I'm absolutely astounded we can't craft/install scopes on guns. Seems like a fricken no-brainer as handling/zoom have an effect but aren't game breaking. I could see them being nervous about zoom factor given how it interacts with AA and accuracy, but in that case limit the scopes a gun can take.

This game desperately needs a gun mod system like Payday 2 has, though they also need perks that make more meaningful changes to the guns. Accurate ingame stats would help a lot.

TWAB is up. Game Director says this is some of the stuff they are working on for future updates:

New systems and rewards to give our most engaged players additional, optional pursuits.
Better incentives for players who complete challenging Prestige activities.
Better rewards and replay value for strikes, adventures, and Lost Sectors.
Private matches for the competitive community (we are targeting early 2018).
Crucible tuning like adjusted Supremacy scoring and better spawning rules.
Better incentives for completing Crucible matches (and penalties for quitting competitive games).
Continued improvements to Iron Banner and Faction Rallies, including uniqueness of rewards.
Changes to make the mod economy more interesting and impactful.
Ongoing improvements to Exotics, including adjustments to reduce instances of duplication.
New ways to spend surplus currency and materials (looking at you Legendary Shards).
An emote interface that allows players to equip Salty, Spicy Ramen, Six Shooter, and Flip Out all at the same time.

Patch 1.06 next week:

Fixed an issue with collision detection on the Bureaucratic Walk emote
Fixed an issue causing players to encounter empty public spaces too often in free roam

Crucible:
Updated Mercy Rule settings to allow Mercy to activate slightly later in the match, allowing a wider range of scores to trigger it.

Clash:
Reduced score limit to 50 (was 75)

Control:
Reduced score limit to 90 (was 100)
Reduced influence that enemy-controlled zones exert over the spawning system

Survival:
Reduced round time limit to 2 minutes (down from 3)
Reduced life count to 6 (down from 8)

Supremacy:
Increased score-to-win to 70 (up from 50)
We now grant one point for defeating an enemy Guardian
Adjusted the influence that enemy crests have on the spawning system

D2 is a fork of the D1 code from a year and a half ago or so. Basically nothing got merged and now they're scrambling to do that.

Not defending it but there's nothing you can do about it now. Except not buy any more of their games.
