Every gun of the same type (e.g. assault rifles) looks exactly the same whether it's standard, advanced, or proto.This may seem trivial to most people, but it just makes the game look the same all the time.
I know it may seem like ripping off CoD, but why not put in a gun camo system? Or, even further down the CoD rabbit hole, gun attachments? It would be nice to use iron sights rather than a scope on my assault rifle or the RDS on my submachine gun.
Just sayin'  |

Aesthetics coming in later. They're not important to testing the game. |

there are numerous threads about this
the weapon you are using is gallente in design (inegrated sights with the helmet)
the SMG and Mass driver are Minmatar in design (pop up sights)
the Pistol is Amarr in design (iron sights? maybe)
the weapon from the future vision trailer is caldari in design (built in red dot sight)
all weapons vehicles and drop suits will have a different flavor for all the races
logistics is minmatar
asaault is caldari
heavy is amarr
scout is gallente
just wait and we are gonna get some cool looking weapons :) |

There is no reason weapons of the same type have to look the same aside from slight color differences:
-There is no reason why the same corporation of the same race can't make 2 guns of the same type with different visual designs. Helckler & Koch, a German gun maker made the G-36, and the HK-416 for example.
-There is no reason a different corp from the same race can't make a gun of the same type with a different visual design.
-There is no reason 2 different races can't have 2 different guns of the same type with different visual designs.
Having different models for different grades (standard, advanced, prototype) is completely possible. Nothing about the racial design restricts this, so this is not an excuse.
That Assault rifle from the Future Vision trailer and the other trailers was confirmed to be Gallente, not Caldari. https://twitter.com/HilmarVeigar/status/191740038013390848 . Its probably an earlier design of the current ugly assault rifle we have now, I liked t much better, though I like the current rifle's sight.
Weapon fitting/customization would be nice, but I want attachments reflecting the scifi nature of the game, and not just things like silencers.
There is something really annoying about unlocking a new grade of a gun, and seeing it look almost exactly the same. Usually in shooters a new gun model becomes a visual symbol of progression, its satisfying. |

You of course understand this is just a beta right? and the purpose of this beta is to test the mechanics and servers not to please your need for variety. don't get me wrong yeah it does get kinda tedious looking at the same gun but its kinda the least of CCP's problems right now. |
