Hey there!

In the name of our team: thanks a lot for your kind words, we really appreciate them
We'll keep working on improving the game, fixing and tweaking stuff, listening to your feedback and bringing new content so you can keep enjoying it.

See you in the Broken Planet!

Hey guys!

I'm very glad to let you know we've found the issue! It was a pretty convoluted one!
We're working to get it fixed so it can be live as soon as possible. We'll let you know when that is via patch notes

Thanks a lot for the patience and the collaboration, it means a lot to us.

Hey Brent,

We've been checking it again but we haven't found any issues, even with the lv0 version of the weapon. It's critting correctly on the Beholder, its tentacles, Dr. Kuzmann and the other enemies in the level.

I totally subscribe to MSE_Jvela's words: it must be utterly bad luck.
Thank you for your support and time!

Well, you are playing with the devs every now and then while we're on our personal accounts. Not uber leveled or anything, just like a normal player. And thus, unnoticed

In fact, this last weekend I played against your pre-made group (Shae, Lycus, HIVE, Ayana?) as Antagonist and you were like lv40-ish and I was a lv18 Antagonist You had awesome strategies.

I could have swore you guys always called them "aggs" like "aggro", can't say I understand the "add" term, but I get what you're talking about in chat.  All news to me.

It's an MMO-RPG/MOBA term, it means a bunch of AI controlled minions or baddies, fodder.

I always thought about it like the additions to a combat, which makes some kind of sense in the MMORPG context that Quanrian mentions.
I guess the term sticked within the community as I've seen it to refer to any kind of enemy that is summoned/spawned/added to a combat by another enemy.

Hi guys!

We've been monitoring drop rates for the last several weeks but haven't found any issue: blueprints are dropping as expected, people are getting them and building them.
Some of these weapons have been moved between levels, like Smoking Daisy, but their individual drop rates have remained the same as pre-Wardog Fury.

Keep in mind that Smoking Daisy is among the rarest weapons, so it's hard to see its blueprint dropping. That, in addition to other very common weapons in the same level, may feel like it's impossible to get. We'll keep monitoring their drop rates and tweaking them to improve the experience.

It's true that better scoring at the end of the level improves the chances of finding a blueprint so I'm sure you will, eventually, find it and enjoy playing with it

Keep in mind that we're working to improve the system so blueprints are more interesting and more common than nowadays. Bad thing is... it takes time. We're trying to make the game better with these changes but having everything in place is a slow process.

As always, remember you've got MSE_Karen to help you get the feedback through. Don't hesitate to send a message or write an e-mail to raiders_support@mercurysteam.com to discuss these issues, and don't give up if the reply takes time. You're what helps us improve the game!

Thank you!

Make a joke; say something! Don't just leave us hanging.... by a thread. See what I did there   

- Do you know what a dingo says to another one?
- Yo, dude! A dingo who speaks!

Okay, okay, not a good joke but I tried!

There's a lot of great discussions in the forums that we usually don't take part in because we prefer to understand what the users think of a subject instead of giving our input and conditioning what should be thought about it. And that goes for the critics as well!

When we say we're listening we really mean it: we take your input, check the data we collect and try to figure out the best solution for the game. Some of the suggestions users propose make it into the game (pure or tweaked to fit in the game's spirit); some don't but instead make us reconsider what we could do to improve the game.

The bad part is that changes take time. A lot of time. We have to design a solution, implement it, test it, evaluate it and repeat if necessary. Some of the issues users talk about are deep in the core of the game. We're working on improving these as well as the smaller issues. Our goal is to make the game better, and you are helping us do it.

We also tried improving the way we communicate the reasoning behind some of the decisions we take by creating the Inside Raiders videos (last one here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJXJvnSNvfM).   We believe a video can be shared and digested more easily than a post in the forums.
It's true we don't discuss every single decision we take, and some of them can be controversial. We're trying our best to improve this as well but again, that also takes time.

Also, MSE_Karen is your and our ally here. She's a very helpful individual in the big team that helps making information flow both ways. You can't imagine how happy we are to have her aboard! Let's all work together with her on this subject.

Thank you for loving the game as much as we do.

Hey, ApolloHawke,

Does this happen to you in a specific situation that you can remember? We're trying to reproduce it but we aren't able to.

Thank you!
