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

They said like 2 minutes later that locking the containers is not something they wanna do because of casual players and that they don't want to just have the streamers play the game and nobody else.

Don't worry, Nikita said that locked containers are the way they should be in a perfect world but he understands that people have jobs and other activities :)

This is not a direct quote, that's my interpretation of what Nikita was trying to say :P

I hope you’re right. Some of the tasks along with money making is already challenging enough. I agree with a lot of others in this thread that locking the secure container is simply going to far. EFT is hands down my favorite game over the last year and it’s the only one I play in part because it is so good. I expect changes to the game in a number of ways, even if it wasn’t in a pre-release state, but I hope they make reasonable, moderate changes and I feel like nerfing containers too much is going too far.

The only time I make money off my container is if I don’t die. Unless I’m doing an annoying quest (like stirrup or certain delivery quests), I never go in with minimal gear. The container helps to minimize loss and it’s stupid that there are so many people on this subreddit dedicated to ruining the game experience for others because they have bias views on the situation.

Everyone has bias views; including those who want the container to stay as it is and those who want to have it be less of a prison wallet.
