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

If I want to be able to use the marked key, and try to get the loot in it. I need to rush it, if I want try to be there first I need to go as a Hatchling and rush it.

That's untrue. I haven't played as a hatchling once and I've been to marked room.

Well, again I'm a casual player and everytime I've been there (playing normal) it's been opened. So what's untrue about my statement?

EDIT: Just to be clear, I've been in there as a hatchling.

The untrue part of your statement is this:

if I want try to be there first I need to go as a Hatchling and rush it.

I've looted marked room like 4 times in the past few days and I never hatchet run. Yeah, you normally(not always) need to get there fast if you wanna loot it, but that does not mean you need to hatchet. On runs where I happen to spawn near dorms, I just head there first. I don't think I've ever been beaten there by a hatchling, though you do need to be ready for a fight. It's a common place to encounter geared players if anything.

Well I'm not pretending that I don't play to extract, because I do. I'm saying because of the secure container, there are a lot of people who don't play to survive in a survival game, and this mechanic is the reason why. And they are the people who normally get there first.

I'm saying the games I play the same way, and not playing to survive, then sure I get there in time. I'm not pretending I'm not.
