Hotfix #71 (1.8.3) - Patch Notes

If something is trivializing the game then it needs to be tuned down. You can’t just keep increasing everything else around it. Do you not see how that doesn’t work long term? Doesn’t mean they have to make it useless.

so is it not meant to scale with dog damage? Because logically it feels weird that it wouldnt, since its the dog applying the bleed

Of course it does. Because you will find out that you get those kills a lot faster with specific weapons.

And what bearing does that have on the fact that a ridiculous grind is a ridiculous grind?

Any plans to enable the FFX swapchain when running FSR without upscaling?

FSR looks better with framegen on vs without purely because the swap chain isn’t enabled when running standard FSR 3 without framegen. It also causes a performance hit as well.

An update on this issue and when it will be addressed would be great for us AMD users

Yes. Let’s also reduce the penance from missions played from 100 to 15.

Insane powercreep disguised as a bugfix

Same. Completed them all a couple of days before the change. I feel like my time was wasted too. Obviously FS knew they were going to make the change for a while. They should have informed us IMO.

Your time was wasted? Playing the game and class you bought?

This whole topic is hurting my head.

Is it just my problem or sometimes it takes 2+ minutes to join a group after you accept invitation from party finder?

Do you actually join without doing anything after that long wait?
Assuming Havoc, I’ve had it bug out and not allow grouping up in all sorts of weird ways.
Usually fixed by a reboot, never had it just eventually let me join.

Played a few games yesterday and the sound would just go out and then you get blasted with disablers without hearing a damn thing.

Also wanted to mention that we should get the penance blue armor, havoc armor, for arbites and commissary armor choices to buy with in game money earned from playing rounds. It’s only fair. Also not all weapons have weapon skins available in the commissary. Not sure why some have them while others don’t.

Eventually it lets me in, unless group is full while I am stuck in between

Also it never happened before Arbitres patch

I believe they migrated servers with the big update. It was mentioned as part of the Ogryn pickaxe bug fix I believe (and also needed with the player number bump). But things have been a lot less stable since then. So, I’d chalk it up as server issues. But you can do a bug report if you think it’s worth it. Probably get more eyes than here.

I disagree. If a weapon’s strength undermines its own identity, then it needs nerfs. IE, if the lights are so strong there’s no point in using the heavies, the lights need a slight nerf.

well, from some twisted perspective of someone only wanting the :carrot:
it makes “sense” that any effort is wasted energy.

the rest get sometimes a “bling” by just playing the game and need to check what the heck they just “unlocked”

seriously, what is it with this “platinum” “achievement” :poop: , if someone still fails in higher difficulties he hasnt “achieved” anything :man_shrugging:

looking at the vet penance with dudes hanging from a ledge and waiting for their mates to make it to the end and then “aim perfectly”, yeah right…

no penance-skin portrait or other cosmetic distraction is gonna cover that fact.

not one “penance” have i ever done consciously except the gunlugger ogryn and was instantly reminded why i dont sacrifice my enjoyment of the game for some pixel rewards.

they either come by playing or they dont…
if i dont enjoy the hours i put into a game, whats the point of playing ?

The only thing ridiculous enough here is all the whiners and tourists crying for penances easily done with some extra skill and persistence. I did “justice dispensed” (3500 marked kills) in aurics histg with enough specs and elites for everyone able enough to kill em fast and consistently.

I wonder when FS will stop catering whiners and lazies and start growing a pair… Everytime i see penances nerfed i remember the atrocious nerf on “kill 1 mil heretics”.

FS should put more thought or control over their penances before releasing them or adjust 'em the sooner possible. Nerfing penances demanding valuable time and dedication from players after being completed is trashy and disrespectful.

Yeah i get that but being a completionist isn’t crime last i checked. Clearing those high number requirements sometimes forced a particular play style. I could have just played the way i wanted faster.

If not wanting to waste too many hours on grinding a boring penance on a boring build for a boring class makes me a tourist and / or whiner in your eyes

… HOW CAN I LIVE WITH THAT

(there never was any skill involved in that penance)
