it honestly felt like a PR move . Their issue is they don ' t have systems in place to make changes where it matters they can only do tweaks to some in game numbers . If they put the game update on the PTR and people were saying hey shouldn ' t the DZ be more of an issue for survival instead of easier ! ? They should have listened to that feedback I imagine nothing changed due to them not having actual things in place ot make more drastic changes . They are likely just coasting the development until march when the last dlc comes out . If you think a bout patch 1 . 4 even in most cases they most significant thing they added was world tiers and the rest were just number adjustments and that took over a month to figure out so the PTR that is only like a week isn ' t going to fix much .
