What is different now than before is that they push us to gear up so much more of our roster now. The gear may be coming in quicker, but we need so much more of this due to needing so much more of our roster, and some pieces of gear like Guns, eyeballs, carbantis, cuffs etc are needed across many gear levels some needed at every level from 7 or 8 and up to and including 12. Most games that fall into MMO's, which this game mirrors a lot of is that the gear needed is different at every levels. THey also said they introduced kyrotech to ease the amount of stun guns needed, which is a laughable argument since Kyrotechs have been such a challenge to farm. 3 a day from dailies helps, but still very rough.
