I want them to make re-skins or alternate models of every weapon - not just for appearance, but also because it lets you take two of the same gun, and lets you have two unique customisations of each gun.
Say you're a Medium body type, with a love for the Gerund AR, and the other guns don't really have the same impact. If you're going Soldier, and want to really hit hard, you can go for the Grenade Launcher attachment, then swap it out for a speed sling when you're playing as an Operative - fast switching is more important when you're behind enemy lines.
Except that you can't do that, because you can only have one set of customisation options for each weapon.
I play as a Light, and I want to be able to kit out one SMG for my Operative, and the other for my Medic. As an Operative, a Silencer is practically required gear on every weapon, but not as much when I'm playing Medic. When I'm running around as a Soldier, I care even less for it. But for all three classes, my weapon of choice would be the Galactic - even though I'd need AT LEAST two customisations of it to truly do justice to what I want. Preferably 3, really. Red Dot on the Soldier version, Adjusted Ironsights on the other 2. Silencer on the Operative version, maybe a Muzzle Brake for the Soldier.
If there was an alternative skin for the Galactic (like the Fallout and Doom pack DLC), or a second gun with identical stats (like the Psycho and Spec Ops DLC), I could do this with ease.
EDIT: Not sure you'd count this as "new weapons" so I voted "no" on that option. Could really do with more options on that question though...
