Newest Patch 1/20/12

Post by Havok » Sat Jan 21, 2012 1:22 am

I have to ask, in what way does this patch benefit the game...at all? I don't remember seeing any demand for this change here on the forums, so I don't really know where this came from. Seems like another concession to the crybabies who call themselves invaders these days.

Gives people more incentive to defend what they build or take... gives people more incentive to play instead of go inactive?

I don't know what this is about cause i pretty much fled after xp was ruined. I'm assuming this is another never-ending tweek.

...i got caught up in a game breaking rule change during "champs"....which cost me money. ...luckily so few played i got 3 times that money back with in game credits. if xp wasnt messed with i may have gotten more. or less. WHO CARES!

there are more new patches then new players!

Actually, changing the rules to an identifiable goal is fine. Changing the rules on what seems to be a whim (regardless of if it is a whim or not), is only going to further annoy what little player base is left.

So I guess that begs the question: What are the goals you're going after for the next couple of weeks/months/years, Toonces?

Might've been a good idea...before invading was made piss easy with all the recent patches. Oooo! Look at me! I can slide from dome to warp on every single colony now! I must be considered a good invader too now! Along with everyone else and their brother! :roll:

Unless there's more to the patch than what vodka said... since most players generally agree that exp is meaningless on permas I don't see what the harm is. If implemented properly it might actually make exp mean something again Sounds like something exp whores would complain about.

of course the exp amount would have to be tweaked with to prevent it from becoming OP, especially on rebangs and extendeds.
