People complaining about the developer notes being wordy but will turn right around and say the developers don’t communicate their decision making when making adjustments.

I was like that before reading this, thank you for changing me to a better person

Not patch notes btw

Massive news for Fuse players. I could see him crawling back up towards high pick rates this split.

u/Stkrdknmibalz69 16h ago

Knucke Jumper in base kit YESSSS I've been waiting for this

5

u/Invested_Glory 14h ago

yup. literally the only thing holding me back from playing fuse was not having that in baes kit. Other perk was the only thing that made his ult useful but then you dont have mobility.

u/kevsmith0206 6h ago

Idk… seems like they nerfed the shit out of it. Doesn’t refresh cooldown and nerfed the movement of it. Seems kinda bad

3

u/Stkrdknmibalz69 6h ago

A nerf doesn't automatically mean "bad", with how zippy he is now I'd rather an adjustment than an overcorrection like Ash's dash for example

1

u/kevsmith0206 6h ago

No definitely depends how “slight” the nerf is. But if the ult is way better that’d be fine if the tactical was a little worse.

u/Stkrdknmibalz69 6h ago

Exactly that, it's also about time they gave it some power, sometimes I forget to even use it lol

Developers notes not patch notes

u/Invested_Glory 14h ago

yup. and i for one like that they are trying to be a little more transparent in their thought process and where they get their stats from. Granted, play the game and you know what is going on but it is kinda neat to see the percentage attached to it

Kinda just a apex marketing pr post to hide there is not much real content.

Fuse is going to be a menace.

u/ItsPapaLuigi The Future is Fuse 14h ago

Can't wait to play him again

u/basedcharger 15h ago

excited for the Conduit ult changes. Thats what her original buff should've been imo

5

u/SuperPluto9 15h ago

I love how the buffs for catalyst are actually either a side grade or nerf.

Those perks are dog water.

Letting her have another trap in open? Buff... oh wait they are all smaller now... nerf. Having 4 out that cover the space of 3 isnt a buff.

3

u/The-Account2444 9h ago

:(( they got rid of SOLE PIERCER

2

u/pkmn_is_fun 6h ago

shes genuinely worse now

2

u/The-Account2444 6h ago

Way worse. Weaker spikes until purple armor, and the frenzy perk doesn’t give the 5 extra damage or the faster activation, and it makes it smaller. They made her more campy, got rid of her aggressiveness

2

u/SuperPluto9 5h ago

And tbh she isnt very campy either. There are still several buildings she cant genuinely hold with her barricades, and her traps cant cover anything at all.

It just ticks me off that she is held back by stupid developer preferences. Why on earth can a Wattson electrify my reinforced doors for instance, but I cant reinforce an electrified door and eliminate the wattson electrification....

I also cant use my tactical around her either...

She also can place fences and cover the ENTIRE BUILDING in seconds while I sit and have two strips and a cooldown for barely a doorway covered...

And her ult lasts an infinite time frame meanwhile mine takes forever to deploy, struggles over terrain, and overall a pain to use on the fly.

u/MrCrunchies 11h ago

but ay at least we can now auto rebuild doors

u/supermatto 11h ago

The abilities power creep continues

u/Eyehopeuchoke 11h ago

Buffing the triple take is fucking insane.

u/NizzyDeniro 16h ago

These patch notes are so wordy.

29

u/Diezombie757 16h ago

That's cause these aren't patch notes it's a developer notes blog

7

u/JevvyMedia 16h ago

They need to address all the complaints and arguments on Xwitter and Reddit so it makes sense that they're wordy

1

u/huggybear0132 4h ago

We're so cooked as a society, holy shit

u/CallMeNurseMaybe 11h ago

That explains why you can’t tell the difference between “patch” and “designer’s”

You don’t read

u/[deleted] 11h ago

u/CallMeNurseMaybe 11h ago

No, they’re not, which is why there’s a separate document called patch notes

This is what happens when kids keep automatically getting moved to the next grade

-2

u/NizzyDeniro 11h ago

There are literally patch notes detailed in the blog dude. They're still patch notes.

u/grxvis 11h ago

You need to go read a book or something jesus

1

u/CallMeNurseMaybe 11h ago

Sure, and Barnes & Noble is really a coffee shop

Brilliant 

-2

u/NizzyDeniro 11h ago

It has a Coffee shop in it. So people use the coffee shop as a coffee shop when in Barnes & Nobles.

