weapons Weapon... customization?! - Page 2

i reckon there should be the option to create but each piece costs money

so barrel could cost $34769 etc depending on how good it is

Yeah, I'm a 'no weapon customization' guy myself. It really does suck though, to see a perfectly good gun marred by one stat that ruins the effect of the rest. IE: An powerful Anarchy with low fire rate.

Yeah I don't want customizing at all-I'd rather find rarities. Wouldn't it suck to waste your Eridium, cash or whatever else in upgrading just to find something better later on? If this game has a playthrough 2.5, I'd probably wait until I got the max level rarities before even thinking of touching them (unless some boss is really giving me a hard time).

However, it'd be cool to see a Parasite Eve style tool sytem where you could move something good from one gun to another (and lose the original of course). Or perhaps a FF7 Materia system for equipping elementals? I also like the part-huting idea and am reminded of the Cronosceptor peices from Turok: Dinosaur Hunter.

Idk... Having a certain customization would be nice... Like adding a small percentage of damage or accuracy, or adding elemental damage to a certain degree, or zeroing in the mag size. Boosting a 2 shot revolver to a 3 shot could be quite significant for instance. Or the opposite taking a 6 shot down to a 5 or whatever and increasing the accuracy because of it. The balancing issue in all these is that they are rare and expensive too make sure you don't just go around customizing everything. Uniques and Pearlescent weapons are off limits... stuff like that. I could definitely get used to something like that cause in the end the impact on the weapon will be small.

I could appreciate cosmetic customisation, (colours, patterns, that kind of thing), just to make that awesome gun you love really your own. As for performance customising....I'm not really into that idea. I loved the whole, 'what you find is what you roll with', attitude in Blands.

That said, new ideas are what keep games fresh and exciting (hopefully), so I'll reserve judgement until I've actually tried it ingame for myself. If I don't like it I'll just ignore it and hope it doesn't have a negative impact on my effectiveness ingame. I'm pretty certain I'll love the game whatever.

I would honestly love to change the color of my guns. I always disliked using bright yellow guns.

Maybe scopes as well, but that's pushing it.

If you could farm the pointless Whites and smelt them into a base material for forging then it wold give me a reason to pick them up.
