Special Weapons:
Mass Driver (M)
Laser Rifle (A)
Shotgun (G)
Sniper (C)
The precision rifle has already been shown though, so I'm pretty sure all the races will get their own sniper rifle.
@Kagehosi- I was under the impression that the shotgun was the Gallente's specialist weapon (which by the way I think sounds a bit cleaner for the category than "other"  ). Also, that picture you think might be the Minmatar shotgun seems to clearly have an HMG-like rotating multi-barrel design. I'm assuming it was meant to be something like an LMG. But, as you said, different races' weapons in the same category might have drastically different firing mechanics, so I guess we'll have to wait and see.
I also recall one of the CPM (Iron Wolf I think) saying a while back that the mass driver was actually the AV/launcher weapon for the Minmatar. But again, far from certain.

This makes me believe that there will only be 4 heavy weapons, 1 for each race.
Well I'm reeeeeally really hoping we get at least 5, so then at least each damage type is covered. But really one AV and one AI would be far preferable.

CCP have said Mass Driver goes into the "Launcher" Category at this point in time.
HOWEVER they have not said that this would preclude the release of a Minnie AV weapon in that category.
As such if the decide to release a Minmatar AV weapon within the "launcher" category then the Mass Driver would then be cast as a different class, like AOE, Territory weapon. They have said that specifically. The MD is only currently a launcher so they don't force themselves to have to make 2 more AV weapons and 3 more weapons.
Of course if they added a more designated Minmatar AV weapon, the MD could just be classified as the MInmatar specialist weapon, right?
