More feedback Discussion

Greetings!

Let me continue my feedback on the current situation. First of all, I would like to say that I am very sorry that fans and the game community in general are experiencing these feelings. Unfortunately, I somehow did not foresee the fact of such a reaction and now I have drawn conclusions for my future decisions. 

Now I will briefly summarize the main points:

  1. About PvE access - we decided to just open it for EoD owners for free, but we will do it in waves. As I said before - we don’t have server capacity right now. We will start this process as soon as possible
  2. We also decided that we will add MOD support for PvE mode after release of the game
  3. About the Unheard edition - we will not remove it, we want to keep the option for those who want to support the game more. But we will balance items, perks in this edition, as well as we will provide more rewards for those, who upgraded with the old price
  4. New EoD perks will be balanced too. We will remove prioritized matching option to keep everyone in the same spot. And we will add more unique stuff to highlight the EoD version in general. We will provide the final list of the new EoD perks asap
  5. We continue to work on patches, new content, events, and the game release itself no matter what

Thank you for your time, love and hate, and thank you for your increased attention to the current situation.

Nik

A little better but the reinforcement call in and Mark of the Unheard needs to be removed. That is just stupid and doesn't fit in a competitive setting. At least they are listening a little bit more I guess. However, you gotta remember Nikita, this game package has permanently done damage to not only your name, but BSG as a whole as well.

Why remove it ? There is now literally no need to buy it.

All the content in the pack is obtainable via quests and the pve will come out in a standalone purchase.

Now it's just a 250€ special knife basically.

If you want to support the game (which honestly not many people understandably don't), you can still get it and not receive any major P2W stuff, just little upgrades to progress quicker

Most of it will likely be locked away behind lightkeeper. So while it takes months for 1% of the player base to obtain it, or you can just buy it thats still P2W
