Thats really disappointing to know that players would rather have you guys be there on camera, even when there's no news to show. I imagine yall would rather go home and chill out for the rest of the day then stay behind and set up the show to come up with something interesting to talk about besides the updates and content yall cant speak on yet. I know I'd feel that way if it was me sitting in those chairs. I feel for you guys.

While I appreciate the sentiment, I think a lot of us are pretty excited about being on stream and talking to you. Of course it's also part of our work and at the end of the day we're getting paid to be there. Still, State of the Game means a lot to us as a team.

The issue is and always has been that you guys always host STOG to talk about the dates SOTG will be talking about one subject that coming in the update when you guys could have held one SOTG explaining the details in the update. I am going to be honest just stop wasting everyone time with these streams it clear you guys rather make fourm posts then sit on a stream for 42 minutes talking in a circle telling us that cool stuff is coming well in reality it's just lackluster content that offers no replay ability. You guys say your listening to the community but we have been asking for replay ability since day one and you guys have not took no strides to achieve this. But hey you guys are achieving to create more way for us to grind those appeal caches am I right.

Yes, that sums up how communication works for us right now. We plan out what is going to happen, when things are ready and when we can talk about them.

As I said, we understand that some players only want us to stream when we have big news or can talk about the details, while others want us to show that we're there, that we're active, that we're listening and reflect that in the streams.

In terms of content, we understand that what we have delivered for now and with Episode 3 doesn't fulfill what everybody wants out of the game. So when we looked at the road ahead after Episode 3 we keep that in mind when creating more content and hopefully offer more re-playability.

The apparel events, apparel items and changes are not done by a team that is doing missions, raids, and other gameplay changes. It's a separate team so they work doesn't slow down anything else. And we currently also don't have plans do add additional gameplay events for apparel specifically.

Why after episode 3? Why not during episode 3? It's not like community has been voicing the pvp/darkzone issues I do not know since episode 1. My main question is how is red storm really spend their time when they spend whole days drawing people posing.

The simple answer is that it needs time to be done. That time is being spend right now but we won't have it ready for Episode 3.

How about talking to your higher management and bring a bit of visibility on the additional resources needed for the new content?

Or has Ubi completely lost their hope for the franchise?

What is going on here?

I don't think I'm qualified to decide if we need more people working on a project.

Hey Chris,

I don't like the fact there is no focused PvP/Dark Zone segment in upcoming SOTGs around Episode 3/TU1.7. Drew said they could make some room but We need DZ/PvP focused SOTG. Believe it or not. There's a portion of us that likes to PvP or roam the DZ. You guys have been silent anything related to the DZ or PvP. Just rehashing shotguns are overpowered. What about loot incentives and player experience in the DZ? Last DZ/PvP focused SOTG was like 6 months and that one was underdelivered. There are many of us who want to hear about changes to the DZ and PvP.

We won't have large changes for the DZ and PvP coming in Episode 3, which is also why we we're not planning to have a PTS.

That being said, we're already starting work on what's after EP3 and that will include changes to the DZ and PVP. Once we have the details nailed down we'll talk about them. We might also have smaller updates beforehand if we can confirm these changes are set in stone.

Yes, we need to talk about PVP for sure.

"We have this neat thing coming but we cant say what it is or when it's coming. We can say we'll talk about it a bit more but we cant say when. But it's going to be cool." Do that about 6 times and you have the whole SotG.

We suggested that and had a lot of player feedback that we should be there if we have news or not. It's difficult to please everybody and we talked pretty intensively internally about this.

Having State of the Game every week helps us stay connected with the streaming platforms, gives us a chance to chat with you and we think we always have small tidbits that are interesting. We do understand that not having big news every week is frustrating for some and that, as you put it, some would like a forum post instead then.

We're trying to do the best of both words by providing info on what we'll be talking about in State of the Game at least a day before or like today with a schedule for the next weeks.

Additionally, we do the weekly articles that recap most of the State of the Game topics and some other things we're working on. So if you do not like the streaming format there's other ways to keep informed.

We also understand that we just are not deliveri...

I would like to look into this, would you be able to provide the last 10 steps or so you did before encountering the issue ?

Did the game crash or did it freeze first?

I love that mission, although it's a bit hectic on invaded, it's so pretty!

The Jelly Fish has to be one of the prettiest backgrounds in there

As Dragonmaster mentions, Textiles (coming in a future update) will provide a new 'currency' from Duplicates, rather than XP. Textiles will allow you to directly purchase a majority of items from the in-game store.

Hey, apologies that this doesn't seem to have happened. We're looking into this.

We have fixed this and on login you should now receive three keys for legacy caches.
