Req pack - you choose your rewards

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

You open up a pack, and unlock something cool like a SPNKr and you get 3 and you play months later and never get another 1 of them but you get tons of mongooses you will never use. it’s annoying and you are required to what? sell them over n over until you get reqs you want?

How about this. we get a req card we can choose to buy with our points that its custom. but here is the catch, you can;t unlock anything, you only get 5 slots, and you can only get 1 of each and the things you can get are things you must already have unlocked. Would that be better? so we can start using more reqs that we would use rather than things we dont use and have to keep reselling that are rather useless most of the time like mongooses n personal warthogs that have no real offensive capability and you just have to sell them and gamble again for better luck? I see lots of post about this issue of not getting good reqs that they have unlocked but haven’t gotten it again in ages and maybe this can be a solution.

<mark>Do not bump threads.</mark>

I do believe this would really help and everyone would like that. been trying to get a beam rifle for ages now.

Id rather not have to deal with more people running around with “The Answer” mongooses are common so you get more of them, kinda defeats the purpose because no one would pick common Reqs theyd just grab the overpowered rare and ultra rare reqs

4

But the rare and ultra would cost so much it could still be rare.

Feeding people whatever weapon they want seems a bit over the top, maybe they could have packs specific for weapons, vehicles, armor, etc that actually cost REQ POINTS * cough * screw microtransaction packs *cough *and so if you want weapons you can buy it for a higher chance at that weapon you want.

6

How about just selling the cards you don’t want in order to stack up REQ currency to buy another Gold Pack? I just sold a whole bunch of stuff I didn’t want and I got about an accumulative of 12,000RP .

7

This would be cool but it would be abused in a ridiculous manner. Especially if you were able to pay actual money for it, which would truly ruin the experience. Someone would drop $50 on 10 ONI Tanks and 20 Phaetons, and soon every game you’d be playing against a full team of Nornfangs. No thanks. I’ll grind for my REQs

nope totally against it, sorry

Disagree - this just isn’t a good idea. there are already way too many ‘god weapons’ in warzone, your idea would create even more of them. It’s hard to get hte good stuff.

PS, once you’ve done all the perm unlocks, REQ packs are REALLY cheap. you can get a silver pack for 2K or a gold pack for 4K. That means you could buy a gold pack just about every other Warzone game, or a silver pack every game. That should give you plenty of toys to play with every game.

well the point is when you first start in halo 5 you would only have common stuff. as you move up you get better stuff.

than maybe custom pricing. the more expensive the more require points it adds up to. so say a common is 100 pts and legendary be like 1000. so that would be 5000 for legendary. but see you if you buy 2 you dont unlock anything so you could of got 2 unlocks but instead you got previous stuff instead. idk 343 would have to decide than on that which is more fitting.

i am pretty sure i said that. reselling items just to get back a small amount of req points to try again and get unlocking again is rather annoying because

make it req points only? that way the people buying their stuff have to go through buying all the bronze, silver, n gold pack with cash and than having to earn the special pack with actual points? seems fair

you would first have to earn them through bronze, silver, gold packs. you couldnt just choose any, it has to be only previously unlocked. also as i suggested to someone else that we base the level of the item to how much it will cost. so if they go all legendary it will cost more. you are just gambling away and stuff with things that are useless and dont want. at least this way you open a silver pack, hate everything you got, sell it, buy a special custom pack and that way you can buy a pack of reqs you know you will get something useful to use.

and the problem is is that the random number generator is bad. is just as bad as Destiny’s RNG. so if you want a needler rifle you have to 20 times before you get 1 because there are soooooo many weapons that you get gypped. i mean that video that makes fun of Destiny’s RNG is accurate to Warzone reqs. i havent gotten a beam rifle in ages. i can keep selling my SAWs that i keep gets 1 or 2 a pack but im just gonna keep getting saws. i would rather have something wear i can just buy what i need. its not like they can just say “buy a mantis or phaeton and be able to use it the second the match start” they still would have to get to the level to use it. and for all we know they can get base killed while walking out the base with a mantis and get hijacked in 1 second. i mean did you see that 1 post called “i hope that was your last tank card” where a guy camped middle base spawn and got on a tank and killed it the second it spawned. that stuff is running rampant in this game. even core bases have the problem . so its not like he instantly gets it. he still has to buy it, still has to earn the level to call it in and still has to hope some noob/scrub isnt just camped outside the base waiting for the free kill and he only gets 1 a pack.

BTW what do you mean gold only being 4k? you mean after you unlock everything that can be bought through req packs that they change the prices from 10k to 4k? i never heard of that.

I propose Resupply Packs. There’d be Vehicle Resupply, Power Weapon Resupply, and Power-up Resupply packs, and they’d each come in Silver (common-rare) and Gold (uncommon-Legendary) varieties. They’d give everything that Silver and Gold Packs already do, and cost the same 5000 or 10000 points but contents would be narrowed down to the category you want- the only catch being that they’d give no Certifications, and thus you still need to unlock with regular packs. That would allow people to have a greater chance to get more of items they want and have had at the cost of not being able to unlock any new things.

i likē this drop system

If you haven’t noticed when you get all of the permanents in a specific pack level you get points returned for each permanent that would have been in that pack. So for golds you get 3k per permanent which gives you a net loss of 4k.

that is an amazing idea because I keep opening gold packs hoping for fotus helmet and guess what I get… stupid mongooses and weapons I don’t need so I think it would be a good idea to select our own reqs

im lost here. the packs cost 10,000, 3000 req is left with 7k not 4k unless you are saying we get 2 of them.

thank you for your support and yes i have had enough terrible drops at this point.

Honestly, I’m kind of okay with the way things are in warzone. The better weapons and vehicles shouldn’t be readily available and more of a rare bonus. sell the extra items you don’t want and put them toward your next pack in hopes of getting what you need/want.

i think reqs are good the way they are

so you start out with 10,000 and you link nothing, you sell it all and get maybe enough for a silver, dont like those so you sell it and have to buy bronze. dont see the down side at all right? if i want a beam rifle or spnkr i should be able to buy directly. its way better. i dont want a legendary banshee i want a phateon. but i had to rely on RNG which RNG has never been good in any videogame. luck is not for everyone. id rather pay a bit more and get what i want than waste req points trying to get something i need that will help me n the team. some people are wise and dont ever gamble in there life because its simple, the you more often than not lose. i have a -Yoink- ton of SAWs that are same rares as a standard beam rifle and i would trade in all of them for 5 beams instead.

I agree, i’ve been trying to get the mark v alpha armor and ya’ know what I get? mongooses. just, mongooses and carbines…
