this is an awesome game, for sure. However, you, definitely, do not make it easy for destitute individuals struggling through life, and just wants to escape the real world for a moment. you make the tools we need to upgrade our equipment so VERY expensive, and what we earn of those tools through game, is negligible,at best. I know there is no way, without cold hard cash,I am going to get the necessary and highly prized A-coins needed to advance my equipment, or buy  any new equipment. we win up to 9 A-coins at a time, tops, but need several thousand in order to acquire anything new that would keep us relevant, as competitors, in any kinda way in the arena. it makes me feel as though, I'm here just to be target practice & fodder for those who actually have money to buy the new mechs, weapons, & pilots. And, let's not forget the coins needed to upgrade implants, which, I don't think I've earned any through earned prizes, or the coins needed to upgrade pilots, which we do win steadily enough, but, never enough to see the prize any time soon. 

Is it to much to ask for a little adjustment to game payouts? so we can continue to be competitors and not just canon fodder to those that can afford to buy upgrades? as luck would have it, I'm not terrible at this game, and even tier 3 basic mechs & weapons, I give my competitors a run for their money. it's enjoyable and satisfying But I know I will have the same mechs & weapons while he upgrades to bigger & better so as to beat the bolts outta my mechs. it's really kinda frustrating. as I said, I'm kinda lucky, I do get a trickle of money come to me every so often. So I, at least, am able to upgrade a little here & there, but, so many others that do play this game do not have the same luxury.

So,why not offer, as a reward, new mechs, pilots, weapons & implants in an arena setting geared to one on one battles? it would be fun, we would really test our skills, and we poor folks would definitely be motivated to bring our A-game, maybe set up a way for the contestants to view any of the individual skirmishes. I would definitely enjoy such a contest of gladiators.

For whomever reads this,

I thank you for your time & attention.