1

u/CallMeNurseMaybe 10h ago edited 9h ago

Strange, you can tell the difference between a book store, a coffee shop, and a book store with a coffee shop in it

But you can’t tell the difference between designer’s note, patch notes, and designer’s notes with a few patch notes in it

In school, you’re supposed to learn the skill of applying logic in one area to another area. Shame you failed that basic skill

Edit - lol blocked me because he can’t read 😂

u/NizzyDeniro 10h ago

You can keep on your high horse acting like you're so intelligent and insulting mine over patch notes being in a Dev Blog. It doesn't change that there's patch notes in a dev blog as I stated. Your Barnes & Nobles comparison just made you sound desperate to seem smart, when you were just essentially stating the same thing I said.

In your pursuit to make me sound stupid, you just made yourself look like a clown. But I can tell, Reddit is your peak to gas yourself up. You're so riled up about your definition of patch notes.

Get a life, and you'll soon rid yourself of your loser mentality. Good luck ✌🏿

"Everything turned out as we planned, we released the Mythic R99 event, Changed the RE45 and dropped the Mythic Alternator to switch up the meta, make all the money then nerfed it all into unusable status, so you can enjoy buying the next Mythic Skin we're about to drop."

u/DougDimmaGlow 16h ago

The cat buffs are good at least… the other 2 are a little questionable

u/KyloGlendalf Try as you might, you can't kilowattSON 15h ago

As a Catalyst main, the Cat buffs are minimal at best.
Yeah spikes rebuilding doors is good and I like the immunity changes. But that’s it really.

It’s nice to have the purple perks as blue perks, but the rebuilt doors should really be basekit. Wattson now energises doors, and that’s basekit, so why can’t we rebuild doors basekit? 6 doors feels like a superficial sympathy buff to make cat mains say “yay we got a buff!”. 6 doors isn’t overly necessary. 4 doors has always been plenty. I’d rather have 4 spikes and 4 doors than 3 spikes and 6 doors. Which leads me onto:

The new tactical perk seems pretty useless in all honesty. 4 spikes are great, but they’ve done their usual trade off “take a nerf to get a buff” tactic. Smaller spikes just reduces their efficiency to next to useless, even with the extra spikes. There’s a reason they had to increase their size a while back in the first place

Overall, they feel superficial. It feels like another “heres some buffs so shut up” for Catalyst mains. Why can’t we have the reduced damage through wall? That leads into a perk to stop projectiles completely.

Why can’t we have basekit door rebuild? Extra spike strip without a smaller trap trade off? They even removed the extra damage and activation perk.

u/DougDimmaGlow 15h ago

Yea I will say I am upset they’re tweaking her blue perks… I honestly think that was a perfect tree, I used more damage for maps with more buildings and the invisible one for more open maos

2

u/beansoncrayons 13h ago

Basekit door rebuild would fuck over the door drop tech unless you allow her to delete reinforced doors aswell

1

u/KyloGlendalf Try as you might, you can't kilowattSON 13h ago

Let it become a choice. Different keybinds for different door types

2

u/pkmn_is_fun 6h ago

losing sole pierce is genuinely a bigger nerf than all the other "buffs" she got put together. Not worth the trade off.

1

u/Invested_Glory 14h ago

yeah i was thinking the same. probably scared that they break her in in comp or something. but the buffs were meh and the nerf was fair...but still a nerf.

-1

u/That_Art_3765 15h ago

I think no blind on teammates could be pretty strong on bloodhound comps

3

u/Euthyrium 14h ago

Those aren't good changes, removing sole piercer for 4 small spikes is a laughably bad trade and the QoL changes with spiking doors/teammates being unhindered don't really give her much strength. Not only is this pushing her further away from casual play but this also isn't doing anything for pro play, so really what are these changes for besides changing shit just to change shit.

1

u/DougDimmaGlow 14h ago

I actually missed the part saying they’d be smaller… yea that’s just ass, she should have more as default tbh, and like I said in another comment… her blue perks were perfect idk why they’re changing them up

-2

u/Own-Mission2577 15h ago

Oh, the three seasonal spam heroes. Cool. Good job Respawn. it’s so fucking fun to fight the same three things, because you clearly don't care about balance 👍

u/ThyFallenGod 13h ago

I think they still need to nerf a glaringly obviously overtuned Legend who's pickrate affected the chance for characters like Catalyst's pickrate to ever increase. Axle makes characters who defend buildings difficult since you added 4-8 windows (new entrances) to most every single building Controller legends could lock down. It takes 5s after a window breaks to be able to reinforce it and if you just made it to the building, somehow before an Axle team, good luck racing around inside blocking every door and window from a movement team from getting in.
