It's probably worse than the release of Odyssey. You've done wonders with Odyssey where even I enjoy on foot gameplay. But with PP 2.0 you don't have the time you had with Odyssey.
You launched the Thargoid war and literally saved ED, but you have no more Titans and I don't think PP 2.0 can ever replace the T-war. So what now? You have 2-3 weeks at most to completely
balance out PP 2.0. NERFING is not the answer. There are those of us who did not benefit from the initial launch or the un-nerfed version so we didn't get the benefits that the players who took
advantage of that version. Changes that need to happen immediately:
1. Reduce the rank that you need to get first module but increase the ranks between modules. Ex. At rank 34 I receive my first module, and the next one is at rank 39. Why? How about 1st module at 24 then 34 etc etc.
2. Increase merits for on foot combat, trading with bartender, missions etc. You want to shine a light on Odyssey. You guys worked hard to make it enjoyable. Keep at it!
3. Increase merits by rank if #1 is not an option. I get more merits for higher ranks, or get merit bonuses for higher ranks and status.
4. If 1 & 3 are not acceptable then make everything you do in game give you merits, any type of trading, Mining, Bounty Hunting, Settlement Wars, Thargoids, EVERYTHING. So the player, no matter what he or she is involved in gets merits.
You are running out of time. Make the changes quickly.
