You could make it so there is no cosmetic variety whatsoever without paying? Cosmetics don't affect the game at all. Giving you the ability to acquire them through gameplay is a plus.

It is a plus in my opinion if you can ONLY earn them in game. The minute you can buy them too it becomes a problem, as I outlined in a different post in this thread.

Beyond that, the idea of a 'piecemeal' game would make the whole game suffer I think. If players can buy only the parts they want, then nothing can tie into and build upon anything else to create something greater. In short, I think the whole game would break down. You can't buy a bicycle in piecemeal. You need all the parts for it to work. Otherwise it wouldn't be much of a bike.

Halo could be broken into pieces and still function exactly the same. Nothing greater is built by them being in the same package. Guess Halo ain't a bike.

Only as many pieces as there are separate modes. Because they are separate. But I do think something would be lost, because technically things like skills carry over between modes. Expectations. A much more intangible type of thing.
