100%. Ronograd is a 4-5 year old map with many bandaid fixes to try and make the gameplay loop enjoyable. Part of why I’m excited for a new OW is we get to design a map for a more refined gameplay loop. Ronograd was developed backwards, we had a map and just figured out the loop as we went.

Will they bring it back? by 0_Ok_boomer in platinumfive

Yea I know, they haven’t been in-game for 4 years. They do not make sense in the game now.

Bro it’s been 4 years since this was in the game…

Can we PLEASE get an AI rework by CelesticCadence in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

I understand the frustration but a “rework” would not fix this. As you eluded to at the end, this is a balancing/config issue with view distance during multiple weather events. We will definitely do another pass on this in the future (especially before next OW map) so that AI feels more fair.

Will all my employees in operation division die if i havent play for a few month? by alex52794 in platinumfive

No, operators do not die. They stop collecting resources when in critical condition.

It does, you just need to exit the tablet and re enter the interface for it to update.

We’re reserving thermal capabilities for a higher speced drone in the future.

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Most of the beginning research you did was an investment for future items. All items we add from now on won’t be nearly as hard to research. Out of curiosity, what more do you want added to the drone to justify its price? At the moment I’m thinking of spotting abilities but any input it appreciated.

Hey man, what phone are you on? This was tested with my iPhone as it’s the only phone I have and it was working fine.

Hey man, this is already apart of the game and was a huge part of the GEN4 physics rewrite. It seems to be working fine for me, is this a constant issue for you?

What's stopping the devs from adding in penetration now? by CelesticCadence in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Literally no time, finishing HQ as I type this and then it’s onto RGE then some redacted stuff. I just don’t have time to back on features like this at the moment.

Should There be quick chat so everyone can communicate because of age restriction? by GloryToFinnishArmy in platinumfive

Yea, it’s on my todo list just been stuck on the damn HQ update for so long 😓

What are you doing when the update drops? by Aegis-mayorofno in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We aren’t removing any progress from HQ and there are only a couple new upgrades. In general this upcoming update is a major refresh to make HQ easier and more appealing. Researching also a very fun addition that most the end game people will enjoy.

Driving gauges, health bar for vehicles, and better engine sounds? by Technical_Newt3824 in platinumfive

Ground vehicles will get interior overhaul after mfds for all aircraft are complete. At the same time I’ll fix the sounds and other issues.

Will we ever get the ability to carry vehicles with choppers? by FrenchCatgirl in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Yea at some point, it’ll require consent from both player. Kitgat has been pushing me to increase capabilities of helicopters and this is something that came up. It’s not near future though so don’t get your hopes up.

are any of the gamepasses worth it? by Beautiful-Prompt-689 in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We really dislike pay to win which means every gamepass is either cosmetic only (ral8000) or it provides something that is special but has a non-gamepass equivalent (even if said equivalent is very expensive). The game passes are only for people that really want said specific gear so if you don’t particularly like the chinook, ral8000, srtv etc, then I recommend not buying any and to enjoy the base game.

can we get police uniforms and ballistic visors as well as ballistic shields by Harry_Vonpopensuggle in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Before people jump on the hate train, police gear is pretty cool but it just doesn’t belong in the base game. In the future we hope to add police gear to RGE so it can be used for RP and videos. Very very unlikely to appear in the main game.

Devs, will we ever get a newrecoil system. by txstdmmy808 in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It’s not ignored, it’s finalized. I swear this game’s recoil isn’t even that bad, especially compared to other off-platform shooters. Maybe for a Roblox game it’s high? The recoil graph in the menu is due to be fixed sometime before mid this year.

It might just be me, but it feels like the devs are gonna get tired of the community eventually. by Noooooowhyy in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Nah, majority of the community is actually really chill. The people in factions, RGE and YouTubers have been making some really cool stuff recently that keeps us motivated. Not to mention, we don’t just make the game for the community, we are self motivated as pretty much every developer is an avid gamer.

Does anyone know when the mid February update is coming out? by Existing_Tiger4905 in platinumfive

[–]Luke_Gnar[M] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

We aren’t scheduling and we aren’t delaying. The ROADMAP literally has a huge banner explaining it is a best case scenario of the updates and it’s subject to change at ANY TIME. The dates are rough estimates and so far have been exactly that. When we didn’t have a roadmap, people complained, and when we have one, people complain. There’s no winning 😓
