You can buy the heavy weapons cert but you can't get a chaingun from a terminal. Having a heavy weap cert allows you to use one if you loot it from a dead TR player.

I'm going to start making a collection of faction weapons in my locker. Soon I should have any weapon I want/need at my disposal.
Right now I always carry a Cycler with me because it owns all the other med assault weapons.

I have a very nice stash of all the empire's weapons in my locker, if I want more, I just play as a max and fill my inv with them and their ammo to use later ;)

Cycler is owned by Gauss from what I hear.

Cycler owned by Gauss? From what I hear the Cycler owns the medium battlefield. Semi-tight CoF, 4x Zoom, and the fact it is the fastest firing weapon in the game helps too;).

well, I find that the cycler is better than the gauss, but not by too much....

The Gauss used to be too accurate and therfore over powered, so the devs nerfed it for the better of the people.

Damn communists! ;)
The gauss used to do its job, then idiots whined about it and it was summarily destroyed.
Now TR has the best of almost everything in the game.
PS is off to a wonderful start! :mad:

I love looting, in my locker on Marakov I have 6 or 7 Jackhammers, 3 Mag Scatters, and 5 Gauss. Dont have any VS weapons but Im working on it :)

umm... why do you have 6-7 jackhammers???? :confused:
I would not waste the space for 1 :p
*though I have been told that they are a bit better now, I will have to try them more on the field before I even consider that they are worth anything more than 1/2 a cert :p

So if the cycler owns the gauss, and the stryker owns the phoenix, what the hell is an nc infantry like me gonna do? Maybe i should just go tr, i dunno... I much prefer how the NC look.

TR do not have the best weapons. In my humble opinion, VS is the most powerful empire by far.
We do have the best colors though. :)
Steal cyclers like everyone else :rofl:
Wait, that aint funny :(

TR has the best color! The NC is second in my opinion, though I do have a friend that was amazed when I told him there was an empire that wore Purple spandex. Sadly...he joined the Vanu, but hes a good guy that will actually bring some humour to the Vanu side (along with lots of destruction).

Yea, Vanu seems to get even stronger every patch, which is sad because it seems NC is becoming the weakest. I'll see how things are right before retail when i decide factions. I would love to continue with NC but they totally killed our Phoenix, the one weapon we had to counter VS maxes besides tanks.
Terrans have that 1337 chaingun that i like to loot =)

I have noticed that the TR has mostly been a safe empire in terms of weapons. They are all basic, nothing too fancy... that is until recently, all the neato NC weapons have been nerfed apart ( I won't mention Vanu weapons) where as the basic boring TR weapons haven't been fiddled with too much and therefore seem to be getting an edge that is slowly expanding.
TR weapons = no real change
NC weaopons = down the drain
