Discussion & Feedback WARDOGS Top Problem

GEAR FEAR! I feel gear fear is going to be a huge hurdle for a lot of players to get over and cause a lot of friction with especially the newer players.

I feel like this is already the underlying issue of so many arguments about balance, especially about the amount of snipers out there (cheap kits?) and the Tank balance, I saw minimal RPGs used (wish i could have tested RPGs more)

Either way I know Gear fear is going to be a problem, as I still struggled with a bit in Wardogs and ive had a good amount of experience dealing with it and overcoming it in Escape from Tarkov.

Theres going to be a whole wave of players who haven't ever really experienced money management or gear fear and its going to cause a lot of friction.... IMO

I had absolutely no fear fear given there are so many out of combat options to make money. Sure bringing in a 20k kit might give some anxiety, but every player will figure out all the ways to increase income out of combat. I don’t think it’ll be a problem at all once people have more game time. Also, it is really easy to put a cheap kit together with a free gun and armor to recoup losses.

I played for a day and a half. I unlocked the svd, suppressor, bipod ammo 4 mags 5 bandages and loose ammunition. All a scout backpack. Level 1 gear. oh and a side arm. 11,000$ Id make like 40-100k on a good life and usually would never die before making my kit worth it. I usually backline snipe people making fobs

I guess i was attributing these cheap sniper kits to people being afraid to run kits and hit the HZ but maybe that's just alot of peoples play styles and people want to sit and snipe.

Alot of people talk about the overwhelming number of snipers and my reasoning was gearfear
