Pontius you make laugh. XD

DS you can do that. But you as content developer you are not allowed to communicate in that way with playerbase (customers).

Or give polite answer or do not answer at all.

I think PR like this is actually really viable in 2016. Keep up the good work.

Dick answer for the sake of being a dick.

When I rewrote and clarified the bot slots, I was asked to not have BR work for wild bots. I can't remember who asked for it, but the consensus at the time from other devs was wild bots were OP and the synergy with Wild Man was bad (same for Bot Ph.D.).

Personally, I don't really mind how it is. If the content devs agree on how it should, or could work then I'll make the changes.

The main problem was how powerful Wild Man was. The dev team has been extremely hesitant to nerf it into balance and only just now reduced the slot bonus count.

but why can i have only half my trade bot slots used if i opt to use 1 slot bots for trade ? cant upset the game so much that way ? i am very short on trade bots anyway to complete my trading propperly ? 42 slots to me says 42 slots can be used as trade bots . it isnt stated anywhere that it is restricted to half your slots as it is on combat bots ..

And they nerfed Wild Man skill. Adding 10 Wild Bot slots now would not make huge difference.

Simply it would bring it in line with Combat and Trade bots slots.

Slave PhD and Bot Research not working for Wild Bot slots is a design choice. It becomes more difficult for us to balance future Wild Bots if there's 2 skills that are giving a far greater bonus than intended, so we've chosen to simplify the mechanic.

Your Remote Control level can be a max of 20, at which point you can have 2 Wild Bots (40 slots) under your command. You can extend this by 50% (20 slots) with Willd Man to add 1 more Tech 20 Wild Bot to your arsenal. If BR and SlavePhD would add to these slots you could get up to 18 additional slots, which, when RC21 ever becomes available, would allow a 4th Tech 20 Wild Bot. We are looking ahead to avoid future problems. Adding these 2 skills to Wild Bot slots would just complicates things for no good reason.

I've asked Ryan to make it clear in the descriptions of the Slave PhD and Bot Research skills that the extra slots don't provide additional Wild Bot slots. This keeps things simple and clean.

I'm not for or against any balance or addition on this suggestion. I'm against the way they worded the whole thing.

How would you like to go apply for a job. "We need engineers!" they said. When you get there, they only accept Engineers with a Masters from any college, Bachelor's from specific colleges out of the country, Black Engineers (You're White), Chinese Engineers with PLA-citizenship, and Dolphin Engineers (actual, motherfucking dolphins).

Well, you don't fit any of these criteria despite being an engineer, the only criteria they were advertising that they needed.

It's unfair.

Sooooo anyway, DS is getting the skill description changed to be clear.

All developer explanations in this topic are super cheap.

As a developer you must know how to listen a heartbeat of the player base.

I hope i helped with creating this topic so players will know what "Bot Research" skill provides.

Glad you are happy.

Awsome, while he is at it can he change the item requirement to something that actually is in the game, like gold bars?t

Why would we change it from Luscious Wests?

/mc luscious west

That's why.

Edit: if you want to leave the mumble pair LWs awsome, but the rumb2 should just slightly easier. Something not involving ruin extracts perhaps.
