I stand mistaken. I was lead to believe that was the case but I can clearly see there they have the same numbers. That’s kind of dumb imo, if there is any change I reckon the number should be different. Also lol @ the B52 loadout for Fragger. Focus instead of flying pig? I thought these cards were supposed to be an improvement.
one problem with 2nd gen of loadouts

Focus is one of the best augments (it reduces the hipfire aimpunch too even though it doesn’t say it) but yeah it’s far from being enough. I’m pretty sure they still won’t really be balanced, there won’t be absolute crappy cards anymore but some will still stand out (at least for some mercs and from what we can see so far).

Oh right, I didn’t realise that sorry. I thought it was only for scoping, so I’m sitting here thinking what the hell, most people don’t scope with the BR-16, so that’s ok I guess.
Personally I’d still rather flying pig, but each to their own. I like any movement perks that speed up slower mercs tbh, but that’s just me haha.

lel, this is what happens when you tie skins to loadouts. It was always a stupid idea, and it will always be a stupid idea. Hopefully this will tilt people enough for SD to make some changes to this shit system.

Unlikely.
The cycle boosters that didn’t work as advertised, their method to defusing that situation was to close the discussion and move their piss poor explanation to a section of the forum that nobody ever visits, then ignore any comment about it until the event had ended, now even that thread has been nuked.
The fact is these guys are pros. Every time it seems that they’re doing something good for the game / community it’s just a smokescreen.
They’re here to make you part with your money, not to make you happy about this game.
And as soon as this game starts losing players / interest, they’ll just end it.
They don’t give a fuck about anybody who plays this game tbh.

[quote=“BananaSlug;29131”]… our event and special edition cards are going to be useless, for example i paid 12$ for best k121 card which wont be best in next update
same goes for normal cards…
we will need to collect best cards again :/[/quote]
i remember when i was a kid, collecting yu-gi-oh cards and i finally got all exodia parts.
then fusion and synchro happens
“wtf konami y u do this? i finally collected the bling-est card out there and you do this to me?”
well it turns out rarity is a thing and i sold mine for like 400 bucks to a kid back then.

@grumpyBull Yea none of 'em are humans who want to enjoy of what has been created by their hands and work effort. Just greedy inhumane bots automated to grab our monies, they totally don’t have to make decisions based on profit in order to continue creating anything now and in future.
Oh and they’re in total control of absolutely everything, there is no publisher who they need to take into account and negotiate with ever. Oh and that imaginary publisher must be abhorrent creation of nothingness too just like they are.
Yep, bad, even horrendous decisions can be (and have and sadly will be) made but for the sake of Cthulhu eating pancakes, get real people for some time in your life.
On topic though there was this idea to reroll event cards once with a credit fee (courtesy of @Dawnrazor perhaps? Cannot remember) from 1st gen to 2nd gen. That would definitely ease some frustration revolving around those. However that would not fix the issues that are still present in the loadout system itself but that rant is for (yet) another thread…
About the non-event loadouts, well, it’s not like all of them are becoming sub-par. Hard to see new Sparks cards completely outclassing 383 for example, but if we get something that is viable to be used alongside it that’s just awesome.
Also for the Fragger k121 card @BananaSlug you gave as an example… It gets Cool replaced with what, Tough? Don’t worry, not exactly the most absolute gamedeciding augment right there. I’m more than happy to keep using my Humble Bundle loadout with Cool.

I’ve got Golds and Cobalts that become worthless once the 2nd gen hits. I put a lot of effort in those. Will there be a possibility to swap or to get something back?

@Aazhyd if they’re good cards, they’ll have rarity factor, and if trading ever comes out, they’ll be worth a lot. I’m holding on my gold bl33 Fletch for a while, regardless of how ugly it is (bamboo)

But… but… we’re “lucky” for being able trade-in and -up 1st gen cards to 2nd gen cards…

This is a big concern for us as well, your Special Edition, Obsidian, etc. cards not being “worth” anything anymore.
As a long term goal, we are looking into how to keep these cards relevant.
I have no more information to share about this at this time however, sorry about that. I just want let you guys know we share the same concerns about this.
