This thread is for the purpose of categorizing the weapons of Dust 514.
Assault rifles G: Assault rifle: C: Rail rifle M: Combat rifle A: Scrambler rifle
Pistols G: Ion pistol C: Bolt pistol M: flaylock pistol A: Scrambler pistol
SMGs G: ? C: Magsec M: SMG A: ?
Sniper rifles G: ? C: Sniper rifle M: precision rifle A: laser rifle? (not sure)
Shotguns G: shotgun C: 2nd row, 2nd gun from the left? (not sure) M: Weapon help by the guy on the far right? (not sure) A:
Light AV G: Plasma cannon C: Swarm launcher M: ? A: ?
Heavy G: ? C: Forge gun M: HMG A: ?
Other G: ? C: ? M: Mass driver A: laser rifle? (not sure)
Some help from CCP would be needed, like clarification of where the laser rifle belongs in.

I believe the Mass Driver is in a AOE class, not sure wether laser is designated sniper or not, if it is it needs a horrendus buff.
Also that one where you believe you see caldari shotgun,
second row, second column I believe to be caldari AOE, third column caldari shotgun.

Weapons in the same class can behave very differently, so creating sub-categories like DMR doesn't seem like its needed.

What's speculative?
That the Forge Gun is primarily intended as AV? That the HMG is a primarily anti-infantry weapon? Or that there will eventually be more than 4 weapons intended for use by non-Commando heavy suits?
I think all of those are perfectly reasonable expectations to have for the game. |

Yes the forge gun is AV, and the HMG is AI, but there's no reason right now to assume that CCP won't just lump them together in one category. When one race gets both an AI and AV heavy weapons, then I will consider the heavy weapon category split.

Swarm launcher is light AV, just like plasma cannon I never said definitely that the laser rifle was a sniper rifle, only that it might be; weapons of the same type can behave very differently (compare scrambler rifle to AR). I also said it might also be classified as just "other" along with the mass driver.

This devblog shows only 2 more heavy weapons in the plan, and there was a dev post that said "the Amarr heavy weapon," or some such (but basically it was worded as to be singular and mean only 1 heavy Amarr weapon.) This makes me believe that there will only be 4 heavy weapons, 1 for each race.
As to your speculation on what that 2nd by 2nd weapon might be, it just looks like more concept art for the Magsec SMG, as it is very similar to the picture labled such.

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.

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.

I've considered that, but no other weapon is shown twice in that image, so it seems incorrect to assume that the magsec would be shown twice. Weapons from the same race can look (boringly) similar, like the SMG and combat rifle.

Also, the other light AV weapons all seem to be shoulder-mounted.

Was going to say this, while it is true that the MD has AV capabilities (no damage penalty against vehicles or installations) it doesn't follow the over the shoulder style of other AV. Pair ths with the description designating it as AI and we are still missing Minmatar AV.
Also see my orginal post, I think that grid you show also cintains the caldari shotgun.

The PLC might be able to be called a sniper cannon(?) It hits at 200m(cal sr hits to 600) and is near instakill for heavies.
Therefore it's sniper/aoe/av classed.

Laser Rifle is definitely not in the sniper rifle class. It had iron sights for a while for goodness sake and the range has always been comparable with normal assault rifles (the class).
Also if you want to include grenades, A: ? C: AV Grenade G: Flux Grenade M: Locus Grenade
Also I'm casting my vote/opinion that the sniper rifle and shotgun are indeed weapon classes and each race will eventually get a version.

The laser rifle, sniper rifle, and precision rifle are all long-range rifles. I think that they should all be categorized together.
I think each race won't get a "knife" but instead a melee weapon. CCP wasn't thinking straight when they were talking about racial knives.
Finally, the shotgun and mass driver are both specialty weapons. Shotgun is the only light weapon dedicated to CQC, and mass driver is the only light weapon dedicated to support. Then again it could be argued that the laser/sniper is in fact in the same category as these weapons because they are also specialty weapons good at only one thing.
It also makes sense because we have gallente being short range, minmatar being short-medium, amarr being medium-long, and caldari being long range, in terms of specialty weapons. But then again who knows what the precision rifle will be like, and if the gallente long-range rifle will actually be shorter range than all of them.

If we were to only use information currently in game, yes the shotgun would be in the Speacilist class.
However based on rumours, concept arts, etc. I think there is a AOE class Shotgun Class Sniper Class LMG class.
If we designate the Laser as an LMG, when we look at the minmatar art with the rumoured shotgun, there is also an LMG on the close left.

I'd instantly drop scouts in favour of a heavier frame and couple that LMG with a Laser and be the ultimate suppression master.
However right now scouts fit my secondary desired play style.

Why an LMG and an LMG? If we classify the laser as LMG based on low damage, high ROF, large Magazine. You would be more benifical going for a short range weapon.

Agreed, the key to success with the Commando is complimenting the effective range of your weapons.
Also I never thought of the Laser Rifle as an LMG, but I can definitely see how that could be argued. And since that one concept art shows a Minmatar soldier carrying what looks like an LMG, then all we're missing is the Caldari LMG and Gallente LMG.

It would make sense, if you consider other FPS titles, the LMG often comparable to the Rifles has much larger magazines. This fits in with laser rifles massive mag capacity, not to mention skilling it up allows for marathons of suppressing fire.

Very good point, all though it would need a much larger magazine now, and the range is presented as 640m effective.
Here is the video anyway, that now POTENTIALLY 3 LMG based weapons. http://youtu.be/NpJQjwKs6Kg

I'm not really sure where the forge gun or precision rifle would fit in these categories, but that's my understanding of the racial weapon categories.

(not sure) Some help from CCP would be appreciated, like clarification of where the laser rifle belongs in. You got most of them right, but personally I would make a few tweaks. Firstly, I would ditch the sniper rifle and shotgun weapon classes, as they would be part of the special weapon category. Secondly I'm a little doubtful if the Forge gun counts as a heavy weapon or a heavy AV weapon.

Well you see that's the thing though, the prescision rifle is the Minmatar Sniper Rifle. If the Minmatar (second shortest range, groundside) are getting a sniper rifle it is safe to assume that everyone one will.
It may be that there is a Shotgun Class - G, M , A Sniper Class - M, A, C AOE Class - G, M, C LMG Class - G, A, C
prehaps?

You may be interested in that CCP confirmed mass driver is a "launcher" class weapon, and shares the same class with the plasma cannon and swarm launcher. I think I spotted the Amarr launcher as well. Also, names of the Gallente and Amarr heavy weapons have been revealed.

True, but as they also say this doesn't mean you won't get a Minmatar AV weapon the Mass Driver is there so they can say they had one.

flashbangs are essiently modern day smoke bombs, just with a limited range Anyways, looked up mismia, and found out that we're probably both wrong; mismia grenade would be a poison grenade. NOW it makes even more sense, because we all knows Amarr is perfectly fine with poisoning people.

Miasma is poison (though not necessarily in all definition), but always in a gas state, so I still think its going to be something gassy like smoke.

Just because it's a poison, doesn't mean it would b regular chemicals. It might eat away at the shields and armor.
EDIT: Basically acid in gas form.

Considering it does full damage against vehicles (which only AV weapons do), yes, it is AV. The fact that it is also effective against infantry in no way disqualifies it from being AV.

Sorry was on Tablet
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.

I hope they indeed reclassify it if they add a new Minmatar launcher, but I doubt they will just to annoy me. Much like even after having 4 assault rifles, they still call the Gallente one "assault rifle". It would just be one of many little things to annoy me in Dust.
