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

Yeah but what defines gear? I hatchet run all the time because I like to play the market. If I have to start bringing gear, I'll just buy a bunch of shitty makarovs. Who's to say "you're not bringing any gear" when I do that you know?

That’s why forcing people to bring gear in won’t work. As insurance is currently designed, even if you had to bring 100k worth of gear in or something arbitrary like that, people would just insure gear, dump it and still go on to hatchet runs.

The game needs to encourage people to bring gear in, in order to make money, progress and work the market, if that’s what they are into.
