As an avid PVP player who spends ~90% of their time in the DZ, I have noticed that the quality of loot found in the DZ is absolutely awful. Given that the DZ is meant to be the highest risk loot zone in the entire game, as you have to both farm the loot then successfully extract it, all while evading rogue agents, you would expect that the quality of the loot in the DZ would be on par if not better than an average heroic mission. However, this is not the case, as almost 80-90% of all loot dropped in the DZ has truly awful rolls, most of which are so bad that you would need to pour in far too many resources to make the item remotely usable.

Also, gear sets such as System Corruption or Yaahl Gear being DZ exclusive further adds to the problem, as system corruption pieces are impossible to find (I have found about 2 system corruption pieces over hundreds of hours in the DZ) and the pieces which do drop have awful rolls. Forcing players to wait for a system corruption/yaahl targeted loot DZ (Which may take weeks or months to rotate) and a Season 1 rerun in order to acquire pieces from a certain gear set seems incredibly counter intuitive.

I propose the following changes:

Hello,

this issue was bad but managable during levelling and at level 30. At WT5 I could at least immediately see a gear score of an item. But now at 40 it is unbearable for me. It is all just orange or purple level 40.
I don't know what gear is rewarded for playing missions at several more difficult variants.
Recalibration library - I don't know whether to try and fill it. Too many talents that are unsharable! between different weapon types. And that are only talents, not talking about attributes...
Not sure what I should do. I cannot invest several more hundreds or thousands hours in the game.

The after action reports you get when completing a mission have some suspect stats... are these reports considered fairly accurate? Is there a resource somewhere that explains all these calculations?

For example, most of the time, my actual crit % and crit damage is reported as around 40% and 50% yet my crit chance is 60% and my crit damage is 130%. So what are these numbers representing?

Also, I run a drone and my brother runs a turret, and we both use them about the same amount - I have no skill tiers, he has 1 skill tier - yet my skill damage was higher than him at the end of the mission. The turret should be doing more damage than the drone, especially with a skill tier... any possible explanations?

Finally, does anyone know if explosive seeker mines are added to explosive damage, skill damage or both?

Hello.
I spent about 2 hours to get that project done. But it is not possible to turn it in... 😞
There is an exclamation mark next to BoO's officer but the project's rewards cannot be claimed.

Crashes to desktop came back after the latest patch.
Does game support aware of this?

Hear me out, at the start of the game we should be given some pretty decent standard issue SHD gear, skill, and weapons. You stashed this gear beforehand and during character creation you should be able to choose your basic class for the beginning of the game.

In the city, you would find some worse gear in places like; the open world, low level missions, CPs or what have you. You would be able to find better gear, with more complex talents and things, in higher level missions and towards the end of restoring order to the city.

i dunno, just a thought

Let's call it an "update", in case you didn't notice what's happening with your game lately. You know, it's impossible not to notice, but let's use some suspension of disbelief because the alternative is that you don't give a crap about this game anymore.

So, the update is that the game CRASHES... A LOT... and it's getting worse.

Basically, any client update or server maintenance made things incrementally worse. I personally went from not having almost any problem in Feb to a mandatory 2-3 crashes every playing session now (2 hours on average). The only positive (if we can call it that) is that now the error seems to be always the same (the infamous "suspended" state and its error code), reported by many players with various configurations and at different stages in the game. Just check your forum and you'll see all the detailed reports. It's happening while playing, while browsing the inventory, in the loading screen... totally random. And it's not related to players' hardware or software.

Furthermore, since the start of this season, our client version is "unofficial", whatever that means. Needles to say, we never got a changelog for that last client "update", besides breaking the game on consoles.

It's baffling how a game could get worse and worse over time. How is that even possible?! What the heck is happening?

Now you are telling us this: "This additional time will allow our passionate development team to deliver the best quality for this new content. Of course, we will in the meantime continue to support the game and work on most pressing live issues."
Great words. What about actually doinf something?

When will the crashes be fixed, and perhaps some of the glaring issues that are year-old now???

I just noticed I don't have the blueprint for the Sokolov backpack. Is this just a random drop, or is it linked to some project I've managed to miss the past two years?
