So there's a lot of ranting threads about the cost, etc, for Expansion packs. I'm here to rant about the weapons.

So after seeing weapon demos for both the hammer and the shadow bomb, I am slightly miffed at how overpowered they are; The hammer does massive elemental damage, and hits fast. The bomb, when spammed, will break lockdown (1st, you can't walk through it like with vaporizers and not get hurt, if you have resistance, 2nd, it creates a huge roadblock, 3rd, there's barely any shadow defence used, excluding Snarby, in LD, so it will be very deadly, 4th; it's very fast, so dodging it (once caught) will be near impossible)

Basically, I'm saying P2P will have a HUUGE advantage over F2P (Not to mention the mask of seerus is also really OP, with Gun CTR and Damage bonus)
So AT LEAST, please make it obtainable through CE, like Shadow Lairs (via the shadow key) so F2P at has no reason to rant (like this -_-)

Lockdown is broken beyond

Lockdown is broken beyond hope anyway, let me have some fun in clockworks.
Also, the mask is unboundable.

When you have to pay to get

When you have to pay to get those awesome weapons, P2P will have a nice advantage, but I find hammer people in Lockdown easy to kill.
I do agree that making it obtainable through CE should be implemented. This expansion is one of the only things in the game that can be purchased with money.

I just want to play this game without getting bored (I already am, made everything I need, killed every boss). But when I have to pay to play a level, meh.

Precisely

One cannot bring balance into their argument if none so exists. Lockdown is already broken, like Paweu said. It doesn't matter really. OOO shouldn't cater to F2P, but to P2P. But they must not abuse their stand.

See my post in the video thread.

This is dumb as hell.
