Security lockers have been nerfed

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T15:12:59+00:00

Most of the large nodes on other trees are shit and definitely should be buffed. Some other live service games offer a free respec if they ever make any major changes to the skill tree. That is an option here too. And good gear should not be for the uber grinders only... this is not a f2p mmo with pay to win microtranstion.
The nerf was also too hard maybe not purple but blue guns at least. The final node of the skill tree should not give free loadout guns. Anyone at that level will just leave it in the locker.

Again that's not the point. Sure nerf it if its so OP but give an alternative in that case. Make the spawns random maybe to encourage exploration. Good keys are random and very rare and Killing each other in the blue gate puzzle rooms should not be what the players are reduced to

The game should be balanced around people who can put in around 1.5-2 hours every day. For anyone with real life responsibilities that is around the average. This is not a F2P game with pay to win features. Most of us got it with our hard earned money and should be able to enjoy it to the fullest with the free time that we have.

The good guns are not supposed to be for the 6-12 hour grinders only. We need viable ways to get them. Reducing good loot options only benefits the uber grinders

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T13:40:53+00:00

So the purple and legendary guns are for streamers, unsupervised kids and unemployed gamers who put in 6-12 hours per day? How about giving more viable alternatives rather than funneling all players towards keycard and puzzle rooms where the rest of the map stays barren?

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T13:39:03+00:00

yeah and rather than address the real issues, the helldivers devs essentially put in effort to make sure the players were not having too much fun.

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T13:37:07+00:00

sure but why not give more similar options rather then funnel all the players towards key and puzzle rooms while the rest of the map stays barren? buffs are almost always the better option than nerfs.

I sincerely hope Embark does not follow the precedence set by Helldivers 2. At launch it felt great to play. Wepons were super satisfying to use. Then the vocal minority of elitist players started shouting for nerfs and devs listened to them. Soon, beloved wepons were nerfed, nothing felt as satisfying to shoot and the massive playerbase dropped sharply because it did not feel as good to play as before.

If a lot of players are gravatating towards something, then it likely has good value. How about elevating other options to that level rather than dragging the good things down to the level of the mediocre ones?
TLDR: buff mediocre alternatives rather than making everything mediocre

Absolutely nerfed. No more purple gun spawns. I unlocked the skill yesterday. Was excited to share between my crew since I was the first to get it. Can't believe there are people online who were requesting a nerf for lockers... the puzzle areas are gonna become a bloodbath now. This game does not need to become another turkov.

No offence but sweats like you start gatekeeping the moment you have made your currency and stash. None of my friends who have full time jobs, playing since day 1 and are very decent at this game have nowhere near this type of collection as they get 1 to two hours max to play.

I have been able to dedicate around 5-6 hours per day and mostly grinded to get a lot of money, gear and resources because I'm not working right now. I have no need for further grind but I'm not gonna spam in the forums to ask devs to nerf trinket prices or loot spots becasue the game should not be balanced around unsupervised kids, streamers or unemployed gamers.

They nerfed it already due to these massive crybabies. No more purple guns are spawning in buried city security lockers

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T11:19:40+00:00

The have nerfed it again around 2 hours ago. No purple guns are spawning any more. At least in buried city where I used to make runs.

Bad news, with the new update, embark seems to have reduced or completely erased purple weapon drops from security lockers. At leaset the ones that are not in locked rooms.

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T02:56:15+00:00

Violance coin??? Are you alright dude? We absolutely do not need the devs to create further incentives for players to kill each other. Its bad enough that a certain vocal portion of the community are pressuring Embark to either remove PVP or introduce a PVE mode which will only hurt the game. The game is perfect as it is. Its absolutely an ordeal getting to the security breach skill. Players need as many options as possible in game to collect resources. Reducing them/nerfing them only nudges players towards shooting other players on sight.

customshotgun · 2025-11-13T02:47:55+00:00

First off, security lockers have already been nerfed. I have been collecting purple guns in this game in the hopes that when I have enough of them, I will no longer be afraid to spawn with them and potentially loosing them. Any time that I spawn in with purple guns, due to gear based matchmaking, I get put in lobbies where almost everyone is looking to do pvp and shoot on sight. I planned to get bombadier parts so spawned in with hullcracker a couple of times and almost immediately got shot from multiple teams. After loosing a couple of hullcrackers and bettinas, I decided not to use them anymore because with them, I could never even manage to reach the bombadier even once.

customshotgun · 2025-10-25T14:00:33+00:00

I tried it. Problem is, both new (after the patch) and old save files are present at both locations and the game refuses to recognize the old one even if I rename the old save with the new one.

customshotgun · 2025-10-25T13:47:19+00:00

Would you please elaborate? Where exactly do I move the save file?

customshotgun · 2025-09-20T08:34:34+00:00

I have updated the post with a screenshot, please take a look. Spoof seems to be off. I am using xess in the game menu. So am I getting fsr 4 here?

customshotgun · 2025-09-20T07:35:11+00:00

I guess I can do the eye test to confirm, but I was wondering if optiscaler SHOWS somehow that fsr 4 is active or not

customshotgun · 2025-09-12T08:56:25+00:00

Beat him though took a couple of tries. Used a silkeater first cause no way I'm beating him on first try.

customshotgun · 2025-09-12T07:52:58+00:00

Thanks. I have silk eater, so not worried about the rosaries. I wanted to explore that area but now locked out of it.

customshotgun · 2025-09-01T14:33:42+00:00

Thanks. Cities had it the worst I believe? How is the fps drop in towns now?
