I, as part of the community of Everspace 2, am proud!

For this patch you can see and feel that you are taking your games community serious, and you are improving the gameplay for the issues reported by users / players.

That is refreshing and nice, I thank you for that!

In your patch notes you took on the challenge to fix the issues reported by players, rebalance and fix what stuck out the most and have clear and open priorities about it.

Please keep up the good work! The popularity of this game depends on it. And reading the patch notes I have the feeling you have an understanding of that.

edit**:

I have some issues with the combination of the following items after I played the last patch version a bit:

Reduced Gauss Cannon spread
Reduced Scout Weapon Range expertise bonus

-> I know from a viewpoint of a developer it makes sense to limit its players "grip" into a game issue by limiting the usability of the item that causes issues. But in my opinion you way overdid this! To a point where the scout expertise perk is not usable any more at all. And since this perk is the scouts main perk for using the ship, I think you just made the first big mistake by discouraging players of the usage of one of your gameplay elements (in which you invested time and money developing it), the scout ship. Ouch! Did I praise you too early?

btw: i double posted this message and thought I just could delete this initial post. But I cannot do that. Is there a way I did not see to do that?

Hi Revangel,

I relayed your first feeback to the team.
We really appreciate to hear something that nice from time to time.
The team said 'thank you'.

Regarding the Scout expertise: I assume the balancing of the Scout isn't final yet. The next big iteration will be, when the other light classes are introduced. We Our ultimate goal would be to balance all classes in a way that there is no best class. (I personally love the Scout and If I had to be honest, I would need to admit, that it is still too strong. But luckily we are collecting actual data and my gut feeling has no word in decision making!!)

Anyways, what I wanted to say is: We are hearing your feedback, measuring what does work and what doesn't. Sometimes we have to do some guesstimating and wait for feedback. So please keep on pointing out feedback, but also be aware, that most things aren't set in stone during EA. We might as well see the return of the ultra wide ranged scout (at the cost of manoeuvrability or so). We'll see.

Best regards,
Ingmar
