Here's a place to dump new weapons suggestions for Cryptic North to implement into CO... just ideas for what you want to see. This is also a spot to gripe about the lack of weapons and whatnot and discuss NPC weapons we can't have, etc.

Anime Pistol #3
One of the default pistols.
Looks a lot like the Uzi/Mac-10 analog in default pistols.
Handle: @drgmstr
"Embrace your dreams"
Come Check Out My PRIMUS Database Page!
The one that's paper thin, doesn't have a barrel aligned with the cylinder, and has a muzzle flash to the side? Yeah, my point here is that they suck.
Not that I'm seeing.
It's not a pistol. It's an SMG, and the character's left hand hangs just in front of the muzzle gripping nothing.
GUNS:
1-M1911
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/26/M1911A1.png
2-Colt SAA
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/36/1956prime2.jpg
3-Mauser C96
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ae/Mauser_C96_prototype_1895Mar15.jpg
Three probably the most iconic and overused weapons. Both Colts are also higly generic and can be used as models for many other guns. After all, how many pistols are more or less exact copies of M1911? Or how many SA revolvers is just copies and upgrades to Colt SAA?
Mauser is also very pulp era weapon. It is actually much more recognised than P08 used in our pulp hero costume set.
4-Pocket pistol
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/12/1972_Walther_PP.jpg
Doesn't need to be Walther, may be Makarov, or Kel-Tec, or whatever, but the game needs pocket pistol model, at least one. If model size is a concern, just enlarge it with silencer.
5-Flintlock rifle/musketoon
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/be/Musket.jpg
Because we have flintlock pistol, but no rifle to complement it. Strange. But we have completely not fitting wheel-lock arquebus (but again, no contemporary wheel-lock pistols to go with it).
6-At least ONE model for bolt action rifle
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/69/M1903_Springfield_-_USA_-_30-06_-_Arm%C3%A9museum.jpg
Doesn't realy matter if Springfield, Mauser, Smellie, or whatever. But at least ONE classic bolt-action model.
Because of iconic.
BLADES:
1-Spatha/Migration Era Sword/Viking Sword
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/59/Spatha_end_of_second_century_1.jpg
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/de/Viking_swords.jpg
An absolutely generic Dark Age blade, probably the most overused sword design in the history of the West. Something of use from Roman to Viking toons, and that's a quite of a timespan. A large family of basically identical blades differentiated only by their hilt designs.
2-Claymore
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/50/Scottish_claymore_replica_%28Albion_Chieftain%292.jpg
3-Flamberge
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1a/Dresden-Zwinger-Armoury-Sword.04.JPG
4-Espadon
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/08/Espadon-Morges.jpg
CO has far too many Asian blades and not enough western ones. Heavy weapon unlocks are spammed with anime-like swords and katanas, but there is no single proper western sword. Weapon pack is also filled mostly with Chinese-looking blades.
One of CU villains is immortal woman using Claymore blade. Well, she'd have a really hard time trying to do so in CO, looking at all our silly and poor HW unlocks.
Also, it's really time to bring back the old weapon unlocks.
- Machette
- Toolbox hammer (slightly oversized)
- Flanged Mace
- Normal Baseball bat
Claws
- Tonfa
- Three-blade Katar
- Gun Blade!
- Brass knuckles
- None
Heavy Weapons
- Guitar
- Caveman Club
- Claymore (any blade with more realistic proportions).
- Spear
- Halberd
- Glaive
- Jousting Lance
- Large baseball bat
- Rebar with concrete chunk
- Bent road sign
Sniper Rifle
- Crossbow
I cannot stress enough how much I want polearms for Heavy Weapons. Yes I know a set would be better but skewer's a great attack and would likely look completely fine with most polearm models.
How about a simple New Purple Gang drop for a simple, short dagger.

Add a trident to that polearms list and I'm with ya 100%.

I'd like to be able to use my Qularr assault rifle as a sub machne gun (and for energy rifle powers too).
I'd like to be able to use my Qularr pistol as a gadgeteer pistol.
I'd like to have a chance to get the Qularr Shotgun i didn't get when it was still available.
I'd like to have a chance to get the Qularr Minigun i didn't get when it was still available.
The game has so many weapon unlocks that dissapeared when they got rid of the power replacer items which dropped them. Plenty of visual effects too. I would like more wepon items, but i want these more.

