[Brainstorm] Gage VS Butcher "Arms Race"

First of, some might say this suits the "Suggestions"-Forum better. Maybe, but because this is more of a "What if...?" idea supposed to be expanded and fleshed out by the community than an actual suggestion to Overkill to actually do (as the resources required to actually do it might be not worth the effort), I don't feel it's unfitting here, either.



So, what's this all about, then?

It is obviously known that right now, the newest weapon packs are delivered by the Butcher while up until last year (potentially including the Overkill Pack), we got our weapon packs from Gage. Latter is now on a 'vacation', whatever that actually means besides Overkill not being able to get the actor back for a while.

Now, the following is all assuming that Gage does come back at one point. What would that mean? Before anything else, it obviously means another Gage Weapon Pack of some form. But after that?



After that, there is what I would call the "Arms Race Event" (stupid name, but I couldn't think of anything better. Sue me.)

It would be, basically, a form of duel between Gage and the Butcher. If anyone remembers the War Update from TF2, they probably have already a very vague idea of what I am proposing.

For those that don't or want a more detailed explaination:

Both Gage and the Butcher are going to release a single weapon at a rather low price. Say, for 1$. Said weapons can be anything, but I would go with the two most requested weapons by the community (probably the UMP and the F2000).

That would then go for about a week or two. People buy the guns and the arms dealer that sold more copies of his or her gun wins.

So, what would be the price?

A free, full weapon pack, containing everything we normally get (Three to four weapons, four masks, materials, pattern, achievements - the usual).

The loser then, of course, releases the other weapon pack as well, but that one then would be paid.



If and how much of each weapon pack gets revealed would be then still up to Overkill (assuming they would do it, which - as stated before - I don't think is going to happen)





That would be it, then. If you want to expand on this idea or want to give out your opinion to it, feel free to do so.
