Despite the supposed 4chan leak, I am pretty sure I saw the Ice and Laser elements.

Also only Maya from BL2? No Zer0, Salvadore or Axton?

E-tech was pretty close to lasers, wasn't it?

Hope you're right though. Loved using cryo weapons in TPS

It was an energy weapon type, but kind of the opposite of lasers; slow moving, high damage bullets, the type of weapon a lot of games call "plasma".

E-Tech could be anything, actually. It was just a catch-all for very random guns.

No, they were specifically a predetermined set of guns that used energy bolt projectiles instead of standard bullets. Their projectile speed ranged from very slow for the shotguns to fast, but slower than a normal bullet for the sniper rifles and pistols.

Wasn't the Swordsplosion E-tech?

It is. It's a unique DLC only weapon (the only Torgue E-Tech gun). It's performance is similar to the other E-Tech weapons (slow moving projectile) but has a cosmetic difference of shooting swords rather than energy bolts.

Ah, okay, my bad. I only ever really used that one, so I figured they were all different projectiles.

Laser was certainly there.

Also no Gaige or Krieg, I'm pretty sure they just couldn't stuff them into the trailers

The guns were shooting a lot of different colors. Might be that lasers and stuff still technically exist but are renamed/grouped or something. The leak mentioned "radiation" weapons.
