billthebetta Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Watching the DevStream currently, and Sheldon said post U14 "veteran players" will be given something to do with their duplicate prime parts. Uh, could this POSSIBLY be the token system? *turn extra prime parts into tokens for other prime parts?* I bet this isn't the case, but it's the closest we've heard of this happening. Now, the team was talking about veterans who already have the primes(so "transmuting" prime parts into others is kinda pointless), so I BET IT ISN'T THE CASE. sad But still. This could actually be pretty cool.
RejectionOfFate Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 He also hinted at Prime parts degrading like Argon crystals. HowaboutNope?
Tsukinoki Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 The only issue with a token system is that without them degrading and becoming useless there is litterally nothing that would stop a player from hoaring a few hundred/thousand tokens and then whenever new primes come out instantly getting them for no further effort.And DE has shown more interest in preventing people from doing that as a way to add a bit more longevity to the game.So I dont really see most peoples ideas of a token system ever being implemented...
(PSN)ELIT3_EXP3RT-01 Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Yea i agree that a token system shouldnt be implemented.
Blatantfool Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 No, he didn't. He said they're going to try something - but don't put words in his mouth. He didn't say what. You risk hyping yourself for the wrong sort of thing.

You risk hyping yourself for the wrong sort of thing. I'm not hyped, just shocked. Additionally, this is a speculation thread. Just a thought that popped into my head and while it wasn't fully formed(like a large majority of the speculation for this game) speculation is all it is.
RoboDoge Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Degrading Primes? If that comes, i am out of this game.
UnbeBleeder Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 1 token, redeemable for one rng-less prime... No rng? Stop being silly, this is DE, you should know better.
SableSonata Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 He also said that T4 tables were intended to be the more difficult parts across the board, when they were actually just T3 tables copied with one part replaced with a new prime part...
direcyphre Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 But we can already turned unused, extra prime parts into Platinum...
WERElektro Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Oh... so... that means for now, I'll better keep my spare prime parts instead of selling them. :/

No thank you
Aercascade Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 He also hinted at Prime parts degrading like Argon crystals. HowaboutNope? This pretty much. It takes way too long to actually get the prime parts... then by the time you've got all the pieces. Oh look My loki helm is gone! Looks like I've got to go back to T4 survival again. Don't do this DE. Seriously.
(PSN)The_Moustache Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 It would be nice to do something with the 47 or so AkBronco Prime BPs I got while looking for Ankyros Prime Gauntlets.
Legion-Shields Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Degrading Primes? If that comes, i am out of this game.id be upset.
-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Yeah no to tokens please. I've posted numerous times about this. It all sounds great in theory, but the implementation could end up being much worse of a grind than the current system with RNG. Imagine if we had to earn 1000 tokens per prime part? 1 token would drop per capture mission, 5 tokens per defense mission, etc. It used to be that resources were difficult to find and that's what we had to gather "enough of" to craft items. Now we have decaying resources, which are quite an annoyance. If we have tokens and decaying resources it'd be a bit too much. I get the whole logic behind tokens I really do, but it could be a complete nightmare if implemented.
UnbeBleeder Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 I hope they make degrading prime parts. The mods would have a field day, and I would have to buy 3 tubs of popcorn and get terminal obesity. I would then die of laughter from the rage post.
Noble_Cactus Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Degrading Prime parts sounds like the stupidest thing you could do to your game. It's almost like DE knows they are in over their heads and want people to stop playing. Edited June 20, 2014 by Noble_Cactus

Rare rewards should be more frequent the further you go. I'd prefer that over the AABC We have now.

I'd prefer that over the AABC We have now. You'd be surprised, this is actually how it used to be in the earlier days of Prime items. Doing the higher tiers gave you better chances at certain parts.

Doing the higher tiers gave you better chances at certain parts. Thought I remember hearing something of the sort. I'd like to be rewarded for staying longer over farming more and more keys...
(PSN)billy-d-squid Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) But we can already turned unused, extra prime parts into Platinum... Please buy my 15 Ember Prime helms then, no one else is going to. Edited June 20, 2014 by (PS4)billy-d-squid
billthebetta Posted June 20, 2014 Author Posted June 20, 2014 Thought I remember hearing something of the sort. I'd like to be rewarded for staying longer over farming more and more keys... We hear the same complaints when it comes to Defense and Survival on the starchart too.
MeduSalem Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Degrading Primes? If that comes, i am out of this game. Me as well. Funny how we joked about that a few days ago. I guess we jinxed it.
