THEY WANT TO HEAR WHAT WE WANT TO SEE IN AN AMMO PACK! on reddit (called out by name)
They hear us. Want every character to viable on every difficulty. Maybe should just make you able to get ammo. What do you want out of it? how many? do you care if it's common or rare? Our answers will help them gauge how much it should cost for an 'ammo pack'.
Benoit likes the match modifiers, like how angry people get whenever one of his shows up. Tough love.
Bastiaan: "I love the Hurricane."
Bastiaan shooting Platinum Observer w/ X5 Ghost: "Oh God this is taking forever."
Benoit notes that cryo is significant in the metagame. If they make flame better they by implication make cryo worse.
Benoit: they used to do a 2-hour 4 man playtest every day. Now are too busy. He has to learn to solo.
Bastiaan: "Stealth is handy."
Bastiaan is good at Unreal Tournament 1. Recently they played some of Bastiaan's fan-made levels!
JRandall0308: ARs have been weak since launch with little reason to use over Pistols/SMGs. We lack a good semi-auto AR like ME3 Sabre. Can you please boost Halberd, Sandstorm, or something up to that level?
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 we're looking into the balance info
JRandall0308: Dogs still grab us in the middle of animations (even those that should grant i-frames) which is extremely frustrating, annoying, and not fun at all. Can you please tone down the grabby enemies?
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 we'll take a look
JRandall0308: About a month ago you were looking into the Respec bug (respec < Rank X or Level 20 may not refund all skill points). Particularly harmful for URs. Can we please have an update on this critical bug?
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 hmm, i thought that was addressed - i have not followed up since being back, i'll need to check again if that's not the case
JRandall0308: @discobabaloo Any definitive answer on whether power re-mapping is feasible on consoles?
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 not yet :/
JRandall0308: Would you consider adjusting the Batarian Vanguard’s passives and fitness to Offensive Biotics and Barrier respectively? These would synergize better with his niche as a biotic front-line combatant.
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 also good Q for BASTIAAN/BENOIT (change Batarian Van passive/fitness to offensive biotic & barrier?)
JRandall0308: Now that there’s precedent for detonating with melee, would you consider adding this to the Krogan Gladiator’s hammer? It would fit her perfectly!
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 hmm, that's a fairly big change to an existing kit, but i'll throw it over to the team to see what they think
JRandall0308: Enemy evasion behavior is unnaturally precise and fast, with apparently no cooldown on their dodges. “Infuriating” in one BSN-er’s words. Will you please revisit?
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 will add to list
JRandall0308: Enemies seem supernaturally aware of player approach, reacting instantly to acquire players rounding corners or peeking out of cover. Will you please revisit?
DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 tweaking AI there's some things relative easy to tweak and others that you really don't want to open that box up as it comes with lots of risks. would need to check which this falls under :)
Feral411: @discobabaloo is there any planned fix for the fiend causing game to freeze, specifically on Xbox? Usually happens when fiend charges player
DiscoBabaloo: @feral411 ya, someone asked that earlier, we're looking to see what we can do
solace_uk: @discobabaloo Thanks. Is there any plans to revisit the Variant effects on weapons? Siphon is hardly felt on Gold & Plat unless you're taking 0 damage. Concussive is mostly ineffective as enemies don't tend to group up and Bulwark DR is too small to matter.
DiscoBabaloo: @solace_uk always :) part of the regular balance things we look at
solace_uk: @discobabaloo Good to know. :-) Is it possible for characters with a held power on one button to fluidly change into the dual button power like the Kieticist can? Mainly thinking of the Asari Duelist with this.
DiscoBabaloo: @solace_uk that would be cool, that's a harder ask :) but i'll pass it along
Musikfreak007: I'm thinking a classic map could be fun in the near future @discobabaloo . maybe introduced with a new map ?
DiscoBabaloo: @musikfreak007 ya, something we've discussed but wanted to make sure we get new things out first - so, possibly in future?
haloxzealot: @discobabaloo Adding Deeper into the Ruins to the normal rotation would boost that adventure-based feedback and give you guys specific data proving my point
DiscoBabaloo: haloxzealot ya - as usual can't commit to future stuff :) but 'maybe' :)
shadow6365: @discobabaloo any chance of adding something like global challenges for example the whole community has to complete 1000 waves of gold or something
DiscoBabaloo: @shadow6365 something we talked about, but no idea when/if
