Not now (since not really a priority), but eventually more strange interesting scifi weapons need to be added. Currently the game feels like a basic shooter in terms of weaponry that is generally just scifi versions of basic weapons (with the exception of the forge gun, and upcoming laser rifle). More innovative weapons are needed to differentiate gameplay from just the standard shooters.
The purpose of this thread is for us the community to provide ideas and requests for possible new weapon types (not just variants of existing guns) that we would like added in the future. Feel free to post your weapon ideas here.
I will start with my proposed additions:
A plasma-flamethrower or lightning gun. Would have the same range as an assault rifle (AR), less damage than the AR, less accurate, larger "clip" (or power battery) size than an AR, but about half as much "clip" size as the heavy machine gun. Would basically act like a light machine gun, (LMG) but with much more visually engaging and exciting than LMGs from most games. This game lacks an LMG. It would look undeniably cool to see a stream of electricity or a jet of plasma blasting and enemy instead of just some scifi bullet, and really help this game with its lack of visual flair.
A long range rifle that fires explosive drone disks that the player must remote control to drive them to the target. Has great damage, and great range, but remote controlling the disk into an enemy puts the user at risk since he's no longer observing his own surroundings because the shooter is viewing in the camera perspective of the disk. The drones would also be really awesome for passively spotting enemies for one's team.
A group of spherical flying drones that orbit the player and generate a slight shield. When the player designates a target by aiming a non-lethal laser at an enemy, the drones move towards and fly around the enemy to do some light continuous damage, and distraction.
A "Yan Jung" (Ancient EVE race with gravity manipulation) gravity gun maybe made from reverse engineering scavenged technology from ruins. Fires charged shots, and each shot will be a energy sphere that will pull in anyone that it hits directly (which traps them until the sphere disappears in 10 seconds), and slows the the movement of anyone moving away from it by pulling on them. It would be like the forge gun, but have the effect of trapping or slowing down enemy players. This weapon would be nonlethal. This should be a heavy weapon.
Thank you for reading. |

Good suggestions there, I especially like the LMG one.
I think we need more Heavy and Side arms types.
The Forge gun is mostly exclusively AV while the HMG is anti-personnel, I would like to see a halfway option, here are two heavy weapons and a sidearm suggestions.
Laser Cannon: Fires a continuous laser beam damaging anything that passes through. Must be stationary while firing. Infinite ammo, over heats over time, draws a shitload from your power grid to fit.
Rail/Gauss Cannon: Fires a single shell at a time, especially damaging against unshielded targets, can pierce through LAV and drop ship armor as well as light cover. The shell leaves a ripple in the air for a few second after it is fired, making it obvious where it was fired from. Single bullet load, player carries about 10.
Sword and Board: a thin strip of metal from which a shield comes out in the left hand along with an energy sword in the right hand. The sword has more range and damage than the Nova knife but less speed. There could be an AV mace variant. The shield can be planted in the ground to extend into a shield barrier providing cover for about four people, providing they are willing to hug and crouch. |

Laser weapons are coming. There's already a slot for them on the market and you can see someone shooting one toward the end of this trailer.
Railguns are already in the game. They're a turret, and I'm 90% sure that the sniper rifle is a rail gun. Possibly the Forge Gun too.
Rather like the drone idea, though. |

Anti Tank Rifle: Pierces trough armor, shield and thin cover and damages the enemy behind it. Its normal damage is about 250 HP and its damage after piercing is about 100. It has a single shot magazine, a long reload and charging time and it requires a heavy slot and a lot of PG. You can carry 12 rounds with you(16 with heavy weapon capacity). If you aimed you cannot walk and you turn just very slow. |

I'm also pretty sure the sniper rifles are railguns. (I wish there was a CQC/midrange "battle rifle" variant). And laser rifle is coming.
-An EMP grenade would be cool. Would only do damage to shields, but would also temporarily disable the HUD of those affected.
-Perhaps a "grenade" that doesn't explode, but spews plasma flames in 4 directions every 1.5 seconds to burn anyone nearby. Would be great for blocking off paths.
-Stasis webifier grenades. Slows down and even freezes enemies (depending on how close they are to the detonation zone) temporarily. Great nonlethal way to deal with enemies. |

HMG, that is single barreled and has a bi pod or tripod that can be dropped down for significantly improved accuracy at range.
HMG, similar to the Smart Gun from Aliens.
Anti-Material sniper rifle, geared towards knocking out drivers of LAVs and Drop-ship Pilots.
Anti vehicle Mines, maybe we want to get a little crazy and attach a daisy chain option... just sayin.
But more importantly, I would really appreciate some aesthetic changes to weapon types. I think three different looking variations of each type. Not too expensive but adds some flare, and just render them different colors to represent variants of each look. |

There is an EMP grenade its called a FLUX grenade. Check it out. Doesnt disable the hud though. |

I really should play around with more grenades.
New weapon idea
Plasma Shield. A handheld device that releases plasma, and uses a strong electromagnetic field to mold the plasma into the form of a shield. Plasma is known to react to electromagnetic fields. It would destroy many regular projectiles coming through, and would have some sort ionizing particle shield to counter the charged particles of incoming plasma rounds. It would NOT be a perfect shield; would only stop like 60% of incoming damage. The user cannot use any other weapon while the shield is in use. The shield should only cover his front.
Imagine a heavy using this weapon , and his squad behind him using him and the shield as cover as they advance. |

Shotgun minigun with unlimited ammo that fires "genetic material" so powerful, that anyone who is hit becomes pregnant, regardless of gender.
Fires like a shotgun HMG with unlimited range, and low spread.
When aiming down sight, the gun is in secondary fire. Secondary fire has more zoom and accuracy than all sniper rifles. In secondary fire, the "genetic material bullet" is so so large that its 6 times the length and circumference of a large missile.
A single "genetic material" bullet hitting is enough to destroy a proto HAV.
Shots travel through solid objects, and fly off indefinitely until they hit something. So missed shots have the potential to destroy EVE ships that cross its path, even many years from now.
When a player is defeated, and laying on the floor waiting for a medic, he becomes pregnant. When he suicides/dies, 2 other copies of me burst out from his corpse, each carrying a shotgun minigun to continue the cycle.
This gun is a BPO, and only for me.
Not that unreasonable... but seriously, any new ideas? |

Some sort of EMP device that can be placed out that disturbs the enemy HUD within a certain radius would be cool! |

Started out as a doodle in class, but I thought it could make a nice melee weapon for dust. Here is the pic:

Would do less damage, but have greater range, and do continuous fire damage.
Since the Caldari nova knife will no longer be built in, and soon become a sidearm that you have to equip, this opens the gate for more melee sidearms. This is pretty much the Minmatar racial variant of the nova knife. |

Use it regularly it takes out shields on occasions kills players as well |

Tazer gun that would shoot hundreds of nanoneedles over a short distance that would penetrate and overload the opponents dropsuit electronics and PG grid. Virtually no damage, but slowing down or perhaps even incapacitating the opponent for a short duration by creating short circuits. Having excess CPU and PG resources on ones dropsuit would naturally be and effective counter measure. |

Flame thrower: Heavy weapon that has one cylinder on your back. 3 seconds of flame should kill, and over 2.4 seconds of burning should put you in the downed state
LMG: Light gun that has a bigger mag than a AR, but kicks more (hint, hint).
AR grenade launcher varient: AR that gets a single shot mass driver, but slows you down.
missle launcher: picture the valkrye missle from COD: Black Ops. Heavy weapon
