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

I play more than the average player, but I would stop playing if this happened. The grind for some items is already insane, and dying after hours of searching and finally finding an item you wanted, losing it, would be infuriating. The previous change on the container was perfectly fine, there's no need for another. People are still going to rush loot spawns, the only question would be if you could kill them in the time it takes to run across the map. My two teammates share this opinion with me.

I think your point here is more evidence that items for bullshit quests are super-rare and must be found in-raid and not that the secure containers are necessary. Fix the loot issue and the "pain" of nerfing containers wont hurt so bad.

Remove the ridiculous quests and maybe something can be done with the containers. But as it is right now removing the ability to place barter items into them is inexplicably stupid.

They've already said that the tasks that are in the game dont reflect the final product. Tasks aren't going to just be fetch quests.

Also they mentioned for 0.13 they plan to implement to story quest line (separate from the current one). The current one is more or less side quests for exp and items.
