What items were 343 hinting at in Inside Infinite?

I can’t believe no one talks about those hints.

They teased a physics based sandbox item that will send players flying with the right timing, with tons of interactions in the sandbox. I’m guessing that was the Repulsor.

They mentioned some changes they made to a sandbox item which has been in the series from the beginning but hasn’t had a lot of love since then. What is that??

343 spoke about a new vehicle using loaded language around fire, so that obviously puts to bed fears that we won’t see any new vehicles outside of the Razorback. What will it be though? I have a hunch it’s like Ruby the Red’s reimagining of the Prowler, fitted with a flamethrower instead of the boring turret.

They also mentioned the role of the classic shotgun is being filled by a never seen before weapon. As far as I’m aware we haven’t seen a weapon like this so far, so presumably we haven’t seen the complete sandbox yet. Some have mentioned that this weapon is the double barreled shotgun in the game files, but what do you guys think?

Wait double barreled shotty? I think the shotgun replacement was the heatwave tho.

There isn’t a new weapon taking the shotgun’s role. It’s role is comfortably filled with, as it was always shared by, the Sword and Hammer.

All 3 of these weapons had the same playstyle. Get in range, press RT, celebrate kill. Now the functionally least interesting of the 3 has been removed and replaced with a shotgun that plays more like the CE shotgun, geared towards firing multiple shots to chunk down player health at mid-close ranges, instead of focussing on getting that one perfect shot when your -Yoinks!- touch.

You completely misinterpreted the point of my post, and you’re wasting your time justifying the Bulldog because I’m in the same camp as you.

“That powerful shotgun role is…we’ve already got a weapon that is never before seen or talked about that is filling that role”

that’s a direct quote taken from the Ask 343 with the sandbox team. Were they referring to the Heatwave, or some other weapon that we haven’t yet seen? That’s the question I’m asking
