has anyone ever received a 'free' weapon or armor from a mission or prize code, but because the item isn't upgraded, you have to spend a lot of credits to use it? well, I suggest that whenever a player earns a free weapon, the weapon should be already fully upgraded to the player's current level, so that the player won't have to spend a lot of credits to upgrade the item, but instead spend only 100 credits to retrain it

Not supported, since people will sell the "free" item for over 10k etc, devaluating the item, plus flash limitations.

 ^Inventory space problems.

Since ED is supposed to be heavily focused on a competitive PvP environment why is there so much encouragement of farming NPCs mindlessly for credits to do stuff like unlock ranks, retrain, upgrade weapons? It seems very counterintuitive to me.

It is. The game does get flooded weekly with tons of new items but they are very
expensive when being fully upgraded (cores !) so that only a few could buy them.
We even cant see how they would look on us so we have to buy the cat in the sack
and waste our money.

Free weapons and armors definetly are not free as they have to get upgraded and
stocked with cores. They are a seducement for spending money. But the devs dont
termed them to be free. This is the definition of the thread starter. The rewards are
only the textures. Making the items competitive does cost money.

 I understand the point being made here, the issue is that the whole 'free item' works exactly as it says, it's a free item. This means you get that item for free, not exactly the upgrades, since they are separate. If all items came completely upgraded, it means that if you build up to a high level, doing quests periodically specifically to get new 'fully upgraded items' to your level, then you could in theory go through most the levels simply retraining and not having to really spend on anything else that was truly needed. This kind of destroys the games economy, and makes farming pretty pointless. Yes it could be argued that items are aesthetic now for the most part, however upgrades gives you a reason to farm and earn things - if they're given on a plate in some form, it defeats their purpose to an extent.

That's just my opinion on it though!

 ED has been geared towards a more cosmetic game yet still is supposed to be a competitive PvP-based MMO.

I think that credits should only be spent as the base cost for weapons, and for class changes, completing quests, hairstyles/color changes, etc... Not to upgrade weapons. The idea of upgrading weapons leaves most notably new players quite often in a pit where they messed up and didn't manage their money right and eventually got behind others that are the same level, only to spiral into an endless pit of mindlessly farming NPCs or consistently losing to those that are the same level or sometimes even lower. Yes, new equipment is entirely for the appearance now but I think that a varying base price + a massive upgrade price should not be happening. The base price is actually already very high on many items IMO.

Not supported, second reason is, the "free" weapons from the codes given have a sell back of 200 creds, if they would come fully upgraded, ppl would be multi millionaire by now

I support one thing .
quote:

the weapon should be already fully upgraded to the player's current level
but not any weapon . it should be the main weapon which you get after changing your class .

Supported, but the sell back price shouldn't be changed or be set to 0.

maby make the weapon you get sell for 100 or 0 so people wont turn into cash gods (by that even when it's upgraded already it sells for 100 or 0) Is what I mean
