unlocking idea

Post » Wed Sep 01, 2010 11:26 am

i reckon when they bring new dlc stuff out that instead of unlocking stuff with the 20 lvls they should do it across the 200 lvls of ur 10 characters.
eg unlock item at lvl 30 = lvl 10 on ur second character.

what do you think?

Cool idea, but I don't like the thought of it being an FPS for over-achievers... Kind of like no-lifing to get prestige'd in Black Ops...
Good idea, but I'd rather have the current version in which you can enjoy customization without having to put hours and days into the game :P

Not saying I wouldn't appreciate later ON when the games gets familiar and you want stuff to do... :P

So yeah, nice idea to think about :3

Unlocks are dumb to begin with. They need to just let everyone have access to everything from the get go.. BRINK does a decent job at unlocks with the challenges. Much much better than level/rank unlocks.

It's stupid that in most games I have to wait a long time just to use my favorite gun and are forced to use some POS gun until I reach that point. Down with unlocks!!!

So you want unlocks that require a "combined level" or (insert number here) before you get them?

Sounds like a neat way to shut the "must have COD Prestige" voices up.

I'm up for that.

Can't argue with you...
Hopefully the gap of same-old, same-old will be filled with DLC :\

Oh, for NME (good point you make there), I have to agree for things like weapons, but with the way Brink's abilities are set up, the majority of important unlocks come early. And I like the idea of this for appearance customisations in DLC.

As NME already stated it could create potential balance issues is anything other than cosmetic changes were locked in this manner. Remember heart rate monitors in MW2? They had no counter until you hit level ~30.
