Uber, why is speed the only endorsement power-up?

It's cool that killing stuff drops speed boosts, but why not drop other temporary endorsements as well?

With the patch, you now even see the Speed endorsement flash on the right side of your screen when you pick it up.

I have to believe Uber thought of this and probably play tested it. I'm curious as to why they ended up only having speed drops in the game.

I think it would be pretty cool to randomly drop other timed endorsements like Armor, RoF, clip size etc. You could possibly balance it by only allowing one power-up at a time.

It was in a promo image of Bullseye dancing. All the drops around him are of various endorsements.

Uber must have cut it for some reason.

They did plan on all the endorsments to drop, but probably changed it because of balance issues, while only leaving Speed as to thats mostly the worst endorsment (compared to the others you could have).

Too many frequent drops would add too much luck to the game.

Pick up more bacon.

Juice say hi.
that said, Juice id the other endorsment that drops... I'll just shut up now.

Like they said - they had others, but felt it imbalanced the game.

ummm churros anyone? its skill pill with a extra dose of kill.

When they had all the endorsements as drops after picking a bunch up it would be hard for you to even remember what you had. It would all be based of off chance.

The churro functions kind of like a temporary skill/health endorsement, but I don't think that really counts...
Honestly I don't think speed should drop at all, it makes me feel like I'm wasting an endorsement slot for my favourite endorsement.

Well if you have gold speed and pick up a speed drop, you do get cash from it like a coin as well as the temporary speed boost.

News to me, thanks for the heads up.

I just thought of a new pickup: A doughnut that instantly reloads your weapon when found, and doubles the size of your magazine for 5 seconds.

Problem with that is that it would be near useless for Assassins and Supports.

Oh yeah, good point. Maybe increase rate of fire or something as well. Then every class has something to gain!

If you added all these other pickups into the game the weaker health classes would have as much health as a tank. Do you really want that?
