So the Req’s are split into common, ultra rare etc. Do you think that if you gain let’s say an uncommon armour set that you should be able to choose what you want from the uncommon range, rather than being given one?
That would be ideal but doesn’t work from business standpoint. Most people only have a few things they really want, for instance I only really wanted the locus edge helmet. I lucked out and managed to get it in the first and only arena customization pack I saved up for. The idea is that people will pay (because there are plenty of people willing) to unlock things until they get what they want. If you give them the ability to choose what they want then they won’t buy packs anymore. I personally don’t like it, but it helps them make money.
It wouldnt really work as a REQ system :S
I kinda like it the way it is, it keeps me determined to get what I want.
