Gallente are close ranged power houses who love them some plasma. So a plasma HMG would have even shorter range than it does now and do more damage. So it would be the best counter to the breech AR. lol#20mHMG |

I really hope that the current minmatar hmg is a placeholder and that it will be overhauled. |

Also, still don't understand why the Gallente plasma rifle (all cqc, no regrets) has more range than the minmatar projectile hmg (mid range massacres)
its already given to us to use and they have nerfed/buffed its ranged throughout this build. Its current range is intended so all its variants are pretty screwed |

No, that wouldn't make any sense to have 2 weapons that covers the same role, only one is weaker (the Gallente one). RAther, the Gallente Heavy AI weapon could be something on the lines of a M2 HMG, but carried. pretty high damage, medium ROF, fast overheat, high recoil. low to medium range. |

-All tank blaster variants fulfill the same roll and they are all weaker than the scattered. -Breach shotgun and normal shotgun fulfill the same role and the breach is weaker. -Full auto AR fulfills the CQC roll better than the breech and long range better than the tact and even mid range better than the burst. -Normal scrambler pistol and burst pistol fulfills the same roll but normal scrambler is better -Assault SMG and breech SMG fulfill the same roll but the Assault is better.
See a trend here or should i go on? The gallante HMG is going to suck balls when we get it in patch 2015. ops that an undefined date |

There is a trend, but that's within a single gun. The Gallente Rifle is the Assault, so the Assault is the best of the Gallente variants, etc. A Gallente heavy weapon would be a completely different weapon from the Minmatar HMG, like the Scrambler Rifle is a different weapon from the Assault Rifle. |

True. But the scrambler rifile and the plasma rifile are very simular, they both have 100% accuracy, do the same amount of base damage and have have full auto and single shot variants. Their different and all cuz one overheats and does various damage to tanking types, but theyre not very different because they preform the same, its just slitghtly more involved. A scrambler destroys everyone utterly just like the plasma and do it in the same fashion.
With all that being said i think the same experience will happen with the HMGs. Of course, the experience will be reversed as opposed to the ARs (cuz ARs are indeed better in every way than a gattling gun/HMG), that all the HMG variants will suck balls because the current one does, and they have to be based around our current piece of poop |

CCP could play it lazy and simply reskin the existing HMG and give it flashy new audio and proper racial weapon profiles. No one said it has to be drastically different. |

Yeah, theres like no one who has 1500 HP today but an AR would kill that in a single clip from 70 meters away. or a me grenade and less than a quarter clip |

Yea, I know all that. They all need either removing, or fixing. Also, Stablized blaster needs buffing on the requirements to make it better, and the scattered needs a lower damage, and higher ROF. Then the blasters will be fine. |

Then the blasters will be fine. and the compressed needs to do the most damage on its level for standard and adv levels. The only one that does more damage for its level is the proto. So all the blasters excpet the normal ones. And the other HMGs will need re-balancing too |

I don't think HMG is gonna have race variants. Maybe in the distant future, but in short term we would rather see the Gallente and Amarr heavy weapons. So thinking right now the Gallente plasma based heavy weapon could be like idk a flamethrower lol only in this case it will be called Plasmathrower. Then the Amarr will obviously have some kind of laser based heavy weapon. So this one is a large laser pointer that gives you an airstrike with beautiful Amarr jets. I'll be using that one a lot.

The HRMGÇÖs range is appropriate. It, like the SMG, is meant to be a close to near mid range weapon.

You mean HMG? cuz both of those MGs fit the description. I doubt theyre going to reduce anything on a weapon because a new one was introduced, personally |

Provided the range is short, I would expect anyone caught on the buisness end of the barrel they dead. But short range allows for a potential counter.

There will not be 4 racial variants of the HMG. At least not in the foreseeable future. There will be four Racial Heavy weapons. The Minmatar HRM and the Caldari Forge Gun are not similar. The Amarr will most likely have a large laser. For Gallente I would expect something similar to the Shotgun or Plasma Cannon, only on a larger scale. Maybe a Plasma Cannon with a 5 shot clip, possibly with shorter range.
The only weapon type that is guaranteed to have all 4 racial variants is the standard Infantry Rifle: Gallente Assault Riffle (Plasma Rifle), Minmatar Combat Rifle, Amarr Scrambler Rifle, and Caldari Rail Rifle. Each of these will have variants that seek to imitate the basic attributes of the other three.
People get confused on Pistols as well, since the Minmatar have the SMG and the Caldari will have the Magsec SMG (rail SMG) they think all four races will have SMGGÇÖs, but actually the other racial equivalents are the Scrambler Pistol and the Ion Pistol.
Basically the basics that all four races will have are: Heavy Weapon, Infantry Rifle, and Sidearm. Beyond that, all others are specialty weapons and are not guaranteed to have racial variants. They may add racial variants of specialty weapons, such as the Precision Rifle which looks to be a Minmatar variant of the Caldari Sniper Rifle, but not having it does not create a hole in the lineup.
