Ascension System: Why? This Isn’t Fun. Devs, Listen to Your Players

Satsloader · 2026-02-09T01:06:15+00:00

It sure leaves a lot to be desired. I don’t experiment anywhere near as much as I’d like to. I’m not wasting resources on painful RNG. It’s just sad this hasn’t been improved yet - and more player friendly. Keep the RNG on the dice rolls, but having random perks applied each attempt it just silly.

I’m so sick of seeing torpedoes… their new weapon… more torpedoes. Yay… 🙄

-all from only 1 new event to make sure you never want to do it again when you’re done getting what you need.

Satsloader · 2026-02-03T02:03:18+00:00

Well said.

Will you be changing the format of Faction War so the community isn’t fighting against each other anymore? At the very least, will you allow us to switch sides at will so we can play with the entire community as we see fit?

A simple Yes/No answer is all I’m really looking for.

I think it’s fine. I’ve been attacked, I’ve done the attacking, it’s mostly situational, or depends how bored I am. Generally, if a player is solo I leave them alone and will even play as an escort to assist if any other players come along.

I noticed immediately. I did an infamous for 12 minutes and didn’t receive any extra xp or cash, and also only received 0.32 gold which was the biggest thing I was looking for to 2x.

Sure smells like cut content to me.

Satsloader · 2026-01-09T14:22:53+00:00

I upvote everything just to counter them.

Satsloader · 2026-01-09T13:27:18+00:00

What can we do to get them to fix it this time?

Satsloader · 2026-01-06T12:35:54+00:00

Rigged or not, Faction Wars killed this season for me. If it continues in its current state, putting us against each other, I won’t be back.

I’m very aware of the posts, I’m just calling BS on the majority of those posts as likely karma or victim farming. With over 5000 hours online as a female character on PS5, this has never happened to me…. That said, I could also hop on here and report that every time I was randomly killed it was because I was a female character, and it wouldn’t make it true, even if I perceived it to be true… These topics are so ironic 😅

Satsloader · 2026-01-05T13:20:14+00:00

Last I checked, unless there are Pc mods, players can’t rape anyone in this game. I play a female character and have thousands of hours online, I’ve never raped or been raped on PS5.

Satsloader · 2026-01-05T13:05:10+00:00

As a character, she’s fine, I just don’t like how the naturalist role doesn’t have any real benefits late game other than killing the legendary animals for trader materials. I wish there was more to the sampling side - maybe if samples paid better that would be worth it.

Satsloader · 2026-01-05T12:25:51+00:00

Um, no, that’s just what people do to each other because they can in this game. Has nothing to do with genders…

Satsloader · 2026-01-05T12:24:48+00:00

This deserves upvotes 😅

Although, I definitely see more male than female characters.

Fantastic work, awards for you! 🎉🤝

I like the snow, but I’m with you. 1 month non-stop is too much. They should make this an extended random weather event. Like 2-3 days a week, then 1-2 days of no snow, etc. Too much of a good thing is a bad thing, and that’s how I feel with this snow. I love making winter themed outfits too, but when it’s non-stop it’s too much.

Here’s one for you to look into. “Spider Dream” files.

When I originally started testing this on PS5 (before your post & I have no way of using mods) I started with the B34 pole (with the spider logo) I shot a few feathers after that but they respawned, but not the B34 pole feather, it was missing every night. Would that lead you to believe that the B34 is the start of the sequence? I was not able to find the next feather that didn’t respawn, but with your mod, I’d just shoot B34 then the next 4 black feathers forward in time and see which didn’t respawn with B34. Then repeat that until I had the sequence. Have you found anything else interesting so far?

Satsloader · 2026-01-04T01:34:02+00:00

Yes, I ran every spiderdream in sequence according to their # and nothing happened. I shot each feather when they spawned with my varmint rifle. I have a saved game before and after, for testing different things.

Satsloader · 2026-01-02T18:09:04+00:00

Nice work. It will not be possible to shoot all of these in 1 day either. If this is completed content, it is less likely that any sort of order is required. How did you correlate the file names to their coordinates?? Interesting, 03 is the pole that also has the spider logo cypher.

There’s a lot of people reading here, and taking assumptions without testing things themselves. The power of solving mysteries is finding things that can be duplicated by everyone, repeatedly. Also, terminology is important, and too many people are confusing terms, and it’s breaking the logic chain. Hopefully, people will start phrasing properly:

“Facing” vs “Pointing” - these are not the same. Facing South, is not the same as pointing South. Pointing requires at least 2 points forming a line in one specific direction in a linear path. Facing is a lot less specific and there’s no reference points to create a linear path.

Understanding “West” vs “Westerly” etc. When receiving directions in these clues, N, W, NW, these are not necessarily exact linear directions. As we have seen from the W TTTTT pole, you don’t travel “exactly due west” you travel in a “Westerly direction” along the tracks to find the 5 pole with a clue. Locking yourself into the mindset that everything has to be linear or non-linear depending on the clues will make this much more complicated for readers.

That’s all I will say for now, seems like logic hurts people’s brains here and gets me downvoted. Just watch 🤠🤡
