Standardize Weaponry

[Daedric]

For those of who coming in with one liners, do keep your comments out. This is a discussion.

If you think this makes the game boring, explain why you think so. If you think this kills diversity, explain why.

@ Twisp

Do read before you comment. I've said I'm not sure if codes should be standardized or left alone. One way kills them, the other makes them even more valuable.

I really would like to hear your explanations on how it makes the game more boring and how it kills diversity. This in fact adds more options for every faction, thus it increases diversity. Which is contrary to what many of you have said.

As for it not making sense, do tell exactly how people wouldn't acquire their enemies weapons and use them to improve their own? We do that know in the real work, we steal technology from other nations, or purchase it and improve upon our own.

I'm not seeking to remove the bonus/less damage that weaponry does depending on the shield it is being used against, that is to be left alone as it adds flavor and some tactical thinking.

I'll ask again, if you aren't going to explain your thoughts don't post. If you think it will be boring, explain why. There are other Freelancer mods that use this type of set up that are more successful and have more intense PvP furballs than Disco has. This wasn't my idea, it was made by the person in charge of balancing, by a developer. It could make balancing easier, could make rules regarding technology relaxed, remove a ton of the SRP requests regarding weapons. All of which benefit the community in the end in some way.

Am I saying it is the right thing to do? No. I'm not sure myself, hence the request to discuss it.
