I think the fact that they (OverloadUT) do/does NOT drive the Raptor is not an oversight.Quote:

Heh... might as well stand on the side of the road and wait for an A-fall to pass by.
"Aint nobody got time for that." as the saying goes.
So another week of playing and we still see that the volge emergency drops are nerfed, yet they claim they're not. Is this going to be like with the Volge LMG? after all, you told us it dropped and it was just rare yet we knew that it didn't drop and it took quite a bit of time for you to admit it. How about admitting it again?
As I understand it, they use the same drop tables for Viscera/trooper/bomber in instances and sieges.Quote:

1.) Why cant they just admit that?
2.) Why cant they just admit that they aren't able to use 2 loot tables, or don't want to use 2 loot tables and adjust them accordingly?
I suspect that during the live-stream before the last siege they're going to have a revelation and say 'Oh, That's the way we meant it to be... '.
the way it is now there is no reason for me to do anything but avoid those emergencys.Quote:

Just gotta make sure lots of people explicitly state volge emergenciy drops have dropped to almost nil. If we yell loud enough maybe we can at least get them to admit they f'd up.
That is why I have come to the conclusion that not one single person on their staff really plays defiance
I agre + i tinck they are not reading ore post at all youst like WoW
This is exactly what happened.Quote:

Really stuggling with a downside here, anyone have one?
Yeah, actually, one.Quote:

Why hold the caps, get a score over 20K and get a blue and maybe a purple when you could let the Volge run the place and just harvest Viscera for loot instead?
Human nature being what it is... and never failing to disappoint... :)
As the stages progress troopers are replaced by Viscera almost entirely. I would think people would be more inclined to progress to higher stages in the siege for that very reason.Quote:
