etc., Darkjanggo already took the time to list some of them). Anyway you can still throw objects at the enemies so you can actually try and attack from a distance (just grab some small objects and throw them at other player just like you would throw a player, it deals little to no damage though and haiming is really hard so it's basically just a waste of time...) and the devs plan on making some objects have special interactions (for example they plan on letting you oper doors/fridge doors real quick and slam them in your enemies' faces, or throw your enemies into TV screens and break them...)

Do you have any source that Star Beasts having laser guns or any source that players in Grim Beasts will be able to use magic?

Grim Beasts will be a fantasy adventure game set in a magic world with natural enviroments like forests and oceans (on boats of course), it will have many kind of character types (sword dudes, magicians that can cast spells, big muscular guys etc. The strong dudes were able to grab, lift and punch people and objects; the devs noticed how much more fun playing as them was and they decided to bring the "physical fighting" style of the character into a whole different game they decided to call "Gang Beasts"); the players will have to cooperate to get trough the hazaurdos biomes of the wild islands, there will also be lots of boss fights against huge creatures like gicantic crabs and abnourmous octopuses (thus the name "Grim Beasts")
Star Beasts will be a space-themed sandbox game where you'll have to build spaceships and explore other planets looking for precious materials and resources (with the addition of annoying aliens), it's not know what the word "Beasts" could mean in the game as the devs shared little to no informations on this game... (and laser guns aren't confirmed by the devs, while everything else I wrote in this post is actually took from YouTube/IndieDB message from Boneloaf so they're "official"...)

Hmm. Didn't know how much the Beast games were gonna differ besides the setting (aka fantasy, sci-fi and modern) makes much more sense now why they are gonna be different games now.
