Of different models of the same weapon?

Like, Holly SRM launchers vs Starstreak Heavy SRM launchers?

Weapons that would have the same theoretical DPS but different performance characteristics?

It'd be a PITA to balance right so if anything like that is implemented it should be in the distant future, but...

Ok, I'll be honest.

I just want a autocannon that sounds like the chaingun from Brutal Doom.

Or this:



Or this:

Anything with a chance over 0 has a probability of happening.

I think once we get the pewpew truly balanced (for the most part) then it's easy to pile on new equipment as you have your benchmarks set. Plus they've mentioned different ammo types (not talking about 'Gold' ammo, so let's not turn this thread into that), just not on the radar yet.

I honestly would not care one bit if it was PURELY cosmetic, as in the game literally functions exactly as it does now (well, with tweaks :D) EXCEPT that ON MY END it looks (and sounds) like I'm firing a minigun :o.

I heard this will be added with, or after CW. The idea is, capture a planet with a particular manufacturing facility and you get that facilities version of the autocannon which differs fro other models.

In Concept Stage*, but no ETA:

Different Models (Manufacturers) of Weapons that will have slightly different quirks or functions

Is it specifically stated to work the way I suggested, or is it likely to be something lame like +1 to damage or -1 heat generated or stuff like that :angry:?

I asked this question in one of the Ask the Devs! (#31) and they said "possibly, we have a design for it".

What 1ShotPaddy said. Seems like something that will happen as it wouldn't require too much work, just make sure the quirks are balanced.

When they implement this, I will take full credit for the idea.

Go ahead, check my post history, I'll wait :angry:

Everyone is using my Q&A with Bryan about the games demographics in the 3PV thread and I'm not seeing a F'in dime.
