    We all have faced the duplicate evolution problem. You get to a level, then: No dupes!!!

    I suugest tournaments. No boosting, nothing. A test of mastery against 49 people at the same level of weapons as you. The players have to do the highest amount of damage with said weapon to win. Also, like guildwork, damage is only contributed by matches you win.

    Nobody boosts, nobody can pay through it. Winner gets three dupes of the weapon, 2nd prize gets two, 3rd-10th prize get one. Other forty get gold, depending on devs as to the amount. Every season, you get to choose the weapon you wish to compete with. Season duration can be decided by the dev team. You can enter this tournament at any time during the season...

    It's a test of mastery for the truly deservant. Community, I know we've all complained about this a lot of times. What do you guys think?

    3 dupes is a bit much. If you only win 7 item pieces for having the highest infamy in the world they’re not gonna hand out full weapons.

    It's a great idea!
    Pros:
    • You get to compete with the same weapon.
    • more rewards
    • help with evolution
    Cons:
    • The players have to be filtered in such a way that they have same level of weapons, ie You can't have an Ace League Player with lvl 40 sniper battle with warrior league player with level 10 uncommon Sniper.
    • Due to the above-mentioned point, fewer numbers of players can really "fit" into a specific round for that weapon.
    Suggestions:
    Same Idea, with an introduction of a different game mode, where the players can compete with a pre-decided level of that weapon among a specific rarity!
    Instead of judging by highest damage all 50 can be placed into qualifiers and eventually we get our best players.

    That's all from my side!

    Ps: The @ mention didn't give me any alert! :p Nevermind!

    Basically, it should remove the RNG element completely. So, let's mod it like this: Top 10 players get ONE dupe of the weapon. The rest get item pieces depending on the level of the tournament. Also, this will be weapons-only. You won't get dupes unless it fires something. Fixer greens, yes. Shields and turbo, overboost, nitro, no.
    Also, in detail, it's like this. You'll only be able to compete with max level weps. Like, lv10, lv20, and so forth upto lv40. Lv50 weps cannot be used. Also, the season will last for two weeks. Basically, bro, items with the same rarities.

    Ya!
    There are a lot of games with friendly battles, and they have pretty simple rules, they have cap level, all players are given same level of weapons and they battle!

    One more question. Would you get to take your full load out or just the one weapon?

    Maybe instead of of some sort of seasonal weapon damage climb, let’s look at something more like a battle royal? Every season you get thrown into a queue with a certain amount of people. Maybe 25 each queue. Large battle field. Main screen you choose a ship ( or maybe they are all the same ship ) let’s say around the mk6 level. One of those. Then you scroll through all the weapons and other attachments and choose what ones you want. All are max lvl and are rare and you can choose between max lvl perks. You then have to battle all of the other players. Everyone will get prizes based on the damage they produce. First prize will gain a certain amount of points, second will gain less, so on and so on. Based on these points you can “buy” dupes. Higher rarity weapons are more expensive. ( the dupes won’t be that cheap either, because this eliminates RNG ) The points are stored somewhere for use later if you don’t want to use them atm. Let me know what you all think.

    I think ‘damage’ would just favour the most active player.

    I think the competition should be accuracy based. For example, the winner is the person who gets the longest unbroken streak without a miss (with a big bonus for long shots).

    That would also remove the need to have weapons compete at the same level.

    But then some weps don't fire accurately at all...

    That’s not a problem though, because they will always be competing against the same type of weapon. :)

    The only exception being mines... but maybe we can live without duplicate mines :rolleyes:

    Then it would actually be an indirect mine nerf xD. Also, mines and damage dont exactly mix lol. And weps like carro are too underplayed for tournaments
