All wrong, it's going to be an NC exclusive gun that fires scattermaxes.....Oh and it'll have an under barrel shotgun attachment.

Flamethrower

[Gatekeeper]

Vehicle flamethrowers would be cool.

Or an ES Lightning gun. I want my Lightning to fire purple death-orbs!

[PredatorFour]

A grenade launcher that fires one of every grenade ingame at once. It also has a secondary mode where it fires hackers at you.

[Figment]

Gauss cannons and fluxpod launchers? ;p





Where's my Thunderer dagnabbit?

[mcFlaw]

How about a Prowler Turret with two gunner seats?
I could run both a Walker and the nubetube-whatsitcalled for maximum flexibility, at the cost of one extra kill for that AT-mine engie and one less soldier in the Sundy.
Would be fun.

Of course, I'd much rather get a Main Cannon with it's own gunner seat, but that's a different issue.

The quad-barrel gun looks neat, I'll give them that.

[Stanis]

It's obvious they've got an engineering team worth a damn on Auraxis.

So they're taking burster weapons and retrofitting them on MBT and ESF
They were working on a mount for the liberator but decided to retrofit the Max itself into the gunners seat.

Following the increased effects of gravity on Zephyr rounds someone had the bright idea of testing them at ground level. New HE for MBT and lightning will have a 6 shot rapid fire snub nosed mortar. Sometimes it even reloads.

TR engineers were attempting to retrofit the NS Annihilator lock-on tracking to their MBT. VS stole the plans and decided to retrofited the NS Annihilator using the TRs reload mechanism. Common pool lightning modification that looks like a MLRS. Targetting is tricky for now it's still restricted to AA/AV lock-on only.

Rumours abound that following NC efforts to bring an empire buggy to auraxius all three factions are revising their heavy assault AI weaponry into heavy variants for light vehicle mounts.


Well. We can wish.

They do have a gun that shoots Mosquitos in the admin client.

[Assist]

I'm guessing a Liberator gun, because they're not strong enough yet. Probably napalm with a 100m radius, since the Zephyr sometimes allows an infantry player a half second to move, now they can move for a full second but are guaranteed to die.

T-Shirt guns to give away swag!

Swag is a term used in the 50s for gay movie groups to get together. On the posters, if it said "swag" it meant "Secretely We Are Gay." So, if you say swag, you are secretely gay. Your argument is now invalid.

What would be really nice, is if they introduced something completely new. Not just more variations on existing ones.

I'm talking about something more than just a new gun that shoots harder but slower or whatever.

Stuff like AV/AA EMP cannons. Low damage, no blast, very high disorientation. As an AA weapon, that could cause some pretty hilarious results.
Just an idea.

Shockwave based weapons? Low damage, high blast radius, pushes units away from the point of impact. Off cliffs or airpads maybe?

Time-fused bouncing HE mortar shells, for surprising those window-snipers?
(actually a horrible idea now that i think about it)


Not saying any of these ideas are any good, but you get what I mean.
I'd love to see something _new_!

I want my PS2 Vanguard to get the PS1 Peregrine's energy turret weapon.
