A few years ago some weapon concepts were presented, but it seems (I may be wrong) only the Stardyne ST-11 Assault Rifle and the Tessara Rifle were added to the store for sale, or as rewards for subs.
I can't find the original forum post with the original images, so I extracted them from a video that I have saved here on my PC, and since there's no information about those weapons, I would like to ask what you guys think these weapons will be like.

And here's one I'm looking forward to using in game:

This is definitely a sniper rifle.

And it says "50x SCOPE" which is quite impressive for a sniper rifle in any game, but it makes sense if it's supposed to be used against Kaijus, as the sniper may have to maintain a greater distance from a Kaiju than they would when fighting a common enemy.

Also there in the small writings there is an indication of the caliber of the weapon, 7.62mm.

That SMG looks cool too, and I like the fact that they took inspiration on real weapons to make that one.
I'd like to know if the real weapons were the only inspiration perhaps they were inspired by other things too.

Lets say we are talking about defensive technology that could also be used as a weapon too e.g.

The poison dart frog but that's not your typical weapon hmm

Imagine a medic with a suit technology that is as stylish switching to a defense mode, and when opponents come into contact they get poisoned depending on how much defense they have.

Perhaps you like charging into enemies in bright suits and look smug doing so too?

This acid looks painful for more direct intervention as opposed to fart gas supreme lingering around casually!

It would be awesome to have guns and abilities with biological or chemical damage. I hope they add something similar to the the Recluse battleframe that we had in Firefall, it doesn't have to be a dedicated frame though, as long as we can make a build aimed at chemical/biological damage I'd be happy.
Also I think having a stylish skin inspired by those poison dart frogs would be great! Maybe even make it as an effect of a skill/ability, to make it independent of the skins we're wearing, so when I activate the defensive mode you suggested, it would change the appearance of the frame and apply the stylish frog looks regardless of the skin of the frame.
