Wouldn't that be both a blessing and a curse of roulette?

What if you came home and someone had turned all the furniture in your house backward?

I still would have rather seen a more definitive level/tier system.

What if only lvl 20's could queue for platinum? And platinum didn't reward experience at all, but was the only method to acquire the 99k packs.

Or something to such effect. Essentially giving something more than just "MOAR CREDITS FOR BOSSSPAM".

It's not usually a good idea to discriminate against your own playerbase.

Look at it from the standpoint of most RPG's throughout history. A player needs to reach a certain level to become capable of entering (Successfully) an instance/dungeon/heroic zone/etc. The rewards are tuned accordingly.

By having platinum at all you're discriminating against playerbase.

That being said, levels would have to be tweeked. More of the playerbase would have to be able to complete platinums,

RPGs typically maintain a character progression requirement over a player progression requirement. You are also comparing single player design to multiplayer design.

Withholding content (ie packs) based on skill level makes you look like a dick.

Do you really think someone only capable of doing bronze has the capacity to max out their UR's in this lifetime? They already do it.

Listen, I have to ask. You and NuclearTech aren't from research (or marketing) dept with BioWare are ya? Nothing wrong with brainstorming, quite like it and some ideas are like "I want them now"...  but you two guys take it almost to a pro level Image IPB

While true the fact that they have a character progression system in place sort of invalidates this part of your argument.

As it is having the 20 levels in ME3MP are kind of a waste of time comparable to the rest of the multiplayer experience.

Well that makes it simple then. I disagree.

You can't disagree with a fact. A rough estimate to acquire all possible items from the store (excluding consumables) is a minimum of 44,577,500 credits. If an average bronze game takes 15 minutes and gives 15,000 credits, it would take a bronze player roughly 2972 games and 743 hours of playtime to max their manifest.

At this point, if someone were to troll, s/he would say something to the extent of: 

The virginity is strong in this one.

I, however, would beg to differ, as I notice that your suit and monocle really add to the mystery and depth surrounding your character.

That's rather opportunistic statistics you use there, in the game there's no sampling tool (i.e. pack) that allows you for exclusion of consumables. That alone would skew number of samples/time required. However that doesn't negate your point, order of the skew will be affected by outside parameters (like changing to higher difficulty, if allowed, or spending money to acquire packs) and should still remain achievable.

You can't can't create an objective value for an RNG, so this is infact the most optimistic estimate possible. But impossibility only has one circumstance.

Personally, I wish that the Unknown difficulty was more adjustable. Say, being able to select silver/gold, or gold/platinum. I would have loved that back when I was moving out of silver, but still not quite adjusted to gold.

If you state a fact instead of an erroneously large amount of assumptive statistics then you might be right.

        Seeing how this is how I unlocked most everything up until reckoning it would be slightly discrimitory to withhold packs based on whether you play platinum or not but if you were to unlock weapons based on this premiss then said weapons should only work in platinum .

       Back on topic if you are level 20 experience bonus would be a moot point  15% credit bonus maybe .
