What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
[This suggestion would add a new minigame system for players to take part in, and could be expanded on at anytime.

As most of us know, MC&D has had MANY suggestions and most of them have been denied for one reason or another, mostly being that the class is simply a gun seller, and people who have the class tend to just self-supply, this is because all it is, is pressing F4, going to entities and clicking what you want. If you have the job, why would you 500$ or more to get it from someone else? You wouldn't, and people don't. So, they self-supply or just buy it from a friend.

It's not exciting, or fun, or immersive. It's the same old dark rp gun dealer we all know and love-
-to RDM
.

What I am suggesting is Gunsmithing (No shit, we read the title, get to the point) in this, we would have a minigame like system to find parts to guns on surface (This could be dependent on your job or just a open RNG system to find them) in a rare spawning Weapon Crate, when looted you'll get a box or something labeled "[Gun] Upper Receiver" "[Gun] Lower Receiver" "[Gun] Barrel".

When you get all 3 (Or whatever amount of parts content team deems a good amount) you can go to a weapons work bench and assemble the gun in another minigame (This can also be limited to MC&D or other gun dealers), and then keep or sell your weapon. This minigame (depending on what the dev working on it decides to be the best looting system) could be like cooking where throwing different labeled parts give different guns, or just needing specific parts for specific guns.

This would make the weapon selling market a diverse player ran market and add more to MC&D and other gun dealers than just a F4 menu.]

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
[Most likely, but I cannot see anything on a passing glance.]

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
[More to do on the server
Another player ran market with diverse prices
Alot of the Dev work would just be reusing code and models already in the server
Adds more to do on surface
Makes salesmen more RP focused on getting more supply]

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
[Can't just spawn a energy weapon from F4 anymore
Another grind]

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
[I see constant request for MC&D to change or be more than a raid the foundation/beg for a permit class, I think this system would solve a bit of that, as well as add more to the job than both. If this gets added we could see more interest in the job and more expanding onto it, something like a big MC&D warehouse full of dangers you can teleport to from MC&D's little lake house where you can loot a higher chance at energy weapons parts, or maybe even some new special weapons.]

Hello @Kevin Ki ,

After discussion among the content team, we feel that implementing a feature/ system like this would cause some complications such as balance issues with our current weapons, and making the weapons system more difficult for players to grasp. Along with this, we feel that this system would not receive much use, and would be overlooked by the greater majority of players on the server.

For the reasons I stated above, we will be [Denying] this suggestion.
