I think the carry capacity is well balanced. I do run into the limit quite often, but since I opted to be a pack rathound it got better.
The trading has improved a lot, especially if you use the crafting system a lot (is it just me or has the rarity of weapon frame significantly increased?).
But imho it's on a good track now. Still some fine tuning needed but it get's there. Underrail has a postapocalyptic feel and I think it fits (especially in the "poorer" areas) that merchants do not buy everything they are offered. The 10% option Arclightshock is suggestion sounds nice for "rich" merchants. Or for a pawn shop.

But, the elevator not actually having power is caused by the old save I'm afraid.

That's what I suspected after discovering this topic.

Still, you can go around and get to the outpost, but only after you've done the drill quest.

This I learned from this topic, too. But I can't seem so find the alternative entrance....

Same problem here. I was searching for the outpost before I noticed this topic, so I carefully watched what the ambassador said. Nothing about the elevator not being useable.
Can't seem to find the alternative way to the outpost, too. Going south/west I only come upon the hijacked train and/or the deserted outpost. Can somebody lead the way for me?

You guys could always just redeem your Steam keys, unless you have something against using that platform, which is understandable I guess.

Funny. Guess why I used Desura.

it's just that it's not practical to deploy hotfixes on other platforms

Then, for gods sake, don't advertise a new version on those minor platform unless you deplay it there. Or at least do it with an some hint about the ETA on that platform.

Isn't there someone we could bribe to get that special personal download link? 

Yeah, it's really annyoing. Easter weekend here is a long weekend (4 days) and I was really excited when I read that the update is out - only to find out that I am just a second class customer because I used the "wrong" shop.

I'll probably wait until Tuesday/Wednesday and then send the latest version to the other distributors

We will initially be releasing the new update only on Steam

So how long do the others (like me) have to wait?

Sooo... now that easy difficulty is in, has anyone been playing with it? Did it help?

It did. I've played a while on easy now, and have to say now it does feel much better balanced for me. I still die often enough to feel challenged, but I am able to skill my char much more to my liking.
Even the weapon degrading "feels" fine now. So I am really pleased with the changes here.

But it does feel like the new economy system needs some way more balancing done....

On my first try i skilled the wrong way

That's the second, no the third, thing I really don't like. There is like one skillset that works, every other skillset just sents you failing.
I think games that force you on a specific way of playing are absolute fun-stopper. For me failing was never and will never be fun.

They way it is right now, it sure does look like I wasted my money with.

Having said all that, weapon degradation is a pain in the f&*(?%g ass.  I don't like it full stop

That is exactly why I stopped playing. Combined with, the for my taste, way too hard difficulty. With the update the game became unplayable. Unfortunately because I started out really nice.
