I stopped taking Pyrex seriously when he suggesting buffing the flaylock during its prime.
Also, if you were okay with TAR Callogis, I'm not quite sure what to say.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Also, if you were okay with TAR Callogis, I'm not quite sure what to say. I'd rather have half a dozen new maps honestly, or attacking Planetary Interaction colonies in EVE. Doesn't that sound fun?
No. It sounds like idealism from someone unaware of how this works.
The people balancing weapons do not code for Planetary Interaction colonies, or design new maps. They balance. They design weapons, they deal in stats.
You can't simply decide to put them on a different task that they're not suited for.

I am talking about changing the demands we make on CCP to be less about 'change this and that' and make our guiding principle to be new content and the overall experience of this game as lets face it for some time it doesnt feel its been that way.
Oh, that part of forum culture always has and always will be trash. It's modern human behaviour to whine about things on the forums.
There are some genuine points to be made, though. As I referred to earlier - the Callogi and TAR were clearly superior options to anything else on the table. That's when you deploy nerfbats.
But the idea of 'new content' being driven by the devs doing balancing is misguided. Designers responsible for balance don't code new game modes - it's not their job, it's not what they do. Attempting to repurpose of them simply wouldn't work.
You're not going to see a pretty new map from Wolfman or Remnant. Balancing doesn't hinder new content like it seems you think it does.

We're already there.
CCP Wolfman, Remnant, and company aren't doing things like making new maps.
Meanwhile, the art department is not balancing weapons.
