Alright, so, apparently we are playing in some jumbo infinite universe, but there's only one damn look to everything? All the ARs, Snipers, Shotguns, Swarm Launchers, everything looks the same. Every shotgun is green, says "Creo Don" or something, and has the same sights as well as every weapon. I guess that in the whole universe, there's only really one gun per category.
I have been told numerously that this is just the beta, just a slice of the pie, yada yada yada. Well, when I eat pie, my slice is no different from any others either! So why is the beta so sub-par to the real one? How are we supposed to "test" a game if we aren't actually playing the game we are testing.
Still like the game though....for now |

The lack of design is making the game "sub-par"?
People tell you we are in beta not because they don't have the designs yet, but rather because there is no reason for them to implement the designs as we are testing the game for bugs and imbalances, and weapon design has no effect on how quickly you can blow your enemy's head off. |

Honestly, in a large universe only the best of their class weapons would be used but as far ad gameplay goes it gets pretty bland |

Don't worry, they can re-skin everything once all the real work is done. |

Dude, even in real life, guns are pretty boring and similar. A pistol from the french looks pretty similar to a pistol from the russians. A AR from germany shoots like and AR from Britain.
There might be stat differences but in the end, they look the same, feel similar, and generally perform the same function:kill
A gun is not meant to look pretty. Iron sights are iron sights. A digital scope here looks like a digital scope there.
Just because your gun is not purple and mine is not yellow doesn't mean there is a lack of customization. I mean, for crying out loud, a pink gun? Really?
And if you haven't noticed, the gameplay in this game is more bleak than in many others. Hence, the weapons look that way too. Wear and tear and never ending fighting. Its a design element.
And lastly, gun=gun
gun=/=fairy princess

i know its a beta and we are testing core mechanics but part of me agrees with OP i mean don't tell you don't want to try new kind of weapons and vehicles cause am sure you are but yeah we need to stick with what we got till they decide to add new things or even till release. |

I have to concur with Bojo. Reading about the differences between the classes of weapons and getting excited about it is great, but no VISUAL difference? Especially disheartening when a gun in the standard vs. prototype class (maybe a 160,000 ISK difference) looks the exact same.
Yes, it's a beta, but CCP it would be a great idea to make at least the different classes of guns look different. Different barrels, lights, handles, materials, etc. Standard looks standard, prototype is polished/reflects light etc. This system was pretty awesome in games such as Army of Two (the original), made me kept wanting to upgrade guns/attachments because I could visually see the differences, and all of my purchases/attachments were displayed on the in-game weapon.
It just adds so much to the immersion/enjoyment when you can immediately see the difference between a sub par/superior weapon.
