all have some source of inspiration, the designers of AC (or any other game), had some source of inspiration (other games), and put in the game that set up what he enjoyed most.
for me, cube is like a mix of conter strike and quake/doom.
I understand that perhaps the game's creators did not intend to add very powerful weapons (like turok, lol), but, it is possible to add a greater variety of weapons, without breaking the escence of the game(weapon balance).
exemple:
Lmg can have the same damage of AR(or less) and the SMG spreed(or more), and more ammo.
grenade launcher> more range compared to normal grenades, however, takes longer to explode.
--
its not game breaker, the shotgun was overpowerd and most did not complain.
I believe that now, the weapons are balanced(maybe some guns need more ammo), I see no problem in adding a new weapon.
exemple: 2x pistol for primary, and replace 2x pistol bonus:

why? simple, currently the 2x pistols look more like a SMG (only the weapon model could be changed), for more realism, add more ammo and reduce damage, but, damage per sec is the same as before.

and, if you can test this model, down here:

and place the files in the pistols folder (models\weapons\pistol), and find a 2xpistol bonus and have fun.
