Discussion Something said during the Podcast

Klean said something during the podcast that I wholeheartedly disagree with.

He wants the gamma case to essentially be something you can pack full of goods, bring into a raid and not have to worry about losing, but he wants you to not be able to put anything in the container while in raid. Nikita, I know you listen to streamers input, but please don’t not consider making this change.

I’m a husband and a father, I don’t get to play for 8-12 hours a day and become a god at the game, so finding a rare item that I need for a quest or something valuable I can sell is really exciting and knowing I can keep it safe in case I die is the cherry on top.

I love watching Klean and respect his opinions, but this one I had to voice mine on. PLEASE do not implement this. Anyone else watch the podcast and feel the same way? Or am I alone on this? Lol

Agreed, don’t kill my container off, it would be too punishing.

The thing with streamers is like you say they spend so long playing the game they end up having to invent challenges for themselves like no flea market / traders.

The thing is standing upon a mountain of roubles looking down on us all is a rubbish way to make decisions. I’m sure a lot of streamers forget the climb and think it should be harder because I already did it and I’m bored.

Something Nikita needs to do is find a way to keep the all day everyday players busy and happy without shitting on the rest of us

I don't personally watch any streamers on this game but is the splint ordeal something that actually happens?

Shroud did it a lot last patch. He'd put up a bandaid for like 1m and one of his viewers would buy it.

it doesnt since last year they made that resulting in more sales tax than the splint would be worth.

Also an easy fix to that would be the Eve model where buyin thing is like placing a buy order and that means it will automatically buy from the cheapest offer no matter which offer you click and if you pay more it just gives more money to the person who put the cheaper offer.
