    Time for a Break

    So reflecting on things: after 2300 hrs in game and SHD 1780

    TU10 objectives

    Bring back the fun - Fail
    Fix Loot - Fail
    Make Agents feel powerful - Fail

    TU- 11
    Fix Loot - Fail
    Summit - 100 floors of highly re playable content - Fail for the following points imo,
    1. Forced directives
    2. Forced difficulty levels
    3. only 20% chance of component drop for exotic chest
    4. Numerous issues around number of objective types and spawn points, floor templates, lack of imagination. It is obvious this mode was rushed from start to finish and does nothing to satisfy peoples hunger for new content in this game.

    Balancing - Is the biggest concern - Massive you cant seriously expect to balance a game properly by tinkering around the edges with a buff here and a nerf there when the core mechanics of this game are flawed and broken. The biggest of which is the massive imbalance between AI health/armour pools, our own and the amount of damage we take in such a short space of time. This impacts the new weapons and GS recently introduced as "run n gun " .....bit hard to run n gun in this game ....solo .... in anything above challenging and even then is quite dicey.

    Not that im a big PvP player, but this has been totally neglected since redstorm left and is in a worse state than PVE.
    5. Boring, boring, and boring

    Bugs, bugs and more bugs, every season, same thing happens missions break, cut and paste code not updated correctly, with little no attention to detail or care for that matter.

    New Exotics and Gear sets, implemented to encourage run and gun.....right..... in a game where its a cover based shooter and armour is stripped off you in milliseconds of leaving cover. Most if not all these weapons and and Gear are useless in any content above challenging.

    Legendary mission mechanics also appear to have changed, drone spam is horrendous and now appears to bypass deployed skills and go straight for the agent, never had a problem running Legendaries previous ...until after TU11.

    Basically all this adds up to is im taking a break from this game until this game gets its 1.8 patch that D1 got.

    Its lost its fun factor for me and is now more of a chore than anything, I play games to relax and have fun, not get ****** at every turn by the narcissistic devs at Massive that refuse compromise anything but their way or the highway mentality....they did it in D1 it didnt work and they realized too late. They have done it again in D2.

    Developers have continually failed to listen to its player base both in comment from Live game and PTS. Personally i have lost faith in Massive and their ability to deliver what I and I suspect many in the community want from this game.

    Take care Agents
    MASSIVE has gone Rogue on us and has been playing double agent for some time

    These is the kind of concerns they need to address.
    No doubt, we'll have another "show your stupid pet" and content creator picture show in this weeks SotG.

    Honestly the speed in which I die, versus how long it takes to kill an enemy in some heroic scenarios, and literally every legendary one is absurd.
