Equipment from Mods

I think this should have a section for equipment from the base game and a separate section for equipment from mods. Just using headings to divide the two would be sufficient. As it is, it's harder than it needs to be to tell what equipment is in the base game. --Trifler (talk) 20:56, 19 August 2014 (PDT)

Hello. I don't quite see how it is difficult to tell what equipment is available in the base MC2. Then again, it might just be me, as I am the creator of this page and layout... Each weapon has a trait listed as "Availability"; I might change that to "Game Version" or something similar. The intent behind the page format is to take up less space, as there is a lot more equipment yet to be listed. I might also be misunderstanding what you are asking, pardon. If there is anyone else that has advice regarding data layout or anything, please do present your thoughts. Thanks! --Raven 2C (talk) 12:24, 21 August 2014 (PDT)

I'm just talking about listing vanilla equipment under a ==Vanilla Equipment== heading and everything else under an ==Equipment from Mods== heading. I do appreciate that it was probably a lot of work to make all those tables. --Trifler (talk) 01:07, 22 August 2014 (PDT)

That makes a lot of sense, but may make the article quite long. Also, you can't easily compare them if you'd want to see the changes the mod made vs the vanilla. Whichever way we do it, I think it needs to be uniform throughout the rest of the game subpages. -BobTheZombie (talk) 13:53, 22 August 2014 (PDT)

I'm more in favor of keeping everything compact and a bit more unified. There are also those "See Also:" sections for canon BT equipment articles that would link to here, and I don't exactly like the idea of having to add a separate link to every weapon with different game/mod stats for just one game. That's just my opinion, however.--Raven 2C (talk) 14:51, 22 August 2014 (PDT)
