Yes i want a "one and half hand sword" more know as bastard sword
 
Too many of these weapons seem similar or the same as ones we already have. A bummer really. I would like to see the long sword style reture. Link from Soul Calibur II seemed to be the only charater to ever use it. I was hoping it would be a create character style for III and then IV but no dice. You don't even need Links signiture bomb, Rang, or any of the other garbage they gave him from Super Smash Bros. I would expect a cross slash type technique at the very least though.
 
I'm just hoping for more 2 weapon combinations.

Hilde had a long range and short range weapon combined because individually each would make for a single dimension character.

Ultimately, I realize that the moveset "perks" could really make-or-break a weapon design.

You have the solid all purpose weapon/moveset (like mitsu's katana) but you could have characters like tira (with random mood switching) seung mina (dmg increase on tip hits) ivy (multi stancing) maxi (auto looping stances) that could really make a dull (well thats a relative term) more interesting BUT balance is always slightly harder once you throw in more variables.

Ever since SC1 I had always hoped they would introduce a 3 section staff.

YES! I was wondering if someone would mention 3 section staff, I've wanted it for the longest time. Around the time of Soul Edge or Soul Calibur there was another weapons based fighter (now faded into obscurity) that had a character that used a 3 section staff, don't see why we haven't seen it in Soul Calibur yet.

It's as or almost as versatile as the nunchaku (nunchucks plural) but with more range and better defensive capabilities.

Also Jackie Chan used it in Shanghai Noon :D

Looking through Namco's Soul Archive at their old SC concept art, here are some weapon ideas that I found interesting:

I would kill to see that second design! Actually, I would kill to see most of those designs... I'm surprised these weren't used, seems like such a waste.
 
The original tonfa girl was sooooo much hotter than Talim

The second of second line is so much Ninja Scroll
 
Seeing this concept art makes me feel good. It makes me think "Thank god theres a guy on the staff who's probably has said "That concept is a little too manga-ish"". I feel a little safer. At least until the new character reveals are all BESM'd characters wit steampunk weapons.

I wish someone was weilding the Trident, or instead of making Zas have the scythe replace him with the real grim reaper with badass dark powers.
Also, a ghost staff that transforms into 3 (or more) different weapons will be tight
 
OK I got this idea for this weapon. It's a hollow steel tube, closed on one side. We fill the bottom with a mixture of magnesium sulphide, charcoal and potassium nitrate. Then we pack on top of that a lead-tungsten ball. We point the open end of it to someone we don't like, then we heat the closed end until it goes pow!

I call it... the powtube.
 
^ reminds me of someone. Actually this could be cool, pulling sh*t out of your sleeves.
