I was talking to a couple of guys online the other day and the topic turned to weapons, namely the alien guns. We all agreed that certain guns were pretty awesome, and others were sort of boring (shock pistols). But we all thought that it would be pretty sweet if you could get alien guns to use (I know the Vex mythoclast and a couple of grenades are alien weapons, but I mean more of them).
So, my question is this: Would you want to see something like alien weapons as useable guns in the game? I figure that the Fallen, out of any of the other races, would have guns that humans could use, since they're about the same size and have similar hands to human hands, but the other races have guns we could still use as well.

For starters, they are alien weapons so it doesn't get much more "exotic" than that. Secondly, the innate abilities of a lot of these weapons are so powerful I don't think they should be anything less than an exotic as far as rarity goes. Vandals' arc rifles fire HOMING projectiles. Minotaur void cannons create so much splash damage that they are almost like rapid-fire rocket launchers (Hydra cannons too but those are probably way too big). Colossus minigun? Enough said there, haha.
