What the title said.

The issue here is that people don't like random depths. Why? Because they have a chance of getting either a Treasure Vault or a Graveyard. So why not let us be able to choose between Graveyards and Treasure Vaults? The idea would be: if you get the randomly generated level in between, you won't have a choice, but if you get a Graveyard/Treasure Vault you have the option of either continuing or taking the opposite path. Newbies would generally pick Treasure Vault and sacrifice a high payout for some free profit, while more experienced players would pick Graveyard for the heat and crowns.

The issue here (in this post) is wrong.

Actually, people do like the random depths. It adds some excitement and a sense of danger. You know you'll be rewarded well for the graveyards, but they're still scary. You know the treasure vaults don't pay out well, but are an easy relax.
The crap in between is just sayin' "got nothin' bro, regular level" which is usually good and bad.

If you could just choose, it'd kill...all of the fun and excitement behind it, not to mention that crowns/heat would be far too farmable then, just spamming the same level over and over on Strat6 or w/e.

Yeap

Teh randomness.

Because then pros could choose the higher payout graveyards which they know they can survive, while 'less skilled players' will choose the easy way, not knowing they're missing out, or those who take their chances with the graveyard wind up dead and forever don't choose it...

Ok...my senseless ranting aside...I mean with the current method, you don't have a choice. Do or don't. Curse your luck or thank your lucky stars.

Me when I'm in the Graveyard: SWEET. Graveyard=Higher payout!

Me when I'm in Treasure Vaults: YAY! /PM random friend: Look ma! I'm in TV! /then: Ya I know, I'll cry a little later.

...Ok nvm that, it's just one of the few luck elements SK gives it's players. It's fine how it is.

Graveyards are not as

Graveyards are not as dangerous as they used to be.

Treasure Vaults really need some adjusting because they don't offer anything special other than the occasional token.

treasure vaults don't payout

treasure vaults don't payout well specifically because they're guaranteed a high-ish payout (rather than mediocre/none) at no cost, no challenge and high speed, letting you just race through them and move to deeper levels. Their "crowns/heat per hour" rate is huge.
