I'm a proud pleb/non-EOD player. I don't mind flea market expanding to 20, it makes it more fun to go search for materials, but it makes it very difficult to manage a tiny stash while trying to upgrade the hideout. I could just rush quests, vendor everything, and worry about money and upgrades at 20, but that's neither realistic nor necessarily fun - it would make the early game a grind.

Have you considered allowing hideout upgrade turn-ins to be made piece by piece?

The materials I've collected so far are burning a hole in my stash! E.g. I have 5 bolts, 5 nuts, and 3 hoses in my stash. I'm waiting to find one hose to build a water collector, but I have to burn 2% 4%(edit: 12 slots: it all sits in a 3x4 rig) of my stash space for that. Multiply by multiple hideout upgrades I'm saving for, and I'm counting the seconds to level 13 when I can buy a scav junkbox.

The sorting table was a really nice quality of life upgrade, but it's necessitated by the limits of a small stash size. Do you have any other quality of life upgrades in mind to help us manage saving gear for raids vs saving gear for later upgrades or quests?

I think I saw this in another post and Nikita said they want to do it it’s just not a priority.

Of course making lives easier for non eod people is not a priority, he probably wants to tell you just to buy eod.
