Um so till now i dont see anything that will make a veteran player like me play the game again (unless its for polaris spam) and its quiet sad.
Up till now we are just getting the same old event that i literally lost any sort of interest on them and the same boxes thingies which i dont mind since they do support the game.

Now i understand that the priority is making the game operate correctly but what will make your players continue playing it. To be honest i am not looking for content updates, i am more interested in something like weapons reworks and buffs for bombers also animations for similar weapons to be different also expanding for the damage system for example status effects when combined they create some sort of debuff to the enemy and one example for that will be fire and freeze so if you froze an enemy then set him on fire that will create an explosion that will knock enemy back just tell me this is not fun??! everyone will just start start using cyro and magma drivers now.

Now i know what you are think but Manava these things you are talking about are indeed content so why did you say you are not looking for content updates? Will the answer will be what is content for me and for you and pretty much what i said above doesnt match whats been done in this game for a while now so overall i honestly dont know what to expect from the game right now and i am also kinda disappointed specially with the hype that was created when we got new owners but we are yet to see anything...

Just add the blast affect for fire and freeze and i will play the game again from scratch (btw i know it sound op but who cares there is a weapon so called Hammer doing that OP job)

Hm hm hm hm hm.

GH has already admitted that they're, infact, working on something right now, the issue is really just time.

The prizeboxes are to hold us over until they come out (to which they have admitted that they're not going away so I don't understand why people are still pushing for it as infuriating as it may be) and as things stand, GH is a pretty small team as a result.

Honestly speaking, I'm really just glad that they're at least still trying to make some sort of effort towards this game at the moment, though everyone wants some new content updates.

The blast effect idea you creation honestly sounds pretty... Bad, if it's going to include knockback, and mostly just because of the knockback effect.
Having the blast knockback the enemy is kind of the reason why the Polaris/Wildfire/Permafroster guns are so unbelievably hated unless you're a certified pro with them, since the blast more than half of the time is just going to end up getting your teammates killed rather than help them, under most situations.
I will say though, combined debuffs in general sounds like they will be a bit OP, though with this in mind I mostly fear for the health of PvP more than PvE if this kind of thing was in the game.

If it managed to be somehow balanced out however, combined debuffs sounds quite amusingly innovative, especially towards teamwork, but it really just sounds broken.

Feel free to check out this post in the announcement subforum which goes over what Grey Havens has been up to, as of the end of September.

Lots of stuff has been behind the scenes changes, others small or not-so-glorious changes/fixes.

@Pluto-The-Guided @Fangle

Yes i understand your point but the point that i m trying to say is to make more ways a reason to combine some weapons together to create some sort of builds because right now the way we play PVE right now is straight boring and i rarely have any sort of fun playing it. When i mentioned the blast affect i didnt mean PvP but PvE and its possible to make rules in PvP so these kinds of combinations doesnt work there. I just want to have fun playing the game beside pvp and i was just suggesting something could possibly be fun.

Oh plz Fangle i am not a noob even if i dont play the game i always keep an eye on whats new or any possible changes because i still have hopes for the game....

It's still a nice idea, but I'm worried about balance.

As I stated, even if it was excluded from PvP, I have a hard time trying to find a good and balanced method for these.

-Is there a timer on how often it can occur on the same enemies? If people just stacked two different Mist Bombs on enemies, it would probably unleash hell.
-Will there be certain mixes offered depending on the weapons themselves?
-How will potency be calculated between two different status intensities?

I still have an issue with knockback being within the blast, especially if the blast is caused from statuses through mist bombs. If there wasn't a timer, imagine a gigantic field of monsters blowing up and ragdolling everywhere, like after a Gravtion/Electron Vortex explosion.

Actually that sounds quite hilarious, but still.
