4Game

I have had this game since I preordered the founders pack. I did not get in it until last year as a daily player but since I have become a daily player I finished all the storm shields and have all but twine fully AFK kill style. I do not dupe or buy traps but have had players give me some stuff. I have played through the full quest log with only the play with others to finish off. We all know why this one is so hard. I enjoyed the fight and killing play style until twine. Then it became harder to get wins on missions, like it should be, and even harder to replace trap mats to play more missions in twine. Pubic matches like any game has its ups and downs with players but I always block those that are toxic and go about my game play. I have seen and learned different styles of playing the different missions. I played different styles depending on the mission and how I feel. In public I usually will go with what the others are going with. Now since I have little to do in the game I have been working on AFK / Jailing / and more effective no kill style basses. I do most of my mission in private I might add. I am an adult so I like the challenge it gave me. I enjoyed it and have gotten pretty good at it. Yes I can set spawn kill traps, kill tunnels, and shoot the husk but you can only come up with so many ways to do this that I found fun and before i run out of mats for those traps that may or may not kill the husk. Plus I should add I had an accident that limits the use of my hands and to much use causes pain in them so the so called afk style gave me a chance to prolong my game play with less pain by resting them and watching my build do what I took the time to develop it to do. Protect the objective like the mission told me to do.

With this said i am at a loss for a lot of you still say that AFK build or jail build is a problem. Do I tell you that killing husk is a problem or tell you not to use traps or how to play the game you bought. Nope! Stop trying to control how others play their game it is their game. Also Epic if you are not going to add content to this side just leave it alone because the problems you seem to work on the most are things that most do not see as a problem but more of a nuisance at best most of the time.

The news letter even state that some players like letting their walls do the work, well ya that is what walls do keep things out. Otherwise you should have just made us have traps that place walls with the trap then recycling could give you trap mats back. Why do I upgrade the walls if they are not supposed to be used? And to top this off popcorning is back, wall and floor launchers now work like before no crowd control, so now you can just toss all the husk all over the map and they will die out every minute and spawn new ones so jail builds are still easy just need to adjust for the despawn and respawn husk every minute. Which is a short time when you go for the mini bosses. LOL good luck for those that try this for Storm King kill 3 mini bosses in a 140. I enjoy a good trap and killing missions as much as the next but I do not understand the people that are complaining about the no kill builds, if you are in public and want to trap from one side of the map to the other than feel free it is a public match, just don't come in and farm while others build no kill and start shooting without setting up some traps if you don't want to hear people say it's afk / no kill, stop shooting, and so on. Epic does not and never has given enough trap materials to replace a trapped out defense and in most maps you can not farm enough to get the materials in higher missions. This is why people set it up for no kill with minimal to no traps. If i place 200 traps or so in a 160 four atlas mission it will take a day or two of farming to get all those mats back without placing more traps just go in to farm and leave. Also some of us enjoy figuring out how to do no kills and minimal builds as part of the game. Look at the afk storm shield defenses/endurances that use recycling. They are all over YouTube. Lets all getaway from saying it is a problem with AFK/ no kills and say epic does not like it and for those that see it as a problem play with your friends in private lobbies like most of us that build afk/ no kills do because we don't like to carry those that think it is a problem until they want their ten 160's done for the superchargers every week. You want to hit on true problems of the game like carries, duping, and trading in game then do that this type of building should not be stated as a problem as it should only be stated as something that epic sees as a problem for some reason. Lets stop complaining to Epic about so call problems that are not problems and this really goes out to the youtubers that seem to grab their ears more than just the players because if you don't want to see this problem just play private matches and poof the so called problem no longer exist.

Back to the point. Epic I do not see a kill counter on most missions that are out there as a matter of fact the most of them just say defend the shelter, atlas, data pack, the storm shield, and so on. Nothing told me I need to kill those husk or how many in order to beat the board just protect the objective for the time period my way. If you wanted me to do nothing but kill husk you should just have a kill count to meet and we would have seen this game as a mindless killing zombie game and nothing more. I can say I still might have bought it but like other shooting games would have boxed it away by now. This game got it right originally. It catered to a multitude of game playing styles like those that wanted to kill and those that like to think about the challenge. Now you have set it so if I want to kill I only have a minute or the husk respawn and that's about it. You ever tried killing some of these mini bosses in 160 in less than a minute? And giving us back no crowd control count mean nothing other than in storm shields because you can not toss the same husk 5 times in a minute in most cases. I am sure those youtubers and game fly base builders love it though because their AFK storm shields are back! Yes all of it works because epic did not make the storm shield husk despawn. I guess Epics idea here is for us all to work hard to finish all the challenges then do your storm king and storm shield and just quit for you are done with this game unless you want to keep just killing husk mindlessly now and then.

My view on the game goes something like all of those missions you see on each board (stonewood, plankerton, canny, Twine) are to get you mats to put around your storm shield in that area to defend it in it's endurance. That meant the sooner I got those mats and developed a working storm shield the sooner I moved to the next. OK then use the least amount of traps as possible and have more for the storm shields. Got it! I can do these without traps so yah lets do that. After all trap materials do not come out in twine as much as you will need them! That did not end the game though because I wanted to do a lot of different builds and see what I can come up with out using traps or at least few traps. Now that is what kept me interested in the game. Not just mindless killing and supercharging weapons that I do not use.

I can go on and on but please play your game style and let others play ours and if we meet up in a public match lets be considerate and just block each other without the name calling and go to another match. GG guys and girls!

Epic please just fix the real problems of the game not these things that are merely a dislike at best by the few that seem to enjoy just killing husk.

Problems Like: Trading in game, duping, scamming, husk phasing through walls, the stealing of mats from the constructors base, The way you have to destroy full base in storm shield in order to replace one wall because of build count, to name a few. These are not major but I assure you I believe most players think they are more important than the AFK / Jail build / no kill building going on out there!
