Are they still doing complete gameplay/mechanic overhauls on this thing? I keep checking back now and then to see if it's settled down, but it always seems like there's another major change coming in the next couple weeks/months.

Rip game. I guess I can stop waiting for them to pick a direction and stick with it to come back.

Any word on when the migration will happen?

Yeah i was running through the first bit on a new character and it seemed decent. Got up to level 12 and stopped cause I want to know what I'm going to have on my main. Also there are a bunch of new bikes and a lot of them look nicer than the first lgv. Maybe I can put some of this 1k+ red beans to use finally.

Ah. Apparently I got one too. Shoulda checked my email.

I can choose between the Firecat, Dragonfly, Nighthawk or the 40mill xp pack for my arsenal trade in. No idea what to do...

I was dumb and took the xp. I did however get all three frames from having the base frame. So I've got those to level.

Is the enemy ai(and just combat ai in general) hosed up? I did the beginner mission that's set up like a tower defense (as a bastion). All the enemies would just stop and not really attack much and both the built turrets as well as my own were shooting kinda sporadically.

Man. I have no idea what I'm doing/what i should be doing. Still, I'm not completely disliking it. probably going to hold off for a week/month until some of the stability and weird bugs I've been seeing get sorted out.

FYI, 40mill takes you to level 36.

yeah so far I've only really enjoyed playing my mammoth and firecat. They both strike that sweet spot between aoe and single target to sleepwalk through most content. And obviously mammoth is better for infinite range and better sustained damage (firecat overheats pretty fast unless you use the skill to not overheat) Given, my impressions so far are with mostly the autogrant gear and no modifications, so it could be pretty different once I start slapping some real stuff on there.

There are also a lot of weird pacing things where the cutscene goes on long after it should have ended.Like the one where you load a bunch of scientists on a dropship after the first one gets dunked. The door takes forever to close and then you fly off into the distance and the camera just sits there for a minute.

Hot drat. Did they say why?

Wait, they delivered it to your inventory instead of as a crate? That's... less than smart.

I logged in and got a mail that says Loot Week Continues Day 2 of 7. I logged in yesterday but didn't get 1 of 7?

I'm guessing they started it today and at 4 pm pst it ticked over to the second day so yeah... Red5.

I would have liked if the quests were a little less generic and the way audio didn't really sync up with what was on screen, it was hard to follow the dialogue even when I was interested. That being said, there were a couple kinda cool missions? I was doing it on my level 40 dude so all the content was super trivial though. And now that I have Bounties unlocked I probably won't bother too much doing them unless I'm bored/don't know what to do next. Do goon parties happen at all? I'm in one of the defunct old branches [FAT] when the sprawling army system was in place so I should probably join whatever the main clan is now.

It's to be expected when they're constantly completely overhauling core features. You don't get to spend time on quality of life. You can't tweak the UI when it's changing to accommodate the new stuff.

I thought he ( she? It? Both?) quit last year some time. There was a post about it but searching is hard.

I look forward to former devs who liked where the game was originally going getting together to work on a new project.

poo poo, that already happened. I just hope the next one doesn't devolve into lawsuits, layoffs, Twitter wars, drug abuse and parking lot sex too.

Really? What's it called?

I mean, it's not really wrong. Plenty of people have bitched about the lack of iron sights throughout Firefall's history. There are pretty much no major multiplayer PvP shooters out there without iron sights.

Counter-Strike.

I don't think I ever spent my red beans from the commander pack way the gently caress back in the day. That stupid beanie is still kicking around somewhere...

If they're not insane, mobile will be like a companion app like Warframe's so you can manage stuff you're crafting and poo poo like that (crafting still exists in this game, right?) Or maybe some weird minigame thing like the Division with the UAV assuming that made it into the game.
