veteran designs for aegis, citadel, and spearhead

If this is in the wrong section forum mods please feel free to move it. I was wondering what is going to happen to the veteran designs. The ammo cap is supposed to be removed so now all they will offer is extra ep and honor. Will they only give ep and honor or will some other small bonus be added in to compensate? I don't have it but I am considering getting one of the two designs for an aegis so this post does apply to me but I have no strong feelings about what happens. Let me know if anyone has heard what might happen from a good source or if it has even been mentioned.

 

Where did you hear that the extra ammo space on the Veteran design would be removed? I don't think it's going to be removed and certainly not compensated by more EXP and honor or anything else.

 

The ammo cap is being completely taken out. Im pretty sure it was in the dev blog under roadmap if you read each paragraph but it could have been under a different section, all the info about the upcoming update is mixing together. The only reason I said anything about the veteran design is because its the only one that adds ammo capacity. If someone knows for a fact this will not happen please let me know.

Hi Putteringaround,

We are looking at removing the ammo limits completely, but we won't be able to get this done until 1 or 2 months, as first we have to do a proper analysis.

This is in the roadmap section of the dev blog its the 3rd paragraph down. This is what I was talking about.

 

Don't double post, just edit your last post, anyways if it is removed I don't see the big deal if they remove the ammo capacity, perhaps compensation is in order but I don't think it's necessary since players with the design wouldn't be losing much and sometimes things like this happen with progression and change.

 

I know that's probably what will happen, but that's why I put the question up. Now you know its probably going to happen and other people will see this and share their opinion and hopefully the devs will see them and execute this update correctly. I normally do edit but that was bigger then what I might normally add so I just made another. I started the thread and there was just 1 reply so I really dont care lol. Thanks anyways because I'm betting its a rule in the forums.

 

If there is a design which has a single purpose of expanding the ammo, then yes the design cost (in uri) should be refunded as the design is removed.

But I haven't seen any design that is solely for that purpose, but I would suggest that the Veteran designs for these three have EP increased to 10% boost to match the Goli veteran which is also 100k Uri.

If there is no change then maybe a full refund for everyone with the design so those who want it again can buy it and those who now think it's not worth the cost can spend their uri elsewhere. Seems D.O. got themselves into a corner with those releases!!
