Why did they mess with grenades and health items?

[Ragelabs]

I'm not enjoying the new method for grenades or health items. I enjoyed the old system where you can craft them, disassemble them, buy and sell them, and have a weight factor to carry them all.

Why a start limit to 2 grenades? I have to use a perk point to be able to carry 3 grenades?
This recharge timer for grenades to magically appear is messed.

Just my opinion, I hope everyone is enjoying their day.
Be well!

I started using grenades after this change.

Last update, i was not able to disassemble them, it just didt worked half the time, and no i didt use any mods.

No one really used grenades unless you specifically build for it BECAUSE you had to craft/buy them. It's not a good use of resources when you need those same resources to upgrade your gear.

I think it was a response to the fact that, in 1.6, by level 20 you had effectively infinite grenades and health due to the crafting system if you made any effort at all. I don't think I ever had less than 200 of either after I started act 2.
Now you do still have unlimited items, I suppose, but there's some limitations so you can't just spam them infinitely like you could before.

Anything could be OP before 2.0 if used properly.. that's what made the game fun! Now it's boring and standard.

Alot of things were OP, the longer you look back the more OP things were. Like most trees were nerfed over the games life span. One could say things were over nerfed.

So basically Healing Mk items can't be crafted anymore or bought ? I've gone to the Medical places & they don't even show them for sale ( the Higher types ), i only see the normal ones that one starts off with ( 3 quantity ) do they auto regen on their own?

Just wondering if i'll have to play the game till the end with just 3 crappy healing Mk's...........

You have to level up, and then i'm pretty sure the vendors get high "level" stock. It works like that with ripperdocs.

level 15 atm & they still show junk stuff & no meds, but i haven't done the part were you have to do you know what & craw after you know what, so maybe that plays a factor...

no clue, but i do agree that med shops are pointless now. Atleast ripper docs shops gets better grade over time.

Well about to grind & find out if level plays a factor with stuff in stores ( Still confused with Cyber Upgrades now than i was before it was changed ).

Ohh btw when you go to a Crime thingy & start to kill the Gang members in order to complete it, The Cops start going after you also. And only way to get them off your back is to go into a Store/Shop.... >_>
