Weapon Skills in 2.5

(1/1)

profit:
I finished two full campaigns (normal and hard) on 2.4, downloaded 2.5 dev. Kind of curious why my Sniper Rifle, Coil Gun and many, many other weapons now ALL list Assault as the weapon's skill. There isn't a single weapon I can find (yet, anyway, and I've even tried multiplayer loadouts to skip to some of the later game goodies) that uses the Heavy Weapons skill, either.

Is this intentional, just a bug in the description, or what?

H-Hour:
Weapon skills are tied to firemodes, not weapons. Your snap shots will always be assault, but the aimed shots will be sniper (you can scroll through the firemodes when looking at the object info on the equiment window).

The heavy weapons skill is no longer used and planned to be removed.

GPS51:
Out of curiosity, what will things like heavy laser and machine gun use for skills? Just assault?

DarkRain:
Most, things were reassigned to assault, but some (like flamethrower) use close skill now
