New Weapon - Repeating Hand Crossbow

So presently there is only one weapon in game that uses arrows.

Thought it would be great if there was other bow weapon types, such as a repeating crossbow, either under the pistol or smg category.

It just feels weird for there to be a weapon in game taking up an ammo spawn all to itself.

  • Im afraid that it would have to be a Marksman or even Sniper class weapon.

    Id love new assault rifle more. Crosbow would be just like you dont care if you find Bocek or crosbow, just not even worth adding into game. Therer is already more marksmans to choose from than ARs (You can count longbow DMR as marksman too because people are using it with 3x scope and I cant really see Hemlok being an AR someone would choose :D) which makes it 3 ARs against 5 Marksmans.

    NBew assault rifle would be HUGE and Youtube/Twith would be full of it. 🙂 It would make a boom. 🙂

    New light or energy ammo assault rifle just not a burst fire or some super high recoil one like Havoc is. Something between Flatline and R301 maybe or between Flatline and Havok.

    @Awhoo_ThunderWhy would it HAVE to be marksman or sniper? That makes no sense for a small hand-crossbow. You don't even explain on that thought.

    A pistol crossbow makes perfect sense for a new weapon. They seem to be working on a full auto Bow already of some sort tagged "Scorpion" however. A bow pistol would round out the bow category guns to 3 if Scorpion gets released anytime soon. Scorpion looks like an assault rifle based on fire rate and full auto. The pistol would be more trigger pull.


    As for energy guns they are already working on the Nemesis Energy Assault Rifle, and some interesting energy pistol.

  • I think those YouTube leaks you have watched are discontinued weapons that never made it into game (Im sure there are bunch of them), those videos are made for money from views you know ? Those leaks are 100% fake and have milions of views which means milions of cash for its maker whcih is what its all about.

    Its just a waste of time and effort for them making some Van Helsing Dracula little crossbow, it doesnt even fit Apex really. Noone would be using it anyway. If there is going to be new pistol one day it would probably be some energy ammo pistol wich would fit somewhere between Wingman and P2020, but I dont think there will be new pistol any time soon.

    I think next weapon will be finally assault rifle (absolutelly not burst fire discontinued Nemesis) because weve already got 2 new Marksmans: Bow, 30-30, new smg: CAR and new LMG: Rampage. New pistol really isnt needed especially the one which would be eating arrows. :D We all need new assault rifle.
