DUST isn't P2W as it's still open beta. Why is that relevant? There are plans to make everything available to buy with both isk and AUR. Well. It'll be a player-driven market, so that people can buy AUR items with AUR and sell them on to other players for isk. |

Frankly, I stay away from grenades. Apart from AV grenades. I love AV grenades. |

To be fair, the easiest thing to implement is a new item, be it weapon or module. New textures and models don't have to be made, and they can be churned out like they're on a conveyor belt.
Whereas game mechanics and whatnot are fairly difficult to get right. As well as building new maps, new dropsuits, vehicles, etc. |

Lance, they're entirely new types of weapons. New weapons, i.e. the Exile AR, uses the same models and mechanics as any other AR. The model is there, they just need to make a new texture, which takes nowhere near as long as building the mechanics of a new weapon from scratch.
Then they can at least get some testing done in-house on balance, then send it to us for further testing. It takes time. |

Deluxe - nope. The thing about DUST is that sure, you can pay to get new items... But when you die with that item, you lose it forever. So you have to keep paying. In the end, it's much easier, and cheaper, to skill up to a GEK instead of staying with the killswitch GEK AR. I'd save the AUR for boosters alone. Or BPO's. Which most people seem to be doing. |

General, I've noticed a little bit of agitation from you regarding CCP.
I would make a long post with some counter-arguments, but I've just had a big dinner, so I'm feeling quite lazy.
So I'll just say this. There are no "supremacy" goods on the market. Yes, they're better than that tier, but there are better weapons than THAT weapon out there. It's not like having a weapon which does 10% more damage than every other weapon of that type, or cost 20% less fitting, etc. The Duvolle has the same stats as the AUR proto AR. |

I think he's asking for anti-infantry prox mines.
That's the one. |
