[REQUEST] Weapon customization: Subsystem, Rigging, Slots, or Add-ons
- The design for this is ready, but it is a very large task to implement it in-game. Expect this at a later date.
will it be implemented by the 14th?

Ya, i actually just finished talking to CCP Lariat. He said its a go for May 14th. The reason they are nerfing the AR's so hard is because the attachments will effect the gun's performance. |

No, weapon customisation is at least 18 months out.

Easy fellas, yeah they specifically brought it up several times that what they will do is implement a "Tech 3" Variant of Dust 514 equipment and weapons that will allow for "generalization" much like in Eve Online. Whereas (theoretically) the "Tech 2" models would be considered equipment that "specializes" existing models in such a way as to allow different effects, ammo, environmental, etc...
These plans however were projected as somewhat long-term plans as they are not necessarily critical at the moment of release. |

Basically, Tech 2 and Tech 3 have higher manufacturing needs and are likewise more expensive. A Tech 1 Cruiser will only be in the two-to-five million range as far as cost but a Tech 2, depending on the specialization, of the same ship will cost as much as ten times as much due to it being a more refined, more powerful and more survivable option.
Tech 3 on the other hand can cost up toward the one billion ISK range and comes with modular technology - meaning that parts can be switched out and provide different bonuses.
In the case of Assault Rifles, Tech 2 would be more powerful and (just an example) have two ammo types. One that super-charges your damage but reduces your range, and another that gives you slightly less damage but increases your over all range.
Tech 3 would give you a few Subsystems to choose from with each applying a different affect. One that would increase reload speed, another that would increase damage and another that would increase fire rate - but you'd have to choose one of these options for each individual Subsystem.
I feel as though the Assault Rifle was nerfed because it's Gallente technology and the Gallente's racial philosophy on combat is up-close-and-personal, high damage. The Assault Rifle does perform very well in the damage department, so a range reduction just makes sense when you have other options like the Scrambler Rifle who do slightly less damage but have slightly longer range. |

Well I spoke to CCP NotARealDev at Fanfest while I'm not there, and he told me that he's not a real dev, so....
Take claims to have spoken with the devs with a grain of salt when they're not coming from a well-known reliable source.
Well played, though, Don. Kind of surprised anyone took you seriously, to be honest. |
