Monster Hunter Tri allowed players to mix and match three different parts of the Bowgun weapon. However, this feature was removed in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.

Explaining why the team decided to cut the functionality, director Kaname Fujioka told Siliconera:

“In Tri, we experimented with this system where you could mix and match these Bowgun parts. The problem with that was that it got really, really complicated. When it came time to make a new iteration, we looked at that system and thought it would be too difficult to expand upon without making it even more complicated for us to make and users to understand. So, we did make an effort to simplify it a little bit.”

“Now, we don’t want Bowgun users to feel [the system] is too simple or uninteresting, so there is a certain level of customization and methods of making Bowguns to suit your playstyle, with the way you can remove the Limiter.”

Fujioka did at least have an interesting tease to share for fans of the Bowgun:

Finally, our second winner of the Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate weapon design contest is revealed! I present to you the Clockwork Contraption, created by Agent Spectre:

Clockwork Contraption has been revealed as a fan-created weapon for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Take a look at it below:

Capcom has also confirmed that the Link armor and weapons set will be in the western release of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Fans can also count on “more special equipment like this”. There will be news “soon”.
