I'm rather displeased with the new AP sets but also realize they're only the first of many and are probably for a specific genre of people.
Arcade being reduced to sets is rather sad quite honestly, the reward needs to be a consistent amount of pen or the pen per stage clear increased.
Time Attack as well as Score Kill needs to be reduced to SINGLE weapon trials, always pen stats. For instance, Assault Rifle Time Attack and Assault Rifle Score Kill. That would make things more fun, so would resetting the top scores every week. The person who achieves # 1 gets a little record stored somewhere, and if they''re still # 1 at the end of the week they receive a random perm or something, or a nice pen reward.
Limited ammo + weapon drops should have come to the game, although indeed many people protested it many others would have quite liked it, like me for instance. However, if limited ammo is introduced at the wrong time along with weapon drops than it will simply add to the SO rush and to the death of teamwork and thus the game.
Overall: I won't really even say much as to what the season means to me. The season itself isn't off to that bad of a start, all the content you added is rather interesting and nice, and keeping in mind that it will most likely be expanded in some way i'm eager to see how exactly you do that.
The one thing i do ask if you are indeed going with Alice meets Tron, keep the overall "darkness" of the theme. That is something that i have wanted in S4 since you announced dark lightning, something twisted, evil even.
Lastly, please approach things with patience and focus and don't try and rush content out to please a community that will never be 100% pleased. Take your time with designs and deeply consider positive feedback/suggestions and ways it can be implemented into the game as a benefit.
Don't tell me how to live my pixels!
