    I came up with these changes initially to help War generate more income for Brawl, but it can also be made to make War slightly less pay2win regarding things such as the ray-gun.

    1. All guns can now be bought at the store. They'd vary in price, so a gun you can unlock at level 3 wouldn't be as much as a gun you need to be level 50 to unlock. This'd mean you could donate to get a good gun early, giving new players a bigger incentive to donate to get better guns.
    2. Donator guns (minigun, rocketlauncher/LAW, flamethrower, ray-gun and crossbow) could be purchased with in-game currency, too. The level required would be very high (at least over 70, possibly even over 100), and would cost a lot of credits.

    Exactly - the donator guns should mostly be accessible by donating but should also be accessible to a long-term regular who can't/won't donate but still wants to play with the guns.

    I've been playing like few hours a day since September (no life) and I recently just level 100. So making those guns for like 100+ wouldn't really matter, because most of the 100+ people already have those donator guns..

    Yeah, the donator guns are really powerful and should only be given to people who donate for them, or play a lot.

    If I was a non-donator and did play enough to get to level 100+, it'd be nice to get it. It could always be level 70, for example.

    Just wait for the CoD server. Yes, I think the server should be less p2w, but I doubt they are going to change anything at this point.

    If MC-War goes long enough with no updates, there will be no players playing wanting the CoD server. It wouldn't take that long to implement something like this.

    Updates on Mc-War have come to a stop because of the #soonerthanever CoD server, with new guns and gamemodes.
    It won't be an update. War 2.0 will be a totally new server with its own mechanics and system. The current version of Mc-War will be preserved in the form of a "Legacy" server. All of your stats on this server will stay the same, but everyone will likely start anew on 2.0. For information, please view the thread 'The Future of Brawl.' I am typing on an iPad atm so I cannot post a link to the thread because of my lack for better detail and thoroughness.
    And as for your 1st idea @GeothermalSucks, I'd much rather let newbies level up naturally without using ulterior motives for their personal gain. I definitely do not want to see level 9s with kdrs greater than 4. I feel like those people are mocking me for my 2.74 kdr. %*^# me.

    If this happened, many players would want refunds for their donation guns. In the end just wait for 2.0, a whole new server would mean we can do this.

    1. Doesn't that make it even more pay to win?
    2. I'm not sure if I'd like to see that. Like BD said, most high level players already have a certain amount of donor guns. This may leed to a few people keeping their money and playing to reach that level, but I think that in the end the most people will still donate for it. And I'd like to keep those guns donor guns. Just my opinion.

    If you already got the Skullcrusher and Isolator, the donator weapons are obsolete.

    Sorry, didn't even read your statement. Just answeribg already because your title is wrong. War is not pay2win.

    I'm going to have to side with those who think mc-war is fine as is. Primarily.
    The only thing I think should be changed is the perks, which feel like something that would be purchased with in game currency rather than donating. But otherwise, the donator weapons are so situational that you aren't really missing out as long as your good with a standard weapon. Just figure the game out to the point that you become difficult to kill rather than fodder. Thats how I did it before I got the donator weaponry. (it wasn't as worth it as some non donors think, sorry)
