I've heard lots of good points, but i have been against guns in med-evil type times since seeing it on Warcraft. I don't like seeing or using guns in that sort of time. I have never used a gun in World Of Warcraft and i gotta say nothing will change my mind.

I thought that Fable 2 is no longer set in the medieval ages?

Wasn't the setting supposed to be 500 years after the events of Fable: The Lost Chapters? By that time, it would have been the Renaissance era already (guns will surely be in existence by then).

No offense but it's called Fable for a reason. It's about monsters, magic, swords, etc... Typicly when i think of fable, i think of back in those horse riding, sword fighting, bow shooting, etc... The last thing on my mind is guns. I know theirs guns already so i shouldn't fight it, but guns in this type of game just bugs me.

P.S. The bows better have something over guns like in WOW.

Well by the looks of it it will be just the same as a bow but in a musket form.
But by all the pictures ive seen it looks like its set in pirate times sort of thing.

Scopes did exist back in the colonial times but not the way modern ones are produced with lenses. The old scopes were (simply put) a pipe with a cross in it.

Anyway my thoughts on guns is making pistols a short ranged but very powerful (200 damage?) and have reload time of 10-15 sec. If they implement rifles too they should have a range a bit shorter than the bow but dealing more damage (maybe 300 damage) and having a longer reload time (a bit longer than pistol)but to balance it a bit rifles should have a skill requirement maybe 4 accuracy (if they use the old skill system).

GUNS!!!!!.... I dont know. I think that the Fable game is just fine with out them.. I mean dont get me wrong. I love guns in games.... But for back then???? Wrong type of game for guns.. Unless very begining guns.. Like the muskets and stuff.. But still... I dont know.. Lol guns... I really wouldnt want them. But.. I guess we could try them.. Black powder pistols wouldnt be that bad i guess.. I dont know.. Or why dont they just make better arrows?? Like fire arrows... or.. Impact arrows.. Which explode on impact. or something.. I dont know.

No, I don't want guns in fable 2. It's meant to be set in middle ages. I think it'll ruin the effect.

I think they should have guns in fable two but only if it is done right like have is serve the exct same perpouse that the bow did to pick off enemys from afar like a muskut not some kind of one shot pistol or something

Guns aren't supposed to be in (MMO) RPGs. Like in Fable 1 + TLC you couldn't wait till you got ebony bow and wanted master bow and finally the skorm's bow. What with a gun -.- . ''I can't wait till I fet the red gun with spikes on it". It isn't good for RPGs because there only is one kind of gun ( and for the smartasses I mean in the time with castles and stuff not now with Ak-47 M16 blablabla..)

it would be good if the guns were sort of like fable 1 crossbows, so they aren't too fast but really powerful.

Well, there are different types of guns with different designs (provided that they're single shot ones) that exists at Fable 2's time period. They could go for gun range and damage. Better guns have better damage and longer range for example.

I kind of agree here. I find that the reloading speed at that demonstration trailer at GDC '07 was too fast. Almost like that of a single-action rifle used in World War 2 (Enfield rifles).

NO GUNS IN FABLE 2.....keep things the way they were.

Guns are a no-no. I mean guns are the reason people stopped wearing armor in our world. And I for one enjoy being an armored hack and slasher in fable. People like playing games with guns, so do I, but I play normal shooting games for that. I don't try to mix guns into my medieval type games.

If the events in fable 2 are really 500 years after the first fable game, then I can accept the fact that there are guns in it. But, I should expect the entire game world to be different by that time as well.
