I agree with the premise that you cannot listen to complete knee jerk reaction threads but the plight of the newberry is a serious one.

When they complain about pub stomps we HAVE to pay attention, new players are too important.

Developers only ever listen to the ones who make the most noise and often, the least sense.

CCP and Zipper are both guilty of listening to the people complaining without valid points; that what kills a game :(

See: MAG patch 1.03? Whatever scared off over half the playerbase!

Anything regarding the needs of new players will always be relevant. If not, we need to readdress our priorities of keeping players than padding our KDR.

All nerf/boost request have the same thing in common, There all self serving, there about getting your play style an advantage. And it's an endless cycle that im tired of seeing. Constant changes because the other person has a bigger piece of cake is anoying. The circle go's around and around and will probably never end. Let's face it we all whan't to play with an advantage over the other person. And that is why CCP should use a paid outside party (with no ties and a no play binding) to help ballance the game. Never the player base for balancing.

I don't even think they play their own game. Have you seen the iron sights on the lasers? I hated the damn things as much as the next guy during Chrome, but they got robbed. You can't even see where you're shooting half the time and that lens flare will kill your eyes, or your TV, whichever comes first.

We need a hands on tutorial instance as soon as a new player starts the client. Something similar to Oblivion where you go though a track, trying out different pieces of equipment to get a good feel for what the game has to offer. Then they can go to the Academy with a higher WP cap of ~100,000 WP with the option to enter public matches and once they graduate, they can have their first and last SP respec.

Half of the regular QQ posters are devs on troll alts.

The people who make this game need to stop listening to the people that just started that have no clue how to play the game and just come here and start begging for them to change it for them. All requests and complaints should be ignored unless your A. in a real corp NOT Commando Perokon and B. at least have a few mill skill points under your belt unless you meet these reqs you dont know whats up and should not get an entire game changed just to fit you

Nah.

Established Corps and old players have been giving advice for about a year....and the result is a pretty horrible game.

Forum whiners have been contributing to this game being ruined one patch at a time ever since scout speed and heavy armor got nerfed way back in closed beta.

Its how ccp operates. The same thing has been going on in eve for years, it just took them far longer to swing the nerf bat in response there.

Gotta agree here the scout and heavy have, and continue, to take a beating and there's no reason for it but to cater to the idiotic players who don't understand that they can't be the best at everything.

a lot of changes have been made to shorten the gap between new players and vets as well because they were:whining about prototype gear being to strong.

Now I can kill a fully fit proto in a standard suit with an exile it's nothing short of pathetic, how low they've fallen from when I first began.

This is quickly becoming a twitch based cod clone, not the tactical shooter we craved and flocked to the beta for,and I'm sad we've fallen this far.

That being said despite this I hope ccp will start to listen to their real community and bring forth the amazing game I know this can become.

I still hope for this game , I still hold faith in cco and I hope that we can create an amazing MMOFPSRPG together and not another fail cod clone.
