I can't be the only one who thinks getting a perfect roll or constantly trying to was one of the main aspects of the original and had us coming back for more? Now I see everything for what it really is.. reskinned and recolored with no real differences.
Levelling my guns to get a feel for them and unlocking the perks that felt signifcant were a huge part of the experience and without that it feels very empty.. It's kind of sad and since it is this way I don't see any 'U turn' coming any time soon on that route.
Edit: I'm definitely leaning more towards the randomization of perks or the addition of a way to customize the perks, and not the levelling of guns itself. It was something I felt needed brought up in relation to guns in the original.

Im happy they removed random rolls. Easier to get the gun you want and enjoy the game with it rather than grind for the gun only to get it just before an update comes out and makes it irrelevant. Also, not sure why people want to do the same activities over to level a new gun. It was fun in y1, but I was just pumping motes into everything in y3.
