RNG Lottery: the game (Now with 10x more rng!)

I actually agree with this.  If players could just buy whatever they wanted, everyone would be running around with TGI/Harriers or the MEA equivalent 2 days after release.  This type of system ensures variety.

I enjoyed ME3MP more and played more hours after I had a full manifest than before I had unlocked everything.

Yes, better than DAMP, but only slightly so. Say you just started playing DAMP, I'd say, 50-100 hours in you'll already have a CHANCE (no matter how small) to fully unlock an endgame weapon / Lvl 27 weapon if you're being carried in NM. Here it's simply not possible as you have to go through RNG 10 times before it's fully unlocked. Both systems suck and biower cant get anything right.

I am trying to think of a solution that encompasses both options, because for me the gameplay and combat itself is reason enough to play for.

What if unlocking cosmetics were the main draw? I'm thinking of things like guild wars 2 pvp where you don't have to grind to access any gameplay abilities. Or even in pve and wvw it is fairly easy to build out a character in close to maximum stats - rather then endgame carrot is all cosmetics, unlocking new skins and shiny looks for your character.

I'm curious would that be enough incentive? I would be happy if all characters were accessible from the start to build up and maximise, but weapons and mods were locked behind the store.

to discuss about the game?

The game which you hate and dont even play according to your posts. Seems rational.

Such a shame aswell. You were a good resource in daimp. Sad to see you behaving this way.

In most cases you'd be better off slapping the Vanquisher on every kit and never use a different weapon. Don't be such a scrub, wavebend.

thats besides the point

No, it's not. You don't always need rank X weapons or kits with four maxed out skills to do well. Case in point, a Vanquisher I is already way more powerful than most other weapons.

I mean, I can understand legitimate complaints like the inability to reload-cancel, bugged hitboxes or the terrible weapon balance and underpowered URs. But the I-X ranking and rng unlock system is vastly superior to the one in DAMP.

Reload-Canceling doesn't have a "look", is anything but retarded and easily doubled your dps if done perfectly. Have you ever really played ME3MP? If not, there's even less reason for me to understand why you insist on comparing ME:AMP to DAIMP...

Because those who fail to learn from mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them. Most of the issues with MEAMP were both foreseeable and avoidable.
