Broken Lights Feedback

[Vanhline]

 

Just an update, Dev's next iteration of this mechanic will include:

 

1) Only placing the 'traps' at eye or floor level.

2) FX that indicate they are clearly active.

3) Will do DOT vs (instead of) big pulse/surge of damage.

4) Can be exploded from a distance to damage nearby enemies (like Explosive Barrels).

5) Will have a chance to drop a resource.

 

We can definitely see the hate still for these by some, so more attempts to tweak are being made.

 

 

there is nothing you can do to tweak or make these better. they are at their core, tacky and do not do justice to the quality of the game; a horrid addition to grineer defenses. if you want to add another level to their defenses on top of the new energy-zap doors then thats fine. but, these "broken lights" that somehow only appear to zap tenno need to be completely removed and you need to go back to the drawing board on any additional layers of defenses.

 

as your original post stated, you have received enough negative feedback to justify their removal and no additional complaints should be needed. 

 

stop "tweaking"

 

remove them.

 

that is all.

 

 

 

-on a side note-

 

like the energy zap doors.

I think the broken lights are simply goofy.  I'd be more accepting if it were, say, a miniature tesla tower that zaps unauthorized personell walking by.  That'd be more believable.  But broken lights is just a really hard package to buy, especially moreso considering it's managed to significantly increase the fatality rate of the solar system's most feared and noble warriors.  Broken lights.

 

Just take a moment to let that sink in.

well it seems like an improvement, I'm glad they removed the blinding flashes last time.

 

I chuckle that breaking a light thats already broken light gives me loot.
