Possible game additions, each of these additions should be considered as a stand alone option
(I AM NOT SUGGESTING ALL SHOULD BE IMPLEMNTED TOGETHER) 1. Reincrantions upon reaching BR20 players could become eligable for reincarnation reincarnation invovles restting a charcater back to BR1 except the charcater will have a few bonus cert points (e.g. 4+ cert points) mabe even an extra implant the character then can level up normally back to BR20 (to stop people becomming to powerful too quick reincarnated charatcers recive only 1/2 the normal exp) an additional option is to allow multiple reincarantions up to a max e.g. 3 (extra 12 points max) (mabe extra 2 implants) and after each reincarnation xp is gained at 1/2 the rate of the last e.g. no reinc 23cert poitns, 3 implants (normal) 1 reinc 1/2 27cert points 4 implants 2 reinc 1/4 31cert points 4 implants 3 reinc 1/8 35cert points 5 implants Just to give thoes BR20 CR5 somehting else to do Ok that one was just to get warmed up Optinal Addtion 2. Highly specialsed BR20 Certifications Characters that reach BR20 get new certifications options only avaiable to people who reach BR20. These certification are very expensive costing 15-20 points each (basically taking up all available cert points with a few left over ) These new certs would be for 'overpowered' battle systems the trade off being that they have become highly specialsed and havent enough cert points for much else. (Possible new battle systems for use in this instance) Infilration suit with 1 pistol slot and one large weapon slot thus this infil suit can equip any weapon (same backpack space) 18 cert points Reinforced exo suit. same as current with fotospeed of std armour. constant regen 1HP per second, double the armour, addtional pack space. 15 certs Displacer suit. same as aglie suit , charcters appears 2m from actual position (however weapon fire comes from true position) 15 cert points Heavy battle tank carries 6 (2 main turret cannons forward and aft 330 deg pivot) large central turret with rapid fire chain gun, smaller AA guided rocket turret on top of chain gun turret.) 17 cert points NOTE THESE ARE JUST EXAMPLES ! if they sound overpowered to you thats the idea, by picking one of these a charcter will only have enough certs poitns for mabe 1-2 other certifications. Additional Option 3 Highly specialsed CR5 Certifications same prinicpal as the BR20 certs, except these cert are designed for use as a battle commander. e.g. Avd Galaxy, similar to reg galaxy, but has more space, 3x the health and armour, and 2 autotracking turrets that fire AA and AG guided rockets (so even when empty with only pilot galaxy can defend itself), galaxy also has a massive radar view that increase with altitude but loses definition of target (e.g at max range tanks and player look the same) 16certs Tactial Mobile Unit. ONe man unit that cloaks like AMS when deployed. when inside the unit the group commander gets several mini vid screens come up of first person views of squad mates. as well as locations of the map a relative to enemy positions thus highly effective for organisining defense and attacks *additional addon is if players uses uplink device then he can acess the TMB when outside the unit at will. 16certs Again these are just highly overpowered examples. Now what these would do to improve the game. Option 1: far fewer people would sit at BR20 when they could reincnate and get some extra cert points and implanets, but would take much longer to level back to BR20 ech time lowering the number of players at the top which has to be a good thing. As far as the individual palyer goes it will add at least an extra year or mroe to play time as it will take the long leveling hard just to get all 3 reincarnations Option 2: if you make really useful overpowered equipment and vehicles then people will want to use them. if you amke them cost alot then u make people become extreme specilists. Thus more empahaiss is put back on team play as an uber tank with 6 positions needs 5 other people to operate. or specialised armours will be good in certain instances but require group help to accomplish anything major like base capture. Option 3: at CR5 dosent mean much, except u get to use a few fucntions not avaible to anyone else. If this method was implemented then a CR5 could actually do his job really well. The CR5 would sacrific his own battle strength to greatly improve that of his team mates, becoming a true battle commander and not just a dude who starts alot of squads. Anyways they's just a few ideas on how I think PS could be altered to cure the BR20 CR5 cap , while keeping it interesting for the high levles and not disadvanaging the low levers. Also since you need to achive BR20 or CR5 to use these options the use of special units and equip will still be very limited |

Good ideas(but like you said to overpowered to ever be used) I think it would just be easier to increase the BR cap to about 25 or 30. But instead of getting more certs players would get slots on there armor for more armor or maybe more space in there invertory, or maybe something like having a REK built into someones armror or a pistol. Also for BR20-BR25 for each level your avatar should change to show that your experinced.

Have players start at BR1 with 5 certs. Make Agile Armor be a specific cert that must be bought, and costs 2 certs. When the patch is released, every gets 2 additional cert points as well as the Agile Armor cert which they can later unlearn. Raise the limit to BR25. So your top-level characters get 7 more points to play with which enough to add a vehicle and/or another weapon cert.

I just think if you design the game so that people have to become highly specialised to be effective in battle then your going to encourage team play becuase highly specialised players will need specfialsed team mates to make up for areas they lack in.
Just for a moment consider what it would be like if PS had no infantry weapons and every player used vehicles. thoes heavy battle tanks would need to be supported by anti air vehicles. fast vehicles would need air cover to coordinate strikes against heavier targets. The problem is atm that infantry units are exteremly versatile. at BR20 an infantry unit can be equpied to deal with any possible threat. Vehicles and MAXes on the other hand always have weaknesses and cannot be configuered to make up for thoes short commings, instead thy need support untis to make it up for them. Perhaps they should make the infantry weapon certs even more expensive so that even a BR20 infantry with inf only cert (no veh) cannot dael with any situation. versatile infantry = more solo players vehicles and maxes = more team play |

You want to test it out, have an advanced medic duel with a reaver, in his infantry loadout, see who wins. Infantry trade power for versatility, but are forced to rely on people near them for everything from fire support to health/armor to infield resupply (read: backpacks), soloists crave power and hate relying on people near them for help. Why would a Soloist pick up all the certs neccesary for basic survival in ground combat (med assault, rexo, av/spec assault) for the pleasure of being complely at the mercy of almost every single player in the game, when he could pick up reaver/engy and kill almost everything in sight.
