So let's say the adept has 3 slots: can we choose Pistols, Assault Rifles and Shotguns instead of pistols, smg's and heavy weapons?

I think the 3 slots are independant of the Heavy weapon. It reads to me that your class has x slots + heavy weapon

So there's going to be a Disable/Enable heavy weapons Button?

"You don't have to bring heavy weapons with you if you don't want"

WOOT!

And then you get surprise attacked by an Atlas and you're like "No problem, let me just bull out my M920 Cain- aaaaaaaawwwwwww."

Watched gamescom gameplay footage with Atlas fight? He was defeated ridiculous easily. Though the difficulty the devs are showing us is "Ultra Easy"... Atlas just turns his back to you while shooting Liara...

Yeah I watched it, and I'm not being serious.

It's up to 3 weapon types plus Heavy weapon.
So yeah any three types you want and you have the option of NOT bringing in a heavy weapon

Then, what's the point of the SMG? I honestly can't think of any reason not to just use the AR over the SMG if we get the option to choose seeing how the SMG was just a poor man's AR (except the Locust).

I wonder if there are any bonuses for not carrying weapons? For example, abandoning heavy weapons could give you +10% storm speed.

Yes as was confirmed by a developer. I posted it before.

Yesss. Finally my adept can stop looking like an overparanoid lunatic. Two weapons is all I need.

Actually I would say the Locust is the ONLY SMG that fits the "poor man's AR" category.

The Tempest was great for taking down big, tough enemies at medium to close range because it could put such a huge volume of fire down range, something that no AR could do as effectively.

Although I do hope they make more of a distinction overall between SMGs and ARs

And gets this response from Manveer:

"Yes you can choose to only carry a pistol if you want"


There's so going to be pistol only runs in ME3 for me

*after hearing the depressing news about pre-set armor options...*

Aren't the primary differences between the two the calibur of ammunition used and effective range? I just googled the skorpion SMG and the M-16 assault rifle, and the rate of fire for both weapons is comparable so that's not really a defining factor for either class of weapon.

In short, both weapons function similarly, but fill different roles. An SMG's compact size makes it ideal for close quarters fighting (especially indoors), while the assault rifle (a misnomer imo) is better suited to taking on opponents down range with clearer lines of sight.

The more I think about it, the sillier it seems to me for Commander Shepard to be toting around an assault rifle in the first place. In so far as ME2's style of combat is concerned, at any rate. ME1 makes more sense, but even in that game an SMG (if they had been in that game) and a Sniper rifle would have probably been more than sufficient.

SMG's are common in small units, and Shepard leads a small unit. That said, you'll have to pry my revenant from my cold, dead hands!

SMG is a much better shield stripper than any AR.

Tempest and Mattock FTW!!!

Now if only Infiltrators can pack the Widow and a grenade launcher too, I'm all set.

That's how I used to take out the Ymir Mechs in ME2 as an Engineer. Send a drone at them and they turn to fight it while you can shoot at their backs from behind.

Admittedly, the Atlas is supposedly smarter than a mech but, to be fair, Liara was the one in his field of vision shooting at him and it's not like the operator can feel the bullets in the unit's back as he's just in the driver's seat.

Still, it did seem a bit easy.

I desagree. The Revenant has a higher ratge of fire with sismilar ammo capacity, and being an AR has higher damage per round

Vertigo, could you please ask if its possible to change class when you import a save file from me2?

I did my ultimate run with the soldier type, but I want to go back being a vanguard in me3.

Thanks on beforehand.

You can change the class when importing a saved file from ME1 into ME2. I don't see a reason why they'd change that in ME3

In real life the difference between a SMG and an AR is the power behind the round. SMG’s have shorter barrels fire pistol rounds which carries smaller amounts of gunpowder in the casing, while AR have longer barrels and fire, what else?. Rifle rounds with larger amount of gunpowder. This makes for significantly higher muzzle velocity for the AR than the SMG. Higher muzzle velocity translates into higher damage to the target. Although most SMG’s fire higher caliber rounds (usually 9mm) than AR’s (usually 7.62 or 5.35 NATO), the higher muzzle velocity of the AR round trumps the bullet size advantage for the SMG.
 
Special ops branches while preferring the shorter and more maneuverable SMG for close combat, always have wanted the power and more controllable characteristics of the AR.
Weapons manufacturers have resolved the assault rifle’s size disadvantage compared to the SMG by introducing collapsible stocks and bringing the bridge of the weapon closer to the firing mechanism thus reducing the overall length of the rifle without reducing the length of the barrel. So most Special ops today carry AR’s although at first sight they look like SMG’s

Well, that was because "you died" and were rebuild, which would make sense that you could chose whatever you want to be/look. That excuse isnt the case this time...so.....

If you happen to run across where that was said, could you give me the link? It would mean so much to me knowing that I dont have to do a 4th playthrough.

I'll just add that to the list of stuff I won't see and to look it up on YouTube some time after release.
