If not this comm-link, then which one will answer questions similar to:  
Shared inventory and currencies?  
Reroll lock removal?  
Being able to chose which map and modifiers?  
“Red” item rarity similar to VT2?  
Upgrading weapon rating and blessings with diamantie?  
Having to earn the same blessing 80times over rather than unlocking inventory wide?

There’s a ton more but you get the point.

Honestly these 2 feel like very low priority, or in the case of blessing unlock I would be against. If lots of the other suggested changes are implemented, I would prefer unlocking blessings still stay within weapon families. It’s something to work towards for each family, and actually feels good when you unlock an important one imo.

There are some other balance changes happening in the next patch, namely changes to the Flamer and the Power Swords.

There is an ongoing conversation internally about cosmetics, and i’ll share more about this with you when I am able!

Good news.  
I hope devs don’t plan to buff power swords…

> [@FatsharkCatfish](#):

I hope that there will be new cosmetics that will be released…  
On this, there should be something done to allow you to complete a collection at a discounted price when you already have several items. I would like to buy several items of a pack, but, as I have already one item, I don’t want to spend 2400 aquilas to get the other items.

The same buff (headshot) for the revolver would be welcomed.

That was answered by a dev and the colour correlation is entirely coincidental.

Notice how Catfish conveniently ignored the most upvoted question here. My guess is Management is adamant about keeping itemization as bad as it is, so there’s simply nothing she can do about it.

Thanks for the good news on the hammer. It’s less than I was hoping for TBH, but always good to see improvement.

As I said numerous times, they won’t change entirely the system now.  
You can push for slight improvements of the system, but you won’t get the remove of locks (cause the system is built on this).  
also, we will get red weapons… but not now. They have to keep a window for improvement of items, that’s how they want to keep us involved in the game.

Sidenote: I don’t like the RNG… that’s not the system I would have pushed for… however I can live with it  
What I want to say to Fatshark is that the current balance between ordos to get a good weapon, cost to upgrade a weapon and odds to get something good is not in favor of casual players. This leads to less players… and this game need more players. Especially if they want to sell cosmetics.

I would still appreciate a confirmation that it’s been read and noted. Any communication is better than no communication (something I really appreciated from Aqshy).

Especially so, since I share the sentiment of “just let me know if there’s a reason for me to keep waiting or if I should just delete the game from my steam library”.

@FatsharkCatfish

Can you guys just straight up say if perk/blessing locks are staying or not and stop skirting around the issue?

You keep saying that you are focusing on the player sore spots and the talking points brought up by players, but this is one of the talking points that keeps being brought up again and again but gets ignored every time, and its most likely the most reviled part of your current design intent.

Just give us a straight answer.

FS (and Catfish) won’t say a thing if those design decisions are related to their player retention/monetization goals and strategies.  
And they probably are ^^

“In light of the stun reduction on Thunder Hammers, we thought to keep the P sword in line with them they will be gaining massive stagger potential and will regain infinite cleave.”
