Actually, the main reason I insist on keeping guns (besides them being iconic for the game) is because melee is too weak in PvP. Haven't we all seen 10-minute duels? How often did people actually get killed in melee PvP combat without being locked in a room? A properly armored an decently skilled combatant can set pacifist and autoflee and become practically unkillable in melee, and while we are looking into ways to reduce that particular fact, we can't do too much to the melee code because it has to remain balanced against NPCs. Therefore, guns are important or else we get the situation where people know they're nearly invulnerable and thus behave like idiots.
We are almost certainly removing machineguns and limiting the upper range of calibers, however. Those never really benefitted the game.

Machine guns were fairly op. I took (Whatever version) Betty down to half health with a full auto burst. Glad we're keeping some guns in.

Barring any unforeseen complications, it is my personal hope that we can open the game next weekend. Don't take this as a definite promise, but I think it's possible as long as nothing goes wrong.

Yes on the variable pre-game shops. No on lasers.
