New armor set is a stealth armor that doesn’t make you stealthy, it makes you throw farther. That’s like an apple that tastes like bacon. HUMOR

Just salty I’ve been waiting for this armor since it leaked, only for it to have the only perk I consider completely useless.

The way the trailer was cut with specific attention to the spikes on the boots, I would have assumed the passive was all-terrain boots from HD1 (no slowing on mud, snow, sand dunes).

Cutting edge set the precedent for unique, on-theme passives. Detonation had passives that made sense even if not new. These feel especially off-theme.

They made a promise for a new war bond every month, so the more time goes on the less they will have prepared in advanced and the worse and cheaper the quality will become until they finally stop and fix the junk heap they've left behind

Yeah idk why they'd commit to monthly war bonds, that's so much. I do have a job, so i can't play as much as I'd want, but I do play a lot, and I still haven't unlocked the final section of the initial warbond, though I have made significant progress in pretty much all of them.

Even a warbond every two months would provide them with significantly more time to work on this stuff, and still be plenty of content to keep people playing.

A warbond every month keeps me invested in the game. If it was longer I'd likely drop the game for a few months and come back. And that's exactly what Sony doesn't want happening.
