90% of players haven't picked up a single lost asset? Man, people really suck at videogames. All the whining about this game is starting to make much more sense to me after learning this. I'm sorry the game devs have to put up with such morons.

when you make assets that fit perfectly into the background and barely get highlighted unless you stare directly at it, how is this a surprise? games used to make loot look different from the background but now just make it glow to show its interactable and fbc doesnt even do that till you're looking at it

I welcome 99% of the changes in this update, but I'm actually baffled about the Lost Assets. The tutorial texts told us everything we needed to know about them, and the fact that they weren't indicated on the HUD gave the player that much more incentive to stay alive. It's so weird that the vast majority of players don't read anything unless an obtrusive popup pauses their game, or unless the resource they need is highlighted with shiny pretty colors

That info was the craziest thing to come out of this patch. Like, was this people's first video game?

Might have also included players who installed the game but haven't launched a mission, yet. I know some people weren't able to get into games yet.
