PVP is not fun and has not been fun for months. They baited big changes and released a PTR shortly after. The very few people that still care got disappointed, AGAIN. People are quitting, plain and simple. If you want to kiss their ass, I’m sure their dm’s are open.

It’s not a privilege to have access the PTR. They literally need players to test this shit because they don’t play their own game.

Amen, brother.
This sums up the current mood. Sure, they will add more stuff to PTR (probably after 2 weeks), but expectation from community (that AGS builded) was about combat changes. They shot themselves in the knee. Again. There is no version of the story in which this is a good thing. We now have 2 more weeks of ‘anxiety’. Do I buy gear? Do I sell? Should I stop salvaging non-resilient legendaries? Nobody knows because changes they announced are gigantic and game changin 180 degree (in theory). So best thing is what Grim wrote - quit. Which is riddiculus. It’s a mess, they need to think about this in the future.

Right? I love my games that just bring new things to live with like a week heads up and it operates as intended. Having long PTR cycles ends up giving more time to the people who are trying to dupe/exploit to test everything imaginable to find the new one, then keep it hidden till it goes live
The community shot themselves in the knee.
Incorrect. They have in house testers. This is 100% a privilege

A privilege to test their buggy game, find issues and flaws, report them, and not to have them be fixed for weeks, months, or if we’re lucky. at all. I guess I will join you by genuflecting to the Devs.

It’s not a privilege. They have said multiple times they need us to test things. They were practically begging lol

I see this is a hill you are willing to die on my friend. But indeed you are still incorrect. They can in fact just say that all is well and push the build after their own in house testing. However the privilege of letting us test it and add input is indeed a privilege.
Privilege - a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group.
I have pasted the definition in case you needed to refresh <3

Since you so kindly defined it, can you please elaborate how having access to the PTR is any of these?
special right? - nope, granted to ANYone who buys the game
advantage - nope, unless your talking about advantage to find exploitable bugs before live? But I’m sure you’re not considering that an advantage because you are an AGSLover
immunity - nope, don’t see this but maybe you think so somehow?

They can’t accept the fact that this game is ran by a skeleton crew
Oh my friend! The ptr is indeed given only to the select few who bought the game! Its not a part of the main game you see but is instead a simply bonus you get! We are indeed given a special right to see what is being worked on under the hood if you will. Thus making it a special right only a select few have access to. One that can be taken away at any moment as well if we are a bunch of naughty children yelling at our parents when they hand us our least favorite flavor of desert.

Lol take it away from us please. If that means we get updates more frequently that’s what I want.

I can agree with this actually haha
OK you didn’t at all address your own definition of “privilege”…
Whatever man, your clearly an AGS simp.
Anyway - in my opinion AGS is LUCKY to have us testing the game.
AGS is priviledged to have a player base willng to help test their game.

Indeed they are! Its a two way street. All snark and sass aside all you guys do is flame on the forums (not you particularly since i dont keep up with everyone) but if you guys dont start to work on how you deliver your feedback youre gonna loose access and then complain about loosing it. So just consider it a heads up <3

They didn’t do shit on this PTR, just the leaderboard? really??? , and the combat balance and the nerfs to the broken weapons and the light???
How much do these guys get paid? they only work on weekends?
Questions questions and more questions xD
Say goodbye to a big chunk of population. I’m sure others were like me on the fence about playing something else. Only thing that made me pause was the announcement to balancing.
Now I know why over the last two days Muskets have re populated OPR once again after dying down from the PTR balance announcement. Because there is no PTR balance………
Either that or a new exploit or version of aimbot was released.
