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. |

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. |

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? |

Started out as a doodle in class, but I thought it could make a nice melee weapon for dust. Here is the pic: http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/KAGEHOSHI-/minmatarheatcutter001_zps9ded6a33.jpg 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. |
