You say that like it's suppose to be sarcastic or something, but everyone expects this. That's how games with loot progression work and I'm fine with it, as are most people I'd wager.Originally Posted by SanaMinatozaki- Go to original post
I agree, and on top of that, you have the entire duration of a season to theoretically prepare for the following season.Originally Posted by Egotistic_Ez Go to original post
When Season 2 launched today, I'd saved up a little over 17000 Steel and 12 Scavenger crates specifically to get my gear maxed out, in a way that complimented my playstyle. And I had more than enough Steel leftover to get the new Bats effect.
Y'know, It's people like you that make me ashamed to be a gamer.Originally Posted by Axel_Moore Go to original post
Every man and woman who wakes up every morning, Monday through Friday, to go to work at Ubisoft, sit at their desk all day. Some make new sword blades, work on maps. Others code, relentlessly pouring through millions of lines of code, trying to find places to improve, fix bugs and glitches, work on connectivety, making the game more stable.
Some of them get paid to read through comments like yours, and give us direct feedback, or send our thoughts directly to the developers.
All these people work so very hard, to make the best game they can, which isn't as easy a task as some of you make it out to be.
And they do it all despite you taking the time to call them bastards, just for trying to make a good game.
They completely trashed the gear system that used steel which is bought with real currency so trashed our investment so that we spend more.Originally Posted by Tundra 793 Go to original post
Bastards.
Steel can be earned in game, for free. Those 17000 Steel I saved up? All earned in game, all it cost was time.Originally Posted by Prophet Filth Go to original post
I don't begrudge anyone buying Steel packs to make up for time they can't spend grinding, I've purchased a few myself, usually reserved for an Outfit, or Emotes.
The terms of buying Steel are clear. The means to earn Steel are clear. What Steel can buy you is clear. You have all the relevant information available to decide if It's worth the money to purchase Steel packs.
When you find that it isn't, that's your fault, not Ubisoft's.
What do you need gear for? I haven't upgraded anything and have been sitting pretty with a mid 80's gear score and the game has felt fine. The only advantage to a high gear score is that you can pop revenge like skittles and ruin the experience for everyone.
In the past, 108's annoy me more than anything else in elimination, because they always pop their revenge in 1v1's because that's the only way they can win (sometimes it still doesn't even help).
actual experience is worth far more than gear score. In other words: git gud.
This is not a discussion about whether skill or gear makes you a better player. Skill outweighs gear every time obviously. However, some people, who like to make multiple characters and outfit them, who cant grind steel for hours a day to gear out every character, buy steel to upgrade their gear based on the PRIOR gear system. That gear system has been removed, destroying the investment which was made with real money. It feels like a scam, since there is absolutely NO value to the gear which was bought using steel which was bought with real money.
This is so incredibly stupid.
What I did: Destroying everything except current equip. Since then collecting new stuff of new rarity and totally enjoying it. Well, armor redesign is pathetic, but the weapons are nice.
So weird people always demand instant gratification. So weird people blow money for .. skipping what is fun? You could have given those bucks to some charity organization, would have been better spend.
