Why more Weapons is the Wrong Idea.

[Baneblade]

Id wager few PS2 players have spent as much SC in PS2 as I have. Yet I'd give up all my unlocks to have a more indepth weapon system.

That said, each weapon could simply be refunded, to free up that SC to be used in the new system.

I think one of the best aspects of Blacklight is the treatment of doors and the hacking system they employ on them and control points.

I'm saying to take it a step further and add more depth and effect to weapon customization. Make it so you can fundamentally change a weapon with many weapons to start from scratch with.

A problem with that is that enabling that level of customization leads to lots of redundancies in performance/role. Which is not bad per se, but then discourages spending on multiple platforms.
