Weapon’s repair system (Dying Light 2)

Dying Light 2

I wonder what kind of ecosystem Techland has tried to achieve by making the weapons repairable via mods or (cough) a certain easter egg and nothing else?

I feel that yeah they want you to use weapons you find then replace them hmm okay then why add a repair system at all but regardless I understand, Dying Light is not the same game although there are some things they could’ve kept in it’s sequel such as holding onto weapons even then they break.

In Dying Light even when your weapons break you are still able to hold onto them and instead of dropping them like in Dying Light 2 you could throw them at enemies and use them as a last resort where as in Dying Light 2 you cannot even throw weapons.

If there is any opinions of which you guys think they should adjust things or should’ve kept them comment below.

I think this change from the 600 scraps is good. If someone feels the charm is overpowered simply don't use it? How is someone else keeping their favorite weapon effecting other people? In Dying Light 1 I had a lot of weapons from vendors and weapons people would just randomly drop me that I never used because I didn't want to lose them, my stash was pretty much a museum of antique weapons.

In DL2 there are no guns to alternate with other weapons which I find odd but, it doesn't bother me at all since I can use bows and crossbows. That being said, you're telling me in a post-apocalyptic world, there are no blacksmiths? Weapons are literally made from things people scavenged and put together. Blacksmiths would make the Korek obsolete if they were implemented. The Ship, FishEye and a few key locations like electrical stations could have blacksmiths to repair your weapon for scrap. Rare weapon 25 scrap, Epic 50 scrap and Legendary 75 scrap. I think that would be a decent system and, it would add more to the world at the same time.

Exactly!

If there are craft masters that can create items or mods then how come there aren’t any Blacksmiths?

If you go the Peace Keepers base then by the craft masters there are people creating weapons or fixing them, all the weapons at vendors are crafted meaning there are people crating them so there to places for you to repair weapons too.

Like everyone keeps saying the Easter egg is just that and part of the “repair system” but I don’t see one I see adding mods that adds 50+ durability is a quarter of the durability so 3 mods isn’t 100%.

Also are there no quarter masters? I liked that you can do those missions or returning with resources to get metal scraps and weapons as a reward in DL1.

As far as I know there are no quarter masters. Maybe they'll add them down the line. Honestly I don't know why game devs don't add on to features instead of removing them.
