Stop talking about buckets... talk about braziers, pots or vats, when talking FP.
Talk of anything esle is plain silly

Um, no?

The buckets are an issue, but that's an error on Russ/PGI to worry solely about it, instead of the actual fundamental root cause of the tiny buckets... it's because FW is not fun.

If the FW Phases were closer to Phase 1 in the population department... this would be far less reaching of an issue. Obviously having 10 different factions in itself is a problem and a factor, but just asking any random player about what they think of FW... and they'll tell you... "it's not fun". The specific reasons will vary, but the core overall message would be the same.

Only if Russ actually play the game and see how the Long Tom works (a major point of contention when it is made available)... whether he has it, or is taking it on the chin... then will he see why many of the complaints are warranted.

As they say... you need to walk in some other man's shoes... or something like that.

That is so biased, if they were tiny braziers or pots instead of buckets we wouldn't be having this discussion at all.

Where can we pre-order these buckets? I would like a Collector's Bucket with custom camo pattern and 30% bucket bonus.

Right idea, but wrong implementation I think. Rather than custom buckets we get new cockpit items: A Steiner loyalty "pot", A Davion "pail", A Lao "vessel", A Marik "container", a Kurita "tub", etc. But all of them are identical, in every way. These "unique" buckets I think are more in keeping with the direction of the game.

Careful, you'll go to jail if the cops find your pot in a bucket on a brazier.

When Russ started talking about buckets, this was the first one that came to mind (obviously in the Kuritan style of pot):
