For Turrets we can see that each race will have at least two turret types based on the two types of damage
Caldari - Missiles, Railguns
Minmitar - Autocannon, Artillery/cannon
Amarr - Beam and Pulse Lasers
Gallente - Blaster and........
It seems that Gallente for some reason unbeknownst to us just randomly decided to not use Railgun Weaponry on the ground, or at least that's what CCP is hinting. Blasters and Drones? Maybe if this was the year 2019 but it's not.
All in all, this is just another thread for me to ***** about why CCP decided to not give Gallente Railgun weaponry like in EVE and Early Days of DUST.

Maybe an 80gj version of the plasma cannon; firing out extremely slow moving, steep drop off balls of plasma? Would be kinda neat if it was Semi Automatic

I'm guessing you use- instead of plasma 'bolts' you use haphazardly formed balls of plasma?
Seems the way the Plc is going.
Just wait, you might get a OOBER CQC weapon, called the Plasma Flamethrower, with an eefective of 3m, it's SURE to actually kill that scout plonking away at your 32 HP/s rep heavy and 900 HP pool.

Gallente should have rail and blaster.
Caldari get two missile types: Explosive and EM (+20% to shield, -20% to armor).

Plasma Flamethrower on a tank?
Yes please.
Seriously though, if we just had Drones I'd take this argument away....even if we just had AI sentry turrets to guard a locations I'd be okay with that. |

In all fairness, looking at assault dropships (the only non-basic vehicle class at the moment) the Gallente one does get bonuses to both blasters and railguns.
Amarr are the good guys.

Yeah I saw that and I hope it sticks but that bonus is from a time when CCP had Hybrid weapons both Gallente and Caldari.
They changed all the other shared bonuses between Blasters and Rails, I suspect them to do the same once they have realized what they have done.
Although I will say this.
The small Rails operate more like Gallente type rails and Caldari rails could operate more like the Large Rails.
Small Rails (hopefully Gallente prototype) - Less Range, Lower Accuracy, Higher RoF, Less Damage, Better Tracking, Larger Magazine.
Large Rails (suspected bases for Caldari Rails) - Longer Range, Higher Accuracy, Slower RoF (lol), More Damage, Slower Tracking, smaller Magazine.
If Small Rails were Gallente Based and Large Rails were Caldari based that would make me feel a whole lot better and not feel like CCP just tossed well established lore out the window for the sake of DEV convenience |

Also when it comes to anything vehicle-content related I wouldn't put much stock in anything. Who is to say there won't be Gallente rail guns and Caldari rail guns? Because honestly, when was the last time we even got new vehicle content? Like actual new vehicle content? Slapping already existing turrets to the front of already existing dropships doesn't count.

You've got a point. Funny thing is since the inception of Vehicles we actually have LESS content now than we had back in the day.

I miss the Diversity we used to have.
What good even came out of this new vehicle system?
The only thing that happened is that they shifted this issues around and removed a ton of content from the game.
Literally the only positive that came from this vehicle change is the Ammo System. (which I thought would help my small blaster but apparently they gimped my babies again) |

If you change railguns and blasters to just hybrid you could see that even if Gallente got rail guns they still only have 1 weapon.

In Eve Caldari / Gallente turret ships use either rails or blasters depending on the intent of the fit (sniping vs brawling), they just have a tendency to use one or the other. It isn't really necessary to duplicate the railgun and put a Gallente corporation name on it, just use the railgun that already exists. |

caldari branched off from gallente.
the HYBRID weaponry that cadlari uses is also used by gallente. hybrid weaponry consists of blasters and rails.
In eve, aside from the hybrid weaponry the caldari put a focus on shields, electronic countermeasures and missiles. the gallente put a focus on armor, sensor dampeners and drones.

The Khanid like missiles, so the Amarr technically could go beam, pulse, and missile, but it'll never happen.

Drones.
And they should be Gallente's AV "turret," considering that the blaster should be AI.
Pulse lasers and autocannons should also be AI while beam lasers and artillery are for AV.

Just because you can fit a Hybrid rail on a Gallente Ship doesn't mean you should. Same goes for tanks. Gallente in the lore are blaster/drone tech and Caldari are rail/missile tech. But just because they're both hybrid weapons doesn't mean they're viable for both.

Straight for the troll huh? I was saying lore wise but ok. I have been in fleets that run Talos rail fits, but just because it's like that in eve doesn't mean the lore is the same way. Also EVE =/= DUST

Gallente use hybrid weapons.
Hybrid weapons are blasters and rails.
Gallente use blaster or rails interchangeably. They're both gallente tech.
Dust giving the caldari a monopoly on rails and gallente a monopoly on blasters is an idiosyncrasy that needs to be fixed. There should be two skins for these weapons. A caldari skin for the ar, a caldari skin for the rail rifle (check) a gallente skin for the ar (check) and a gallente skin for the rail rifle.
This would apply to all hybrid weapons as they're shared equally between gallente and caldari.
the other weapon is missiles for caldari, and drones for gallente. We have no drones and not enough missiles for caldari. This also needs to be fixed asap.
Whichever skin you get would be dependent on which frame/hull you choose.
(this is inaddition to missiles as Kirk points out to sone extent all four races use They're should be 4 skins for missiles and at least one hull for each race that's good for missiles.)
