Crypto I feel you there I’ve recently gone back to Xbox original and am currently playing some good old classics like operation flashpoint, an old BI classic back in the days of good long life games.

300 commons at what 100 exp each? Only 150 more and you can get a whole level with that!😱😱

Aye okay let’s have weapon kits for the 800 or so weapons in my inventory I’d very much like to clean every one of them 6 hours at a time please.....no not in a million years much as has been said by others we appreciate someone still actually trying to come up with ideas, fact of the matter is the game is running it’s course now. What we would also call “end of development cycle” the games been out awhile as we know and frankly I think even the devs are running out of ideas as one rare dev posted in another thread their basically thinking about what they can do to improve the game, basically scratching heads is what it amounts to. I honestly give this maybe a year or so in the development cycle or so before it’s ultimately put on the back shelf in favour of new games and projects. I don’t see it improving, I haven’t felt the urge to play it anymore and frankly all kinds of new highly anticipated games are coming out this year which people will more likely want to play rather than literally anything the devs come up with to try and bring people back here. Hell even if they gave us literally everything the community asked for and rolled back the good old times and gave amazing features the game is already heading towards dead anyway, not gonna compete with games like, oooh i don’t know ones that star Keanu reeves if you catch my drift. Anyways here’s to the gold old vigor RIP! 💰👍

Nah mate grease gun all the way! Or a lucky Thompson bullet from cross map all you need is single one of those beautiful 30 rounds to land on someone’s head and boom expensive gun for the player with the trash weapon 😂👍

I would personally like to know what the status of the shelter customisation idea is. I should hope that’s still coming right? Part of the motivation for looting was to get shelter improvements

To be honest I think part of the reason the queue times are horrendous is due to less people caring about playing anymore I for one haven’t played since about halfway mark into this season pass. Haven’t finished the pass and don’t intend to. Bored of the game in general. As I’d said before I was just getting ready to finally play again when the daily challenges got nerfed and all those crowns for looting supply drops dropped from like 300 to 30 👍good job!

Svd yes I agree but the hbar is not a sniper it’s a hybrid assault rifle marksman rifle so it’s fair game with that.

Not to mention the p**s poor rewards from doing them making it not worth anyone’s time 😒

I share the rage regarding daily challenges, I had three daily challenges I didn’t have time to do the other day so I saved them for today, logged in to find that two “loot airdrop” challenges 3 and 5 drops went from 135/150 crowns down to 10/20 crowns and my “headshot 5 outlanders” went from blue crate to 5 -bleep-‘in crowns. I’m with old ninja on this, this has been the straw that’s broken the camels back, i initially defended the latest updates having made some genuine improvements in the past. this truely takes the biscuit now not just halving the rewards but slashing them completely. Not just that but the exp rewards too. Hell even the food donation boxes seem weighted now to all the worst prizes on the board first where before it was just unlucky if you don’t get what you want now it feels like those electronics or crowns you want in that pile are literally the last things to drop on purpose. I’m walking away for another couple of months, no joke I haven’t played a match in about 2 months on here and I come back to see it’s even worse. Sorry for the rant folks but it had to be said

Not had that many issues with crashes though I have had that issue so feel your pain there. Tempted to still play a bit as I have some challenges for a small heap of crowns to get crates but otherwise still not playing outside of very good challenges to do.

Haven’t played in a month now just waiting on new content that draws me back in xD

I may be wrong but I don’t think radiation works like that does it? If your covered in radiation dust your already contaminated wether or not you put on the suit in that situation. I do think there should be some form of anouncement urging players to leave however when time is pressing. I would also like to see the actual hazmat suits from the last battlepass being practical and buying you more time in the radiation as apposed to those people who don’t wear them.

Knifing I general is janky but the yes the John is 3 hits from full health compared to 5+ but expensive as hell to craft and 6hr craft time. Only knife worth using assuming the melee combat gets fixed in terms of hit registration

Haha I had this with the melee challenges before the awesome “John” knife came along. It would be one I skipped every time cause you’d never get someone to sit still long enough to get stabbed 5-6 times, it’s annoying and bad luck but you’ll soon get better ones!

I’ve noticed this with the pm and a few other guns can’t physically complete certain shooting range challenges due to frustrating hit registration on the targets. Point black range the pm can’t hit the closest left plate for example in PM1 crosshairs right over it, full clip, nothing, wont break. Not a recoil thing it just doesn’t register, maybe a map mesh tweak gone a bit wrong?

It’s nothing unusual, I’ve stopped playing entirely at level 45 BP can’t be bothered until new content shows up I do the daily challenges and collect my materials and crowns and that’s it each day.

That happened a little while ago now I only upgrade when a challenge offers me a crate to do so.

To quote many of my emails from the devs “we do not replace lost or missing items”

Don’t really agree with the separate mode thing but I do agree something needs to be done with headshots. Interesting trivia though the Pm is the only gun in game that can headshot and not kill. I’d like to see either A: less headshot damage except for obvious weapons like sniper headshots and or B: head and body armor that act as consumables if they take damage you lose them or durability goes down when damaged and can either be fixed or replaced. Would solve a lot of nagging about camping if people had armor. More noise from heavier armor makes it harder to camp maybe?

Actually it’s true regarding the rapid completion of the battlepass. I know some pro players who grind crap out of this game and usually have like 100 crates going into each battlepass and almost always walked out with good high level drops either through boosting/teaming or just plain skill it’s doable. It’s why they nerfed exp on a whole again to slow the rate of completions.

The loot I have no answer for the crates I believe (speculating) is because of a volume of people saving up literally hundreds of crates to blast thorough the battlepass super easy, especially with the help of monthly food donation crates. I know several people who did this I myself saved up plenty from the previous season pass and got about 12 levels out of them. I suppose their simply tweaking the exp gains to stop people finishing within a week which was the case for many people. Hopefully they get the balance right at some point

Never seen it happen yet because the entire lobby never readies up but I believe this is to skip the load timer if everyone consents to it. It’s the same as how most halo games work multiplayer.

I would like to counter that the exp situation is actually way better then the first battlepass grind the issue isn’t exp gain but rather the weapon tweaks and insta deaths. The devs have as I’ve pointed out before elsewhere listened to feedback and implemented many features the community has asked for to my own surprise. Still a lot of optimisation work to do possibly undoing nerfs to some of our favourite weapons. It’s honestly getting there but they made a wrong footing with the last couple of updates but it can still be fixed I reckon.

I’ve not had issues with the hbar that’s super noticeable, then again I don’t use it as a headshot weapon rather just a hip fire assault rifle that’s quite good compared to other guns. Still the best weapon in my view

Yeah it’s an issue with most weapons sadly especially the m21.
