3rd weapon slot

[zonzon le raton]

I got very used to the fanny pack gadget that gave a third weapon slot in the early access.
Is there an upgrade that gives the same perk ?? I don't see it...

I also couldn't find or see it even though I have beaten the game. Is it even in the game? Someone help.

Nah, they removed it, and from what I can tell there’s no perks that give you a third slot, so I’m not sure really.

That's disappointing. 2 options is dreary.

I've never played with the third weapon slot, so I can't comment on that, but in the time that I've played I almost exclusively use 1 weapon to the point that perks like Hot Potato or Favorite Weapon don't even have a downside. What makes you want to have a third weapon slot?

Two options is all you need. A gun, and a support/melee weapon. Be it a Flaregun for marking, Minion Box/Buddy Bot/Hive for Minions, or for using Shovel/Sword.

Part of the challenge of the game is using what you get, and making choices about what you'll take and leave behind. Having yet another weapon slot will either be left as neglected, or remove the downside of losing your only other weapon slot on Hot potato-esk Perks.

That might be the case, but 3 or 4 weapons would be more fun.

Explosives.

It would also be unbalanced, because the game doesn't intend you to carry an armory around.

Explosives.

I use explosives as my primary?

I used to like it for running weapons of three different elements and for relying on pocket reload.

I don't think it's 'necessary' but I don't think reintroducing it would significantly hamper balance. It could even come with a downside such as making it take longer to swap weapons.

Maybe this (and similar significant boosts like, e.g., a 5th class perk, again possibly with an added downside) could be an option for in-run purchase with Crystal Powder.
