I am in the same boat, I loved the guns that came in the deluxe edition and I had to beat the game using other weapons because the Tiers above V did not exist.
Can someone from EA let me know if this is intentional, or if I am missing something?
I paid real money for these weapons because in the past the paid DLC weapons added a lot to the game, and these are also great. I really wanted to beat the game using them, but the damage they did was not competitive by end game (I was in tier VII).
How did you upgrade to tier 5? My deluxe weapons don't appear to be upgradable as the blueprints are not showing up in R&D...?
