I think they attempting to bring back the RPG aspect of the game. I mean some of us havent havent 'earned' xp since October of last year i.e. creating a new character and then progressing. It seems they separated the light and the leveling. I wouldn't mind starting at 20 and move up from there. 6 levels isnt a lot at all. At any rate, we'll see more as the date gets closer. Personally I'm looking forward to the weapons. I am going for all the auto rifles!!!
