Armas Weapon Resend Button

[OvermoderatedForum 71]

Sometimes when you're deleting seven pages of 3-day guns from Joker Boxes you accidentally nuke a permanent one. Having to contact support and wait potentially weeks on end to get it back is meh. With Armas now refusing to let you rebuy owned weapons you can't even bypass that wait time by buying the weapon a second time anymore.

 

So can we get a button to resend weapons we already own so that we don't have to bother support? The functionality is already there in a form when you make a new character and everything you own account perm is mailed to you the second you make the character. Can we get a way to do this same thing for existing characters? Thank you

 

*Edit*

As people have mentioned now, on the subject of unlocks for your purchases being mailed to you as you get with cars and clothes, if you check the database website these already exist for seemingly every weapon. Unlocks for zero-cost versions of Armas weapons. They just aren't sent to you alongside the weapon(s) when you buy them, for some reason. So a simpler solution could be to retroactively mail everybody the unlocks for their existing purchases and future purchases can include the unlocks by default?

i never understood why armas weapons dont include an unlock feature so that you can repurchase them whenever you want, the system seems to be in place already since permanent armas vehicles come with an unlock attachment

Dunno why this was never a thing since ARMAS was introduced in the first place. 

 

Especially annoying when you own so many guns that you cap out your inventory and have to send legendaries to your alts and cannot rent guns.

get's worse if you Futz up like me and actually delete a legendary (why do they even have the delete option)

[Flaws 1033]

Yes.

Just as cars, when you get a perm weapon, it should unlock it to be purchased on contacts, so you can delete/buy them anytime you want.

That reminds me that the unlocks actually DO exist already as shown by the database but just aren't sent to you along with the weapons, gonna edit that into the OP.

This should have been a thing years ago

Agreed

I made a quick html-edit to show a temporary system that could work until an in-game system is implemented. Instead of restricting the purchase of account-bound items, just give them a 100% discount. This shouldn't add to the credit counter any. People won't have to bother support with tickets over misplaced weapons (Save for legendaries I guess) and more San Paro citizens will sleep better at night without fear of Fidel Castro running off with their stockpile of N-Tecs.

Unlocks already exist for a majority of the Armas weapons. A seemingly easy method to allow people to re-retrieve their purchase without bugging the support team would just be to send these unlocks alongside Armas purchases so that weapons can be re-bought from contacts as needed.
