(PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG!!!)

Second video down.

I noticed 2 things.

1)The weapon that Maya is using looks bizzare..to me it looks something like a crossbow. Anyone know what it is?

2)In either of the videos, there is seemingly an "action bar", if you will. Do we know what that is? I kind of think it's being played on the PS2 so it is some quick action bar, but so many spaces!!??

Again, please correct me or comment as you see fit.

1. I believe that is a cross-bow.

2. I'm not exactly sure what you are talking about. Are you referring to the weapon selection menu that comes up whenever Ethan switches weapons? If so, that is the action palette. It is present on the PC version as well.

2) Well, what I see is something that is barely visible. I'm fully aware of the weapon selection menu, but this is something else. It is just above the image of the equipped weapon. It seems to almost be see through.

Awesome, looks like there's a crossbow now. Oh, and when she actually shoots it, I can see at least 3 bolts fire.

the bow has been announced a FO weapon for a while now. hopefully rangers will be able to use them well at later levels.

And heres a picture proving it. (FO's getting bows...O.O I rymed...)


Back on topic, thoose videos are awsome, and I wonder if the crossbow will be a new weapon class(rare class like PSO) or come from the "Bow-class" http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif I hope its a new class, it adds more variety. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
