Crystal Ball Mode
Anything here is subject to change on an instant
(No Pictures) Scrambler Rifle
The scrambler rifle is a selective-fire weapon capable of semi-automatic and charged fire. Each shot produces a pulse of sinuous energy capable of penetrating shield and metal. By keeping pressure on the trigger, the operator can control the power of each discharge, scaling it to produce an intense pulse of energy fatal to soft targets.
The added power output does come with downsides, most notably increased heat build-up; left unmanaged, thermal stresses age the focusing crystal prematurely, resulting in splintering and potentially lethal feedback. Despite this and several other issues GÇô increased heft, poor reliability, and high manufacturing cost GÇô the scrambler rifle is widely available and in service on battlefields clusterwide.
Variants Normal & Assault
Plasma Cannon
The plasma cannon is a single-shot, direct-fire weapon developed by Allotek Industries primarily for use in urban operations and confined space combat. The dense plasma discharge it generates is highly unstable, decaying rapidly and venting sufficient heat and energy to severely damage targets caught within its critical emission radius.
During the short pre-fire charge, ultracold plasma is prepared and then heated inside a magneto-core trap. Just prior to discharge, a small precursor projectile is fired that produces (and is ultimately consumed by) a short-lived trail that helps guide and contain the volatile discharge as it travels towards its target.
Flaylock Pistol
The flaylock is a snub-nosed pistol designed to fire one-inch direct attack missiles. Typically, the weapon is armed with pack-loaded dumbfire or seeker missiles effective against infantry and armored targets, but is fully compatible with a broad range of missile types, making it one of the most versatile sidearm weapons on the battlefield.
Seeker missiles utilize pre-launch lock-on and rudimentary self-guidance to track designated targets, though finite propellant limits the practical engagement zone to short ranges. Although less effective against shielded targets, the tandem warhead allows penetration of armor layers before detonation, amplifying the effectiveness of the narrow fragment stream and maximizing each projectileGÇÖs lethality. |

That's actually a myth of modern media. Plasma can be both cold or hot; the only requirement for plasma is matter stripped of electrons. Most plasma, however, is hot due to the fact heat typically accompanies electron stripping. Nonetheless, plasma can be cold.

Maybe it's just me but if you need to lock on guided missiles to kill a slow fat boy then you're doing it wrong.
Don't forget if it can lock on to heavy dropsuits it should be able to lock all dropsuits. |

From the looks and sounds of it, shields and armor tanks will be far more distinctive next build since we have all four races available.
Gallanete and Amarr Assaults will be far tougher to kill with a scrambler rifle while it will tear the ever so loving crap out of Minmatar and Caldari Assault suits. |

Breach variant, Specialist, and Normal Variant
More stuff that may not have been seen yet
Active Scanner
Sending out a triggered pulse of high-frequency magnetometric waves and interpreting the results with an uplinked onboard computer, the Active Scanner gives ground units a snapshot of enemy positions. Projection nodes set at specific angles on the hand-held device, generate a vectored impulse capable of extracting objects from high-noise environments. Feedback from the pulse is filtered to reduce ambient clutter and pinpoint targets lacking IFF signals.
Though the amount of energy required to produce the blast is much greater than its on-board power source can readily generate, the Active Scanner makes use of redundant J-24 micro-capacitors to circulate and build the charge up to the required output. The resulting delay between activations is a small price to pay for the enormous tactical advantage the device provides its user.
Proximity, Flux Normal, Focused, Quantum Variants.
New Suits Light, Medium Heavy Frame Suits
A basic dropsuit frame hardwired with all minimum designation combat suites and protocols but without any role-specific customization.
Basic, (A, C, G or M) /1- Series Advanced, Vk (A, C, G, or M) Prototypes
Sentinel Suit (same description as current heavy)
Enforcer HAVs (murader class have been removed)
The Enforcer class possesses the greatest damage output and offensive reach of all HAVs, but the necessary hull modifications needed to achieve this result in weakened armor and shield output and greatly compromised speed.
Vayu (gallente) and Flachion (caldari)
Notable Skill Changes
Weaponry No longer provides damage bonus. Most Weapon skills do not increase damage other than proficiency at 3% a level. Sidearm Light and Heavy, Rapid Reload, Ammo Capacity, Sharpshooter, and Upgrades Removed. Replaced with weapon specific and tailored variants. AR and SMG only two with Sharpshooter.

The Plasma launcher sounds very similar to a mortar. The first "dummy charge" is probs to let you know where the real charge is going to land and then you shot the main charge to inflict damage. If that thing has moartar capabilitys then we will see some major issues with it. |

Not happy about the weapon upgrades disappearing, I much prefer to upgrade a general set of weapons than just one because it allows to try other weapons in the same class with all those little boosts. Now if you choose the wrong weapon you're even more boned? Cool. |

Yeah, I think it was in the Merc Cast they briefly mentioned (or at least implied) that Sharpshooter was being changed and would no longer give a range boost.

The screenshots posted by Absolute Idion II showed the base skill only reducing kick. Someone else (forgot the name) commented about how the sharpshooter was going to become the dispersion reduction skill. Which is allot of skill points so we may see a reduction in complaints about ARs being OP.
Barring any changes in the weapon base stat ranges the laser rifle will have a clear advantage over assault rifles The sharpshooter skill really has mucked up peoples perceptions over different weapon types. |

It's not just the sharpshooter, it's rapid reload and capacity too. I was looking forward to making the most of these skills for PvE when they would really count. Better yet, imagine you have rapid reload level 1 and the guy you just came across has not skilled it. You both dance around like maniacs and are both down to very little armour and no bullets in the clip, you reload at the same time but win because you're just a tiny bit faster. You take him down and move on. |

Cosgar wrote:What exactly is accuracy in this game now? It "feels" like how fast a weapon recovers from recoil or has some relation to dispersion and kick for automatic weapons. The way I understand it the accuracy rating is a weighted average expressed as a percentage of the rounds that will hit a target of a particular, unspecified size. All possible firing positions are taken in to account using an algorithm of some kind to apply the "weight".
So long story short it is just a basic indicator of the amount of dispersion the weapon has that can be used to compare different weapon grades. However it doesn't really offer any comparison between different weapon types since some weapons have a larger decrease in dispersion while in ADS or an increased amount of dispersion if hip fired while moving etc... |

Also, @OP:
You can add these too: Swarm Launcher buff. Clip size via Operation. Laser Rifle change. 5% cooldown via Operation, changed from heat buildup. |

The first "dummy charge" is probs to let you know where the real charge is going to land and then you shot the main charge to inflict damage. If that thing has moartar capabilitys then we will see some major issues with it. I don't think it will be a signifigant delay between the two, if any at all. My understanding is that the first charge is used to ionize the atmosphere, leaving a path of little resistance for the main ball of plasma to follow. In addition, from what I've seen in the latest trailer, the arc isn't signifigant enough for it to be used as a mortar, when the probable short range is taken into account. |

No this is how most plasma weaponry has to work, you have to the bottle up all that plasma to have it contained and we have found out magnetism are best at this. However the larger the bubble the harder it is to maintain it. So in really large shots you need to have a means of keeping the bubble stable as it travels hence precursor. Think of it as the armor penetration tip of a warhead. |

The crystal ball needs to be wrong
Replacing Sagaris and Surya with a glass cannon is no good
I hope they leave the Sagaris and Surya in and just add the new tanks

Marauders currently are no significant upgrade over standard tanks tbqh I also question these new enforcer HAVs........like ok we get improved dmg output but WEAKER tanking ability? so basically only good for rail sniping from a gay hill/redline since its also very slow.............. |
