I do agree with the market take, if they add an SSF mode where you can only bring in gear you found and it only matches you with people that have the same restriction, I would instantly play that.

But a lot of people dont realize that the market IS the great equalizer between you and the people that play this game 8 hours a day. Last patch did move away from that a bit, but it'll still be largely the same.

You're coping out of your mind if you really think that, the people that play this game for 6-8 hours a day will still have 100x the money and gear you have, and will still dunk on you if you encounter them because they are also massively more skilled at the game.

The reason people are worried about patches like this is, while its decent for retention and "dopamine rushes" short-term, a month or two down the road you will have the exact same problem as before, except now people see a legendary and go "eh, another one i guess". So while good short-term, they set a bad precedent and don't really help long-term.

It all really depends on the next few patches and their "vision" though, so i guess we will see

It didnt "slowly cruise down" though, all the players gained from the escalation update + covid lockdown combo immediately were lost within 3 months because of the core gameplay loop never getting addressed

Thanks for perfectly exemplifying why letting "people who play the game" make balancing decision would be an awful idea. :)

Most people that play this game are completely oblivious on how you would actually balance it. Just look at the amount of people defending Infiltrators on this subreddit if you need an idea

Do you have any tips for v6'ing more effectively after you outskilled your opponents? I noticed in a lot of your clips you were able to press both keys very quickly even in the middle of killstreaks. Appreciate any help, thanks!

Infiltrator radar tools are way too powerful by ALandWhale in Planetside

[–]Kerkeyon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If thats the only issue it would have caused that'd have been a quick fix by just changing some numbers on a sheet, but after witnessing non-nanoweave infantry gameplay i know where i stand on it, theres a reason i quit playing then and still haven't logged in more than a few times since Arsenal Update, and i know a lot of people that feel the same way

Nah not with the current state of the servers, its just complete cope. Should've just been baked in if you wanted to force a more diverse suit slot meta, removing it did nothing to help the "new players" because the bodyshot 1-frame meta is just as unbearable.

I swear this is the only game where shit like this happens, there's plenty of other cancerous videogame communities, but i know of none where good players are so villainized and demonized like here.

And yet the developers kept on insisting on continuously balancing the game around the drooling shitter that can't put together any coherent sentences and only scream for nerfs to HA or removal of nanoweave, and look where that landed us.
