 If 1.8=Racial Parity
 
 Doesn't that mean that Swarm Launcher should have a range increase but a drastic Lock On time increase, like before 1.7 or 1.6....but longer lock on time....
 
 It's a Caldari weapon right? Long Range low Rof?
 
 And what about the Plasma Cannon? Shouldn't a Gallente weapon really have the higher clip count?

 1.8 is about racial purity? Sounds good to me.

 This is more a case of verisimilitude than racial parity. The former is a phrase I've seen used by certain members of CCP to refer to making the games coherent with each other so that they appear as a whole. Some of the things happening in 1.8 are definitely taking solid steps forward to New Eden verisimilitude, suits taking on technological affinities and general battle mantras from EVE are examples.

 The only racial parity reached with 1.8 will be dropsuits and pistols. There's still vehicles, heavy weapons, "launcher" weapons, whatever group SMGs fall into (not sure if everyone's gonna get an "SMG"), precision weapons,and grenades (possibly).

 I really hope that the push to get dropsuit parity was the goal of the Rogue and that he sat down in a team meeting and said "we are getting all the ******* racial variants of everything into the game for suck sakes!!"
 
 I've said it before, but getting all weapons, modules, equipment, vehicles and turrets into the game should be #1 priority so CCP can balance the big picture and not do this lame ass patchwork balancing that gets done when you dont have all the variables.
