i’m sorry but it’s super weird that they don’t mention crafting at all or in recent trailers. It’s not mentioned in the “what to expect” faq as something that is coming later or won’t be included in the pre-order beta. I know it’s going to be a thing, and you can really feel it missing. I don’t know how they think they’re getting valuable progression testing data without it.
do they want people to think it doesn’t exist, that all we’ll have is the store? why are they trying to hide it? I’ve seen devs acknowledge it’s coming but only in messages on the discord not anywhere visible or official. new players are trying the pre-order beta and, totally understandably, thinking that the shop resets are the only form of gear progression, which naturally makes the gear loop seem really bad. It’s hurting the perception of the game, fatshark needs to make it clear that more is coming re: the gear/loot loop.
