My son has a theory on the collision/fall damage changes

During the testing of the Strand grapple swinging, developers were dying all over the place from collisions and falling death. It was then determined that they either change the way the grapple works, changing the vision of it, or [u]finally[/u] dealing with collision and fall damage. But will they admit it? 🤔 Thoughts?

  • That is a reasonable theory which I agree with and no they will not admit it. I can picture the dev team giving strand grappling a go and hearing the choruses of "Guardian Down" ringing around the office followed by "Ah, right hmmm, maybe collision needs to be looked at after all". Even in the recent TWAB that was showcasing the armour changes and mod possibilities there was a statement along the lines that guardians will probably come up with combinations we haven't thought of. On reading that I thought to myself that is a backhand way of saying that they don't think about interactions beyond much of a basic level. It's like they toss a big bucket of LEGO (Other brands of construction toy are available) out into the wild and see what gets built. That would be fine if only when something truly epic (Read , fun) is constructed they didn't jump on it and nerf it into the ground.
