^ The bigger controversy there is that it's skill based as well which many folks were angry about.
For all the pve vs pvp whiners. 2 kinda idea's I had that probably arn't feasible but could maybe make both camps sorta happy. No pve mode but since they already track how care bear folks are. You could make player skins show as something different if they are particularly low/high rated on aggression. Or more reasonably, because I dont want everyone looking almost the same. Possibly some kinda aura within 25 meters or something. IE their reputation got around and so raiders would know someone specific is known killer. Or even just having player tags within x range so you might recognize someones name that likes to pretend to be friendly and backstab, because short of voice lines, someone using hey dont shoot all seem the same.
2nd wolfpack BP today, so kinda starting my next reset stache of BP's. Unless things change up bigly in any way, my plan is a 2nd reset then done, that gives enough SP to hit secure locker + most of what I want in acrobatics.

I powered through my absolute hatred of being betrayed by fake-friendlies and played this several hundred hours, but I had no interest in the reset and my desire to play fell off like a rock after having done everything the game had to offer. I have less than zero interest in the PvP because the actual mechanics of it aren't good. Also, there's just no real reward for killing other players that you can't get from PvE and I'm too old to give any fucks about 'beating' some other random dude on the internet in a virtual gunfight.
Anyway,
I went from having an absolute blast (rats aside) to having zero interest in the game in almost an instant. The last game that I remember having a stranglehold on me and then almost instantly changing to total disinterest was The Division II. My best friend and I played TD II like a religion for several weeks and one day we were both "meh."
For me, the similarities in how I felt about the two games is eerie. I was obsessed and the next day gave zero fucks.

Asshats galore on cold snap dam of all things. Partly from playing in a group. Did pull out 2 bobcats at least today. But really unless I make some pvp hungry friends, if you like more friendly play mostly, solo really is the way to go short of needing to team up for matriarch etc.

I think my one lingering complaint is blueprints and the nature of static loot spawns still. This was an issue in Tarkov as well, and persists here sadly. They made a pretty good stab at fixing it with randomizing the secure lockers, but they need to do more. The current meta of spawn naked + 5 adrenaline shots + bumrush blue gate security or whatever and just suicide if you don't drop a blueprint is super fucking dumb.
The lack of availability of blueprint spawns outside a couple of very specific areas means the naked kamikaze rush will always prevail, and anyone spawning late or in a poor location may as well just exit the map if you're trying to farm for blueprints.

I got Aphelion in a Stella trash can, but I have yet to find a wolfpack bp since launch + reset.
Was this on Buried City?

I already finished the Bastion one by gathering 25 snowballs and taking them to Dam BG at night raid. Then just uses the Bastion in the hydroponic area as bait in one of the small hut doorways. Then I fished him off with a few Trailbalzers to 3 star that achievement, too.
