remove conc rail from station buy menu...

Apr 28, 2018 Luxen link
The concussion rail gun in heavy weapons is in near-every station's purchase menu, yet requires a mission to unlock - but no mission is linked to unlocking it there. it has to be manufactured through a seperate mission tree. As such, many people ask about unlocking it, annoyingly so some times.

Can we remove this item from the purchase menu, or get a reason for it being there?

If it's not there, how would people know this specific weapon exists for manufacturing?

Make it available to buy for high price

+1. Things that can't be bought by anyone no matter what shouldn't be for sale.

"If it's not there, how would people know this specific weapon exists for manufacturing?"

From the manufacturing missions, or from seeing it drop when killing somebody who uses it, or from seeing a player who manufactured one try to sell it, or from the wiki, or from chatter on 100.

...or getting hit with it; it doesn't quite look or behave like any other weapon in VO.

It's a rare weapon and it doesn't get used often because it doesn't damage directly. Most players won't ever get hit by it in their entire VO lifetimes.

Thus, it needs to remain there so they know about it.

+1 it's a novelty weapon that has no practical use in the game. Letting it remain in the weapons purchase list is unnecessarily confusing.

FTFY. Don't assume that what's true for you is also true for everyone else.

Cluttering up the shop listings with items that are not sold is a bad solution to poor manufacturing visibility.

And reduce its reloading fee,10k per ammo for a Railgun?Even more expensive than Avalon!Additionally,improve the dmg of Concussion Railgun or get more ammo and less Reload fee so that it can be more useful.

Not really a good argument, given how easy it is to make money fast in VO as of this moment.

Pretty sure you need to complete a mission tree to even get the options to manu it, also i dont see the corvus widow maker in stations (dont n2 me) but people always knows about it, and yes i know the CWM is a hella lot better than the conc rails.
