Thank god. Not sure why they missed this from the start.

Otherwise, people may buy weapons, sight unseen only to be disappointed and be hesitant about making future purchases. Not sure if they thought of the psychological aspect of this at all.

I'm really glad they're adding this, but they should only let you trial it for about an hour or so. That way you're not getting a weapon for free for an entire day or something. Plus after an hour, I'm sure you're able to find out if you like it or not.

This is great. Might be even better than the VR room for weapons since you could earn a fair amount of XP while trying it out. Don't get me wrong cuz I still really want the VR rooms back, this is still a really good step in the right direction.

This is one of the best community suggestion to be added to the game. Honestly, this beta has been everything I had hoped it would be when I started waiting for it and talking about "Planetside Next" a year and half ago.

Now... SOE just needs to get on with making SWG 2, before I am too old to get any time with it!

Yes exactly this, although I feel that I should clarify that it must be based on the game before they turned it on its head and changed it from one of the best games to ever grace my desktop to well just.....meehh

Or maybe not!

The reason peeps have been excited about this topic is how BAD most of the "sidegrade" weapons are and how cheesed off they'd be if they paid RL money or lots of certs for something that basically doesn't work.

The Walker and Lasher spring to mind, but there have been many examples during beta.
