Musket cartriges box is just in-game existing box. They are all around forts and arsenals. Sorry guys, but probably no musket)))

The LeMatt Hardin has is his actual lore accurate version; Brass Flower. Nice touch and good to know he hasn't lost it over the course of his long career!

[Ramiroocampo]

In my wildest fantasy Hunt has moving trains, coaches, galopping horses and a syringe that turns your hunter into a werewolf.

[CaffeinatedFrostbite]

imagine if the train just randomly goes through the map and you can ride it from end to end.

After 4 years, they finally added tenders behind locomotives. Now I can start playing the game.

The pump rifle looks like a Colt Lighting, which is chambered in 44-40 similar to the 1873, however it’s also 22 and 38-30 so which ever they choose it could rival the 1873 as a compact ammo long arm

[CH-drdr]

Can’t believe he never mentioned the snow at the beginning along the tracks and the fact that one of the crates said Vermont on it. We just had a Canadian Mountie hunter in the game and references to the North. Huge hints to the new map

[revenantchild]

Pretty sure that the 1, 000 round .57 Caliber rifle musket ammo crate is the same ones that are in the Wolfshead armory compound, also I would love to see a pump action .22 caliber rifle like the Colt Lightning model 1884 although it was offered in a few calibers (.32-20, 38-40, .44-40, .22 short, and even .50-95 express). Could be a new line from Caldwell arms company although I'm still praying that we get New Army Romero revolvers or even a Romero Rolling Block Rifle...or even a model 95 Winfield lever-action chambered in .405 Winfield (long ammo).

If Crytek didnt read community pulse that we would be thrilled to see actuall TRAIN ingame?
Missed chance

The 1, 000 cartridges .577 rifle musket crate is just an existing in game asset, depicting an American Civil War era ammunition crate that has obviously been repurposed to carry newer ammunition. (The wording on the crate is an exact match for 1861-3 era CSA crates of paper cartridges for the P53 Enfield rifled musket). You can compare this, for example, to the regular ammo crates in game, which contain resupply for whatever regular ammo you’re carrying, in spite of those crates bearing the markings of a limber crate from a ‘6 pdr’ cannon. In reality, the nominally 6 pounder shot originally carried in a crate with those markings would not have weighed 6 pounds at all, but more like 12 - 16 pound shells for the battery’s 3.76 inch Sawyer Rifles. TLDR : in game boxes and crates already contain reference to rifled musket cartridges, but, just like the regular ammunition crate that says it contains 6 pounder shot for a light artillery piece, the original contents have long since been replaced with whatever assorted ammunition hunters use in existing weapons.

[unemployedingreenland]

Crytek is always amazing with the weapon content, but it would be nice to get new enemy ai. Maybe some new death animations/sounds in the future just for a fresh feel.

[siegfriedmordrake]

Event looks cool. Hope we'll have more than 2 weeks to catch our breath before it starts, though

[hannesh]

Colt lightning carbine was a slide action (pump-action) rifle manufactured from 1884-1904, and looks pretty similar to that in game gun.

[saberman]

trains or hot air balloons would make awesome extraction sights.

[partypat]

I would really like to see the howdah pistol in the game. I think the volcanic pistol would also be neat. It could be low damage but have the ability to lever as a one slot weapon. God, I hope the train isn't just a trailer thing

[acidlord]

If they add more slide action guns, it would be cool to see Slamfire trait in the game.

[casonconley]

Flashbang beetle, flash bolt, flash traps

[jcbvickers]

So fun fact the Springfield 1886 is actually a converted musket. They added the trap door when rifle cartridges were invented so that you didn't have to pack down musket balls with powder you just open it up and insert the cartridge which is basically all of the powder, musket ball, and striker all in one package.

[Kilroy]

I think they sould add "SlamFire" trait for pump-action guns. Like come on - we already have fanning for single action revolvers and levering for lever action guns.

[Mitchpavel]

Definitely teasing the new engine. The train is a clever tongue in cheek reference eluding to the new engine being a steam engine. Plus that's why nothing new is shown off, its all things that are already existing in the game. It looks gorgeous.
