I'm hoping its semi-auto, high damage, slow firing, and really accurate. I really would enjoy something like that, but if it behaves totally surprising in an awesome way, then that's good too. |

So a tactical assault rifle. |

Something similar, but I was thinking closer to a sniper rifle. |

Cool. I might find myself using this instead of the plasma assault rifle.
Although on my list of priorities, more weapons is below a bigger per battle playercount... |

Looks caldari for sure perhaps some sort of gauss rifle fairly long barrel but not long enough to be a sniper rifle so iam going to guess caldari answer to the blaster assault rifle, i think that cylinder object in the middle-ish the might be part of the firing mechanism (a magnet?) the piece in front of the handle looks unnecessarily large perhaps thats the ammo magazine |

Same kind of cylinder as the sniper rifle, so I'm guessing it is an electromagnet. I think the piece in front is indeed what the magazine slides into. |

Weapon customization is already planned, even our current ARs have rails.

I'll take a Minmatar Assault, thank you. Rifle I mean; not an assault.
Also, really looking forward to something besides that horrible Caldari Sniper Rifle. I really don't care what, and couldn't tell you whetehr I just don't like the look, or the way it fires, or.. might be the barrel. No idea really, but I don't really enjoy shooting with it. |

The answer to the Gallente blaster assault rifle would be the Mk25 Gauss Rifle from the Templar One book ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpJQjwKs6Kg )
This could be anything from a gauss based shotgun to a tactical midrange rifle.. interesting at least :) |

The current magazine design appears to be exactly the same between all the magazine-fed Light weapons - methinks that it's a placeholder until we get ammo-types.
As for the gun itself - it's got a tactical grip, ACOG-esque scope, and a rather long barrel for an AR. To me, that attachment list seems more suited to a DMR- Designated Marksman Rifle- weapon. For the un-informed, DMRs are basically the middle-child between assault rifles and "sniper" weapons, meant to be effective in both roles.
If i'm right about this design, that likely means stats similar to the following:
>Slower RoF than the current tac-AR, but higher than the sniper.
>Somewhat higher damage than current AR
>Better headshot multiplier
>"Tight" hipspread - DMRs are meant to be useful in most situations, not just sniping.
>Semi-auto would be the standard version. Full-auto might be a "secondary" variant option. |

Looks like it could possibly be a Caldari Carbine Rifle in my eyes.
Most Caldari weapons look like it could be a railgun so I wouldn't jump on marksman type rifle just yet.
The viewpoint is at an odd angle to judge the length....or it may be my bad eyes. |

I wondered about that, but I hope not. The original design is much better, its ugly and bulky, but in somehow beautiful way. This new model looks like a generic AR except for a few things. |

Each race will have something in the ar role, it may not be an ar. The scrambler and gauss rifles may be the amarr and caldari equivalent.
The ar is a plasma blaster, the shortest ranged of all New Eden gun types. Caldari favour rail/gauss, the longest ranged type. I would guess the caldari rifle will be about 1/2 way between the ar and sniper. The minmatar and amarr would be in between these extremes, well the minmatar was longer max range but shorter full damage range then blaster in eve. |

It's also plausible that the Laser Rifle is already the Amarr equivalent for an AR, and the Scrambler will be their Sniper Rifle equivalent. |

I would not be happy about that, I'm hoping that the laser is the sniper, and that the scrambler is the AR. I want an AR as pew pew scifi stylish as the scrambler pistol. Lasers are too situational to be the AR variant IMO. |

Unfortunately, I would bet ISK on Garrett's guess.
Current LR has no scope, is very effective at medium to medium-long range, and empties its clip in under 10 seconds - That's cookie-cutter AR stats in most games.
With the Scrambler Rifle, not only does it look like a sniper-type weapon (long, sleek "barrel" and a scope), but our current Scrambler Pistol already acts like a mini-sniper - great accuracy with a lethal headshot multiplier.
Either that, or it will be the Amarr match to whatever the Caldari gun turns out to be - I'm quite certain that the Caldari gun will at least be a semi-auto weapon.
P.S. at Ten-Sidhe: That assessment about "halfway between AR and sniper" falls in very closely with my assumptions. |

I'll give it a try anyway if it is true, I might actually like sniping with it despite my general dislike of sniping. |

You realise that the art posted is just concept art? It isn't the actual model and is likely to have skins placed on it and things adjusted. |

I don't see how your comment is relevant to what he said. He never said it was the final model, but it is clearly Caldari by the aesthetic chosen. Also, from the concept art we seen so far from weapons we already have, the art and the actual models are pretty much identical. |

This is what I've been wanting since Closed Beta! Something with more power then the Tactical AR, but shoots faster then the Sniper Rifle. Either that or a Caldari Shotgun. Either way, their giving the Caldari an Non-Specialized weapon! |

Its a Gauss rifle.
Gauss Rifles work by maintaining a permanent magnetic field and are then fed ammo into it.
This usually results in a widely inaccurate but extremely rapid firing weapon.
In other words this thing probably shots a heck of a lot faster than the plasma AR. |
