Now drone is part of game,

Not a option to be weak 

Or just dont bother use supplies when health and mine till legend rank

I dislike the fact that they keep milking certain mechanics for money and pretending that it's to "help new players learn" or "increase balance".

Linking supplies to drones in the first place actually decreased balance, because P2Wers became more likely to upgrade their drone faster and have full supply effects before F2Pers. Before, with inherently double effects, at least the field was level because everyone had double effect no matter what.

Same thing with removing MUs if the next MK is available, as well as locking protection modules behind TKs.

And auto self destruction is just dumb. I remember when there was a message that prompted you to flip yourself back over with recoil.

Hyperion XT looks great. I also like the update on drones as well as the new updated PC client 2.0.0.

So in the last V-log you talked about lower ranks having to use drones in order to get excess to supplies.

well if you think about what players have been complaining about for a long time . you might stop and see why this system wont work.

first you bring in gear scores to help balance the game - did it work ? no

then you added drones and other things to the game to help balance it out . did it work ? no

so now with drones having to be used with supplies , will this work ? guaranteed not too.. due to the fact that lower rank players with lower gear scores , have been going into battles with Legends . this is why complaints have been on going.

you did say in a v-log in the past that they system works on how well you battled in the last game. so if you do good then your in a higher rank battle . but if you do bad then your pulled into a battle lower rank - and hoping you do better in that battle. but if you don't then your pulled into another lower battle.

see this 3 tier system you have in place wont work with supplies/ drones on demand. This battle was just done today , they had no chance of battling .

This system was never going to "balance" the game in the first place. If you think about it, tying supply power to drones might look like it "weakens" supplies at first glance, but it actually just makes buyers get stronger supplies back faster. I'm disappointed at how the devs blatantly unleveled the playing field and called it "balancing" and "responding to players".
