Those of you familiar with Tribes: Ascend should already have a good idea how to unlock weapons and attachments in Planetside 2. You can either pay a one-time fee through the Station Cash store, or you can leg it out and gain enough certifications through actually playing the game in order to land your new red-dot sight or new sniper rifle. Unlocking through either method can quickly become a very time-intensive or expensive endeavor, as weapons are only unlocked on a per-character basis.
The good news is, Sony is listening to your feedback, and has plans in motion to make weapon purchases account-wide. Apparently this is for Station Cash purchases only, so if you’re going the route of completely free, you’ll still have to go through the rough with each character. Additionally, any weapon that is faction specific will not be usable with other faction characters, obviously.
