Don't remove controllers.

[Nekrit]

Dont remove controllers and pander to the whiny people. Its fine as it is.

i'm max level and do almost all content and still have over 150+ controllers and the mods and stuff i need for my build.

what are you guys doing that uses so many controllers?!?!

[Cuddleshanks]

Having controllers or not having controllers doesn't bother me either way.

What does bother me is the implementation in regards to phases.

Because you don't want to use controllers before you can get legendary mods, you end up saving all of them until end game. Being able to use controllers on normal mode bosses ends up being a trap for new players.

Normal mode bosses shouldn't require controllers since most/all of those drops don't matter anyway.

Controllers are used as an end-game currency. They should only be able to be used on end-game bosses.

most of these cry babies don't get accessories or do tasks I think.

I don't understand, why is removing Controller affecting you? Apparently you don't have the problem many of us running out of controller. I have no life, i have a passive incomes, i play games all day, i love this game but the controller is just another blocker for me and others to enjoy more of this game. Just give me a good reason why grinder couldn't grind lol, and why is that beneficial for yourself and the game.

I have no clue why removing controllers is affecting people so much that they ask to NOT remove them. It's actually making me laugh. I tried to have a discussion the other day about removing controllers without even crying, just discussing and they instantly said cry baby.

It's funny because they're the ones crying about us asking to remove them yet here we are. They're also ones who would never say this kind of stuff to anyone's face and hide in the comfort of their own home, behind the comfort of anonymity saying this stuff. But hey whatever makes them feel better.

I have yet to see an answer to my question.

What actual negative side effect does it have on the game if controllers would be removed?

All I've seen is an emotional response of 'hurr durr people complain too much' and not an objective one about the ACTUAL in game mechanics.

Funny also is if it was something they wanted changed they would cry just as much.

Hilarious.

they SHOULD NOT! remove them just make accesses to them a bit better as the 3 a day from events is stupid IMO

Games got more gates than a cattle farm.

Dont remove them. I like having all the timegates in the game that make me uninstall at the end of season 1. Keep the controllers so only the casuals who barely game will play and keep your game "alive". Im sure once human doesnt need sweats to stay alive like every single other game out there.

Had 212 or so left at the beginning of this evening. Did some grinding for stardust source (for the first time since I started playing on release) and now I still got around 190 or so left. Really dunno what to do with those things except hoard them. But I'm also the kind of person who's fully subscribed to the Cyberpunk credo of "style before function" and thus, I'm choosing my weapons and armor based on how cool they are, not how useful. ;)

The brainrot among he player base of this game is real... ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ remove controllers and let farmers farm... I'm in phase 4 waiting phase 5 and I'm unable to farm mods for my second build appart from 3 poor controllers a day...So waht am i supposed to do ? lauch the game and wait in base? no i log in barely 5min a day for my acid farm the log out... And i belive a LOT of ppl do the same cause THERE IS NOTHING TO DO IF YOU REMOVE THE ABLITY TO FARM ...Unless your a noob playing 1 build for all your season and having the best of luck getting all your BIS mods before phase 4 and prowars (so your not useless)

Yeah, it's a bit strange. I still have a little over 100 controllers and I'm pretty sure I had every mod in the game multiple times over until I dismantled half of them, and still have many more. I mentioned it in another thread, but my guess would be that they're min-maxing to the very minute tedium and going for every .0001% advantage.

Perhaps if someone could clearly explain the purpose of controllers (because even I struggle to come up with a defining answer despite my bewilderment at other's insane addiction issues), then it would clear up the confusion.

Here is a use for controllers, Some people have just but one arm and or hand. There are controllers out there that make it easy for people to play games with just but one hand or arm.

Some of those with this resolve are veterans.

Also, You can lean back in your chair with a controller and play. Pulling a mouse and keyboard that far back sometimes just isn't comfy. Many reasons.

Edited (My comment is dumb and null because i thought they were actually talking about physical controllers My Bad.)

A lot of players in my server are asking to buy gravel / rubber.

I think there are a lot of players who just don't play, or are somehow playing the game completely wrong.

No, you have basic versions of mods for your build with random rolls. A LOT of power comes from proper rolled mods. But mods with high value rolls start dropping only in pro mode silos/monoliths. and Even then it's not the best rolled ones, once you have a lot of high quality mods you can convert them to even higher quality multiple times over.
But what happens is either people waste bunch of controllers on trash quality mods in normal/hard modes and then they barely have any controllers when good stuff starts dropping or they barely play till phase 4 or whenever Pro mode content opens up in scenario they are in and then go all sweaty last 2 weeks of scenario, because using controllers earlier was simply a waste. Or just find something else to play before phase 4 drops and don't even finish scenario at all. All situations are bad for the game.
Either pro dungeons should be opened from phase 1 for people who want to and can handle the challenge or controllers should come in 3 tiers, separate for all 3 difficulties so you don't feel like wasting it when used in normal/hard mode content. Or simply removed.
