I can see why it’s been implemented in PVP for those outlier matches but it doesn’t add anything to the game as PVE.

Secondly, outlier matches are exactly that. Outliers, why are we making major changes to the core game for matches that youve said aren’t very often?

I understand that it might not give the best impression when new players are destroyed by a level 377 but can I at least see my level? Or the people in my guild?

This whole “Max” malarkey doesn’t do it for me at all. What’s the point in levelling up anymore? People (especially gamers) like to see a number increasing.

Hello,

I do understand why starting a level with two players (& Cortez Bros) was implemented to reduce waiting time however can I please have the option to turn it off? 60%ish of my Raider games start like this. The chances of a successful game with me, baby Harec and the Cortez Bros on MOM is zero.

I think the concept is good but I’d like to be given the choice of playing now or waiting for two more people.

Thanks.

It should be automatically collected, like before, but with the excess left for others to pick up.

Leaving excess is helpful, leaving it all is annoying.

Antags aren't going anywhere, for whatever reason, but there must be some way to mitigate the annoyance factor a little with them surely?

I've played 9 games today and there was an antag in 7 of them. I'm not totally against antags but that ratio is just a little bit much and feels a touch like I'm sacrificing my enjoyment of the game for someone elses which isn't very fair.

What about a scale, that we choose ourselves so we get input, as to how often we're happy to have an antag invade the match? Say every match scaling to one in five or one in ten? It also mitigates getting a run of them as I experienced earlier.

Or like MMR scales so does the likelihood of getting an antag? That way those who operate at higher levels and should technically be better equipped to deal with them are more likely to do so. I don't think this is the best solution but at least it would give the new members time to get up to speed.

Or, you only get an antag once you've won XXX games, the same mechanic as the rare guns? Or only when you're in a team as solo queuing and getting an antag is probably the worst.

Or not having an antag whose level is higher than the average level of all players? Or the top two players?

Or just have some reward at the end, say 5000 gold/Faction when you lose to an antag, tied to RNG like the BP's? That way you're not guaranteed to get anything but there's a chance you'll get something making a loss more palatable.

As far as I can tell only the people who antag a lot like antags (understandable) but the feeling of pointlessness you get when your loss as a raider is driven by someone trolling "checking their skill" that's what needs work.

Thoughts?

Please can we have less engineers, especially on Low Blow.

It can turn into a war of attrition sometimes. Maybe have a set amount come out with each section? I appreciate that there might be a different requirement if there's an antag but when it's PVE it's not fun running around the map firefighting for 2/3's of the match.

Miners and Mines. Why do they have so much health? They're annoying to begin with but part of the game, ok, fine. But why do, especially, the mines have so much health? Who enjoys unloading full clips into mines? I'd wager no one.

If we have to watch three different screens at the end of the game (Cortez, rewards and XP) can we just condense them down into one? Or if we have to keep at the same amount can we at least have some stats in there? e.g.

Most damage done
Most Taken
Most Kills base
Most kills Elite
Most Assists
Most Aleph gained
Most lost
Most put into reactors etc.

If you want to throw some rewards to the winners - 50-100 Gold or factions that would probably go down very well.

Stats on weapons would be nice too. Maybe with faction rewards on hitting XXX kills?

I know the weapons have bounty and affiliation already but having them as other rewards for completion, like the EXP boost, would make a nice change and give people a bit of variation.

Being able to chose the time the rewards refresh would be useful. I'm in Thailand so the timing isn't great (for me). Not a major thing admittedly.

Cheers!

Hi,

Can you please tell me the reasoning behind the requirement for 1800+ EXP in order to level up as antag? It seems arbitrary and forces people who want to just play raiders to play more games as antag unnecessarily.

Can we drop this down to 1000 EXP? This way we can help our guilds with the aequelibrum boost without being forced to antag in multiple games thus reducing the fun we're having with the game.

Please.

Please.
