Mods Cap

If I am at my mod cap, I shouldn't have to delete my mods to move my mods around. There should definitely be some sort of overflow enabled when moving mods if at the cap. The only time you should need to delete your mods is when you want to bring in new mods.

I totally agree with a mod increase and better tools to deal with mods.
Either one would be a good first step.
You can't say that people aren't doing a bad job of managing their mods if you have to spend about 2-4 hours to manage them. Some people might have 2-4 hours to play the game and not to melt your head dealing with mods.
Also, having a variance on the mods we get from events would be nice. At the moment we are overflooded with health mods, at least I am.

I spend way more time reviewing and remodding toons than I do managing my unassigned mod inventory.

Sadly, most of us probably spend more time fiddling with mods (moving, splicing, swapping, assigning, leveling, selling, building loadouts, etc.) than doing anything else in the game.

Either CG should just give us more tools to work with mods, and increase the cap or change the name to Star Wars: Galaxy of Mod Messin'

Get rid of anything less than 5* mods. It’s silly to have 3s and 4s that serve no real purpose anymore for the current game structure. You can take a 5* to 6* but you can’t do jack with 3s and 4s. Auto upgrade all floating in the wild to 5* and set their levels accordingly. Be done with them…

As for databases, I manage several thousand terabytes in total from over 150 of our wind farms. We have adapted and upgraded our systems to handle it with ease. I’ll never buy the datapoint excuse. Won’t happen…

Very different industries and setups, I would imagine the server traffic on your database is probably a little less than this game.

Possibly. The amount of real time data we have flowing across North America, ultimately to one central hub, every ms, is insane. We also have ~6 million customers supporting more than 11 million residents in a single state.

We also have solar, gas, battery storage, and nuclear plants.

I think the biggest difference between an energy company and a mobile game company is the requirements during setting up the solution architecture. One needs to have guaranteed uptime and an “infinite” maintainability, the other have an expected end of life after 2 years, still being around after five years is a fluke resulting in a huge technical debt on every aspect of the system.

There is no way they only planned this to last 2 years, when this game came out there had already been president set for longer lifespan on mobile games with less notable IP. This is no more of a fluke than "that being a small moon".

Can we finally get a mod cap increase PLEASE. Enough of players who don't care or don't need it holding back those who ABSOLUTELY NEED A MOD CAP INCREASE. it's been a pain for years, and we get more and more characters with no corresponding increase. Managing mods is NOT a fix. There simply is not enough space for a roster of 100 each needing 5 mods. Rosters used to be 1/10 this size with the same cap.

The thing is majority of my mods are 10+ and blue/purple with extras I want to hold waiting to get the materials to see if I get the lucky rolls.

Some folks are saying bad management but that’s far from the truth. I want as many 15-25+ mods as possible however at this time I have to start deleting 10+ mods that could have some
promise because of cap space.

A new system or way to sort that doesn’t increase cap when removing mods from toons would be great. Anything to where I don’t have to delete mods I was planning on upgrading so I can get a new mod I haven’t even sliced yet to see if it can be better...

I would settle for just knowing how many mods I have and how much space is left.
Something as simple showing me 995/1000 would be more than enough.

I will 100% NOT SETTLE with that

There are 199 toons in the game, and a max loadout cap of 200

Like, at this point you can't have two mod setups of a character but the game design encourages multiple mod loadouts for characters because they have really good kits that works with different setups

And, the other issue is the mod storage capacity of 750 that doesn't work anymore with how relevant mods have become since its inception and the meta isn't just speed secondaries anymore so you need to hold on to many different type of mod sets, primaries, and secondaries

There are a few assumptions portrayed here that dont necessarily make sense, or at least are a little misleading towards the arguement being made.

- we dont need or use all the characters, no matter the situation.
- while toons may need/do better with a situational mod setup, that doesnt require unique mods for each situation, in fact some of your best mods are probably moved and used more often in many setups, that hit different goals.
- hyper specific setups are needed more often than not. Most likely in many situations the perfect mod setup vs the next best mod setup is less important than RNG in the event.

I'm not arguing against a mod cap increase, I just dont think its necessary if we were given better ways to manage them. Better tools mitigates or removes issues for many of the problems for the majority of players, and may surprise others who think they need more space.

There is an argument in there for an increase to the saved setups, but I would imagine that 1 or 2 roster wide saves (or other changes to management) would resolve that, more than say bumping it up 50-100%. I would also point out that if you need 200 setups, it could indicate you need more good mods, or a better strategy/setup, but that is a larger conversation and I'm not going to claim to be good enough to tell someone how to play their game.
