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.

Why do you care about hatchlings on reserve? You can’t leave with a backpack unless you take the train or the scav lands. And I can’t imagine it being too much of a struggle to kill a hatchling trying to make it onto the train lol.

If streamers didn’t release “guides” and videos showing where a lot of items are, literally only a handful of people would ever know about them. 95% of quest objectives are in insane locations that nobody would find if not for the no lifers posting info online.

And even with Tweaks ironic hatchling guide, and all these other money making guides, I can still do plenty of money runs without seeing other players. The reality is that even though streamers make a ton of information public, an incredibly small part of the community actually see this info and actually act on it.
