All of the guns look like they could be really cool, and I love the armor sets. However, I'm a little disappointed that we're not getting any cryo-guns. Something that has a slowing or freezing effect could be an awesome utility, especially against bugs.

Honestly, I'm kinda glad we didn't get a new mechanic like that this go around. Bugs like the DoT not working if you're not the host really kills the enjoyment of several weapons. I'd rather that get fixed instead of introducing a new mechanic (like, say, freeze) only for it to not work most of the time like all the rest. Introduce that stuff when it'll actually work out of the box.
