Creature Handler Archive

Constructive threads seldom seem to get notice, I'm afraid.

I disagree with this to a certain extent, but it is more of a sematic disagreement. I think the Devs *do* see a lot. To think otherwise would mean that the Correspondants are completely irresponsable and I think most of them, Vert included, do a pretty darn good job.

As for getting *replies* to issues, concerns, bugs, etc. I agree that this is a problem and the Devs could do a *lot* better. I find it hard to lump the Correspondants in this because I suspect they're asking questions just like we are, but aren't getting responses as fast (or at all) as they'd like.

Tiggs is still pretty new and is making the rounds. From what I've seen she's slowed her rounds of the profession forums, but that may just be indicative of the number of threads/issues she is trying to absorb.

Who knows though? Without more/better communication we're just all guessing and I hope Tiggs acts quickly to change that perception.

I appreciate the effort folks but realy I think its doomed for the time being. I'm happy folks are keeping the pressure on, eventualy it will work, but until JTL comes out were not going to get anything that isn't already in the pipeline. The turn around on bugs is often pretty slow unless they are consistant and effect the whole player base.

Is auto storing still a problem? I havn't had it happen in 5 months and I havn't seen the usual scores of posts here about it this month. Just curious.

I'd say well start getting some love in November/December at best, more likely early next year some time. I still take issue with some of the "issues" folks have. BE's deserve the abbility to make better creatures than we can tame (with the possible exception of super rares which should be good in the same way looted DOT weapons are good). They were inteded to be the crafting class that supllied us with our equipment. The only reason it seems strange to us is because they were broken for 6 months after the game came out. Our combat power is very weak because of the whole monster nerfage. I liked that crittters are better balanced by CL than they were before, but without the promised combat balance we are getting the shaft. I'm begining to thing the solution would be to up creature power across the board, making missions more challenging and giving us a boost.

I think that BE' s should be able to make better pets of course, they should also be able to enhance our wild tames, but most of all I am begining to think that nerfing buffs are what combat really needs in this game plain and simple, oops did I say nerf.

Speaking of which our Correspondent seems to be very quite as of late, or maybe it's just me. I think the last I heard was that he went to the meeting and more info would be forthcoming....did I miss that info??

I read and post every day. I would like nothing better than to be a fountain of new info (well... exept for a nice PLT. Paralope Lettuce and Tomato sandwich. When the paralope is nice and lean... I love that ), but I can only post what I know and what I have permission to pass along.

The revamp docs are not forgotten and are still in progress, but we're all going to have to continue being patient for the time being. I really appreciate it, and look forward tohaving lots ofdiscussions with you all when they do become available.
