oh never mind, you brought it at last second
Yeah this is the bizarre part.
You would think after a certain point theyâd either 1) stop listening to the idiot who keeps proposing these things or 2) at the very least give starting points to the community and testing the waters so they stop wasting time on garbage systems.
It really feels like they donât know why people play their games so they resort to bottom-of-the-barrel tactics for âplayer retentionâ.
This entire game COULD have worked off âkeep it simple, stupidâ. Other 4-player co-op games have had solutions this entire time.
Missions? Do a campaign, let players pick missions out of it, if you HAVE to do quickplay, give them filters and control.
Weapons? Why bother with stat bars and increasing enemy health? Just have weapons do their job the same way, make them buyable directly.
Cosmetics? Achievements, everything else can be bought straight from the store. Farmable currency is possible but wouldnât be the end of the world if everything was available for straight purchase.
But instead they make overcomplicated dead-on-arrival systems for things that donât need fixing. I donât know if thereâs a requirement for âwrite x lines of codeâ or âdevelop y new featuresâ as a quota in that studio or something but itâs really clear that they keep trying to reinvent the wheel with each game and failing.
The ogryn rework was great, because apparently players were more or less in charge of it. Why canât they do that for everything else? Ask the niche community that actually plays their games?
Nobody asked for the party finder, havoc or mortis. They could have added a 6th difficulty or new modifiers without having to make whole new gamemodesâŚ
Honestly, everything surrounding the core gameplay was broken since I played the 1st beta, and I think it still is mostly. The attempts at fixing stuff havenât really addressed the fact that the entire game was built to sell cosmetics and waste time with RNG systems. Nothing can fix that except making a whole new game.
Iâm tired of typing âmap and modifier selectionâ.
The issue is with the havoc revamp its almost inpossible to climb to 40 now. Vast majority of people holding 40 climbed prepatch. The way it is now is garbo.
Youâre wrong, all levels 40 were lowered to 32 or 36 after the update, which I donât remember accurately. But I was at level 40 before the update, and I regained it through multiple games.
to 30.
If you want to get level 40 as quickly as possible, you need a stable team that can communicate with each other. Otherwise, youâll need to pick your team carefully every time to avoid defeat.
Mods are helpful, and by looking at your teammatesâ talents and equipment, as well as their level, you can get a general idea of his experience and understanding of the game.
Which is why deranking is stupid. Im gate kept to finding competent team members every game. Completely destroye the idea of a party finder.
Fix your crashing buggy mess of unbalanced spawns and DCs and crashes⌠or remove derank, fatshark⌠one or the other. But do it before the playerbase shrinks more.
Just had a nice bug whereby it wouldnât let us press the play button on havoc- not because anyone wasnât able or that other stupid lobby bug they âacknowledgedâ but didnât fix, just doesnât let the play button work lol. And another lobby bug whereby the game crashes and demotes you before you even start the &^&^(&&*(ING MATCH!!!
IT IS A MESS AND GETTING WORSE!
I joined a game with a couple of friends for a change. We picked a Havoc mission I had, we crashed in the lobby. I got deranked, I can no longer progress with the mission until some hidden timer runs out. Great gameplay Fatshark, terrible game mode.
ngl the way you come across i probably wouldnt want to play with you anyway just had a guy like you that felt he was the main character and ragequit in my 40 cause he solo died while the zealot and i went to rezz the vet (Runvald i hope you become happy in life and wont babyrage over a pve co-pp game anymore ) anyway still cleared the mission as 3 stack
but yeah we could play send me your code or something just helped a friend of mine today complete the climb from 20-40 today as long as you are not too obnoxious cringe / toxic i dont mind playing with you and can help you climb back to 40 if you dont mind eu ping
btw hours dont necessarily translate to skill otherwise i would be a great painter now
edit: ngl kinda sad how offended you get but sorry to disappoint i dont play aurics
We wished for no deranking, we got no deranking only at 40. Iâd say thatâs not what we wished for, but Fatshark, once again, gripping tight to whatever vision of demoralization they have for the player base. The whole crafting lock thing playing out again. I guess itâs grimdark âŚ
People tend to bite back when you come in and immediately disrespect them. Youll learn as you age.
And the host of shills and white knights will keep defending it in its worst form. If there is one true constant in all universes its that just when you think sapients have reached the absolute rock bottom of stupid ideas they blow out the floor and keep on digging themselves deeper.
