@robincitin23 That's more of your opinion, i like the game for all the PVE content, every time i played the DZ i just couldn't wrap my head around how anyone would consider it good or the true endgame

@ebthecomedian82 The game shouldn't also be "go hearbreak or go home", like classified striker was in the first game, people are just owrried that instead of adding new fun stuff we only get something that makes everything else irrelevant

@as1r0nimo This honestly is making me see the lack of details and examples on the previous inteligence annex as red flags, pure concept with no real finished ideas to start working on it

Giving it a bit more thought i think they should make the bonus armor part play a bigger part, such as "while you have bonus armor the missed shots wont count" so it becomes about player vs the bonus armor timer to get another kill instead and missing headshots no longer become part of the equation, they are only needed to kickstart the initial effect then the gimmick changes and makes the horrible accuracy of the semi auto snipers more bearable.

i'm just surprised we never got the headgear that comes with the netting

...and the thread is back to the same pair who can't stand eachother fighting...again

I do think that category or brands should decide what the bonus is, such as shotguns getting % bodyshot damage, or gloves giving reload speed. Small different boosts players were not able to get before and can now explore a bit.

Quite simply the bonus you get with Hotshot gear are pretty good and the basic 2 and 3 piece bonus are better than A&8 MMR and heashot bonus, both are about consistent headshots to keep stacking damage buffs that refreshes on continuous hits, so my suggestion is to add also 15% Rifle and 15% Pistol damage to the 2 and 3 piece bonus and make them also be able to proc the gear set talent.

We are only missing Rifle and Pistol weapon bonus in a gear set, it would help some rifles and pistols be more popular (including making a great combo with busy little bee pistol), increase build diversity, no large reworks just slap in extra weapon damage in the gear set and able to proc the talent

@finman2 Once again, you are looking at this wrong, this is closer to Destiny 2, Warzone, Outriders, Warframe, Tarkov. You can play solo, but you are NOT playing an offline singleplayer game

@dagrommit If after all these months and years of experience on this game they can't actually mention one thing they can plan assurely do with the next update, once again vague statments are fair game, but saying "it exists" amount to nothing, simply saying "we are looking at PVP" or the total opposite of "PVP is no longer our focus" is what i want, once again i DON'T want a detailed step by step of everything, but telling me that the right thing is to shut up and let the player base get angry somehow is productive instead of bulding communication to avoid misunderstanding is what they believe, then i gotta ask what the [censored] happened that they can't even come with a plan and be sure what they are doing after months.

I know each dev team has it's own pace and they were forced a restart, but even then giving no clear message is a failure on their part for me. There appears to be people with more patience than me, but all these months of complete silence is just jarrying and actually way more worrying to me. Risk of rain 2 had te devs outright say that the plans for the next expasions were amount the double of the normal content to the last big game update so it would take around an year to release as well keeping it clear that pandemic was going to affect the developtment since now they had more staff working with them, they haven't said a single peep since march and only did minor bug fixes in april yet i don't feel like they are have no clue on their next step.

Another complaint i could is regarding the Cassie exotic they talked about, why not drop before in any of updates that they scrapped that idea to clear the situation up, why let things up in the air only for start to stick in the ceiling get moldy and then answer about in when someone asks you about something else and use it to make a point. I know that A LOT of things never ever end up leaving dev rooms or experimental builds that never see the light of day or players get to know about, but the ones that they talk about, it's only fair that they follow up and clear things up

Yeah i know, i just find it fun write these suggestions

A weird fast firing, hard hitting rifle with some weird interactions with the sniper turret, because i think it's underrated. Using the model of an Lightweight M4 converted to .50 beowulf called Renaissance

Magazine: 10
Rate of fire: 320
Damage: High as Mk.20
Accuracy: Medium bloom
Stability: Very high
Reload speed: Very high

Talent:
Hammer & Chisel: Whenever you are holding this weapon your sniper turret gets an Hammer buff that gives an additional skill tier, gets 250% damage to armor bonus and only deals half damage to enemies without armor, can no longer deal headshot damage. When you break an enemy armor with the skills you get an Chisel buff on your rifle for 8 seconds and it deals 50% damage to health, kills while this buff is active reload your sniper turret.

Small note, if you have an tier 6 turret already you get overcharge when you get a kill with the rifle with a 100s cooldown.

So it's a weird slighty subpar rifle that similar to other talents like In Sync, grealty benefits the player if they play around with an odd skill that doesnt see much use, made the buffs pretty big so people are bit more forced to be active with the skill and the gun at the same time instead of just throwing the skill and going into sleep mode in gameplay

@CeddyRuxpin Dunno man i dont want anything as OP as classified striker in this game, still think that set is too OP and anything that much OP here would be even worse

@CeddyRuxpin We had two gear sets focused on tanking and being out of cover, Sytem corruption with the instant heal/bonus armor that works like a Div1 medkit, and later we got Umbra that nails down the concept of being out of cover and in cover in a rythm. Heartbreaker was dealing more damage than Striker and tanking more than full red builds despite being armor focused, so sintead of being a sidegrade for people who wanted to tank more than damage it's stacks got reworked pretty well.

If you think about it thanks to that it also got striker buffed so people can enjoy even more damage with it, in the end it brought a striker buff that was needed and the set still strong

Pretty much my thoughts on the matter. The situation is bad enought that people are just crashing, all updates have been getting delayed and all seasons have been getting extended because they need more time, even the basic updates for the season format are unsustainable, so just stop and work from the ground up

@hyper-sniper Just think you need to sit back and not engage with the game at all for a while, there is no magical fix for you complaints about the state of the game other than time, we know devs have hired people specifically to fix engine issues related to the crash and worsening conditions, ALL OF UBISOFT GAMES are suffering from constant servers crashes, there is a lot wrong with the situation and everyone knows.

At this point you are just burning your money on this game and complaining that your money is burning, then why throw more money if you know it's going to do nothing? You dont get issues fixed in situation like this by giving it money, because all ubisoft executives are going to see that with no effort game makes money and will deny support to the devs and instead invest money that hsould go for the game somewhere else, stop fueling the fire and let the situation change, adding more fuel to the fire will not result in situation getting any better.

This is a thread about armor values, why are we talking about game being laggy and devs being imcopent for the 50th time already

@Aced_100 Well asking for a button that gives you only god rolls on demand and kills all enemies in missions is also fair in the sense that nobody can stop you, doesnt mean others will think it's a good idea. I think the talent right now is too busted and makes the game a bit too "free" of challange, i do agree with others that adding a limitation such as cooldown or for only X amount of bodyshots before you need to get another headshot could work, once again no realism i just dont think it's "fair" to other builds, talents are like tools you can have one be better than others for an specific job, having an hammer that can cut bread better than a regular knife is not normal

@As1r0nimo 3) was mentioned on the spec rework, too bad it's being delayed.

But in general most spec weapons need reworks, the sniper as mentioned need to be the end all of high damage single shot weapon since it's own slot as spec weapon, it's the heavy sniper of the game in terms of design

@Aced_100 I'm not talking about real life tho

Being devil advocate here, isn't one shotting everyone with no real challange fair or even fun?

I do consider the suggestions for a cooldown to stop abuse a good idea tho
