How bout we let CCP tell us which weapons are what, besides I don't see the laser under the sniper tab rather it's under the rifle tab.

Heavy weapons here:

Currently, the only two heavy weapons unreleased are the Amarr heavy laser, and Gallente heavy plasma

-Amarr Heavy Laser cannon=have it be something like a massive laser rifle that fires in a sinusoidal manner with two beams, i.e. one beam is represented by the function sin(x), the other -sin(x), and would do a ton of damage every -ÇN meters (N being a constant to determine period range) as this is where the two beams would cross, and it would work along the same lines of the laser rifle doing reduced damage at close range. The two beams would also be going through a constant phase shift at about 5m/s, in order that the places where the two beams intersect is more dynamic. If you want to see what i mean, graph sin(x), and -sin(x) at the same time, then graph sin(x-2) and -sin(x-2) to see the phase shift.

Also include an assault variant that requires a charge but is effective at close range as well, and the phase shift happens much more rapidly, but the functions determining the beams remain the same.

-Gallente heavy plasma weapon could be something like a plasma mortar that is laser guided, with a large blast radius, designed primarily for taking out vehicles, but also effective against infantry caught in the blast. It would have 1 magazine ammo, and would fire a large mass of plasma into the air, which could be directed by holding down L1, and aiming. Reload time would be very long, probably 10 ish seconds

how about we work on including all the militia weapons first.

Actually, it's under the "light weapon" tab, along with every other light weapon in the game.

it has been the amarr precision weaponGǪGǪAnd idk what your talking about "under tabs". We have no LMG, therefore your point is null. Im fairly certain I've seen a quote before that announced the laser rifle as the amarr precision weapon, but ill have to double check.

There doesn't need to be a Caldari shotgun or a Gallente Sniper rifle, they are two sides of the same weapon class (hybrid).

Just because they specialize in long range combat doesn't mean they're ALWAYS going to stay at that range. I normally don't like conparing a game to real life, but just about every nation out there has their own specialty weapon for the engangments they might encounter. Even the police do the same thing even though officers carry a handgun but when the situation warrants they can bring out higher caliber weapons. Besides even without comparing this game to real life why would you be against having more variety in weapons? Or are you worried that your "I WIN" gun might avtually have a weakness that can be exploited?

Every race has their own special weapons:

-Amarr: Laser Rifle
-Minmatar: Mass Driver
-Caldari: Sniper Rifle
-Gallente: Shotguns

Here are the types of weapon ideas CCP is interested in.

The Autobot Rifle - Normal Assault Rifle, effective at all ranges.

The Decepticon Rifle - almost exactly the same as the Autobot Rifle, only a longer range with higher DPS thats offset by a extremely short spool up time.

The Gatling Rifle - Three assault rifles taped together.

The Bazooka Rifle - A Hand held Bazooka that shoots full sized assault rifles, effective as AV.

The Cannon Fodder Rifle - A Heavy Weapon that shoots full sized Assault Rifles that also unload their entire clip while in flight.
