[Suggestion] Add firearms to workshop for exotic/ren
Given that there's knives, bows, and even crossbows in the workshop, I think having some options for firearms would be nice. If you wanted to vary it from the current options, it could be a basic flintlock for simple starter weapons, with higher end being potential Revolvers. It just feels like a waste to specialize into something that takes a lot of time, effort, and resources to obtain in missions outside of Open World or 7/30 day timers. Once your objective is done, that gun is gone and isn't coming back, so you have to spend a LOT of time getting it back for very little gain once more. So having some options of Pistols, and Firearms would be ideal as a workshop item. Plus, we can have the the "Icarus: No Rescue" trailer have a bit more accuracy. "On Icarus, a handful of exotics would get you a new suit, a radar, a rifle." Can we get that rifle part, please?

Max MergedHi! I hope you can add a channel on discord for workshop items that I think could be essential to Icarus. Considering we are coming from space-age technology the workshop items seem very broad and almost random. I think a huge missing part of the workshop that needs to be added is the visual branch, think core items needed to be suggested and added to the game.
Example of new, essential workshop items could be as follow:
-Flashlight module for suit
-Flares (ground flares that can be put on the ground to follow a trail. Or for lighting up parts of the cave)
-Flare Gun (Similar to the green flare arrow, but would be red and with a specific amount of charges or maybe unlimited, fired into the air and lasts in the air a few moments to allow friends to see ur location and also light up surrounding area when dark)
-Laser light module or item (we are coming from a space-age technology and have a laser you could use to point out the stars, a distant mountain/location, or prey would be awe -

Wixa MergedIt would be nice to have a basic gun to buy. It could be a blunderbuss or even a pistol. Some players prefer guns to bows and there are no starter guns in the workshop.

1000Q MergedI want a 3D-printed emergency self-defense product with an integrated magazine. (It will break as soon as the magazine is used up. It will be repaired at the space station.)
The 3D printed items in this game are super cool.
I want not only guns but also items that are not currently in the workshop, such as sickles and shovels. -

JT MergedThis is a huge omission especially since Sol talks about how a handful of exotics would buy you a gun in No Rescue Part 1 but on Earth it would buy anything you wanted... so yeah the lack of guns in the workshop is frankly absurd.

Villieldr MergedPlease add firearms (all of them) to the workshop. I realise that each mission should be a grind to that, but when your mission is to build a basic base, it feels like a total waste to make a rifle "in case you need it". Also, this could be a reason to introduce more difficulty into future missions

westor MergedCurrently the only talent weapon that is missing is Firearms.. isn't this too much unfair? why people have to craft for firearms only? and not be able to buy them under Workshop? i'm pretty sure you can create some firearms weapons out there for people that have spend their talent points in firearms because now the only worth talent class is archer bow/crossbow , and everything else is useless...

Michael Marshall MergedYes. Please work on adding guns to the workshop. This would be a nice feature. Even if it’s an item that cost of a lot of ren and exoctics, at least make the feature available. Even if it means grinding missions and saving up just like we did to get the top tier bows and crossbow.

Uzrael MergedThere is a significant gap in the current workshop, for a Tier 4 equivalent firearm:
SMG - using pistol rounds, this compact weapon provides immediate firepower to prospectors. Fully automatic, high-RoF, short ranged with low accuracy. Would benefit from Pistol Talents [Proficiency, Handling, Powerup].
With a pistol ammo bundle purchasable in the workshop, to provide some initial ammo while prospectors get their base up and running, this would increase the value of the Pistol line in Icarus.
I'm sure new firearms will come with Tier 5 in New Frontiers. Following the current progression, I'd expect we might see an Auto-pistol, Assault Rifle, Sniper Rifle and PDW. Adding an SMG to the workshop now would not interfere with that. -

Ace MergedSince we have a new set of rarer red exotics, and firearms don't get much use, it would be nice to drop in with a choice of firearms and some ammo. They would ideally be at or above the tier 4 standard, similar to the larkwell compound bow. Ammo could be 50 exotics to research and then 10 exotics for a pack of 25 bullets or something of the sort. Would be nice to have a revolver or small mag pistol like a 1911. Would just be nice to be able to use guns more frequently without the almost hour grind to tier three.

Onewayout MergedCould we not have station based firearms to buy. And a handheld mining lasers? I feel that a tier 5 section should available now with laser powered buildables. I would really love to see purchasable firearms in station a nice shotgun to go with the tactical backpack and a mining laser backpack combination

Scott MergedCan we have the addition of Firearms and ammo to the Orbital Exchange, we already have high level bows/Crossbows and Arrows/Bolts. I'd like to be able to start with a hunting rifle and some ammo etc just to speed up the progression of the standalone missions

Javash MergedY'all have done such a great job at the mechanics of, well basically everything, especially firearms. Maybe go beyond the .308 version you have now for open world and allow us to use these wonderful creations in missions, and maybe delve into the magnums like the 338 and 300 H&H. and snipers with an actual scope view. Rifles and shotguns are the best Ive seen here in any game including RDR2O for sound and action imo
