So far we have two base heavy weapons, Machine guns and Rocket Launchers. Ammo is hard to come by, and these weapons are generally overpowered to compensate for limited use.
Lets bring more color to this heavy painting. Why should we be limited to simply Machine guns and Rocket Launchers. Yes, it's fun to deal loads of damage when given the chance, but it is beginning to feel all too familiar. If i can have a Fusion Rifle and Shotgun as a primary (Vex Mythoclast/ Universal Remote), Then shouldn't we be able to have different weapon classes for heavy weapons?
Think of the possibilities! Imagine a Shotgun Heavy weapon, That would be amazing to hold and fire! A Fusion Rifle Heavy weapon! A Hand Cannon Heavy Weapon. A Sniper Heavy weapon.
The designs would be so intricate and unique that it would feel euphoric to play with exotic heavy weapons like these.
The closest I feel to this concept would be the Tunderlord (Exotic Heavy Machine Gun). After a few upgrade it shoots out lightning rounds! This is what inspired this idea, because after thinking of that I imagined a Fusion Cannon Heavy Weapon that shoots out a destructive beam until the battery overheats.
Thanks for reading my post, and i hope you feel creative enough to post your ideas for cool new Heavy Weapons!
EDIT: If you liked what you read, and don't feel as creative, please bump to keep this thread alive, thanks!

A calibro 50 sniper rifle with 1 bullet for round
-

Laser weapons! Like wth, we need laser weapons!
-
I want a 4ft phallus like Saints Row.
-
I want a flamethrower heavy weapon: Always elemental, short range (like Fusion Rifle range) continuous damage in a stream. Each element could have different effects outside of just what shields they bring down, fire causes a DOT (doesn't stack and only starts once the opponent is no longer being damaged by the stream) Arc could have a wider spread like a fan of lightning blasting out rather than a stream and void could slow the targets movement whilst its damaging them. I must say I'm kind of let down by the weapon variety Bungie has put in this game. The weapons that are in it handle well and feel cool, but I kinda expected more from the people who made Halo.

flame-thrower
-
A fusion rifle heavy that works like a spartan laser almost. Long charge time with low ammo with massive payout
-
There should be a Melee heavy weapon ..... Like the sword
-
Any weapons these strike bosses have... Or that walker red laser cannon...
-
I'll take a Machine gun as my primary. Looking to find a good field scout/surplus perk HMG with a large enough capacity that the perk only needs to hit every so often. But, I know that it is not going to work out like I want. My TITAN needs to have an awesome Heavy as her main means of "aggressive negotiations" for exchanging my bullets for engrams and "talking" space turtle/space cockroach/space zombie/space calculator.

Not sure if anyone had the same idea but a melee weapon similar to the Sword of Crota. No matter the weapon type (Sword, Axe, Spear - multiples would be appreciated) the control scheme would be the same, even if the move was different. The only addition i'd make would be some sort of force shield that words in a similar manner to enemy shields, except the element is determined by your current subclass. Meaning if you're a Striker, you'll have to take extra care with Fallen.

A mortar cannon :-)
-
Rail gun sniper rifle heavy would be nuts one clip 7 bullets
-
I want to burn stuff I want a flame thrower.
-
Rail guns and gauss cannons bro. Spawn turrets with a 5-15 second timer. Energy melee weapons. Satellite canons

Edited by TwilightDragon: 10/27/2014 12:06:29 AMMore heavy weapons would be great. We could definitely use more energy-based weapons, so how about start there. I have a few ideas. Blaster: Essentially a reverse engineered Hive boomer. Fires blasts of energy in arcs. 8-12 round mag. Semi automatic. Shredder: A fully automatic shotgun with low pellet count, large magazine, decent range and spread. Would wreck in close quarters but can be used up to medium range. Disintegrator: Fires bolts of plasma at a decent fire rate that explode in a small radius for good damage. 12-18 round mag. Basically a cross between MG and rocket launcher.
-
Grenade launchers. Not rocket launches, grenade launchers. Or maybe a gun that fires 3 bolts that explodes.
-
[b]Ahem[/b] SWOOOOOOOORDS! Or any other Melee weapon.
-
Would love to have a belt fed mini gun, like some of the Cabal captain's have
-
I agree with what people say about Melee weapons but how is it connected with Heavy weapon ammo? Other then Melee weapons their is only one other thing I want to see. A Railgun, Where is your cover now Cabal?
-
Edited by Xienne_: 10/26/2014 11:06:52 PMGrenade launchers (hive boomers) Flamethrower Heavy Melee Weapons (sword of crota / big hammer) Mortars
-
You get a vex weapon from the raid Upcoming hive weapon from upcoming raid How about a minigun from the cabal from a new raid
-
Really nice idea
-
You guys know the railgun from halo 4? I would die to have a railgun as a heavy weapon!
-
I want a primary rocket launcher that fires like a scout rifle an uses primary ammo! Not too OP right?
