1)Yes

2)Yes though it seems the more that get added the more some of the ones that existed previously seem to deteriorate in value

3)Hard to choose just one. I'll try to split this into favorite of each weapon type.
  • Assault Rifle = Saber - I dont have the harrier but from what I've seen it would probably take #1 if I had it but for now this is my fav of them in multiplayer.
  • Shotgun = Reegar - Flat out rocks especially with my favorite character which is the vorcha sentinel
  • Heavy Pistol = Carnifex - Great, light, accuracy and decently powered shots for my power heavy characters
  • Sniper Rifle = Javelin or Valiant - Hard to pick. The javelin does have a bit of a load time between shots but the pure stopping power & the fact it has the highest natural penetration makes it a super cool SR. I also like it's shot sound. Valiant is awesome for its high ammo supply, extremely fast reload time, no recoil, and decent damage.
  • Submachine Gun = Hurricane - Turian soldier, need I say more...

There is a fine range of weapon types. As for there being weapons for every level, definitely. I would definitely take a look at the SMG class, as it is woefully underpowered for anything over bronze. The hurricane is awesome but it is the exception.
Favorite weapons: widow for eng/ infil, Talon for vanguard, saber for sent/ soldier, phalanx for adept

"Do you feel there is a good range of weaponry to choose from?"

Some what.

"Do you feel there is a weapon that fills every niche and level?"

Maybe, we do not have a full auto shotgun etc etc. However there are several tiers of weapons. Most of which do not belong in gold.

"With the above questions in mind, which is your favourite weapon overall?"

Black Widow, Claymore, Hurricane, paladin, harrier/sabre. I would like there to be more, but those are top favorite weapons because they are good enough to rock gold games.

Number one however would have to be the Black Widow. Cloaker can kill a gold trooper with a body shot if done right which really helps to slow the enemy tide.

1. Yes

2. Yes. But some of the ones I want to use, are too heavy, and taking waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long to level up to get their weight down to a useable level. I want to use my Wraith on my FQE, but have to settle for my Eviscerator X. Just as one example. I think what we have is fine, but just needs a little bit of fine-tuning.

3. Favourite? Well... the ones I use the most are probably the Carnifex, Claymore, Saber, and Eviscerator, but I wouldn't say they are my favorite, except for the Claymore. LOVE that shotgun! If the SMG bug were fixed, I'd probably add the Hurricane to that list, but until then, it's not, but it looks pretty. :)

We have a plethora of weapons to choose from. The problem is not all of them are effective at their respective roles.

Other weapons can fill the roles of multiple weapons at once, such as our beloved Geth Pulse Shotgun (which I'd rate on your scale as a Near-High.), while others, such as the incisor, can barely fill their own roles without extensive modification (which makes me question the manufacture's logic.)

...as for my favorite weapon? I very much so enjoy my Wraith, Claymore, Crusader, Eviscerator, Graal, Katana (see a pattern here? :wub:) Falcon, Revenant, and Viper (even before Pre-buff.)...The Phoenix's Stun baton as a light melee was also a nice touch, try and give newer classes a melee weapon for their melee attacks as well.

Sincerely, Brogan.

P.S. For Tuchanka!

1) Yes

2) No. Almost all the 'unique' weapons try too hard to fill another weapon's niche and are usually completely outclassed by anything similar.

3) The gun I enjoy using the most is probably the N7 Hurricane. Its insane damage is balanced by its massive recoil and low effective range.

 There is plenty of weapons to choose from.  

SMG's are little weak because the pistols when getting to level 4 and up the recharge speeds are equal to the SMG's.  The pistols then hand out more damage to the all enemies while SMG's have really do lackluster damage to armor.  The SMG's lackluster damage to armor really comes into effect when you are the last on left.  Although likely if you're running an SMG, it is back up or you are tossing biotics like crazy.

Favorite weapon is the Geth Plasma shottie with the on demand stun, high accuracy, and excellent damage to everything.

Geth plasma shotgun and falcon are my 2 favorite weapons. The game has a few enemies that many classes are just completely unequipped to deal with. Namely, the phantoms and the hunters. Staggering these enemies is the most effective way to deal with them on classes without incredible crowd control abilities or insane burst dmg powers.

There is a good range, some weapons types are under represented or represented in a way that is not as effective compared to the rest of the weapons. 

The weapon class that needs the most attention right now is the SMG.
The only benefit of using them is the light weight. However, an Avenger or a carnifex is light enough for caster classes and pack more punch than all of the smg's. In addition, the avenger/carnifex is not as restricted as the SMG's at ranged engagements. 

This issue could be resolved by adding additional modifications to the SMG classes. For example, a modification that increases the rate of fire, or an armor piercing mod that increases weight and stability 

Of course, seeing even more variety in the weaponry would also be nice. I'd personally love to see a fully automatic combat shotgun or a burst-fire assault rifle with high rate of fire (unlike the vindicator)

Derek Hollan wrote... "Do you feel there is a weapon that fills every niche and level?"

  

There are definitely lots of weapons populating both polar ends of the spectrum but very few intermediate weapons.

I am a big fan of the Krishock harppoon gun, and similar flechette based weapons. Too bad they are only usable when hosting due to the lag :/

1. Yes, but some weapon categories need more variety and balance. I feel absolutely no urge to use the Locust or the Shuriken, I just feel there is the best choice being Hurricane.