This. I'd be plenty happy if they'd just put back what they made inaccessible.

Looks like a sporting rig w/ a 5 round clip capacity. Beatiful design too.
This had me laughing for a good while. XD
Go give Team Fortress 2 a shot and it'll explain itself fairly quickly.
To steer back on topic, TF2 does have some nice weapon skins fo miniguns (and we desperately need more of those).
Whoever you are, be that person one hundred percent. Don't compromise on your identity.

I see there are more Munitions weapons Suggestions
I will personally would like to see more Fantasy-JRPG Swords (yeah this may turn off some people)
Hello Soul Calibur
Hello Tales of Destiny swordians
Hello more Tales of Series Swords
Also Bows, Daggers, Staffs Polearms, Rods (there are TRIDENTS in Lemuria, there is the Trident Device which has a skin which could be easily be used as weapon)
Where's the hilt?
How do you hang on to it?

Also, before putting anything new weapons in, they could start by putting back all the ones that got removed while "On Alert" was introduced...
Check Kaizerin´s list to see what i mean.
I support "Sell Z-store items individually" & Japan Zone
oh yeah, good point.
Now NO ONE will see this thread! mauhahaahahaahahaar
To the West.
That's exactly my point here.
Want to make a modern-day, non super-hi-tech swordsman? Here's a stick. Or a farm tool.
Right now our options are 'Chinese stuff', 'hi-tech space weapons', and 'fantasy weapons', and 'historical weapons'.
This is supposed to be a superhero game set in the present day. Some weapons with a more modern twist would work. We don't need jeweled broadswords, elf sabers, etc. We need something with a more contemporary feel.
Those last two are fairly universal.
adn the first one looks like several exhibits at the fremantle museum of old maces.Where i realized that clerics weapons, not being meant to draw blood was a joke

Variations like this:
(minus the gun part)
or this:
or this even:
Would be nice to see for a single blade, as well as incorporating the TK blades as single blades for melee builds (but PLEASE fix the horrible coloring options fir them ><)
Also we NEED polearms as well as more/better options for staffs not to mention non tech bows and even the tech bows without the "laser" additions.
@Aleatha1011 in CO | Keeper of the Cheesecake since Nov. 2011| Bunni BOT is on PRIMUS! | Come check out my deviantart page!
Can we just opt in for a new powerset that revolves around the long awaited pole weapons and spears etc?
Also I'd like to see some bigger epic katana style weapons for heavy weapons
Even though these weren't prefered to be used back in japan, they still did tons of damage.
But yeah really, a bit more detail on some of the blades in game would be peachy
My list of weapons I'd like to see....
Sai
Flails (Nunchakas, Medevial Flails, Ball-Chain)
Polearms (Spears, Halberds, Naginata, etc.)
Daggers (Maybe even a matching power set)
Anime Fantasy Blades (Single, Dual-Wield, etc)
More guns (Both Modern and Sci-Fi)
"Nose to the wind, I go!"
"I found a bug in Beta, Cryptic squished it. STO Founder and Proud LTS member of STO and CO."
Funny enough, when looking at some of the Gatling gun customizations, one did/could look like the Brass Beast or the Crank Gun from Bioshock: Infinite.
Also, reposting from another thread:
Shotgun
Winchester M1887
I mean we can get these as back acessories, why aren't they available as actual weapon models?
Sniper Rifle
Scoped Whitworth Rifle
I think that, but only after retuning all missing weapon costume unlocks (they're the most logical priority), CO could use more iconic weapon models. Guns and blades that are recognisable at the first sight.
Also:
And germanic sax/saex:
Aaand:
Please, disregard that they're transformers. It's about their blade models. A set of blades replacing character hands could be a neat weapon skin for unarmed martial arts, might, or claw powersets:
Yes, we do have Roi'nesh arms, but they're very organic looking and their "hand" parts can't be set to metal material. A strictly tech-looking equivalent would be nice.
Hammertime!
Yeah, let's go with those.
Especially since we're already aware that a certain weapon from CoX exists with the near-same model in CO (Falcata):
I also agree that daggers and knives need to be more prevalent, as there is next to NONE in game, and the only ones available are pushing "short sword".
