Very happy for the patch, but did I miss something? It says over 200 issues have been addressed, yet there are only about 45 on the list. Isn't the point of patch notes to give the community a complete picture of things?

Don't read this in a bad way please, I love the game....this patch/info post doesn't make sense is all, from what is claimed.

Yes, i realized that.
Those are only small bug fixes, nothing related to game performance.
So network issues and all that crashes will still exist!
So we have to wait for another "fix"?
So, before that "fix" we are back to square one?!

[pereiradk]

Waiting a week to wipe my character? WTF. I'm broke and only have a knife. How am I supposed to take out the NPCs?

Many of what you listed are complex issues that take time to fix, There is no easy and quick band aid BUT we are working on getting all the major issues sorted as fast as possible

I really just want a way to adjust my ads sensitivity (per zoom but will take anything). This game doesnt take into account the differences with sensitivity between zoom strength. Most games have a scaling system so when you use a sight with a 1x-4x-8x and so on, they will all feel the same without needing to adjust them individually. Then add a system to adjust them separately if you want to (which i usually dont cause i want them all to be the same) I dont like using scopes with more than 1 strength cause they vary too much from one to the other. If we cant get a way to adjust all of them, they should at least scale properly between varying zoom strengths. I hope you guys are aware of this and are preparing a solution. It is a necessity in an FPS.

AGREE!
we cant have one setting for all scopes!

A nice start in the right direction. Keep it up!

Why 1 week for character wipes though? Why even locking players to a single faction at all? Just let players have several characters with separate progression. I do hope there will be a good reason in the future for locking players to a faction, but even then it is an outdated game design from 2000th-era MMOs.

I can understand the one week limitation. Stops people from wiping every few hours after doing their starter area missions for an easy 70k or so plus selling DLC gear and then passing it to a friend, wiping, and doing it again.

I'm new to these games and I didn't think of that. Overall though I think the game is early enough and buggy enough that they have to be mindful of how their issues effect the economy as well. The post patch issue today of not being able to loot your corpse has been super costly to me and many people in PvE servers. I mean they could send everyone out a tricked tier 3 kit for the troubles and I bet people still would be way lower than everything they lost. So it's a tricky balancing act overall. That's why I'm not even concerned with people dropping people items and whatnot as it's kinda offsetting a lot of the unintended losses affecting everyone. Time will tell if 1x weekly is a good move or not. Hopefully it is but they have to put out a hot fix ASAP or it's too expensive to risk going out on simple tasks as I found out today losing back to back full kits.

Since this patch, I've died twice and been unable to recover my stuff from my body. I've lost two of my favorite guns! This is so frustrating!

>[FIXED] An issue where some vegetation wouldn't make any rustle sounds when players walked through it

Vegetation should also make a sound and move if a player is in a bush and leans out of the vegetation to take a clear shot free of anything blocking their view .

>[FIXED] An issue where AI could disappear near bushes or water in towns

I swear I saw a AI do just that with a bush in the latest update :-/

>[FIXED] An issue where AI could disappear near bushes or water in towns
Had AI disappearing while aiming through a 4x scope… without the scope, the NPC was back.

Today I stopped playing, because I wasn‘t able to loot my dead body twice while doing tasks for the vendors on a pve server. Lost all my best gear, as I thought it was maybe a coincidence. Lesson learned…I’ll do it like rambo, from now on. From Zero to Hero, starting with a simple gun and no gear, atall.

Waiting a week when I die to a server crash? No thanks. Congrats MADFINGER, you guys are living up to your old reputation of being complete dirtbags.

[Jonathan J. O'Neill]

What do you mean waiting a week when you die? It's a week between character wipes from the main menu.

its me or the game is running worse ?

Upgrade toaster scrub and git gud! Like you like to tell it to other people so much!

1 week to wipe is absurd, friend accidentally chose wrong faction and has decided to refund rather than wait a week to play
