Got two new ideas.
Weapons in the world or found as loot should have a chance to have random augmentations. And more of them should have attachments of a random level preinstalled.
By that you could have a chance to get really good weapons or at least better alternatives earlier in the game.
It would also give us more descitions… Whether to keep the newly found gun that is 1c lower than the current but has an interesting augmentation installed or to recycle it as usual.
You would compare more of the stuff you find to get better equipment.
And even for experienced players it could give a new point of view on some weapons and augmentations or their combinations.
Imagine finding a 4c AG4 with an augmentation that you wasn’t able to unlock yet. Will you still just recycle it or will you use it?
The second idea would add to that, but can stand alone, too. I got it because of todays question (on X) for ideas of new augmentations.
What about an augmentation which enables a gun to be able to add any attachment?
Scopes on handguns, extended mags on shotguns, silencers on a PVG and more…
Of course this augmentation should just have a single tier and should be expensive.
This could create some really unique guns…
And back to the first idea: … Which you could even find just lying around or as loot.
So look twice if you got just another purple AG4 from a harvester. It could be worth.
