Can we get some more of the weapons that available in 3050, IS had ER lasers of all sizes, LB-X cannons of all AC sizes, UAC weapons of all AC sizes and streaks of all SRM sizes. Though nobody would fit an LBX-2 and a UAC/20 would be horrible a little more weapon variety would be nice.

I know it was in an ask the devs earlier, IDK which one, that weapons could be added with stock mechs that carried them but few stock mechs carry these weapons. Which means we'd probably never see them if they were implemented in that manner.

We have curretnly all weapons available at beginning of the 3050's.
ER Lasers, and LBX/Ultra ACs in all classes, MRM, Light Gauss, SSRM-4/-6 etc. appear only in the second half of the 3050s

The weapons you mention are Clan-only in 3050. The LB-2X, just to take an example, isn't available to the IS until 3058.

When do MRMs appear, can someone remind me?

Eh, we are missing some, mostly the alternate ammo types and such.

But, also, mech mortars I think are in-timeline, as are some other wacky things like Binary lasers IIRC. And of course Arrow IV, Long Toms, and the like.

EDIT: At least we can have some fun till UAC20 and Heavy Gauss start to show up and ruin our days.

I hate this 1:1 timeline BS, because it means we can't have Light PPCs until 3067. :\

Don't worry, I'm sure they'll jump ahead a few years when/if they get to the point of doing an expansion.

It's 3050 Clan invasion at release, but think about the potential expansions:

• MechWarrior Online: Civil War! (3062 - 3067 era)
  
• MechWarrior Online: Jihad! (3068 - 3080, but they might want to change that to MechWarrior Online: Word of Blake )
  
• MechWarrior Online: Dark Age (3081 - 3130)
  
• MechWarrior Online: The Dark Age Continues (3130 - )

They'd be fools to stick to the 3050's day-by-day forever, and I don't think they are fools.

[Kaldor]

How about we work on getting a balanced weapon system in that wont break when new weapons are added? Devs are having a hard time balancing 3050 tech, let alone Clan crap when it comes out....
