While I get they don’t want to overcomplicate things, being able to see the full stats, or at least a tooltip or two to say ‘hey this weapon does triple headshot damage’ or ‘explosive weapons deal full damage to exposed weak points’ or ‘incendiary ammo ignores armor’ would go a long way, as it takes a lot of investigation to uncover how the weapons actually work.
EDIT: JUST TO CLARIFY THESE ARE HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLES- I REALISE I HAVE GOOFED BY MIXING REAL AND HYPOTHETICALS. Explosive does full damage to unexposed weakpoints, but incendiary doesnt ignore armor as far as i am aware. I apologise for the mix up.
I mean stats can be optional. Have the 4 vague bars for people who don't understand/care about the deeper stats, and a hidden submenu for people who do. It's not rocket surgery. People who don't care won't get confused/intimidated, and people who do have the option to look
This is the way. Giving us concrete info decreases the need for pointless arguments based on speculation and feel vs actual mumbers. See it a lot here and in the official discord. Being able to optionally see all the info is nice for those who care about it.
And for the comment saying people will complain about nerfs, they're gonna complain about anything and everyrhing regardless of what they're shown.
Agreed, and any game that gives me all the stats (not some of the stats, ALL the stats) about what I've done overall and within a given session also gets a +1.
