Well don't take the "catch fish at fishing spots" quest. It's bugged and you can't complete it

Edit: Looted fish from coolers and that completed it. Okay I guess lol.

The new locker is so broken, it's nuts how much they fuck it up every season, I have a lot of styles I can't change and sometimes you go to change a style and it's for a completely different item.

Coming back after 3 seasons... Wtf did they do. It's awful. There's no way they think this is better.

The whole front end is terrible.
I prefer it. You could just as easily complain if it always worked the current way and they changed to the previous way. Let's say you'd like to swap between presets of dance emotes, seasonal emotes, and traversal emotes.

In the old way, if you chose a preset, and then changed all your emotes, and then chose a new preset, you'd then be forced to change every single emote again. And then changed your preset again, and then you'd have to change every single emote again one by one.

And now in your current preset, if you changed all your wraps. If you then changed to yet another preset, you'd now have to change both all your wraps and all your emotes again. Now swapping to an older preset? Your emotes would be there, but you'd have to change all your wraps again one by one. The old system forced you to fully commit to every single slot or else individually change every single thing of every section, the new system allows you to quickly swap out individually categories.

Figured the wall jump, it's not actually a wall jump, it's small ledges that you can grab onto. Assassin's Creed style.

So getting the full 1500 V-bucks from the BP requires level 141 now instead of level 90-something like before.

Yeah, I don't know about this one. Just feels like a big miss, especially coming off OG.

The map seems very empty, which it's a new chapter so maybe that's the point but I can't imagine playing Zero Build on this map right now. The weapon mod system feels entirely pointless and makes looting a massive chore, more so when I have to literally stop and read what is on the weapon I just picked up. The TTK might be the lowest it's ever been all around, the Striker AR is like they took the Foundation rifle from last chapter and just turned it into a regular gun lol. The new quest system is just more steps to slow down people's progress and make them have to play more. Then you have stuff like the UI changes that are near universally loathed and Epic just sticks their fingers in their ears about it.

I don't know, just don't have much in the way of positive impressions at this point.

This feels so good after OG -- the locker change sucks, I can't figure out how to random from all presets, but everything actually in-game feels so much slicker and nicer. New movement animations are super smooth, guns feel great, map is really pretty with all the UE5 stuff cranked up. More of this, less of OG.

Na, I agree, the whole front end is awful now and overcomplicated.
I mean just looking at how the settings menu for the game looks like now, it feels it aged 5 years, it feels so clumsy and ugly.

And the preset stuff is just a bad idea coming to life. I don't even get what the problem is in the second half of your post.

Congratulations, you perfectly described what a f'n preset is, and how it should be cause that's the whole concept of a pre-set. 😅

Just to clarify before going any further, you are aware there are presets still in the game, right?

Ok, I amm still downloading the update. I will see if they give me Vbucks like you and ifiremonkey.

There are no vbucks for compensation, it's not mentioned in the tweet.

I think I was level 74 or 78, something like that, in OG and I got 800 vbucks. Don't know if that's the reason why but I have no other indication as to what it would be for.

Yes, but now overcomplicated and split up into their own presets.

Everything people ever wanted was 200 presets.

Never have I ever hear anyone say "Oh man, if I change out my emote and weapon skin on this preset, I have to do it on the other ones too, this is so bad".
Cause mostly emotes and wraps are already chosen for a specific character to work, it doesn't even make much sense to have them switched out for several presets.

Why they had to give us this clusterfuck of an idea instead of finally fulfilling our wish for more presets will forever be a mystery.

Ifiremonkey got 1200 Vbucks but he didn't know why.

I've got 600, no idea why.

For me they may as well not be tbh. I don't want to mess with them every time I change skins
Ironically I don't want to mess with multiple slots every time I change my preset so it seems we've swapped our ideal situation here.

I've never heard of people constantly wanting to swap out their loading screen and banner icon but I take it we're both learning things here today.

Do you have trouble linking up Lego to Epic account, Clicking link me up and conencting to your EGS account gives a blank page that does nothing. Is it maybe cus the game mode is not up yet?

I like the new map and almost everything they've added to the gamelan.

However the locker changes and the changes to daily quests are ABYSMAL. Like legitimately enthusiasm killing, it's God fucking awful and I hope they reverse course on this ASAP.

The locker thing has to be a fuck up. Why would you want your wraps separate from your character? Emotes and the rest I kind of understand. Maybe there's further tweaks coming and it will make more sense then.

Laughed my ass off when the Peter Griffin boss and his crew were looking for me in a building. Could hear his laugh get closer and closer.

The redesigned Locker now requires many more clicks to get your existing presets in order. Now I need to load four separate presets to get my skin, emotes, wraps, and loading screen the way I want them. That routine will grow even more tedious once the brand-new modes are released.

Can you take of attachments from guns? those AR's with scope are so uncontrollable they're practically useless to me

The time to kill feels faster now. Already had a few engagements where it felt like I had no time to react compared to before where it didn't happen too much.

Once again I don't get what you're saying or what you're even referring too about what I said. Lol



The new system simply sucks.
If I switch out my character preset I have to go into the emote pre sets too, scroll though all of them and singlehandedly choose the correct one for my character preset. It sucks that they aren't connected anymore. It's a f'n mess.

Yeah I guess I could live with a general banner and emotes (still bad tho), but wraps? People don't pick them to match the skin?

No idea. But even download is screwed too. I started downloading minutes ago and I normally download quickly now it's fluctuating from handful of hours to 27 hours. Other games download fine on PS5. Servers seem overloaded even for download.

Partner and I logged in to do some bot lobbies when the servers went up and we got the compensation rewards, and 600 VBusks each. She got all the gold styles she thought she didn't make the level for too so she was pleased. However my bot account got leveled up to account level 12 and I had to make a new one lol. Luckily the queue wasn't too bad this morning.

New map is awesome. The train is a cool idea but after a storm circle or two it's kind of a waste as it's always in the storm. Love the new guns so far, particularly the new sniper.
The locker is ass though. I like that I can tab between the outfit parts (outfit, pick, backbiting, etc) with the shoulder buttons but the preset changes suck.
The new smoother animations feels like you walk slower to me for some reason. I'm sure I'll get used to it but it's so weird for now.

The Playstation download servers would be unrelated to what's happening to matchmaking right now.
