Didn't Chris say that they wouldn't introduce new higher tier item mods?

If my friends were getting shat on by a bunch of idiots, I'd probably fire up as well.


On a work account. I agree with what he said but jesus lol


I'm not debating the professionalism, just proposing context :)

It does get a bit fucking tiresome how seriously people take all this stuff though, you've been around a lot longer than me Wretch, don't you sometimes just want to karate chop people in the face until they shut up?

Maybe I need a cup of tea and a lie down.

I've had some peppermint and chamomile tea and 5 minutes in the vibrating recliner, I'm much more relaxed now.

At least we've successfully derailed the thread, which is kind of a win.

No. Chris did not say that.
He's said in the past that it's something we try to avoid and not something we're going to constantly do to devalue items. This is all still true.
That doesn't preclude that sometimes it might be necessary, rarely, and Chris hasn't said otherwise.

Sometimes I'm surprised Chris still interacts with the community at all, given how often words he never said get put in his mouth or people give him shit for "promises" that were never made (and in some cases the opposite was explicitly said). Then I remember the kind of all-round good guy Chris is, and that by-and-large, most of the community isn't that silly, so I don't stay surprised for long. Just a few seconds of confusion every so often upon seeing stuff like that.

thanks for putting that out there.

also, an increase in dps by about 1-2% is not an incremental descrease in value for the current items. its to bring mods in line to the highest content available, which is not content youre supposed to casually sustain. i think that what chris meant by his statements is that not every patch there will be things that substaintionally devalue every existing item (like making tyrannical the lowest tier etc would), but rather rare, and slow power creep. this wont make the game feel stale when youve played for enought and achieved almost everything, but give you something new that doesnt break your current items.

edit: it might also be the case that new 6t1 items wont be crafted. atleast on bases that already have a 6t1 item right now

I think people are looking at this the wrong way. Higher mod tiers should mean that the common player can get better weapons slightly more easily since, on average, items will have slightly higher mods on them (assuming they don't rebalance rarities all crazy-like!).

I love that you said this. But holy shit is it unprofessional.

Yes it is. And i don't like it. Sorry guys and Mark. My oppinion. Don't shoot me. I totally get the statement on a personal basis. It is brave and a sign of true friendship. But that's what pub-brawls are made for ;)
The Sirus fight is a disgrace.
