Level 7?

maybe lvl 7 could have no boost (i would be happy if it did) to show that you are a veteran player.

The only level 7 perk I can think of would be for SharpShooter with more ammo on the crossbow. And if Tripwire still decides to keep crossbow like carrying an anvil, increase the carrying weight of SharpShooter.

The over-the-top ridiculousness of Level 6 is already pushing it. We don't need Level 7. They need to get the existing stuff balanced out before they power 'em up more...

So that the Sharpshooter can carry both the Crossbow AND the M-14. Nope, that wouldn't be gamebreaking at all. No siree...

There's a reason that A WEAPON THAT CAN KILL ANY ENEMY BUT THE FINAL BOSS IN A SINGLE SHOT is a bit on the heavy side...

Alternatively they should add lvl7 and once you gain it you can only play in new Balls of Steel difficulty after that (aka no suicidal or normal or hard after that), where weapons cost +150% of their base price, enemies are 50% faster in base speed, deal twice the damage dealt on suicidal, max active specimen # would be doubled and trader would only have her doors open for 15 seconds.

Then lvl7 might be justified

I don't think TWI is onto a good thing with this "levelling up" system they introduced. People will always demand more levels, and from what I've seen the game is getting more and more unbalanced as people progress.

What will we have 6 months from now on? Lvl 8 people running around with one-shot railguns racing for ZED's around? It's already the "survival" part of the title is only true for ZED's.

The problem I see is there's no incentive to play this game other than levelling up, and TWI just can't catch up delivering enough levels while keeping this game balanced.
