Well okay, there's not much... New sword looks a bit dull, but non-lethal stealth people might appreciate these:
Boltcaster: An accelerator that electromagnetically launches a bolt to deliver a non-lethal neurotoxin to the target. Alternate fire mode toggles a scope.
Glass Destabilizer: Vaporizes glass with ultrasonic vibrations -- breaks the glass silently and does not trigger alarms wired to the glass.

Yeah, Gamespy promised us this big preview of Invisi-War about all the factions, and then gave us that......what a let-down. I was really looking forward to that, and instead we get like 12 crappy weapon shots (none of which are in-game) which were nearly all in the first one (oh wow, a riot prod!) and about a line about it (the assault rifle - fires bullets AND grenades).
The only slightly interesting thing about it was the weapon mods at the end
The idea of spending more ammo on an "EMP shot" is interesting - no more my pistol kata specialist lugging around a crate of specialist grenades in the event that one sodding armed-to-the-teeth dustbin should get in my way.
Now I can just tap "B" to change ammo and BLOW THE THING SKY HIGH!
muwuhahahahahahahahahahahah
- Good work Ion Storm!

Well this does tell us one thing. The odds of lots of useless weapons has gone up. Anyone ever use the knife in DX? Didn't think so. It seems that they are also sticking with tried and true guns/mods, with the exceptions of the Destabilizer, EMP, Frag round, and MAYBE the boltcaster. It's seeming alot like DX1.5, with the exception of the graphics. Oh well as long as the stories good, itll still be a damn good game.

erm, most of those things look uglier than DX1 - the hand to hand stuff looked like something outta Halflife

So, the minicrossbow has a new name.

Fire Extinguisher
The fire extinguisher is able to put out fires in the environment. It may also be used to temporarily blind unprotected organic opponents. Each canister has 3 blasts.
Soda
Why drink cola when you can nuke yourself back to health? The only cola for smart people on the go and recovering zyme addicts.
Tools of the trade.:D
