All the AC2 games feature trailer money shots of Ezio murdering people with heavy weapons and spears, and the first of those required a game or two before they became an actual part of the arsenal, and the spears never did- you have to steal them from enemies and can only use them briefly. AC1's trailer all the way up to launch featured Altair using a crossbow. The pistol is a part of his arsenal, but the Musket is still up in the air- though I hope it is.
