So skyscraper will come out the 22 and we know after the last sotg the first 50 rally point will be unlocked because people didnt want to play through lower difficulty.

Then on YouTube a ton of rant video about skyscraper replayability being cut in half. But why.

Skyscraper floors are generated in group of 3 with the scaling based on the floor. The elevator menu is just an extended difficulty setting. I dont see wasted floors. There isn't an unused folder with floors 1-50. If you want a new set of floors just return to the start.

Until tu11.1 I think this is a good compromise for agents that didnt want to go trough lower difficulties and agent that want to experience the climb.

After all changes to difficulties and target loot arent something that can change in a week.

Is good? is bad? You wanted to start from floor 1 without shortcuts? You couldn't tolerate 50 floors of easy waves? What's your opinion?

We plan to continue making changes and improvements to The Summit based on feedback, but not every change can be made all at once.

Within the PTS, a big note of frustration for more veteran players was the climb through the lower floors - basically a prologue to the content they were hoping to jump right in to.

The ability to start from 50 should help minimize that particular concern - but of course there are other major points of community feedback for the game mode that are already being discussed.

Whatever. You just know it won't be worth having, five minutes after you get it, because it'll be nerfed, and bang goes your only reason to ever play this content. Starting on heroic will do nothing, because the loot is so bad all the way through . Honestly, with this f**k up, they actually made Kenly seem attractive again!

Most of the feedback that I've seen for the Ridgeway's Pride exotic has been that it's largely underwhelming (at least in PvE content).

But apart from the exotic, what do you feel is missing to make The Summit worth playing for you? New enemy fire team and objective possibilities and addition loot containers will be added with TU11 - two of the more impactful core gameplay critiques of the mode.
