a few oddball items here and now can be 'upgraded' or 'adjusted'... Katsuichi Determination is one of those items, old school-non sib is the original version - upgraded version is SIB... They need to do that with ALL non-sib items... and perhaps use ingredients that are crafted to do these type of upgrades, etc. A few armor sets can do a set buff now... need to get ALL armor to do likewise, and give each a unique set of buffs to make them attractive...
As for the webshop, for new folks, the starter packs are nice, but there's nothing much there for older folks other than the ammo packs... Ped packs are ridiculous since it costs more to buy through webshop than the regular way of depositing - change that... put major sales and discounts on there... lets get ped packs that cost 20% less is purchased in a certain window of time, etc. Lets get 'mid-level' and 'uber' gear out there... so what if it's soul bound... PPs are starting to do missions to upgrade soul bound crap like armor, etc. Lets give folks alternatives in the webshop to that so that those hogging the monopoly can focus on other areas of the economy.
