In the Direct (and other footage) we've seen quite a collection of different weapon types and ways to engage combat. Pistols, rifles, shotguns (and the different ammo types), melee weapons, fists, a couple of shots showed a dev playing primarily with explosives.

What kind of weapons are you planning on using? Often times I try to stick to one/two weapons (depending on the game and skill-system), but I can see myself at least trying out every different kind I find on my first playthrough :D

What about you?

Oh, I just noticed I forgot about space combat - tough I'm not too sure if it makes any difference in gameplay, or if it's more a "use weapon type X to attack their defensive element Y" until you can board/destroy/whatever?

IIRC, I stuck with longer guns like rifles and machine guns in Fallout 4, and in Cyberpunk I focused on shotguns. I'm thinking I might try pistols to mix it up, stealth sniping, ooor maybe shotguns again and those multi-bullet laser targeted weapons that I can't remember the name of now.
