Crafting mats are even easier to get now. Challenge modes are dropping 4 HE items plus the 1 for completion.

Love the new patch so far.

I just learned that some guy put up a way to farm 450 mats in one hour. The thing is for me the difference between this game and destiny is that this game lets you just play. Destiny makes you farm. But the changes I'm seeing are making this game more destiny like. After Destiny I know I will not farm for stuff.

But your point is valid that bosses are dropping stuff like crazy so I guess now instead of selling my drops I'll start breaking them down. The regular currency is only good for re-calibration at this point. Maybe the advanced weapons vendor will have a magazine worth getting but that's it.
 
4 pc strikers is fucking incredible. Get buff to 100% on trash, pop water, tactical link, pulse, and smart cover and I end up killing shit so fast I end up losing half my Shooter buff as only the first .125 seconds of a .25 second burst actually killed the guy and the rest just goes through the corpse.

I've starting leaving enemies low health and moving on to other targets to maximize.

Well, there goes c4 HE drops from challenges.... Knew it was too good to be true. They are patching it in an hour.

Ubi/Massive won't let us have any fun.

Yea it is pretty damn strong. Wish my backpack wasn't so damn terrible though. Lost a decent amount of armor and had to make it up with mods.

All month people are locked out of accounts, glitching and hacking in PVP, and the game is full of bugs and glitches.

But a player is able to get loot? SHUT DOWN THE SERVERS NOW!

The only things to ever get emergency < 24 hour patches since this game launched are players being able to have a chance to get something.

Keep it classy Massive.

i got a strikers glove off of the boss in lexington, but then ran it about 8 more times and got just regular HEs. i am 99% certain i had gotten the strikers after the hotfix but i could be wrong? that or its just a rare drop.
 
So what happened before the server shutdown? I didn't get on until right before that server shutdown. Team of 3 did finish the incursion on hard. It was ridiculously hard. At the end, we didn't clear all the enemies. ult'd and just ran for the APC together. Got 2 green gear pieces. At least we somewhat know what kinda works now, and should be able to duplicate the process easier on future runs.

They actually fixed the game. For about 7-8 hours I had lag free run with no gear going awol from my bag and mods un-equipping themselves...

After the patch- lag is back, mods unequipping themselves, map has no DZ-nonDZ color coding, can't extract the loot from DZ. Managed to get a loot drop in DZ, killed elites(1named) to get a gearset item from the named but drop had nothing, just a couple of flares on the ground, no weapon crate or loot chest. On top of that couldn't extract at any of the extract zones. So, I logged out hoping I will still have my loot after logging back in but it was gone.

Daily missions stopped working after the evening patch. Was able to do one this morning but didn't get phoenix credits probably because it was on 'Hard' the daily 'challenging' is not showng on map. Assignments and named always give phoenix credits that's the only source of my p credits right now.

Edit: In case someone is wondering. The DZ drop notification goes to all in DZ(not limited DZ levels) after a minute or two the timer starts(5minutes) and the drop location gets marked on the map. After the timer runs out u have 30 seconds to collect the loot else it will vanish.

I played for 2 hrs this morning and had none of those issues - though I'm level 28 (was messing around in DZ to avoid 30 bracket) so don't have dailies or PH credits, so can't speak to that. I did several extractions from DZ and got one air drop, with no issues. If anything, i feel like I experienced less lag today than yesterday. Guess YMMV, or I'm just lucky.
 
Yesterday night was laggy and I got dropped frequently. I havent tried today.

But I really like this patch. It gives for people like me who solo a lot options for HE gear.

is it me or does the ak-74 kick a lot more
Click to expand...

I haven't checked the AK but I can say the Liberator accuracy is much better now. I used it a lot before the patch but it liked to kick too much and I was trying to get a replacement. I'm loving it now. Hitting 20-25k per shot at 750 RPM and barely missing a shot.

Yah, they patched that out. The 4HE on CM. I think massive really hates its players.
 
what a bunch of BS! I was just about to finish one of the dailies and I get kicked out of the game. didn't get my HE drop from the boss!
 
I'm liking the patch so far. I haven't had a lot of these odd disconnects/errors, but my brother was attacked by a series of them today.

I wish developers would take a hard long look at these superfluous DPS and GS systems. My "lowly" specialized Classic M1 consistently does upwards of 300k headshot crits and fires much more rapidly and accurately than any HE marksman I've gotten. I gladly accept having a gimp gear score using it.

Also, for the DPS readout, why does it seem like accuracy and stability are so much more favored over crit and crit damage? I mean, yes, they're pretty helpful, but when you're at 80% accuracy (on the bar; whatever that means), crit and crit damage are going to be far more effective than any more accuracy. Whoever created the system didn't account for diminishing returns properly on those stats I think. Someone needs to teach these game designers how ceilings and floors work.

I know the feeling. Were you kicked by Flip Mode by any chance? That's the guy that did that to me last.

Apparently there is a glitch that lets people finish CM Incursion the easy way. Looking for details, not sure how it works.
