    I love weapons that make things go boom, but my friend that I play every game with doesn't approve of me terraforming the land. :(

    I like the idea of the AR/Sniper combo.

    Sniper to pick off a few at a distance and AR to finish cleaning up.

    I enjoy single shot guns with massive damage (not necessarily sniper rifles exclusively), or semi/burst fire guns. I will also enjoy dual wielding pistols, and shotguns.

    Rifles have always been my favorite choice, however. This game needs a Mosin Nagant. ;3

    Odd that Shotguns haven't made the list, being undoubted kings at close up, even mid range if you're using slugs and are a decent shot. Though for a personal choice...probably a futuristic ar, kit it out with explosive rounds and something like the railgun attachment from PE2 for range/sniping.

    I would love to see a reference to the bowcasters seen in the Star Wars universe to be included, nothing fancy just a crossbow looking weapon that fires green bolts. Seeing that and very sci-fi weapons like a tesla cannon that would unleash lightning or railguns of any size or sort would entertaining. And seeing how the viewpoint in the game is from close to mid-range, I think shotguns would be excellent.

    I would've put it in but I didn't think of it at the time, we can't edit polls. (Probably to keep things balanced and fair)

    I don't have enough information regarding any of these weapons to give a proper answer. Assuming nobody in this thread has got an early copy of Starbound, what in-game knowledge regarding these weapons do you have to base your answers off of? Pictures?

    A tad bit silly if you ask me.

    :iswydt: I will use a semi-automatic tri-rocket launcher that phases thru blocks and has heat/cold seeking capilblities if you were to ask me

    By the way, I'm interested if there're going to be any basic guns? You know, like simple black assault rifle, or your basic SPAS-like shotgun. I'm afraid, that because of the amount of customization, every weapon will have too original and even bizarre design :unsure: I remember the suggested idea of unique, blueprint weapons, that are less customizable, than PG weapons. Maybe some of them (cheapest and most widespread ones) would be these basic rifles and shotguns?

    Well, I intend to try to use weapons more along the lines of pistols, light automatic weapons like SMG's, and on occaision, a more heavily ranged weapon. I'm not really playing it on the idea of a damage dealer, And trying to play more along the lines of something like an Engineer. It seems that light weapons and more science gear would be more fitting for that, but I do intend to attempt to play exclusively with firearms. I have to admit, I'm also immensely excited about procedurally generated customizable weapons. You have to love the idea of building the gear that's going to keep you alive out there.

    Sounds like a great idea. It would be nice to be able to get a few weapons built by your self so you know what your getting, but also the surprise of opening a chest and finding one of the best weapons ever.

    I'm a Melee at heart & my Main will be a Melee... but i'm liking some of these Sci-Fi Guns... so I might just make a Gun Using Alt! :D The Alt's Primary Weapon will be Rocket Launchers, Secondary will be Assault Rifles, & I seriously hope there will be Laser Rifle-like Guns in-game! :DD
