Planetside had it, battlefield has it, CoD has it.

with rebuying bullshit there would be a forever grind, you'd never be able to reach the point where you can fully enjoy the game without really worry about "bullshit"

we are talking a BIG difference between RPG players and shooter players.

Edit: I feel the need to explain this better. MMORPGs are boring as shit. there-for a forever grind is needed to keep the game going and exciting. FPS games are backwards to this. Shooters are exciting to play and as such shooter players want to get the grind out of the way as soon as they can so they never have to deal with the bullshit again, understand?
Thats a mighty big brush you're painting with. I would be ecstatic if tomorrow they announced that battle ranks and cert training times are going away, and I quite like the idea that you'll have to manage your resources, as well as the fact that it gives something to fight over specific areas of land for.

Btw, counterstrike has buying stuff. I've heard thats fairly popular.
