So as I have yet to really see anyone throw it out there yet. what do you all think about the upgrade-able weapon concept? Bungie hinted at some of this in concept art and when they spoke about the game but I haven't heard anything conclusive about it yet. personally I would love to see an assault rifle type of weapon that has range and power if at all possible. maybe firing something like electrically charged hunks of metal or plasma rounds. For maximum penetration into some cabal heads. what about you what would you like to see?

I'm really glad that weapons will be upgradable over time. As I've said a couple of times one of the only major issues I've had with the, presumed to be similar, Borderlands 2 is the 'take it or leave it' nature of loot and as such how combat can become harder if you're in the middle of a 'loot drought'. I certainly hope that accuracy, ammunition capacity (both in the chamber/clip and total capacity), damage, reload speed, fire-rate etc can be upgraded. Though I think the best weapon stats should remain with specially created weapons so that we don't end up with OP upgraded weapons. In terms of customisation I hope we can put various attachments on the weapons as well as give them custom paint jobs.
