Isnt it like they have traveled to the future and believe they've seen a massive Galaxy ending war, which they now worship the coming of?

They can literally see into the future with a machine that drives you crazy, that's why they're so obsessed with war, because they know nobody can stop it

probably something like, "the tower got attacked and the traveler neutralized, and we got our poo poo pushed in, it's only a miracle that The GuardianTM got their light back somehow and we won. Who's to say there won't be a next time, even with the Traveler awake, and what if next time nobody gets their light back? Or even survives at all?"

"Think of all the poo poo that was drawn here while the Traveler was asleep. What's gonna show up now that it's awake?"

Intelligent and bright, they explored a world that was new and strange to them. They liked it, they thought - a whole world just for them! They were dimly aware that a God had created them, was watching them; they called out to him, thanking him in a chittering language, before running off.

You were wrong about expecting loot from a loot game where the teaser trailer promised loot and you should feel bad.

I really do wish that you could hold more ammunition for heavy weapons, it's pretty anemic considering the damage adjustments they've done. It wouldn't break PvE and you only get a small amount from spawns in PvP.

Was under the impression that the chests only drop a token if you trigger the cap. It sucks either way experiencing both.

Is that the cap? Yeah that happens a lot, but I figured it was like the first game where most chests just give you a couple pieces of that planets resource. Getting something more substantial was reare

They said the reason for this is that the rockets bounce into eachother and trigger the same issue as we see sometimes with terrain collisions being wonky, thus flinging poo poo everywhere at uncontrollable speed.

Tabula Rasa in closed beta had this system. You would try to match the element of the weapon and the element of the enemy shield to break it faster and do more damage.

Is a good system... for a dungeons and dragons based RPG game.
It kind of already existed in D1, but was less important. Now is like in the center.

Theres no reason why a fire weapon would break a red shield sooner than a weapon with green bullets. It don't make much sense to me. But Is not a huge problem.

Has for the static rolls in weapons.. I think a game with OP weapons is more fun than a game where everything is balanced.
