...Should at least have the range of the scrambler rifle... otherwise why choose anything other than AR or HMG or SR?
So if it is then its either suppressive or AV.
It will likely be supressive, which probably would mean that will be ripping shields off of folks |

I could see it doing something like giving constant heat damage depending on it's heat level and the user's skill level. That would have the heavy's bonus make sense.
Basically it would be a laser rifle +25% damage, a much longer sweet spot, but cause more heat damage over the lifetime of the shot. |

I'm personally wondering what it'll be. Laser rifles are already pretty damn powerful in the hands of a heavy.
Maybe it'll have AV capabilities? If eve is anything to go by, the heavy laser weapon's range will be between that of the HMG and then forge gun. However, the range of the HMG right now is more akin to that of a plasma weapon than an autocannon.
Btw, how OP is the heavy version of artillery going to be? I might be hoping for too much because the light artillery just turned out to be a wimpy grenade launcher, but still. |

A charge up shot that releases a sustained beam for Anti-Shield AV would be awesome.
If they're going to make racial variants of HMGs in the same manner as ARs, then I will accept nothing short of the gatling laser from Fallout3. |

I'd like it to be very high shield damage but very low armor damage. No overheat but with constant use it will be giving you a steady amount of damage back. |

A low DPS compared to HMG with the range of a laser and the overhead of the ASR with 100% effectiveness against vehicles. A jack of all trades hmg. |
