Figure I would post for you guys Since ours is missing or doesn't.

Just to give you all an update:

Q3P0 has asked correspondents to hold off sending further submissions until they can address the ones that have already been submitted (which makes sense).

I shot an email to the Ranger designer just asking how things were going, and he said basically they are concentrating on getting the "big" patch (July...the stuff on the In Development page) ready for release - they are going through a lot of test/fix cycles to make sure that they don't release a bad patch. Once that is done, they expect to start addressing the correspondent reports in more earnest fashion.

I am continuing to collect issues, suggestions, ideas and maintaining a list of good threads for the next report, and I will continue to keep you all advised of any news I get. Once the 'big patch' gets released, we should start seeing some progress towards our issues, and I will resume the thursday rough draft, friday submission routine.

I did send in a comment to Q3P0 about just anyone being able to pick up camp control panels, and that it was a significant source of irritation/frustration (griefing) that needs to be addressed.

The fact that they are taking the time to ensure a stable patch is good news, despite the frustration it can cause. The fact that they want to wait until they have more resources available to address the correspondent reports is good news, it means they want to be able to focus on community concerns, rather than dividing their attention. I know this all sounds like "delays, delays, delays," and it can be somewhat frustrating...I share that frustration...I want to see some progress as much as the rest of you do. Be patient, and bide your time and skill up while they get the big patch ready - once they finish the patch and get into correspondent concerns, we should start seeing some of the good things I have been talking about being announced.

Now this is a Correspondent THEY CORRESPOND!

I amn still Waiting for SOE to respond to the last msg I sent. It seems like the Pikeman class has been forgoten...

I plan on sending them a message to catch up with them, and I will post it on a thread.

Khrim...

Sorry for being harsh,

Just completely furstrated Like today..

What is wrong with this picture,

LVL 16 mission I am polearm lvl 1 across the board, I have 1 crimson razor cat and 1 pre-nerf adv probot, and a long virbo axe.

The Lord Nyax Visionary Camp mission keeps poping up But Me a Kat and Driod can't kill them no matter how many different ways I approach it using Frist Aid 4 Stimp B's that are 350 "We" can't kill 1 red 7k ham and 1 yellow 3k ham 2600c mission that is lvl 16.

But there are ranged people that solo these ALL DAY LONG. I was Brawler in Beta , Polearm and this never happened and I didn't have a Cat and a Droid in beta. Call me a whinner or whatever but the class is bad broken and we have yet to get any kinda of reaction out of the devs. Look Inuki is a master polearm that averages 700 to 800 a hit , and low end elite ranged avg 1500 over charge shot, headshot it doesn't matter. Plus they are nerfing knockdown and well i just aobut reached my point on it today. When your missions are so hard that you can't do them to make any kind of money, because, you were nerfed but the missionsweren't whats the fun in that ?

No prob, you I am with you guys, SOE is not keeping up with the game, boards, and its players. That is why they created my job, cause they wanted to have a better way to keep up with everything, but it is still a hard job to do. I am sorry If it seems like I haven't been keeping up with you guys, it is just that I play the game too, and have a life (no offense guys, you know what I mean). So I try to read your guys' posts then don't have enough time to post my own msgs. I have taken most of mySunday here to read everything on the board, send responses to treads, talk to SOE, etc. I am sorry, and will try to keep up, and send large amounts of posts atleast once a week.

As for notbeing able to do harder missions, so you aren't getting cash... I can't really help you on that. What I did was pick up some basic artisan skills and surveying, to place mining structures all around to get some cash on the side. That helps me get the mullah I need to keep me happy, If I buy furniture for my house, or cool clothing for every occation, then my enjoyment goes up (I'm shallow that way, lol). Also I like to throw parties with the homeowners near my house, and make it "formal wear" and have a band and a chef come. lol then we usually havePvP fights like "matches", so people can bet, and have some entertainment. As of now I am the champion of the ring

So those are my Ideas, just mess around, meet people, and then grind down for a few days at a timeto work on the skill tree. this 2-3 day rotation, gets me out of the "Bored" state and keeps me excited about hunting the big game tovacationingon places like Correlia to fish with some friends. It may not allow you to lvl as fast, but what does it matter, when you reach Master, then what do you do? Exactly, take your time, smell the roses, then when you get there, Gloat to all the expert polearms and make then idolize you like a god lol.

Take it easy,

Khrim....
