Put your armor on.


Its funny to hear all the crying about the 5 sec weapon switch delay timer when we have to wait 15 sec per pet.


glad to share the pain

oh and my pet autostored 12 times today in 2 hours

and Mounts still do not attack lairs or much else.

Pretty much just sit and twiddle my thumbs thinking how stupid it is that they can't fix exploits the way normal developers do, by actually fixing them instead of penalizing everyone else who uses the code correctly.

you guys have got to be kidding me

they took out the camps as a way to help us i situations where we dont ahvev bone and hide...if you dont want to wait 30-60 seconds...pay 100 credits for a generic crafting tool

and harvest some bone and hide and there you go!!

No, they took out the camps because they can't fix the autostore problem, and they expect us to thank them for the timer that they had to put in because of some expoit that none of us have seen but they insist exists, but they can't fix.

You forgot, they only fixed it because it affected vehichles too. If it was creature only, it would never have been fixed. lol It was ok if when only a CH had to keep a crate of tents on them. lol

Yeah, and now it takes me about 5 seconds per armor piece I wear on

I like this change, it's more realistic in fact


About the pet timer, I have no problem with it.

I craft a couple traps, but that is because I always forget about a camp

Precisely.


It was only when the general population screamed that the devs moved on this one, because vehicles are pets for calling purposes.

This was meant as more of a joke then a slam, I am not complaining about the 15 sec timer on pets.

I just thought it was funny that when they put a 5 sec timer on something that effected everybody, not just us, how much crying there was.

/agree


I don't mind the wait, and neither does anyone I group with. We all prefer to have my BE pets in the fray.

The point is, the wait has no reason other than to annoy players. No reasoned justification for this delay, which does not occur in metropolitan regions, has ever been offered.

Exactly.


And, how can you people be ok with this. This is one of the worst problems with this proffesion. It completely takes away our ability to participate in combat at a moments notice. Most pets don't keep up with speeders.... so you're riding along and get knocked off your bike and you can't call a pet to help you. Or, maybe (God Forbid) you actually want to participate in the GCW and go around overt. You bump into another overt (opposite faction) and try to pull a pet for back up. Start counting....1..2..3..4...TOO LATE he's agroed you and you're screwed.


And, some people are ok with this???


/slap/yell WAKE UP!!!
