Battle Pass Progression and XP:
Honestly I feel it could be a lot better. If they bumped up how much xp you got per challenge that would help as well as add a little XP gain to each match depending on how well you do, just make the challenges a bonus that’s optional to do that could help people Progress faster but not make it the only way to Progress. I think maybe 300 to 400 per match wouldn’t be a bad idea and it could scale down from there, so 400 is the max you can earn from a match and if you do poorly, based on how many kills you get as well as objective completion, then the least you can get is 150. Challenge xp should start at 150 and as you complete them the tougher ones can be about 500 xp each because they’re not easy and pretty time consuming. Also I feel like a lot of the tougher weekly challenges can be really tough and if they could be nerfed a little that would be great. They can be a little burnoutty.
Weapon tweaking:
I feel the battle rifles TTK needs to be brought down a little, at least make it match the assault rifle in TTK or even the pistol, the battle rifle was always pretty good and in the MP it doesn’t feel as good to use, so a slight buff wouldn’t be bad.
The pulse carbine has a really long TTK and I feel it could use a buff as well since it performs very poorly in my opinion.
The recoil on the Commando is pretty brutal, if that could he reduced a little that would be great and I feel like a good addition to the game in general would be a DMR like weapon since the commando is automatic which is kinda annoying but it can have its uses, right now the recoil makes it undesirable because it needs considerable control and that reduces the TTK if it was a lot more stable it would be absolutely deadly so damage is spot on.
I feel like the needlers hit effect is really weird and off-putting and the accuracy could use a little buff but damage is good, just fix the sound and vibration effect that is made when it hits its target please.
I feel like the stalker rifle could use a little damage buff 9n body shots but it’s not too bad and same for the shock rifle.
The gravity hammer is absolutely undesirable without grappleshot and it needs better lunge and AOE damage please. Also could we get a melee lunge buff too please, sometimes it works amazingly and other times it doesn’t but if the lunge could be increased by just a little further it would be great.
The Wasps automatic guns are pretty bad if they’re not close range if accuracy could be buffed a little that would be great.
I feel like the ghosts blasters could use a slight damage buff but they’re not too bad, TTK is a little long so could be a little better.
Armor and Customization:
I think the whole armor core idea is really lame and frustrating, especially when it comes to the coatings. Personally I’d prefer that we get old colorization back but at least make all the coatings universal for all the armor cores if that’s going to be a thing. Armor cores seem so unnecessarily extra when the customization could’ve just been like Reach instead. The coating system isn’t bad but classic customization will always be missed.
That’s all I can think of after playing for 3 days but the main issue here is the XP progression, makes it hard to enjoy the game and I really think adding some XP based on match results could really help as well as increasing xp per Challenge. Its a simple fix that I think would help a lot.
