These were all original weapons in DUST that seemed very close to real life equivalence so they went with generic placeholder names.
I would have included sub-machine guns and Heavy Machine Guns but those are pretty much the same.
Nah, the actual rail rifle is supposed to be coming soonish. Though I guess the sniper rifle technically is a rail rifle...... lol they should just call all the racial shotguns something like "Rail Gun, or Plasma Gun" and just confuse the crap out of people! |

So basically...... There hoping to put in 4 main battle rifles for each race creating 16 different versions of assault rifles in total? And would it be hard to believe that this sort of pattern will be the same for every other gun in the game? like..... for shotguns or SMG's for example? |

Damn. So we'll never be rid of this "Master of all trade AR"? Damn you CCP!
No but theres going to be 4x as much variety in the game and because of that you wont see nearly as much AR users out there. In fact, they wont really even be as good as an "all purpose race" just because all of the races are going to have varients that mimic one anothers main battle rifle. |
