I think it's important to call us out when we have systems or mechanics or otherwise do things that you don't enjoy, for sure. In the same vein, let us know what parts of the game you are liking. Feedback from all types off players, however detailed and nuanced, helps us make the game better.

That said, with a playerbase this large, it's inevitable that some people won't like changes made to the game or a direction that we take. In that case, more feedback can go a long way.

Some of the big appeal, if I recall correctly, was just that. Everyone starts from a completely equal playing field every time.No meta-focused builds, no overpowered synergies, no cheesy strategies... just a test of skill and game world knowledge.

Plus the added tension of the storm-torn city and a desperate fight for your life didn't hurt either.

I feel profoundly conflicted every time I glance over it.

But the thread has solid advice and admittedly an eye catching title.

I appreciate the mixed feedback here, everyone.
What skills, weapons, or tactics did you use for the Gunner quest that you might continue to use now, if any?

We had a maintenance on the 20th that addressed this, but it didn't solve it 100%. Thank you for the additional report. What type of enemy dropped the ammo in particular, if you can recall?

I personally swap them out depending on the overall look of my Agent. Gotta have matching accessories and all that, of course.

The layers of RnG are ridiculous for anyone not spending all day grinding away. I get it, if we were allowed to change everything, then everyone would have min/maxed builds but damn throw us a bone or something lol...

That's how I always took it. When the outposts fall, consolidate power/resources and dig in for a final stand,

Interesting to think about... Mechanically it's similar to a boss unlocking new phases and new abilities/attacks as they get weaker. Maybe Control Points make more sense, maybe less. Who's to say?

Well I would certainly hope so.

Fantastic jokes aside, I don't believe there have been any changes made to the lighting system. Are you noticing this kind of darkness in areas with few lights or with no lights?

I personally think a lot (if not all) of the changes have been pretty positive for the game. That said, there are still large and important points of frustration for a lot of players. I think you'd enjoy coming back, but waiting until more has happened is always a safe bet too.

Could you elaborate on this please?

While I can't condone waking the up the family in the middle of the night, this does sound like quite the encounter.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
But maybe keep the screaming to a minimum.

I've been following reports on the Aces & Eights for a bit now, thank you for the additional info!
Real quick, what platforms are you each playing on?

Great advice in here, everyone - some really solid tips. If I may throw in my own two cents... Get a lay of the land before engaging. When reinforcements come, a lot of them will come from the same general location. Using grenades or other crowd control tools like Flame Turret can turn the second wave into a second puddle.

Play safe, play smart, and use good preparation when you can.

Once on high alert always on high alert... I'll make a note of this though.
I've seen some payers postulate it's meant to get you out of the BoO and back into the world though, which is a fun thought.

OP, it's just RNG being RNG and - as the two usually go hand in hand - confirmation bias being confirmation bias.

I wish you the best of luck with drops to come though.

I appreciate the feedback here, everyone. Been seeing threads about shotguns & PvP pop up left and right recently, so thank you for the reports.

I can relate.

Thanks for sharing the info everyone!

I'm thinking about going with the full old school hip hop look, just because it's so dumb.

Every once in a while I remember I have a jacket with the sleeves ripped off or something. I think the new dream is to assemble a 4 man squad that doubles as a punk/grunge band.
