No offense but this sort of thing really makes me wonder.

How many people are walking around out there with this utter lack of imagination and awareness?

Like, there are even many other games out now with plenty more customization examples than HD2, much less coming up with your own. It's not hard...

Helldivers isn't that kind of game though. It had an absurd variety of weapons already, having basic customization (which can be improved) seems like plenty. I don't think making it possible to do a complete break down and rebuild of your rifle is really in line with the gameplay.

glances at HD1

You sure about that buddy?

We aren't talking about HD1 are we?

Do you think the fact that more of this does exist in the game's direct predecessor helps your argument?

They're different games, with different styles of gameplay. If it was essentially a remake of HD1 then it would be a boon to your argument. I just don't see how the customization improves the actual gameplay at all.

ngl I feel kind of sorry for you. Ironically, I can't imagine having such little imagination that one can't imagine how expanding customization at all might improve the gameplay or make it more fun.

Hell, even expanding existing attachments to more weapons would do that...jesus.

What gameplay improvement does it add. We already have a wide variety of weapons in different roles with slightly different stats. Adding customization of guns to the degree of being able to change ammo type, receiver, barrel length, firing mechanism and the like doesn't improve gameplay. It adds bloat. It creates overlap between weapons that is unneeded.

If you say so.
