Umbat Boki Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 157	Posted - 2012.11.23 10:58:00 - [4] - Quote What about special dropsuite with two L slots and other slots/parameters nerfed? Sounds interesting to me.

Sounds interesting to me. Maybe on a heavy suit ... I think it would need to be that restricted to not be OP ... instead of a heavy and side give it 2 light and it could carry AR /swarm or AR / sniper or AR / mass driver (oops didn't think of that !) Sidearms are a bit dull it's either pistol or (usually) SMG ... it would mix things up a bit if you had no idea what that heavy was packing as a secondary light weapon :-)
NAV HIV The Generals 151	Posted - 2012.11.23 13:13:00 - [10] - Quote Would love to see that...

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 1849	Posted - 2012.11.23 13:31:00 - [11] - Quote Specifically making Shotguns a Sidearm? No way. That would make them insanely OP. A Dropsuit type with dual Light Weapon slots, though... maybe. Would have to be carefully balanced to avoid making it OP.

8404-0000 GREEN Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 20	Posted - 2012.11.23 14:55:00 - [13] - Quote I like the idea of 2 Light weapon slot suit, or maybe a Module that would effectively do the same but also reduced sprint/movement speed because of the added weight of the dual light weapons, ammo etc. It would effectively balance any suit out, this would also require skills added to the complexity of dual weapons. What I don't want to see is Snipers also getting Assault style Rifles..then again in real life many also carry m4 or similar along with it. Maybe just a specific "side arm shotgun" like a sawed off or compact version with a lot of spread mainly used for close in clearing....but proper placed shots with a skilled up pistol do deal some good damage.
Cody Sietz Tritan-Industries Legacy Rising 63	Posted - 2012.11.23 15:31:00 - [14] - Quote It would make swarm missile OP since you don't have to get killed on your way to blow up something. So yeah I like it. Maybe make the weapon switch time really high to prevent people from just switching in ans out too much.

HMG heavies packing a Mass Driver secondary. People would be sour.
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 1058	Posted - 2012.11.23 17:42:00 - [16] - Quote Already one out. Called a breach scrambler pistol. Keep in mind you might have to aim.
Mobius Wyvern BetaMax. 1216	Posted - 2012.11.23 18:13:00 - [17] - Quote It looks like the Flaylock pistol might be a kind of "pocket shotty", so that might be an option for those that want a shotgun sidearm.
Moonracer2000 Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 311	Posted - 2012.11.23 18:31:00 - [18] - Quote I think a sidearm variant of the shotgun could work. Something like a sawed off shotgun. A single powerful but high spread round, long reload in between. If designed to be a balanced sidearm it would be a great addition to that weapon class.

If that's what the Flaylock pistol really is, the art makes it look like you get a 3-4 round mag.
Enji Elric Matari Combat Research and Manufacture Inc. Zombie Ninja Space Bears 176	Posted - 2012.11.24 05:22:00 - [20] - Quote I has question... why does everything need to be balanced/ nerfed/ groaned over? If there was a skill to let someone use an AR and a Shotgun, wouldn't you spec into it? would you go after that skill if you had to go through all of the current books for AR and shotgun? even if the only option for the sub was a 2 shell small shotgun. I personally think we need to focus less on what people would think would be OP and think of what would be fun, cool , and create more variances in loadouts. Let the developers decide what would give someone too much power and have them adjust it. It's you jobs as players to use new tactics to adapt and overcome. I'm just tired of OP being flung around like a football
