DLC2/Future of Defiance....A reason to level!

[Jet1337]

I'm done with this game until the next DLC. This game has gotten to a point where it's a chore to play it. Trion ****ed with the drop rates on the oranges. I used to be getting at least one a day, now it's like two a week if I grind religiously for key codes.

PvP pursuits infuriate me to the point where I want to break my game. Destroy 25 vehicles in shadow war? Nobody stays in them long enough and vehicles don't count if you ram them with yours.

My only goal in this game is to get the ark predator suit, but if I have to raise my blood pressure every day to get it, then to ****ing hell with it.

There is no progression. The model is quite flawed. They have made the game a series of very obvious hamster grinds... and all they are adding is a new colour for the hamster wheel.

I agree with you, except the part about oranges. I have gotten oranges more recently than I ever have and I have friends that have gotten pretty good orange drops too. It's all luck bro. I went 2300 levels only getting one orange, but in the next 400 levels, I got 4 more oranges. They didn't touch the drop rate. If you were ever getting an orange per day, which I highly doubt(don't believe that for a second actually) then you were just very very lucky.

LOL..all you have to do is look around the game world. I remember the days, months ago when I would be at an emergency with 4 other people every day, just random people...and now it's like a ghost town in most places. On PS3 at least, there's usually mostly clan mates at arkfalls, with a few purple dots running around.

Just 3 weeks ago, there were always tons, and I mean tons of people at arkfalls. There were so many people at arkfalls most times, it was hard to get a bullet into something before it died. Now there are very few dots on the hud compared to then.

How can you say I don't know **** about their player base when the game is now 10 dollars on the computer and I believe 20 for xbox and ps3....this is just months after launch!! That says a ****load about their playerbase. Are you not comprehending that bro? What's happening all around you is proof enough. I'm just one guy and I know tons of people that quit....and all of them have said they have friends that quit. The proof is in the pudding buddy. This game doesn't have much time left to have a big player base. The drop in price I'm sure has a little something to do with them not making as much money on bits anymore. I didn't say this game would go away completely, but there are lots of people still playing right now that are reaching the end of their ropes with this dev team and this game.

If you are judging the size of the player base by the US Price point, how do you explain the EU price point? Here, the Standard version sells for 19.99 € on PC, PS3, and XBox. The Digital Deluxe edition sells for 34.99 € on PC. So, we've seen a much smaller price reduction in Europe than in the US. One euro = 1.32 USD, 19.99 EUR = 26.4282 USD

So, using your concept that player base size correlates to game price, do you think the EU player base is 2.6 times larger than the US base? Nope, it just cost more over here.

I think you are correct but you should add the commas to the EU prices, somebody might think we have to pay about two thousand Euros for the game

I'm just really starting to figure out that after level 1600, there is no reason to level. ZERO. The ego points to unlock perks and upgrade perks isn't a big deal at all, because most of the one's you need will be unlocked by 2000.

There are many reasons to progress until ego 5000:
-better shields and grenades at high ego
-more hit points at high ego (just a light increase, ok, but it counts when u play in pvp)
-I don't think u could unlock ALL the build loads at ego 1600...i'm ego 4400 and i have just finished my "full explosive" load yesterday...
-and u need at least ego 4000 to unlock all pursuits...

Ok that's a few content and i'm ok with u, this game need more content (pve and pvp, hmmmm especially pvp ^^)

[SickoSlayer]

people cried about having to hit 4k for all perk slots. they got it now still unhappy. lesson is dont F the play value of a game over cry babies. only point of being 5k is all mod slots open which really dont matter and best shlds n nades. small plus for hard grind

btw if ur 5k test ur lower lvl buddies hp value by reviving him. its such a small reward

LOL, I was debating if I should put in the commas so the Europeans would get it or the decimal points so the Americans would get it and, somehow didn't use EITHER.

My main problem is the lack of true content story etc especially since all the episode missions have been removed are we meant to wait till season 2 of the show before we see anything apart from instanced arkfalls which if its going to be the biggest drawcard of dlc2 having watched the pax im not mighty impressed

[SlimShady78]

I agree.

I honestly don't see why people rushed to get to 5000 so fast. I got the game day 1 and I'm about to get to 2000 EGO.

I'm starting to get back into DCUO because there is just a lot more variety of things to do. There leveling system is also a lot better IMO.

Once I got defiance at start. I stopped playing dcuo. Just read all the hype on new dlc on dcuo and have renewed my legendary sub today. There is so much potential in this game but nothing to keep you grinding for.
