Thread: For those complaining about camo kit costs...
It IS reasonable to have to use Metal and Petrochems in the hightech bases as well as the advanced traps. They are supertech items that could not sensably be made using bones, hide and meat alone. Is Tatooine Wooly Hide powering your hover lawn chairs?
ItIS NOT reasonable to require a Ranger, a Wildernessman, a Master of the Wild to seek out a crafter to find twigs, branches, weeds, oats, grass, leaves, etc. If I can forage up edible foodstuffs from the ground, why can I not forage up a few branches and clumps of grass?
I say we return the sensible polymer component to the field bases and traps and make our floral component foragable for the camo kits. Our dependancy on outside help is still balanced and it makes more sense! How can anyone dispute the logic in that?!
I am starting to feel like I really am on an alien planet...
Don't confuse your laziness with something that is hard to obtain, because either you're too lazy to run a few missions to pay for what you need, or you're too lazy to buy a micro flora and set it up for a couple days.
This is supposed to be an ehnaced form of maskscent, I don't gathering the resource, i don't mind that they require specific materials. What I don't like is how I have to spend half an hour running around a planet hunting for the materials in order to use the conceal TWICE and have it broken as any normal maskscent. Given the fact you can quite easily avoid danger there is little incentive to even use the camoflage kits because they take too long to make for what they do. Worse still is that I'm hearing people having the camoflage kits not functioning any better than the normal maskscent.
Could I have this person's name and email address? I have some adorable beachfront property in Kansas I'm sure they'd love.
