I'm glad we've seen so much come from this update and i cant wait to see what the plan is for the next 6 months. I'm here all the way and i know that your gonna make me fall in love with this game over and over again.
so whats the problem?..... I see hella hate from the scouts, (mostly because scout don mega is displeased) but i even see people saying they're gonna quit. this update really should RESTORE faith in the game not destroy it.... i admit ive had faith in this game that has been shaken at times, but this is proof that they are FULFILLING PROMISES that they made and are well on the way to balancing the game once and for all. scouts will have a better time when people stop using scramblers and use rail rifles which will suck for close up, and then you can easily nova or shotgun or what ever sneaky ninja stuff.
I think players need to give more then just the "benefit of the doubt" CCP gave us something really good here that we should appreciate. Just try to put yourself in there shoes for a minute, theres strategy involved in all of this. CCP is doing their best to balance an imbalanced game and have to depend on us the community to guide them into that direction. Why ruin an awesome thing?
LOL. Well, Fawkuima, you can see from the posts what the underlying problem is. It's much like owning a brewery. You call the department heads in for a weekly update meeting, and tell them you are providing free protection suits for all staff to wear when they are on the brewery floor (this is a good thing because it keeps their hair from falling in and contaminating the product--and keeps them safe from accidental spills and injury):
The west-packing department says you should have made all the suits dark blue because THEY use blue pens in THEIR department, and a blue protective suit will conceal blue ink stains. The penthouse department says you should have made ALL the suits as thin as possible, because THEY have skylights in THEIR department, and the sun will make the suits stuffy and hot. The loading dock department says you should have made ALL the suits extra thick, because THEY keep the dock doors open during wintertime in THEIR department, and THEY will get cold wearing thin suits. The "sniper" department says "ME!"... and the A/V department says "OURS"... and the dropship department says "US and screw them!".... and...well... (we're not actually saying such selfish words, but we don't realize this is what our complaints amount to when you line them all up on the same blackboard)
Patch 1.7 is a "foundation" patch, intended for the long haul. It's not a patch like 1.2 or 1.3 which arguably was considered "experimenting" or "tweaking". The devs have expressed that "foundation" is first here, and the role/logi/etc particulars will come AFTERWARDS, not now. But few of us will appreciate what we don't care about--we live in our singular department of the brewery.
So the appreciation and generosity you're asking for from the community is Superbly Social Thinking, but no longer part of gamer behavior (...or maybe it never was...I don't know). Dread not, Fawkuima. And let this thread go. Put down this burden, LOL. I'm sure some of us outside this crowd already embrace Patch 1.7 as you do... We just STAY outside this crowd.
Hope to see you all after the 10th.
