Of note: these are guaranteed NEW weapons. So in other words, ones you don't already have. I dropped the 500 crypto on it and said gently caress it and bought another (you're limited to two total). I'm just letting them sit there until they release new weapons because why the gently caress not? They totally stack and are just hanging out there, which is pretty cool.

so if the only gun I don't have is the DBSR 50, I can pay $25 and get the DBSR 50?

edit: oh, I had like 900 keys - cashed them in, got the DBSR 50, saved the melee burn and my 10 rares had a bunch of poo poo I already had. Nice

Yeah. That's exactly how it works. Since I've already got all of the weapons, I'm pretty much guaranteed to get whatever they release next week or the week after.

I wouldn't even know where to start on that. It would take hours, probably, and I'm not overly interested.

That said, for specialist outfits I'm missing:

Ruin: Rabid boy

Outrider: Ensnared head, angel of death head, and the head and body of whatever is to the right of the angel of death costume.

Prophet: Art deco head, tribal tech body

Battery: Steam punk head, mma fighter body, pit crew body, and the head and body of whatever is the left most on the bottom row

Seraph: Geist body, sakura body, and head and body of whatever is to the right of goth

Nomad: Black metal head, arapaima body, mayan body

Reaper: Invader, maggot and series 4 bodies

Spectre: Sky, geist, cellmate, and joust bodies

Firebreak: Giggles head, night body, eviction body, and outbreak body

So...all in all, not missing THAT much from those. There's NO WAY I'm doing that for attachment variants and camos. gently caress that.

The biggest kick in the nuts of this game is that each weapon has separate camo. I'm fine with the unlocking camo all being the same, but the box camo should be one size fits all.

Oh you rolled the Haptic camo? Well you can put it on any gun. Oh wait, no you can't because there are like 30+ weapons in the game and you've only got it for the Pharo.

Hello I would like to enjoy some beers and play this game tonight is anyone going to be around?

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that I got challenged to a 1v1 quickscope match last night while finishing up locus + 5 attachments. Apparently I'm really good with snipers but never use them.

You did that a day early. Today's challenge is to get 100 kills with a weapon with 4 attachments.

And I'm totally ok with "spend $2, get a thing." It's the "spend $25 maybe get something." If I want to actually gamble I'll go do that since it appears the odds are about the same but I can win actual cash and possibly even a lot of it! Some enterprising nerd should bring a lawsuit/complaint about how it's a game of chance and therefore illegal almost everywhere, since it literally is.

I believe I am now no longer in the presence of nice people.


So I gotta either earn 500 crypto OR spend $25 on this shooter?

... well, I AM waiting on the Titanfall 2 Tech Demo to download so why the gently caress not.

Previous achievements: Spent ~$300 in Record Keeper so I know what this poo poo is.

EDIT: It's $40 for two Triple Plays. Other whales, just buy 5k and get your two weaps.

EDIT2: Well gently caress my rear end I forgot to see the finer print ONCE WITH COD POINTS AND ONCE WITH CRYPTO. NOW I GOTTA BURN THROUGH THESE POINTS LIKE THEY GOIN' OUTTA STYLE.

Do NOT buy 5,000 CoD points! You can only buy one Triple Play with CoD points. The other one has to be earned with keys.

This is pretty much why people want the whales: some don't really give a gently caress about what they throw money. Or they don't pay attention.

Basically, Activision wants to be scummy instead of be quality, even though they're less scummy if you pay attention to the fine print.

I went through and looked at everything except camos (no idea how to tell which I'm missing) and I'm missing 4 gun parts and 5 specialists dressups. :\

I broke down and got the triple threat. Got the Ajax and stun baton, plus Iron Jim in one of the 10 rare drops. Not bad, though I would've preferred one of the ARs.

Pretty sure there's people on reddit that have admitted to dumping thousands of dollars into the game.

Micro-transactions were one thing, but now its pay for a chance to get the item your after.

Are you using the share button in-game or recording from the saved games? If you just hit share and save video clip it should have both game and chat audio.

I used the second method but the default setting is to not include chat, and as this is my newer PlayStation I hadn't remembered to switch it. Ah well.
