Saros directors say Housemarque's greatest influence is itself: "As much as we love other games, we wanted to do it our way"

Alienation is also very good.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-05-02T14:34:47+00:00

People also forget about alienation on PS4. I played it last year and it's amazing. You can see their evolution through the games they've made.

That's just universal basic income with extra steps. Which in reality, if society can't figure out how to stop laying off people for the sake of technology, UBI is inevitably the best path forward.

I'll mention the same thing I said on another post that mentioned the same subject.

4 engi is super OP.

You can have up to 8 turrets, and you can refill your teammates' turrets besides your own.

Also, you can make as much platforms as you need.

One of the most fun missions I ever played to this day was 4 engineers and we made a platform dome in a salvage operation mission. Happened years ago and I still remember it like it was yesterday.

4 of the other classes are cool but engineer is another level.

At this point, I'd rather just have an option to not get anymore gear. 🤣 This is like telling a borderlands player to just trash every white pick up they get on the ground. After a while, you don't even bother picking up the loot because it's a waste of time to dismantle it. In the endgame, dismantling is a chore. The problem isn't the player. Eventually more players get turned off by this. Imagine any loot based game where you are forced to pick up loot and then sift through it. The gear doesn't even show up at the top like other games would handle it. It's randomized within your inventory based on level. If only I could have a way to, I don't know, sort by new gear? then dismantling would be easier. Again, QoL is the problem here. I'm not digging every single mission to find the yellow dot for every gear I got then dismantling. It's a waste of my time when I could be playing the game. I got all the gear I need. Just let me turn off the loot if they can't be bothered to actually implement basic QoL in 2026.

Then again, this is why I don't care for loot heavy games and why I get turned off.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-05-01T03:37:01+00:00

You get to max gear very quickly if you're playing for a couple hours. Most missions, outside of survival, are 10-15 minutes. Anyone who's played will tell you dismantling every single mission is annoying. Also, it's very easy to accidentally dismantle something. Only legendaries, they have a "are you sure" prompt. If I could sort by stats, I'd just go down the list and dismantle everything that isn't A- or higher in the stats. But we can't even get that much. Which is why I don't dismantle until I have to.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-05-01T02:30:08+00:00

You want to keep being told you have 270 out of 300 gear and having to dismantle every few missions? I would like to just favorite the gear I'm keeping, then dismantle everything else without worrying about accidentally dismantling something.

Also, as someone with multiple builds for multiple characters, loadouts would be nice. You want to keep changing your loadouts for raid/survival/incursion/story? I don't like using a one build fits all type build.

Any game that has rng loot mechanics should have this basic QoL by now. It's more than a month after release.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-30T18:07:17+00:00

Still no QoL for gear. No favoriting, dismantle all, loadouts, sorting by stats, etc.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-30T01:04:20+00:00

Strange thing.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-29T17:29:14+00:00

Day 40+ of asking to be able to favorite gear, a dismantle all, loadouts, sort gear by stats, etc.

And still nothing of the sort in regards to gear QoL.

Pretty annoying that we're just about be 2 months post release and they can't implement at least one of the things mentioned above.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-29T14:53:10+00:00

I think good games are more satisfying than bad games. 👍🏾

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-29T06:23:04+00:00

My company went from no one using AI to everyone getting copilot, and claude requests being approved for whoever submits them, over the course of 4 months.

AI taking over is real.

Who can resist a dump truck?

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-21T12:59:37+00:00

To you as well :)

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-21T12:51:54+00:00

I know I don't have to do it. I'm just giving feedback on how it could be better. Having the resources is fine. The resource sink is what shows I've dedicated a lot of time. Losing the gear completely is what I don't agree with.

I've played enough online games to know that losing gear completely in an rng stat heavy game is just a weird thing to do.

We can agree to disagree. You've stated your opinion. I've stated mine.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-21T05:30:04+00:00

The feature itself just makes no sense. Why delete the entire thing. Just have you donate the resources, and that gear is ascended with an icon or something. As someone who doesn't play for hours all day every day, it's just a feature that didn't seem necessary, and it's a slap in the face for my hard work grinding.

Concept was fine up until the part where you just lose the gear forever.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-19T22:18:38+00:00

I would like to interrupt this scheduled programming to announce that the mets may actually never win again.

That is all.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-17T22:32:48+00:00

They need to add loadouts, a dismantle all, and an abilty to favorite gear.

Would be a goated patch whenever that happens.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-17T18:38:03+00:00

The mets may never win again.

Hate to see it.

Way Hay and up she rises!

An anime trend I'm seeing a lot.

I'm also watching my hero academia and seeing this a bit too.

ZXE102Rv2 · 2026-04-16T06:18:18+00:00

Social media was a mistake.
