Alright, i weren't really hoping for that to work out anyways. But could you go into a bit more detail on the equipment? How tough is the armor (and do we actualy wear it, does it differ throughout the calsses, and how do weapons classify? For example, can i arm an assault rifle loaded with HE bullets, and would it be a heavy weapon, or an assault?EDIT: do we also get to outfit our weapons with various trinkets, such as muzzle flash supressors and sets of interchangable scopes?

We've actually discussed most of this in the Paracom IRC chatroom...
Armour, currently, seems to just be high tech body armour. Yes, all of us have to wear some form of body armour. It differs upon individuals (see IC) but currently, most are pretty much high tech body armours with HUDs in the helmets.

Assault rifles are assault rifles no matter what ammo you put in. Assault rifles are mainly used by assaults and supports.
An LMG, Chaingun or Minigun is the realm of heavy weapons. Used by Heavies.
Sniper rifles are class specific to, well...Snipers. Not much else to say...
And finally, shotguns. SHOTGUNS ARE FUCKING AWESOME! JOIN WILL AND LAZAR AS THE ASSAULT CORPS!!!

Course we get various trinkets.

If you have questions about tiers, we're following this.
Conventional tech(Regular weapons.) Electronical (Vibroblades, Gauss guns, etc later on perhaps plasma and lasers) Energy (no, THIS IS LASER AND PLASMA) and finally, ethereal...
