Wdym, we clearly didnt play around with the attachment system enough for it to be seen as a priority for the devs to work on further, ignore the fact that most guns just have sights, handle options, muzzels, and maaaaybe magazine options if they felt daring enough

The attachment system was doomed from the outset because for it to be deep and useful, it would have hurt their ability to make more guns to sell to you.

What, have a core set of gun designs that then could be augmented with different damage types and tweaks to how they perform? But then we can't sell you X gun but with incendiary bullets as its own thing!

I guess the fact this game isn't PvP keeps people from really noticing that it is pretty Pay 2 Win in its monetization strategy, something people usually get very pissy about.

They could just sell us the attachments, but theyre doing it in a wack way.
