I know that the underslung carbine is not in the game, but it IS listed in the updated Prima Offical Strategy guide for RoTW!! I just found this out today while browsing the guide in my local ebx games store and I wrote down the stats listed, so here they are.
Damage: 144-695 Type: Kinetic Special Damage: (Blank) Attack Speed: 2.75-2.25 Action: 130-85 Wound Chance: 1-9% Range: 50 CL: 40 Certification: (Blank)

CL 40, with a max damage of less than 700?
Yeah, that sounds about like the kind of weapon the devs would give us.
God knows we're too powerful to be allowed to have anything more. </sarcasm>

who says anything about them giving it to US? The certification column(which listed skills needed for other skill specefic weapons) WAS blank after all.

Yeah, because according to some on the GCW board, we'll be overpower when concussion shot becomes a mez, and we can turn that into an AOE attack......yup, fear us.....

In all fairness, no was ever told about the planned strengthof the Underslung Carbine to my knowledge. Although considering how cool it looks, I think we allhoped that it would be quite destructive. But I wouldn't get upset about the statslisted in a strategy guide. Things have a tendency to change around here, and if we ever do get the Underslung Carbine in-game (the one sitting on the shelf in the tutorial doesn't count) I hope it will pack more punch.

There better be a higher level version. It'd be kinda anti-climatic to introduce the Star Wars mini-gun as a weapon you use for a very brief window (CL40-50).

well ^_^ with my idea that Minigun would be used as a CL50+ weapon by Commandos. Another win for my idea
The question I have about all this is.... Why is it in the prima guide. The devs were telling us months and months ago that it would not be in game so It is not a surprise that it isn't and yet Prima has some other info???

I thought the while deal with the underslung was that is was "underslung" so maybe it gavea special attack like the cybernetic arms or something. That would be neat, but not revolutionary. I'll wait for the patch for that
