Nice. DDG did a great job with this one.

I wonder what is the time frame for 0.2 to be finished.

sounds good think he mentioned that there will be new tasks to complete also

Would be nice if there was a some kind of reward for completing all the tasks before wipe.

Maybe a title or apparel?

People may get an early access tag once the game is released ? I have seen this sort of thing done before. Don't think there will be anything like that before release

Would be nice if you kept the upgraded lockbox upon wipe. And maybe anything you put inside.

or $1.8 million?

can o worms

I say this with humility as I do enjoy the game and want it to be very successful. However I see this studio starting to do some tactics that another project I follow closely has done and it's really gonna bring more heat in the end. It's this overly positive reframing of everything going on and even making negatives sound positive or very time limited. I do understand the response of "so you want them just just say bad things" and that of course isn't my intention or suggestion. It's just that it comes off very sterile, highly corporate and falls flat; at least for me. I also don't like when they overly explain their studio size and lack of resources as that falls flat as well. When you sell near a million copies in a month of early access with editions going up over 100USD then it really comes across as a studio overly conserving money by not hiring adequate staff. This comes across as insecure and overly trying to keep the money in house at this stage of the game and not building out the studio for a true AAA launch. This game is being advertised explicitly as a AAA to AAAA game on pricing alone. That is ultimately what decides what level of expectation the consumer should expect. Money talks all the way and it's time for studios to actually invest in delivering AAA gaming experiences or just continue to be short term executive and investor money printing machines that screw the customers and every employee and developer by constantly having them at risk of layoffs.

There is some truth in there, but they do have job postings for numerous additions to their staff, so its not like they are not looking to add more people. Like everyone these days skilled workers are not as easy to find.

honestly I just want the AI to stop being able to perfectly shoot through bushes and stuff where they have zero line of sight -.- in a game centered in a jungle , that pretty much kills any desire to engage in any kind of foliage areas

what is AAA or AAAA pricing for gaming ?

CoD ? $109 for the base game here or $149 for the upgraded version.
for a game that gets replaced every year, in fact this will be their second version this year.

GZW cost $35 here not sure what your point is ?

You read my mind. This is exactly what I would do. lol

I could bring most of the keys in that belt as you can fit every current key in seven cases, IIRC. So I'd have to decide what to leave behind. Probably the starter town keys as I'd choose a new faction.

I dont know if it will last, but you realise you can stack belt 3s ? because they take up only 3 slots and give 4, you can put a belt 3 inside a belt 3, and inside that belt 3 there can be another belt 3 and so on.
so the bottom layer can have 2 double slot keyrings, then each layer above that can have 1 1 slot keyring so you could take every key you want with enough belt 3s
I have been carrying about tiger bay, FN and MS full keys lately and still have room for quest items and the big med bag. it adds to your weight as it should, but doesnt seem to have a limit currently.

does the game function at all with controller ?
