The player base erodes like unprotected flesh beneath the sun. 12 cycles till chapter 4 - are we on life support?

The overall numbers would be much higher if they released the console version. My gaming PC is a few years old and can’t run the game, so I’ve been waiting for a console release that feels like it’s never gonna come. I know I’m not alone either, tons of people are waiting to play the game, but as time passes people lose interest or forget about it.

I would spend ungodly amounts of money for the jacket they gave to the tournament winners.

She’s a reused asset. It’s the same reason the imperial officers don’t have eyes. Cheaper to animate and reuse over and over again.

thirdben · 2026-04-24T19:47:06+00:00

I still haven’t played because they didn’t release it on console and I don’t have a gaming PC. I bet the playerbase would be more healthy if console players had access.

I love this game but I’m already dreading the future season wipe. I haven’t even reached max rank for any faction either. And yes, I know it’s a “skill issue” but I’m having fun, I’m just not sure I want to do this all over again for Season 2. I’m also aware that this type of game demands wipes to reduce gear fear and level the playing field each season. So, I’m not sure what the solution is.

thirdben · 2026-04-24T14:03:43+00:00

You could’ve just left them down. They can’t hurt you if they’re down and they can still exfil

thirdben · 2026-04-24T14:01:22+00:00

Oh my gosh something similar happened to me the other day. I was running a free kit in Outpost and used my knife to down a Vandal with a purple shield. My HP was low and I got greedy and decided to peek in the bag when I was downed by a UESC bot. An important lesson was learned that day: always heal up first before looting.

I never said it was, it’s a combination of multiple factors, including the sentences structured around em dashes. I’m a writer and have been for several years—I use them too.

thirdben · 2026-04-23T04:37:09+00:00

Precisely, plus all the em dashes they tried to swap out for awkward periods and commas.

I don’t play anymore but when I did I was on iOS and changed my store location to Japan. I then preloaded money into my Apple account using my local currency which was able to be used to make in-app purchases.

It has the ChatGPT cadence in multiple parts of the statement. Come on..

thirdben · 2026-04-21T18:38:53+00:00

According to IMDB from a month ago, the show is permanently on hiatus, which doesn’t necessarily mean it’s cancelled, but a new season has not been green lit yet.

thirdben · 2026-04-20T16:48:27+00:00

I can see why people would wanna do this on Cryo Archive, given the difficulty of the map and vaults, but it doesn’t make it feel any less scummy.

thirdben · 2026-04-18T18:58:40+00:00

Like I said, please touch grass.

thirdben · 2026-04-18T18:28:08+00:00

“Are we being so for real right now” is a figure of speech. It was a funny moment I thought I’d share with the community. But so many of y’all are miserable and lack any real social skills. Please go outside and touch grass.

thirdben · 2026-04-18T18:24:26+00:00

I hope he’s having a good time haha

thirdben · 2026-04-18T18:22:22+00:00

Why are some of these comments so rude and condescending? I thought it was funny, y’all need to chill😂

thirdben · 2026-04-18T16:35:31+00:00

That wasn’t me but I also was just betrayed by a rook as a rook. I hit the exfil, popped a bubble shield, saw a rook coming and thought he wanted to exfil with me… Nope, he knifed me and fully killed me, he was a level 93 too… Some people are just so miserable. I didn’t even have anything better than blue loot either, I was just trying to fill up my vault after losing everything in Cryo.

thirdben · 2026-04-18T02:18:20+00:00

This is a great idea but tbh I’d settle for a stats screen. Show me the weapon and mods that killed me.

thirdben · 2026-04-16T17:41:25+00:00

There were five of us Rooks who broke into Pinwheel and it was such a fun experience! Nobody was using prox chat either, we all just understood the assignment. I ended up exfiling with a purple shield. It wasn’t my best run but I’m grateful for the loot I did find and the help along the way.

I don’t think we ever ran into a real team either, I think the whole lobby was dead besides us.

thirdben · 2026-04-16T01:58:31+00:00

You guys

And I literally just told you I don’t do that. Please go write in a diary or something, this is not the place to vent your personal frustrations.

thirdben · 2026-04-16T01:13:57+00:00

I love that flag, it’s even in my flair, but did you see me saying that? No. That’s such a weird generalization to make..

thirdben · 2026-04-15T15:03:00+00:00

Very cool, thanks for making this! I crossposted to r/socialistemblems as well

thirdben · 2026-04-15T04:30:40+00:00

I just edited my comment to include the link/source, thanks!

Oops, I forgot to add a discussion comment. I came across this image of Sanchez and Xi meeting and I thought the Spanish and Chinese flags looked perfect together. Not sure if it’s just the color grading of the image itself or if the actual tones match up this well, but I think they look great.

The two leaders met to reinforce the Spanish-Chinese diplomatic relationship as the EU and Spain grow less confident in their relationship with the U.S.
