One thing I do know about all the weapons in MH4 is,they play about the same as their 3rd Gen counterparts except with added attacks.Anyway the Bow's Arrow Rain Attack has been replaced with a quicker Crossbow like quick shoot(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ot8LPUfwxk 16:09-16:42).With the other weapons(Atleast from what I've seen)not much change from the 3rd Gen countparts.All we could really go by is the TGS Trailer for the other weapons(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQHHRoegHCw 1:30-1:52),the official site pictures(http://www.capcom.co.jp/monsterhunter/4/buki_01.html ), and magazine scans http://www.siliconera.com/2012/09/06/monster-hunter-4/
