Hello All,
I want to start off by saying how much I thoroughly enjoy this game. I'm gotten all of the collectibles, taken level 30 and then 50 in DZ. I have done every daily hard and challenging since 3/9 and I am about 5% away from taking a platinum trophy. I love all of the content that is in the base game and love the fact that even more content is going to be released for all players, not just the season pass holders, starting next month (good touch Ubi). However there are a few things that don't make sense to me from a game design aspect which I will explain below.
1: Cash
We have no current use for it, I am sitting on near a million dollars and have nothing useful to spend it on. Now I know we could just buy purples from the store and break them down but if that was already the predetermined course of action for cash at the end game level why not just let us buy crafting materials outright. It is a pain to upgrade materials if you have a lot. Which brings me to my next point. Again I don't want this to come off rant like, I really enjoy this game and want to see its fan base and in turn success grow.
2: Upgrading materials
Why wasn't there a craft all button made. It takes time to upgrade your materials from blue to yellow and depending on how many you have it can be a little annoying.
3: Dark Zone Currency
This pretty much goes hand in hand with regular cash at this point. Any items we buy in the Dark Zone are going to be level 30 power level so why waste our dark zone credits. Unless of course you buy things to break down but again, why not just give us the option of buying crafting materials directly to save us a few extra steps.
4: Dark Zone Vendor Phoenix Coin Vendor
Why are the items at this vendor level 30 power level. Just Why. It takes a bit of grinding to take level 50 in the DZ. At this point in time there is nothing worth buying in there to warrant taking level 50 in the DZ. Even the blueprints are level 30 power level. Again, Why.
5: Crafting Material Chests Inside Base of Operations
At level 30 there is literally no need for green crafting materials. It takes 25 green materials to make one yellow so I am just curious why the crafting chests in the base of operations gives us mainly (if only) greens. I have never gotten blue from them but others may have gotten lucky.
6: Checkpoints in Challenge Mode Missions
I don't know about the rest of you, but our group has been getting kicked from the game. Not often I might add, but often enough to make us fearful of it happening near the end of a challenge mode mission. Any chance we can get a checkpoint save system in there in case of a kick like that so. It could also somewhat stifle the issue of people kicking the party right at the end of a challenge mission as well.
I'm sorry if some of this stuff has already been brought up which I am sure it has. Just wanted to get some things out in the open that I have been thinking about the past few days. I hope we can talk about some of this stuff so I can get an idea of what the rest of the community thinks about these issues. I know they are small in comparison to some other issues like falling through the map and having enemies get stuck in doors halting mission progress but here's to the little things!
Thanks,
