I think the FCS Lock Speed is supposed to affect all the lock speeds of all direct-firing weapons including back mounts. For hand weapons, the arm's Maneuverability stat is supposed to affect the lock-on speed of arm mounted weapons.
Take note that the accuracy stat of arms does affect the spread of weapons in conjunction with the weapon's accuracy stat as well. There is a noticeable difference in shot grouping sizes if you test an SR with the least accurate arms against the more accurate arms (AGYROS and one of the BFF arms IIRC, I could be wrong with the former though) this may have significant effects especially when fighting at long range. Also important to note is the Melee Ability of the weapon, which is to say the "lock-box" size of the weapon. The higher the value, the larger the lock area.
If you want to go cheap on the game, use reg 1.2. That reg gives almost unlimited energy and more powerful missiles compared to reg 1.0. Blades are also ruthless in 1.2 with their lunges reaching long distances. Also, the initial corporate sponsor doesn't have much impact on the single player game except for your starting AC. That's it AFAIK.
Nix, I'm still playing LR
Well, not as much as Fallout 3, but I tinkered with it a few days ago, and I just might do it again Its just really hard to make a new totally new design given we've explored so much about the game already.
