Generic gun options?

[biggestoversight]

A bit of work to implement but what if there were some generic weapons that you could swap your weapon out for?
They could have certain niche properties tied to them; scaling with kills, extra guardian/walker damage or faster/different reload while being generally weaker than the generic option.

I actually really like this idea!

I feel like each kit in this game is pretty heavily tied to a particular design philosophy when it comes to their default weapon; there is an unreleased hero with the ability to switch on the fly however. So to be blunt, I wouldn't like this much. Most people would just gravitate to the "meta" weapon type. If you mean however you want something like "abrams can switch out his shotgun to a lower ammo count shotgun with a new ALT fire", I could see that happening, maybe.
