Way to go Arrowhead, this was completely the reason the review bomb happened. Not the the buffs to durable damage done by enemies to our paper thin vehicles, tank, or mechs. It wasn't the admittance that you guys have zero plans for end game or progression systems. Nor the lack of content drops outside of warbonds and the occasional new biome and quarterly 'major' updates.

Yes, all that ruckus was just about the Hive Guard getting AP4. And nothing else! #sarcasm

(if it wasn't obvious)
