I remember an old Timber Wolf build that had 2ERLL / 2MPL as its central weaponry along with the shoulder missiles, that was a pretty good build. It sounds like the devs have tried to make it so you're better off not relying on one particular weapon base though, which is a bit disappointing, but I guess I should play it and see for myself at some point.
I wouldn't necessarily say that. For the most part, people build around their particular variant/weapon system. I run a Hunchback with either and LBX-10 or an AC20 and a couple medium lasers. The lasers are more for when I run out of ammo or lose my ballistic weapon. Now that they've added different armour types, internal structures and double heat sinks I think we'll start to see some interesting builds.
