Will you miss lead/iron cards?

(woodchip) #21

No. Iron / lead were disastrously bad for player retention and added nothing worth keeping.

(ThePigVomit) #22

Iron and lead were only worthwhile when the trade up system was in place.

Of course if they do get rid of them, what is gonna backfill the random case drops, lamer weapon skins?..

I like the iron and leads over bronze thats for sure. With the new loadout system with swapping out stuff with skins and weapons and maybe augments? I don’t know why they would just get rid of them.

Poor vassilis gonna have to learn how to reload cancel with R now.

Oh, so you do it with R :o
I always pressed K, and it didn’t work…

Works fine for me. Every time I press “K”, it cancels the reload and I respawn with a full magazine.

There must be something wrong on your end. Did you try to restart your computer?

I just spent probably over half an hour looking for this reddit post, and I can’t find it. Would you mind linking it Strangerous? Edit: Nevermind, I found it.

Ill really only miss their skins over anything. I would like if they gave iron card skins to bronze loadouts though.

Isn’t iron stronger than bronze anyway? Iron should be ranked higher.

Lol the part where they complained about shoe not being interactive enough then called nexon comunity managers better than him.

I only had time to skim through the AMA. What do you mean with no lead and iron cards anymore? Do you mean, just no more cards with 1 or 2 augments or the actual design will be gone?

(Press E) #31

I’m glad they’re getting rid of them. It’ll be curious to see how they work equipment cases around that though.

Pretty much the only reason to run them besides the skins themselves, was not having doubletime if it was a 3rd augment. But honestly I see that more as someone being too lazy to learn how to use it properly.

gold is a much weaker material than iron as well. In history of mankind they always went for the shinies first.

(Theatrum) #33

Why don’t people like double time?

They should keep the skins and give them full augments so there’s a reason to use them. I like their look more than bronze.

I imagine those who despise the double time augment won’t be very pleased at all.

Yeah, 'til the half second delay on RCR is gone there are cards I won’t touch.

LOL. His post wasn’t here when I looked, I’d opened the thread like 3 hours before I actually went through and read it. I suck. :confused:

I just went to the options, enable reload cancel on r and then became the reload master. :confused:

(K1X455) #37

what’ll be the alternative source of fragments then?

Lead?

(PorkyPerson) #38

I suggested this last year when they changed to fragments, since they are no longer needed. Reuse the skins, no big deal.

Having them makes the game look pay to win, especially to beginners. Consider that higher tier cards will look like upgrades, because the first few tiers are upgrades.

If all cards have 3 perks and they make skins and loadouts more separate, maybe they will make the loadouts affect the mercs more. I would love it if the perk sets had significantly more effect and were regularly tweaked for balance.

You can not use sprint to cancel reload if you have that augment.

If you don’t know what reload cancel is:
The bullets appear in the magazine before the animation finishes. If you cancel the rest of the animation (with sprint or weapon switch) you can start firing sooner.

You can save 40-50% reload time using this, it’s really useful!

#40

I’ll miss how Thunder looked in iron, but that’s about it. Give us default skin toggle in settings with augments, please. Long overdue.
