Well, now that I've thought about it, they really only teased primary weapons in their video a while ago, and they're planning on releasing this update in Q3, so there is still time for them to tease secondaries as well, but at the same time I can totally understand just adding a new primary for each class cause of how much effort has to go into it.
The prototypes were neither primary nor secondary, but tests of concepts. The details were still up in the air at that point.
There will still also be a secondary for scout so that might be the crossbow?
Edit: My bad, there indeed will be no more than four weapons, so one for each class. Sorry bout that!
There won't be more than four weapons.
While I totally understand it from a dev perspective kind of sad we didn't get a full set (1 primary and 1 secondary for each class). Hopefully it comes sooner than later, I envision the game in it's final-ish state having 8 guns for each class. 4 primary, 4 secondary. (And maybe like one more alternative support item and special each)
Edit:typo
Four weapons this round. Adding a weapon to the game is very resource-heavy as it needs mods, overclocks, skins, and paint jobs, and considering we need to add at least four at a time + try to balance them toward the other weapons and the game mechanics, it's a huge task.
To the bone!
First confirmed weapon for Update 35! Title is the filename.
Well, for a variety of reasons:
- People such as myself have actually tested the radii and damage values
- People such as Elythnwaen and GreyHound have been able to extract the true values via game files and console commands
- The developer Dagadegatto himself confirmed the numbers from the game's editor
In general, I recommend believing what's posted in the Wiki and on Karl.gg more often than what's displayed on the in-game terminal. Both of those websites are the culmination of dozens of people doing thousands of hours to figure this stuff out and share it with the rest of the community.

Hey Jacob, when's the hotfix coming?
It’s out.
Personally I agree and would love this, and I am totally lobbying for this to happen, but if it happens it will require a new system, which is out of scope for 34.
Rise and take your seat among the grumpy brothers of the pickaxe.
This idea seems like it's getting some traction... I'll summon a
greenbearddev to see if we can get a response on how hard it'd be to add to an update. Whatcha think, u/GSG_Jacob ?
It's a fun idea, but I imagine it would be a feature that's very circumstantial and dependent on region and current player activity, which makes it very hard to pull off with a satisfying result.
