PvP seriously needs an "unlock weapons" type of game mode

I'm not going to bash PvP too much, as most of the times I enjoy going in there. This is not going to turn into CBMM vs SBMM or anything either. I am going to be talking a bit about meta weapons and how I feel a new game mode could change things around a bit. I know I'm not alone in this (far from), but I'm getting tired of running into the same kind of PvP experience season after season after season - sure the meta might be changing slightly, and you can play around the meta and still have a fun time, no doubt. But after a while the experience gets hollow and quite frankly mind numbingly boring. I've been on both sides of the story - I've played around the meta, using weapons I felt were fun for me to use. And I've played into the meta, using the same shit as everyone else. Either way, the excitement slowly, but surely, fades away. As per game modes, the only real way to step out of the meta is Scorched, Mayhem and private matches (unless you have asshole friends lol). So my suggestion very simply is, to have a game mode with an upgrade system built into it. The more kills you get, the better guns you get to chose from on respawn (think Counter Strike). There a many ways you could go about it. One example could be to have 3 number of weapon types randomly selected for you, either on each respawn or just from the beginning of the game and that's what you get to choose from throughout the whole game. Another example could be to have one gun from each weapon type randomly chosen at start of the game, or again on every respawn. And so on. Now these are just brief ideas and I'm sure they could be explained better, but at the same time I'm sure you catch my drift. We need something to get away from the meta from time to time. But how do we assure that people don't just pick the weapon types that are strong within that season? Well, simply make those weapons harder to obtain. Shotguns and auto rifles for example could be more expensive, and would perhaps require around 4-8 kills (just an example), before you got to pick those. At the same time everyone gets the chance to start off with scout rifles or sidearms (or whatever isn't the strongest in that season). There are many ways to go about it, but I'm sure a game mode like that would be appreciated throughout a good amount of the player base. Thanks for reading, and make sure to upvote or comment if you have any ideas yourself or feel it could be implemented in an even better way!

    Eh, where as I appreciate the idea because I always used to like playing modes like one in the chamber and stuff on CoD I think the better players would progress to the better guns quicker and just own everyone lol you’d be stuck using a scout the entire match or at least some people would 😂
