One other thing
By:Grizzlei
Date: 6/17/15 1:13 am
In Response To: Re: On H5 Req Packs... (Grizzlei)

: I really don't have any problems with being able to purchase REQs with real
: American Human monies. I just know I'll make any player who buys them
: waste every dollar they've earned while I beat them senselessly out of
: their fancy schmancy Mantis. Besides it's not like a good eye and trigger
: finger with standard weapons can't be natural force multipliers.

What is it that sets apart the consumers versus the earners?

Buying these REQ thingies doesn't make you any better or worse than you were when you had to earn these items through actual gameplay. People are terrible enough with power weapons or any vehicle because literally everyone flashes their energy sword around and none of you can drive a Warthog correctly. An enemy player with a powerful item is a priority target. Buying REQs won't get your foe out of a sticky situation any better than someone who earned their REQ thingies.

A really good player shouldn't need to use the REQ points they've earned or purchase REQ points. If they've developed their assault rifle, magnum, frag, melee, boarding, assassination, and ground pound skills to a master level, then being good at the basics is a whole lot more useful than being shitty with advanced items.

Someone buying their REQs is probably the kind of person who just doesn't care to better their playstyle. They don't want to put the time into developing on a skill and knowing how to achieve it repeatedly. Deal with it. That's their problem and that's their money to spend. If you're not okay with that, instead of worrying about how they enjoy their game, how about you make damn sure that the enemy team's experience is always a living fucking hell with your basic ass kit.
