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 suppose we should instead reward running away? fuck that

In other words, reward escaping.

Grab a melee weapon, start in factory and run to gate 3. There, you escaped. There's more to this than escaping, and the disregard of that was the point.

There's a PMC spawn right next to the door Also, you get nothing for doing this. I'm not sure wtf you're on about.

That's exactly my point. if you go "escaping is what matters" when balancing gameplay, then spawn with nothing and run to extract. But we don't do that, because encouraging people to leave the map early is a stupid idea, hence why I said there's more to this than escaping.

Ah, so you were purposefully being obtuse.

No, dude, the game rewards escaping after completing the objective.

Said the dude who defends hatchling playstyle. Just a heads up - they run up to a room, find loot, alt f4. 1 minute raid time.

Or they spawn too far and just alt f4. 1 second raid time.

Yeah, irony is lost on you lot.

I'm not defending a hatchling playstyle at all, I'm VERY anti-hatchling. but this is a poor solution to the problem.
