Too many people here don't understand what it means to be in a true beta, not some glorified nearly complete demo with "beta" in the title to make the players feel special. Moejoe, and others, are prime examples of this. They come in acting like they think they're in a complete game and want sweeping changes to core mechanics that, though they don't make sense now, will be necessary when all the features are in place. Get used to disappointment or learn what being a real beta tester is about.
Little jibes about failing player retention, threats to leave, incessant whining, and other intimidation tactics are the best way to ensure your opinions and ideas get ignored. It's the main reason most of the butt hurt players feel they're being ignored, because they pulled that crap.
Don't want to play a beta, then leave. Want to contribute, then pull up your big person pants, be respectful, and just give the unembellished thought or idea. |

Nerfing health mods isn't a "sweeping change to core mechanics." It is a balancing matter. No need to get defensive on CCP's behalf. It's really not warranted. Nobody is attacking you or this game.
Sorry. Just getting frustrated with the seeming beta virgins.
The fact with the damage mods, and other mods, is that stacking penalty isn't working right now. Current formula seems to be working like this assuming triple damage mods.
Base 100 + (100 *10%) = 110 + (110 * 10%) = 121 + (121 * 10%) = 133.1
There's supposed to be a 20%, maybe more stacking penalty and it should only apply to the raw so it should look more like...
Base 100 + (100 * 10%) + (100 * 8%) + (100 * 6%) = 124
So before the demands for nerfing damage mods, perhaps the core mechanics of the stacking penalties should get fixed first. |
