It was mentioned in one article that we will be able to upgrade our weapons withe so-called "E-Tech" - Eridian upgrade parts for barrels only.
And that is as close as we will get to the "guncrafting" because BL is about looting, not crafting.
GBX knows that guncrafting would ruin BL so the said one big fat NO to it, even if it is somewhat frequent request from fans.

Roboassassin, as the others have mentioned, this is a common subject. As such, we try to keep conversation to a single thread to reduce clutter. If you're interesting in actually having a discussion on the subject beyond just saying what side of the argument you're on, then check it out here: http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/sh...d.php?t=134287 Please try to search for existing threads on a subject before making a new post. Also, make sure to familiarize yourself with the rules here: http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/sh...d.php?t=116259

As for many of the rest of you, your comments are unnecessary and unwelcome. Posts like "Ugh, another thread [facepalm.gif]" and "mods should lock this", and especially the sarcastic "omg dis grate idea" are rude and people are going to get in trouble for posts like those. Whether or not you welcome the idea of weapon crafting, it's a popular topic of conversation, and there's a significant portion of the community that's interested in getting into the game. You can't just shut down conversations like this just because you don't like it, feel "it doesn't fit the game", or there's been a hundred threads on the subject.

What you do is you make a post (and not a rude one) explaining to the user that there's an existing thread on the subject, and to continue the conversation there. And link them to the conversation. If someone else has made that post, you don't need to do anything further. In addition, just report the post. Sends me a ping that there's a duplicate thread, and I can take care of it. Nearly two pages of harassment is uncalled for.

Anyway, Locked.
