These will never happen, Sorry.
Also, why plasma?
1: The game is based on a more Grimy Scifi aspect drawing from such things as Alien for insperation.
2: The community has already expresed there dislike of Energy based weapons. If you need proff search for the taser( Sad but true, I was Pro Taser).
3: The original game was devleoped using Ballistic style weapons, with the only exception being the siege cannons(sonic weaponary) and to remove the tried and tested weapons for a Plasma name sake wouldn't be very popular IMO.
4: I believe also the DEV team have expressed there not looking to follow the Energy weapon route.
There maybe other reasons but these few just come to mind. Hope that's helpful.

QFT
I for one support the idea of new technologies and think it can fit fine into a gritty sci-fi setting. All it takes is a believable appraoch to implementing such things and with a bit of creative thinking I believe it's more than plausible to have more advanced weapons fit into the game.
I mean there's the technology to teleport living organisms in the game already which is no small advancement so really why are they still stuck using crude ballistic weapons in contrast to such a technological advancement ??? Even today's weaponry is more advanced than the things we've seen from NS1. I don't want to offend the designers, that's not my intentions it's just that it feels like there is so much room for them to flex their creative muscle whilst still maintaining that certain feel.
:SIGH:
