OMG THANK YOU, you dropped my first reddit Gold
Stream Notes: (Will Update) This Update Hits the 12th of April
"We read your feedback, trust us"
- Incursions were hard, they made them harder, "Don't expect to beat it on the first or second time."
- Best Gear and Weapons in the Incursions.
- Concept art shows a really cool underground, huge area for "Falcon Lost," LMB is confirmed as main enemies and have access to vehicles.
- 4 different gear sets, powerful talents are granted when you have all the gear in a set equipped, will "change the way we play," Sets are a green color.
- Gear Sets are a reward for Incursion, one gear set is specific to the Dark Zone experience (called "Path of the Nomad").
- "Strikers Battle Gear" Combat assault, for grunts.
- "Sentry's Assault" For Electronics lovers.
- "There are blueprints"
- Looks like a gear set for each play style.
- "When you hit level 30, item level will be removed and "Gear Score" will be added."
- Gear Sets require a trade off, probably sacrificing stats for the powerful bonuses.
- Instead of player levels in the future, we will see there gear score.
- Confirmed that we will be able to view players gear.
- "Trading" If a group is playing and they all get a good drop, they can trade stuff they don't want.
- In Dark Zone must trade at checkpoints, protect players from stealing.
- The "500 Slot" Backpack was just a dev build, Massive pls nerf Dev.
- Trading works by dropping it on the ground, that means that a random person in a group can steal your gear. Be carful.
- "Assignments" Weekly and Daily objectives, already on your map, you will get Phoenix credits, division tech (No Word on HE). Some is Combat Themed, Dark Zone Themed. "Kill X number of Rikers."
- "Supply Drops" Dark Zone item, "really good loot in them," available to whole group. You don't need to extract these items. Happens every hour, guarded by "Tough Enemies."
- "Spectator Camera" You can view other players after you die, FINALLY. Switch Between them, move around the camera, sounds like the way they have it in GTA: Online when you die.
- Now showing a "hilarious" community video. Its not.
- Most predictable way to get Gear Sets is Incursions, however you can get them anywhere.
Falcon Lost Specific:
Incursion Specific:
- LMB have taken over a water plant, FL is underground.
- Story wise you NEED to retake the water plant
- 4 Man Squad only, you don't see player levels, just gear score. Looks better honestly.
- Story Wise (Spoiler Warnings) Bliss is dead (shocking) new person has taken over, big explosions happen.
- Some objectives in the incursion include a "Eliminate X number of waves" and "Destroy APC"
- 2 Difficulties, Hard Mode is the easiest, at least Level 31 gear to be effective. Then Challenge Mode, you need the new gear to be effective. Overall, needs a higher level of focus.
- Challenge mode is "brutal," the best developers and the best gear took them a couple days to beat it on challenge mode.
- Its very fun, if you love a challenge, get ready for tactical gameplay.
- There will be more Incursions after this "Many More"
- Story wise, there are big events happening in the world.
- Need a good group, need good synergy, might be hard with randoms.
- Will probably start to use more consumables.
- APC does huge damage, but you can get away from fire.
- There are flying "Drones" that need to be dealt with differently versus humans. Complete 180 in terms of facing them.
- Matchmaking, required gear score though.
- If you fail, all die, you start from the beginning.
- If you beat it, you may get a "good gun" and may get a gear set item.
- NO WEEKLY TIMER, however for the first time you do it for that week, you get a better reward.
- Can't damage APC with bullets. Special way to kill it, new mechanic.
- "Group coordination is key."
- Completely new location.
- Future Incursions will have new mechanics, they have played them.
- Challenge mode is the sure fire way to get Gear Sets.
- You can get the weekly reward with multiple characters.
