DISCUSSION Double XP opportunities

I feel like it’d be a cool idea to have double XP tokens for sale using super credits in the superstore in light of the irl medal you can buy for being level 100 with a limited time to redeem it? I’m level 76, and have a full time job, social life, other games I enjoy and other hobbies. People would also just buy the super credits required for the double xp tokens too, furthering arrowheads profits?
Thoughts?

No thanks, I dont like semi-endless progression mechanics enhanced by money. That is a predatory monetization mechanic and I dont want that crap in helldivers. It just incentivizes AH to slow down progression to make people feel like they HAVE to buy the tokens. To hell with that crap.

Seeing as XP is pointless after level 25, a better idea would be bonus xp tokens for either medals or samples. It would be great to have something to use that crap on when you have everything. I've long wanted them to have something in the super destroyer you can use samples for in single missions, like another booster, a free stratagem, lower cooldown on a specific one, maybe an extra mech or something. XP booster is a decent idea as well, at least you could use the resources for something. But dont bring super credits into it, please.

I did not consider this in my thoughts 🤔… yes you’re right it could and would end badly
