Let's start with the problems.
High MMR enemies being too tough.
And high level players vs low level players.

Playing at high mmr can be excruciating difficult. Causing a lot of players to purposely drop their mmr and receive lower rewards.

High level players have an unfair advantage against low level players in the form of the passive skills. Making newer player's bullets and strikes feel like mosquitos. And on top of that they get extra damage against the newer players in the form of extra strike damage and upgrades guns.

The solution? Buff passive skills and only apply them to NPCs.
This will make playing at high mmr more manageable and offer a more rewarding experience for high level players.
And also take away some of the unfair advantages in PVP situations. Better game knowledge and higher level guns/cards should be the only advantage another player has over another. Leave melee alone to be the equalizer between high and low level players.

Of course we realize that. But won't stop us from having fun fantasizing.

Nixon/Agnew from futurama for Kuzmann.
Or any of their head in a jar characters haha

Johann Kraus from hell boy would be a fantastic kuzmann skin.

Lobo skin for Lycus Dion
Species "Sil" skin for H.I.V.E.
Girl with a dragon Tattoo for Alicia (a Furiosa skin would be good to, maybe even better).
Grifith (from Berserk) skin for Doldren

Lobo is the only one I know and would be cool. I'll have to look up the rest lol

Hey Raiders! (And antagonists) I wanted to break up the negativity a bit and have some fun. If there was ever going to be any cross franchise content put into Raiders, what would you like to see? I'm talking Guns, Skins, Characters, whatever!

I'll start with Samus from metroid. It was mercury steam's previous work with the metroid series that sparked this idea in my brain. It'd be super awesome to see her has a playable character. Have her classic arm cannon weapon. Hold the trigger to build a charge and release to fire. But charge with caution because it'll raise your stress meter! And for her ability she'd use her grapple beam.
She could use it to grab somebody from grapple distance and pull them close and automatically follow up with a strike. That would need a pretty long cooldown I think haha.

Alternatively, I think samus could also be worked into a ginebra skin, maybe with a weapon to match. Her tension bar could act as the weapon charging. And change her cougar form into the morphball. (RIP hitbox)

Obviously this is pretty unrealistic, but that's not the point. What're your ideas?!

Maybe you know this already, when you unlock a character, their default weapon is pre built at a forge level 3 with 2 points into every stat.

The only problem with that is incredibly unpredictable texture physics.

I'm okay with the line for aiming. Just the fact that it changes colors when your shot is lined up makes it too easy.

It'd be cool if there were weekly challenges for specific missions.
Kill 50 looters in weapon from a past.
Complete low blow in under 10 minutes.
Complete hanging by a thread without engineers stopping the engine overload.
Etc. would be cool to have a little something to work for other than blueprints.