2. Tough question, but the answer is obvious: no, because there is always a new niche to come up with. Right now, a category that needs more variety, are the SMGs. More unique, one-of-the-kind guns like Falcon or Scorpion would be welcome.

3. Talon (utility), Phaeston, Vindicator, Disciple (design), Revenant (if only it was ME2 Revenant...)

Yes, although not in every weapon category.

Derek Hollan wrote...

Every level - yes. Every niche - yes, but not in a "good" way in some cases. For example, the Harrier outclasses everything in AR category, there's no point in using something else in any build(which uses an AR), objectively.

SMG - there's no point in using a SMG AT ALL, unless it's a Hurricane.

2. Yes.

3. I like to use the Reegar Carbine as a vorcha, and I damn love the Valiant. Also I use the Cerberus Harrier, when I go with ARs.

There is a very good range of weapons to choose from for sure.  I've discovered so many awesome combos to use.  Love it!

I suppose so on the second one.  I'm not sure what you mean though since there's not really friendly fire so under powered weapons don't seem to serve a real purpose, but there are some there.  Also on the other end of the scope, one could make arguments that a few guns (Krysae, black widow, Geth Pulse Shotgun, Claymore) outshine the majority of the rest.  I don't see them being much of an issue though.  I'm in support of tweaks though if they add to the over all expreience.  :blink:  

It really depends on what kind of character I'm using so I'll go with a long answer:

Vorcha: (sent and soldier) Wraith for sure, I like the 2 shots and it just suits him rather well.  

Batarian Sent.:  Still haven't used him much, but wraith seems pretty good, not the max cooldown, but his powers just seem a bit underwielming without a gun with some extra omph.  

Infiltrators: equal love for both Valiant and Geth Pulse shotgun...it really just depends on how I have the character set up.

Adepts: Carnifex, it's small enough to have the max cooldown bonus, and strong enough to make a good showing.  

Engineers: See above on the carni.

As for the rest of the soldiers and sentinels I don't use them much to be honest.


Edit: forgot about the vanguards......  I dont' really take part in that class though...I'm sure I'd probably give them the carni though or something light anyway.  :huh:

Yes.

Yes. But needs more interesting SMGs. The geth SMG was a step in the right direction. Also, all "exotic" weapons are a blast (weapons that don't shoot regular bullets: graal, scorpion, Reegar, GPS, etc...). So, about time we get a beam weapon! :P And how about a Geth Heavy Pistol?

Ah, slightly off-topic, we should definetely get a class that has CRYO grenades.

My favourites are, as mentioned above, the exotic guns: Scorpion, Graal, Reegar; and I absolutely love the Arc Pistol. Looks great, sounds cool, hits hard. Guns that go BOOM are also great fun, such as the Claymore and the Saber... it's that joyous feeling of overkill, I suppose...

Most effective weapon: Valiant.

Good variety but some guns plain out suck (Incisor,Locust = how could one of the best guns in ME2 be one of the worst in ME3? Striker, Geth Plasma SMG, Eagle)

Yes, we're even overburdened by useless weapons 

Yes - Krysae takes no skill, and if you add skill it devastates. It's still like prenerf Falcon

Claymore

Well, as stated AR are still underpowered. However, I didn't get the Harrier yet, so my judgement refers to the rest of them They pack too little damage and leave you exposed on gold too long.

Shotguns, pistols and sniper rifles are fine. I almost never use submachine guns, though. They are a slightly lighter version of the AR and pack a little less damage.

This means, on gold you're stuck with pistols, shotguns and sniper rifles. Make the others usable as well.

My favorite gun is the Valiant. Gets everything down very quickly (except primes and banshees) provided you know how to get of headshots. Since it fires three shots in a row with virtually no recoil, it allows you to improve your aim and you can use it as a "training gun", though for me it has begun the standard gun on my infiltrator.

"Do you feel there is a good range of weaponry to choose from?"


Yes.

"Do you feel there is a weapon that fills every niche and level?"


Carnifex. Easy to obtain and powerful through every level and class.

"With the above questions in mind, which is your favourite weapon overall?"


Valiant. Easier for me to use vs. a few of the other high power sniper rifles. If you can't get the scope on target it's not very useful. The Valiant is consistently the most steady and accurate of the bunch.

1. I think so.
2. Mattock, Geth Plasma Shotgun and Reegar Carabine are somehow universal weapons.
3. From many weapons I like, Javelin is the most interesting for me. But I don't like running for ammo every 3 kills from gun itself (shieldrape!) when I put AP mod and extended barrel on it.

1: Yes.

2: Yes, there are plenty of weapons that give players plenty of room for improvement, I'm probably going to be flamed for this but. The Geth plasma shotgun with its limited tracking on its projectiles and Krysae with being completely overpowered both using an infiltrator and without representing the low skill range. Up to guns that require leading of your target, the Spike thrower and Kishock representing the higher skill levels.

3: The M-22 Evicerator. good combination of manuverability, ammo capacity, and stopping power it works well on pretty much every class.

I loved the avenger dearly because it had a ton of rounds per mag, and reload time was almost instantaneous. Literally by the time you press the button it is reloaded

Allows you to keep a steady heat on the enemy.

Only switched to Phaeston once it reached rank X, and that weapon is nice too, basically the same.

Ive completed many hundred matches with the Avenger X, nothing else (its weightless at X, in the right hands)
