PC Do you prefer the new gun crafting introducing in alpha 18 or the old gun crafting with gun parts (Barrels , stocks , receivers etc).

Definitely the old system. It was poorly balanced because you'd swim in parts after every loot run and the sorting got old real fast, but the constant thrill of upgrading your weapon made it feel like... your weapon. There was obviously room for improvement (there always is), but it felt organic and engaging. Ever since the new system came with the generic parts, that whole subgame was lost and I've never ever felt like my gun was the result of looting and tinkering : "do I have enough parts to craft a Q5 ? not yet, guess i'll keep my Q4 for now. (30 minutes later) screw that, i just found a Q6, i'm set for life"!

You know those parts of the game that you think are just boring and tedious and you just want the result and to not have to go through the boring tasks to get the result?  Now imagine that you are the developer and could easily diminish that part of the game. 
 

Madmole hates tedious repair mechanics. 

I understand, It is just that the weapon parts have little use. Can't remember the last time I crafted a weapon, I just loot and use what I find and never have to craft. I don't mind tedious, I just want repairing to be harder. As it is we never have to plan when we go out for the day. I just grab a few too easy to make repair kits and go

For me, it's the other way around. I have crafted most of my gear.

Then you are lucky. There is a modlet that gives you exactly what you want. Repair kits for which you need parts to craft them.
