Buying weapons with Platinum kinda depends on the player and how much time they wish to spend.

Buying a weapon with Platinum:

Gives you the weapon instantly.

A free weapon slot.

A free catalyst added on right from the start.

Without buying with platinum:

You build it using blueprints mats and credits you get for free as drops.

You have to wait (some people are impatient as hell and want instant gratification)

You don't get a free weapon slot. So if you don't have a slot you have to buy 2 for 12 plat anyways or sell a weapon.

They don't come preloaded with a catalyst. That means leveling it all the way to 30 then buying a catalyst with plat or building one and reducing it to unranked all over again.

These guidelines also apply to frames. Though prices on slots and reactors are different.

Back on topic, I wouldn't mind color packs as drops. But it really just comes down to "Is the color really that important?" If the answer is "Yes" I know what I have to do and have no regrets.
