So the devs have had issues with this feature for months and they did nothing to solve it? 

Now we're just figuring this out?

What are your engineers even doing? Implant removal cost for a maxed epic with legendary implants cost more than a day's work of some people in Canada. It's a week or so for other countries. 

This game is not cheap at all, at least get things working and upgrade the server if you have to. 

If there's something wrong with the load out, just rewrite it to a more efficient coding. Compromise with an affordable implant removal system. 

What have the engineers done this week? Come up with a new event that gives us an amateur crate reward? Compare that to removing a maxed implant costing 4000 acoins.
