Seriously. Do you not care for the mighty sentinels. Do you ignore them on purpose.
All other suits have their own dedicated weapons to use, but what about good old sentinels. I like the HMG and its variants, but i really would like some different options.

The problem probably has to do with the nature of heavy weapons, they are supposed to have more damage output but have more drawbacks (range or whatever). It makes creating new types of weapons pretty difficult without shitting up the game balance.
Flamethrower: High damage, low range and fast heat build.
Mortar: Rains down missile on your opponents. Has to me anchored to ground before use, has to be aimed, slow reload, limited ammo but high damage over large area. cant be used indoors.
Laser HMG: Accurate, long range, fast heatbuild, low damage.
LMG: Damage around the same to an assault rifle, low range, high recoil, high clip size fast fire. |

Yeah it really sucks that the heavy section of weapons is so scarce. It would seem that one of the first things to go when CCP went skeleton crew on us was the art department so saying I see racial parity on heavy weapons any time in the future at all would make me a liar. I always thought a Sentinel should have a heavy AND light weapon instead of a heavy/sidearm, but that would probably require a HUGE re-balancing of everything else...
Yeah, no. A heavy with a HMG and RR or a CR. They would be a monster on the battle field. |

Well, because there are so few heavy weapons right now, i think they shouldnt get racial bonuses just yet. Maybe further down the line IF they add more heavy weapons. |
