Because better things will come. Get over it this is how mmo type games work. And before some idiot says this isn't similar to an mmo, There are "mmo" games that have less mmo qualities than this game does. It is a massive multiplayer online fps with role playing tendencies. Emphasis on the massive multiplayer part. Ever game has cool gear that served its time; now it's time for new stuff. If that didn't happen the game would become stale and samey. Let's keep it fresh. There will be a new wep that becomes the new g horn.
