Ram damage
- Base ram damage increased by 10%.
- Reduced the bonus to ram damage for bumpers, passive melee weapons, “Goblin”, “Gremlin” and “Draco”. Removed the bonus completely for “Bastion”.
Comment: currently, the difference between dealing ram damage with a regular part and a part that has a ram damage bonus is too great. Ramming an enemy with a regular part does significantly less damage than ramming with a part with the bonus. The change levels out the difference and reduces the maximum possible damage.
What kind of garbage is this? Why even have bumpers and passive melee if they deal the same damage as a truck wall?
Why have this patch or trial at all then?
So we can ram each other with APC panels? Why did you just release the King of Birds? I spent good Badges unlocking two Birds and I want my badges back then!
The game must still be in Beta to change a mechanic that has been in the game since Alpha!
So stupid!

While you are ruining things Developers, take away the damage from Shiv Wheels, Meat Grinders, and any movement part that has a bonus to damage. Oh, and take away the Tusk damage too! Oh, and have the Cerberus Melee Weapon do almost zero damage too!
Idiots!

Zodd, you ever thought about judging it after you see it? They are reducing the bonus to ramming parts, while increasing the base damage. They might LITERALLY do the exact same damage as before. My point is how you have NO clue, yet youre here bitching already. Take a chill pill, theres plenty of time to bitch when something needs bitching at after. Prebitching is just childish

No, I do not want to wait. I want them to forget their foolish idea. Stop tampering with items that are already fine!
No, it is not! That is the point!
Now, ram enemy with Gessan, lose Gessan. Ram enemy with the Truck doors that the Gessan was mounted to, about the same damage. Then why use the Gessan at all? I do not even own Incisors or any Founders Parts and many other Passive Melee parts like others do. I had planned on eventually paying the Badges to get them. I spent many hours unlocking the Prestige Structure Parts to unlock the extra bumpers. Glad I waited on spending my badges. I just make do with what I have and do not need any more of the stuff that I do own and use tampered with!
You know why they are reducing the effectiveness of Passive Melee? Because unlocking Passive Melee only takes time. You cannot spend money to get more or better Passive Melee! They cannot monetize it, so ruin it. These parts, Hatchets, Blade Wings, Spike Bumpers, Frontal Protection, Buggy Bumpers, Bullbars have been in the game since open beta started and have had this bonus all that time!
Anyone can unlock these! Anyone can use these! Players choose not to use these and take extra damage from players that do. Evening everything out takes away choices.
I also spent good badges unlocking the Gessan, the Haraate, the Punchers although the first two are more for protection then ramming, the Punchers are supposed to pack a Punch. Players ram me and wreck themselves because I make choices, and they choose differently!
I heard the devs themselves play fire bricks. Is this true? Seems like they are maintaining the game for personal enjoyment while treating the rest of us as piggy banks.
