Should clothing unequip decay costs be removed like armor unequip decay costs was removed?
Oh Hell Yes!Should clothing unequip decay costs be removed like armor unequip decay costs was removed?
I dont think suggestion was that.I guess the exception would be limited items. Otherwise all L clothing would be converted to UL.
On mannequin pad and shopkeepers if you swap clotehs on them they decay too I believe, without any notification I think...the game automatically unequips a lot of clothing on your behalf.
I can't imagine the servers running for free and developers working for free. So does it have to go back into anyone's PED card? PED doesn't go anywhere, even when you kill a mob it doesnt go into the mob. It is only used to calculate the return with a rng, for that specific loot event. You aren't owed anything.What's more interesting is where does the PED from clothes' decay go? Does it count as PED cycled, go to planetary lootpool or does it just evaporate?
For a cosmetic feature that doesn't affect gameplay in most cases? The easy solution would be to not wear clothes incompatible with armor, and forget about it. You can get far more than 2 PEC in short moments running around ark rig, and for the gutless how much sweat do you need to gather 2 PEC? If you have enough clothes to be swapping out then that tiny price should be the least of one's worries, and even then I don't see how one could change it so often in the short term to make an impact.Maybe Maria just likes to provide suggestions which could help the playerbase as a whole and have nothing to do with her own financial burden to such things?
if it only were just 2 pec... If you wear a full attire it's 2 pec for hat, 2 pec for glasses, 2 pec for shirt, 2 pec for pants, 2 pec for shoes, 2 pec for shoes... If you go up and down to the hub multiple times a day on cyrene and change clothes often, or have multime shopkeepers, etc. it can add up over time. Swap to armor that pops off a few pieces now and then and then back, etc. it can add up. If it was topped at x amount per day or something it'd be fine, but 2 pec over and over and over can add up. No, I don't change clothes as much as I used to or swap clothes on mannequin as much as I used to but it's annoying that you have so many pec lost here and there many times without any notice. On UL items, you are right, it doesn't matter much, but those L clothes are another situation.MA has already made the game much more economical, to see people stressing over a 2 PEC decay for a cosmetic feature is laughable. This degree of entitlement here is ridiculous.
Well for me, 2 pec isn’t a lot of money either, I’m more annoyed about having to re-equip my outfit each time some get removed after putting on armour. It’s just extra clicks that interrupt my play.For a cosmetic feature that doesn't affect gameplay in most cases?

Dude, they make money from deposits, or do you think that they withdraw ingame PED and convert them for themselves? LOL
And as a paying customer I am entitled to a certain degree of transparency, hence my question about where does the PED go. If you really believe that as a paying customer you're owed nothing, not even any transparency, then I have bad news for you... you're the perfect customer.
Too be more precise, MA makes their more steady income (not counting yearly large sales, just the income that affects day to day playing) by creating a difference between what players as a whole deposit vs what they withdraw.They make money from PED being spent, not deposited.

Id be worried it would do the opposite. People hate movement decay, and actively avoid buying vehicles that have it. There would be no point spending lots of money colouring and texturing something that you know is just going to break. People would stop switching outfits so often, so less encourage to buy lots of different types.To look more like the real world, I think the maximum TT value of the clothes should decrease with each subsequent repair.
This will open up more work for tailors to make new clothes and help the economy.
What a bunch of papooshit. What's your point even, is it wrong to ask for transparency? You want to cancel transparency? You know the community has been asking to know where the PED goes for a while now and it's not just the clothes, refiners, extractors, repair tool decay, welding wire, vehicle decay, fuel consumption... You see, all of thins adds up pretty quickly, and if it counts as PED cycled it's no big deal since most of that is returned later on in loot like armor used to work before shrapnel kickbacks were a thing. Cyrene FAP issue ties into all of that as well.
Quote me correctly boyWhat a bunch of papooshit.
What youre basically assuming is this game operates like a lost and found, which to me makes you delusional. Youre also saying if I spend 30 ped to post an advertisement, it should in reality cost me 3 PED because if I hunt I should get that back. Completely ignoring the fact that I willingly paid 30 ped for the ad, and willingly spent oil for the purpose of transportation. and willingly paid 2 pec for the purpose of changing my avatar's appearance. So what else am I entitled to after those transactions you tell me. 90% of it back?What's your point even, is it wrong to ask for transparency? You want to cancel transparency?

When you kill a mob, you spent a certain amount of TT and it is lost until you press F on the mob, at which point it spits out a number using a rng plugging in the ped spent to kill it as a variable in the process, for that individual mob you killed.like shots wasted to insufficient skill go to bonus shrapnel lootpool,
Back to the circus you go.I'm done here.
Here is what happens when people keep asking for transparency, they misunderstand and continue to ask more questions, and in this case it is over 2 PEC for a cosmetic feature. Notice how carefully MA devs pick their words regarding returns? Apparently mistaken fools have taken "goes into loot" too literally. Theyve gave more than enough info than necessary. And the more they give the more you will pick at it.Damn what a tangent...
I got to agree with soberphil here. Papooshit. ?
No harm in asking for a little transparency.
Dude, they make money from deposits
decay go? Does it count as PED cycled
He has twice insinuated personal loot pools, game doesn't keep track of your cycles to determine your loot.and if it counts as PED cycled it's no big deal since most of that is returned later on in loot
You have daddy issues, potentially mixed with drama queen syndrome and other stuff. I'm adding you to my ignore list and I'm not replying to you anymore. You wanna be the drama queen, be my guest, I don't care.Papoo
No sleep lost here, and certainly no sleep lost overI'm adding you to my ignore list and I'm not replying to you anymore.
Yes yes yes!!!Should clothing unequip decay costs be removed like armor unequip decay costs was removed?
