I wanna begin with saying, I am not the best antagonist. In fact, I consider myself one of the worse. I am primarily a support player. My favorite raider is Sooma due to her extreme supportive capabilities. Those support skills do not really transfer well to antagonist mode. However, that is not my issue.

My MMR is somewhere in the late 30s early 40s and while fighting raiders the mission difficulty often drops way below the average raider MMR. If the raider's MMR is 48% why is the mission difficulty 12%? For the most part the raiders and I are in the same ball park so I am not understanding the math MSE uses to figure out match difficulty. Personally I believe it should always be 3% higher than the average raider MMR. If there is an antagonist maybe increase mission difficulty by 5%. This way the game is actually a challenge and fun for the raiders while also providing some assistances to the antagonist. It is a 1 vs 4 after all. Which some may argue "But the antagonist has minions and elite grunts!" Which leads me to my next topic.

Enemies are not spawning for the raiders. When you play antagonist you will see a maximum of maybe five grunts. Maybe. I don't care what the mission difficulty is, there should always be a large sum of enemy grunts on the field at all times. The raider team shouldn't be able to sit in one spot of the map for 5 minutes and do absolutely nothing.

Which brings me to objectives. The shields you placed on some bosses was a good decision, one of the best. However, some bosses are still getting melted like Marmalade or Valeria. Even the bosses with shields are still getting melted. I'd suggest making the shields last longer. Also certain mission objectives are moving far too quickly even without aleph placed in them. Like on Upside Down, for example.

I feel like some of the complaints are falling upon deaf ears. I'm not saying anyone is doing their job poorly, I'm sure everyone at MSE is trying their hardest to please everyone. However, I feel some complaints are being skipped over. I am not the only player who feels antagonist are getting the short end of the stick either. Please MSE. Make antagonist great again.

Hello MSE, I would like to take a minute of my time to provide some gameplay feedback. I think the game is amazing aesthetically plus the raider model and map designs are breath taking. The lore of the game is also amazingly fleshed out. However, I have noticed a few issues that have been over-looked or placed on the back burner.

One issue in particular is the fairness in PvP. I understand in the past the scales were slightly weighted in the favor of the antagonist, specially when it came to newer players joining the game. But, in the current state of the game raiders are just practically being handed wins and feel as if they are deserving of it, often bragging and being overall toxic.

MMR is just broken. I made this post immediately after playing a game of antagonist and the mission difficulty was 28%. Why? Because my person MMR was 51% and their average mmr was 38%. There was zero adds spawning. I could not call orders, I could not get them to defend me, I couldn't do anything when it came to add support.

The toxicity in the community is another issue, however, I understand MSE can only do so much when it comes to the player's behavior. But, giving raiders wins when they are not deserving of it is not helping. A small group of raiders are often ignoring objectives to bully antagonist for kill points. Raiders often taunt or emote on antagonist kills, and some are even sending messages to antagonist who have lost matches to taunt them. Constantly allowing them to win is just feeding their egos and not actually teaching them anything. Stop babying and start giving them a challenge.

So years back I asked this same question and was just told MSE is collecting data on the subject. Now that some time has passed and Ginebra is getting a new gun, I figured I would ask for an update on the possibility of her becoming stress free in cougar form again.

I have not tested anything in game yet, however, I have a major issue with the weapon forging. Taking out Hero Killer, Exterminator, and Dynamic seemed odd at first but thinking more about it, it makes sense. However, I strongly dislike that these perks were taken out the game and then the weapons we had already built just take on the new perks.

I have every weapon in the game but I don't have blueprints. So now I have to go back and rebuild EVERY gun and wait 12 to 24 hours. We should have received blueprints for the weapons we have already had built. At least that is what I believe, correct me if I'm wrong.

So I watched the last Stream on YouTube, I often cannot catch the streams when they are live so I cant ask my questions then. However, It seems that you (MSE) plan on doing some serious changes to the weapons and how they work as a whole. On top of that, you gave us the ability to have multiple guns with different set ups built on them. So my question is, is there any possibility in the future that we (the players) will get at least 1 extra loadout slot? Its already a challenge in the current game to have just 1 loadout, especially, if you play raider and antagonist. Having 2 free loadouts instead of just 1 will make it so much easier to flip between favorited builds.

I know this is how MSE makes money, however, I'm offering just 2 free loadouts. The 3rd or even 4th (if there is a 4th that is) can be bought with mercury points. I have been hoping for this for years and I know I'm not the only one. Just curious if MSE has thought about giving this to the community?

So I already know people are gonna tell me to play with Dagan or whatever. But hear me out. I love the Phax. Its a powerhouse of a gun but it has a small issue that in my opinion makes the gun useless.

Phax's lock on is insane. The lock on time is long, however, with the damage it dishes out I feel it SHOULD be long. My issue with it is the fact that the lock on is so easily distracted. Here is the scenario: I, Shae with Phax, is aiming at an enemy. A different enemy walks in front or near the locked on target and makes the lock on START ALL OVER. The lock on is long and it should be but it shouldn't be interrupted like this. I love Phax but its unusable in its current state but no one is really talking about Shae.

So I wanna make one thing clear. These changes are great...for raiders. It makes the elites easier to kill and therefore not a major issue on the battle field. So what the problem? Well playing as an antagonist is the problem. Unless an antagonist player drops their MMR to stupidly low percentages, the antagonist has little to no help. I am all for antagonist winning on skill but having a 1 v 4 isn't fun.

Yes, there is no real reason to play antagonist anymore but some players enjoy it. MSE your slowly taking away motivation for players who enjoy playing antagonist. I get its a new system and changes will be made but in its current state...its one sided and frankly a lot of changes has been.
