    UBI-DEV-GODS please answer me. just a yes or no

    I have posted here and reddit.
    I get the same answer.
    "Its bugged. pay no attention to it."

    Can DEVS please confirm or deny that? I am not asking for a high priority fix, just a concrete answer so I don't continue to bang my head against a wall for no reason.

    The in game STATS screen. Where you can see your build and all the variables, and then compare them to your saved loadout.....IS IT WACK?
    OR
    am I just not understanding what is happening?

    I am not even to lvl 30 yet, because I love the game and want to stretch the experience, but I still like to invest time into comparing builds and gear.

    The only real way for me to do that is with that screen.

    Half the time it works like I would expect and half the time it comes up with CRAZY differences.
    If I only change one gear item, I would go from 140% headshot damage to 20% headshot damage, even though my gear had no headshot damage, weapon damage, stability, accuracy, crit chance or damage, etc buffs or nerfs on either piece of gear.

    I know you will ask for a video and I am going to start documenting everytime it happens going forward, but can you just tell me:

    1. Is it bugged?
    2. Does it reflect in game stats?
    3. Is the inventory screen correct?
    4. does IT reflect in game stats?
    5. Should I ignore all of it and just go with what feels good in game?
    6. If it is bugged are you addressing it?


    Given that this is an RPG and builds are such a big part, it just seems that this screen should be a main concern and a core feature.

    I am a PVE player mainly, but want to try and play PVP in The Div 2
    I want to join a clan now that system is included
    I am the mainstream player who you want to draw into the game more, not a hardcore PVP competitive player.
    THE STATUS OF THIS FEATURE IS PREVENTING THAT.

    Ok so that is the main question.

    Here are some others.

    Why so secrative about the functions of the game? I know I am a dinosaur that remembers when games came with 50 page manuals explaining every aspect of the game and now we have none, but with a game so based on stats....wouldn't it help your players to understand what does what? Why do I have to scour the internet for information like what WEAPON HANDLING actually does? Can't you complile a list of what each attribute does and post it online on your site? It would just make it so much more enjoyable to actually know.

    Is there really unpublished attribute BUFF caps? If I fill my Stability bar am I wasting my time? If so that would really be a betrayal of our trust. I am not a Division expert, streamer, youtube guy. I don't have time to spend in the shooting range or with a buddy testing weapons for hours. What is on the screen should be accurate.
    My gaming time is precious and inventory management simulator is not the game I signed up for. Maybe what I read isn't accurate or maybe I just don't understand correctly, but if there are attribute caps, you should tell us.

    Both Div1 and Div2 are awesome. Div2 is so much better for solo players, I can't thank you enough.
    I love both games and tell everyone I can about them.
    My questions are meant in the best possible intent. Not whining or dismissing the game. These are just important concepts to the way I play the game.
    Thanks for listening to the community.

    another example of lack of info is an explanation for the HDR settings. What do they do? Do they do things? Let's Find Out!

    Just thought of another one.
    I got a SMG with a talent that is something like "when holstered gives all weapons a weapon handling bonus appropriate for this weapon class" (paraphrasing here)
    What does that mean?
    Do different weapons get different bonuses when using a mod that boosts weapon handling? Can we know the details of that?

    Hello, Less_Than. I certainly understand the desire for more information on the stats in the game. Please note, though, that this technical forum is for technical issues specifically. Do you want me to move this thread to the general forums? That is where feedback like this is usually watched for.

    Yeah I guess I got a little long winded for a technical issue.
    Move it I guess, but the root question is a technical issue....is the stat screen bugged?

    Anywhere I can get some info would be great.

    thanks
