Wouldn't it make much more sense that everyone could use all guns, but eventually strong guys would prefer big guns, accurate guys would prefer long range rifles, agile guys would like to use pistols or smgs and energy weapons would be just rare post-war artefacts?
trolling ,dude u dont know how much is 2x2 go back to school, on top of that u are making stupid mistakes and calling other idiots at the same time, go back re read the topic and just... srsly just go back to school
dude go play some pvp, already people are using ca bh and miniguns, plasma nades and all max tier weapons, u had ur dream of making them "rare" as i said people already have floors full of them as long as they have no life ..
Making crafting more time consuming is not solving the problem
If you want to make enemies, try to change something.
This game does not tend to the casual player. Plain and simple...
It sometimes takes hours to create a weapon that can be easily EASILY lost. So almost instantly when the casual gamer finds this out, they will go play another game that "tends" to the casual playstyle. The current crafting state, I hope to GOD, is not even close to final. It's a bad system as is. Cooldowns should not exist for crafting, only FA and a few others. Weakened? Are you kidding me 5 mins? Try 2 minutes.
And if you think people will just level up like crazy with no timeouts, well then lower the exp for craftables. Hunt and explore for exp. Trust me it's much more fun then click click crafting.
Crafting is boring as hell. Whoever thinks it is fun, please come forward and explain. Is it rewarding? Sure is, but you quickly timeout and have to go do something else. Hopefully you just crafted ammo to go out and hunt and wait for crafting timeouts to cooldown or you're loggin off for a bit if you have no friends. It's such a repetative system it's not even funny.
Also, the deterioration rate is dumb. Armor and weapons deteriorate at an incredibly high rate IMO. It's like 1% each shot. Wow. Make things last longer so we dont have to create 25 guns to get 1 level.
I am in a faction so I have friends. Trying to speak for people who come into the game w/o a faction and not knowing anybody.
About cooldowns - you can lower them as long as you lower the exp gained. No harm done there. Just less time to wait...which is what we all love I guess?
I don't understand the issue with lowering weakened cooldown to 2 minutes? even 1.5 minutes? Battles wont last long enough for you to use it any more than once anyways (maybe turn based). It's just annoying when you're at 10 hp and have a 5 minute cooldown. OK - coffee break, smoke, piss, let the dog out and come back to fucking FA?
