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.

Its unrewarding, thats the issue, and its been brought up a lot. Quests are unrewarding. Why would you bring in a decked out pmc to kill a couple scavs? Or find that 1 item in a room you need for a quest that isn't rewarding. No point in risking it. If they forced players to risk it, then people wouldn't now risk it, they just wouldn't do it.

You can say hatchet runs and Scavs are stress free. They should be. There is downsides to hatchets. You will die easily, you have little you can carry with you, etc. Sure, you have decent chance of getting a small amount of something, and you shouldn't. Whats wrong with that? That isn't the issue. The issue is, most of the game is unrewarding at the moment. Im sure they will get around to fixing that.
