In the main ME:A MP thread there has been some discussion of favorite weapons. However, since I think the success of ME:A MP is going to depend largely on the gameplay, and since the success of the gameplay depends greatly on the playability and balancing of the weapons available, I thought a careful appraisal of our preferred firearms is in order: 1. Which ME3MP weapons do you insist be made available in ME:A MP? (Meaning PRE-ORDER CANCELLED!! if not available) 2. Which weapons do you want to be left permanently in the Milky Way? 3. What new types of weapons would you like to have available? 4. How important should heavy weapons be in ME:A? How about grenades?Obviously since the Andromeda mission leaves before/during ME3, that should theoretically preclude some of the ME3 weapons from being available (favorites such as the Javelin, Black Widow, Carrier, Talon, and Reegar* were introduced in ME3) but the series generally played fast and loose with logic and continuity** so we could end up with all the best guns anyway. On the other hand, one (such as I, the Saikyo Master) would assume the organizers of the Andromeda Mission would load the team up with all kinds of cool experimental prototypes. All I'm saying is, we'd better have some Kroggen Warlords aboard because I'm all about weapons that only the richest and most powerful warlords can afford, if you know what I mean, ha ha ha ha ha! Hat tip to Beerfish and Cirvante and N7 Swan Killer; we've already seen a few weapons in the gameplay trailer, most prominently the Purrana, a Dojo-endorsed tm weapon, as well as the Avenger, Carnifex, Reegar, Revenant***, Particle Rifle (?), and Widow/Black Widow. My extremely important opinion follows: 1. Besides the Preferred Dojo Firearm, which I understand is making a glorious return, I think we need to see the return of the Claymoar, Mattock, Predator, Avenger, Phaeston, and other "classic" ME weapons. There ought to be a couple weapons for each race participating in the mission (thus the return of the Adept and Disciple or similar Asari weapons) 2. No need for the Adas, Reegar, Carrier, and anything heavily pug-abused. Honestly, I don't think it's that realistic to include that many Derperus weapons even though there should have been about one googolplex of each in the galaxy by the end of ME3 at the rate the Illusive Man spammed out his goons. The Katana, Shuriken, and other non-damaging junk that nobody uses outside of challenges. 3. Equippable melee weapons such as swords, axes, chainsaws, small appliances, etc. But also keep omniblades and bayonets available on ARs, SRs, and shotguns. Not sure how/if this will work out based on what the trailer depicts. 4. I'd prefer multiple heavy weapons with varying effects as seen in ME2. I also think it would be fun if heavy weapon damage could be toggled to affect other players, but I don't see how that could be done without placing it in a separate PvP mode. To say nothing of the endless trolling potential. On second thought, forget I said this. *I'm only kidding. Maybe
**I mean equipment logic and continuity. Except for all that story stuff that didn't make sense, of course.
***I'm not gonna let you down. See below. TL;DR Version:
Teh M-76 Revenant
YAAAA-HHHHHHHHHHOOOOOO!!!!!! Don't ask me who this "Dan" guy is, BTW.

Overall I'd like to see better balancing. Meaning that every weapon they put into the new MP should also be a viable option on the highest difficulty. No need to have a bunch of weapons that are basically useless like in ME3MP. That being said I also don't like a lot of the weapons some people use. Weapons that just don't feel like weapons, like the Acolyte and other fancy stuff people carry around that might be useful but doesn't make a powerful KABOOM.
In almost every game I mostly rely on weapons that do a lot of damage in as little exposure time as possible. That means powerful shotguns, sniper rifles, rail guns, sometimes revolvers and stuff like that. So they better have a Claymore and (Black) Widow in this game... Javelin is also fun and Wraith is just awesome for most kits when the Claymore is too heavy...

If playing as a caster or pure mêlée character, I think it should be possible to opt out of equipping a weapon at all.

Well Black Widow and Piranha are in game so I'm cover minus the wraith. The wraith needs to make it back in. Crusader would be cool as well provided they use a more saber like fire mechanic. Just wonder is the MP piranha will have a 10 round clip.

My Black Widow is back, as well as the Reegar, which is good to see.
Would love to get the GPS as well, a great shotgun with good damage, can hit at range, and is also fairly light. Seeing as the Geth won't be making the trip, I doubt I'll be seeing the GPS again...

As long as the Acolyte is still there, I'll be happy. Same goes for the Hurricane or something similar.
Can't really think of any new weapons to add, though. I mean, is there even anything left ME3MP didn't have in the end?

Claymore, Widow(yes, the vanilla one, I like it better than her Black cousin, if only because it's way more stylish) and Saber. Those three are a must. I'll be happy to see Raider as well, but other than that, nothing comes to mind.

Interesting question, but of course I would want to ask if ME3 actually had ME2 weapons like the Viper, Revenant, Shuriken and Vindicator though. The answer is of course that it didn't, it just had some that happened to have those names and similar (but oddly crappier) models.
But assuming we mean more than just carrying over names, I would want:
1. ME2 Revenant 2. ME2 Viper 3. ME2 Vindicator 4. Claymore 5. No melee weapons

1. The Saber, the Collector SMG, the Raider, the Javelin & the Scorpion. I picked one from each weapon category; yes, I left the Venom out because realistically, as much as I love it, I'll bet if it's left out there will be something better to replace it. There is no replacing the weapons I named.
2. I'd be happy if I never see an Acolyte or Reegar again.
3. The dual wield idea is nice in theory but it has to be executed properly. Not really a necessity IMO though...
4. If done right, heavy weapons could be crazy in a good way. Just don't need people spamming M-920 Cains all over....

What I like about mass effect is weapons that promote diverse play styles ,so with that in mind.
Shotguns: claymore bc it's the ultimate shotgun, graal- bc it's still a badass shotgun but it's a damn spike thrower, a visceral and satisfying weapon with a damn good range and damage, venom- bc goddamn stagger lock is good enough for the enemies too, great ammo application weapon that opens up some interesting play styles revolving around stagger, multi detonation powers and close quarters Melee, and it doesn't give a fuck about troublesome humanoid enemies like phantoms.

I got interrupted earlier but I'd add the crusader to the shotgun list. I'm sure I'm missing something there.
Sniper rifles- Black widow is awesome but truly I want the regular one shot widow back. I love the mantis, keep the sound and the recoil action from it, I love the feel of it. Kishock also great, make it the old Kishock that kicked banshee ass though, it's not an easy weapon to use make it higher reward. I love the no hip fire penalty too. Javelin also should be brought back. Indra is different but honestly a sniper that shoots like an AR is just weird.
Pistols- talon and arc pistol need to be back, two of the best overall weapons in the game. Executioner should be back and should be more powerful. Acolyte is different but it really trivialized the game IMO. Eagle definitely should be back. Suppressor also should be back, they really need to work on the boss critical hit with it though, such a great weapon versus infantry, it shouldn't be totally useless against bosses.
Smg- hurricane is a little too awesome, it's the damn harrier without ammo constraints. BPP should be more awesome than the hurricane because of the recoil inconsistency. Locust is pretty decent but almost like the eagle of smgs.
ARs- saber bc it's too damn sexy. Typhoon.
