Please o Please emphasize your first point. I just logged and my 1050hammer is only 50points higher than a base crafted one on TC. So a 45million credit hammer is suddendly worth about 50k.

Thats such crap!!! First of all we all probably have someone on are server with an uber mind fire weapon that only uses it cause they have no skill, and they still get killed. People with skills can beat an uber weapon. Second, if everything is bland what's the point in playing the game! Even in games with similar combat systems as the soon to be released CU have uber weapons and other items. It's one of the things that you can aspire to getting and makes the game fun. If everything is the same why play the game? It would just be boring, not to mention all the people who put in the time and effort to get better than average stuff. It's one of the things that motivates people to play the game.

Dude, you're not going to get any love or attention carrying on like this.
Get used to it, the weapons are all going to be very close together so there's no more kill stealing, camping and unfair advantages for the guy who PVP's with a 700 mind fire DoT. In RL fighting is more about skill than the weapon you carry, there's not situation where one curved sword is 3x more powerful than another curved sword.
I'm losing one of the best scythe's on eclipse so I'm getting hurt pretty bad too but hey it's just what has to be doen to turn this into a game of skill.
As for aspiring to getting an uber weapon, they stopped dropping months and months ago so the only aspiring you can do is to buy it on the forums for 100 million credits from the bloated exploited economy - that's hardly playing the game is a fun way is it.
You sound more annoyed that you are losing an unfair advantage over others.

lol,,,thats all i can do at this point.
Do you understand what is happening to the game? All proffessions are going to be the same. WS have crafting caps so that there isnt much difference between the best hammer and the worst hammer. So no matter how much time you want to play and improve your character you can never get much better than the noob that logs in once a month.
Because of this, quality loot is going to be a waste of time since weapon components (tissues, bones, barrells ect ect.) are the single biggest thing to loot in the game. There is no reason to go krayt hunting to get "lucky" and make a nice weapon since all weapons are virtually the same. This is a horrible outcome of the game.
I can handle a nerf where some of my stuff is worth less or whatever but the fun of this game is the freedom to develop your character the way you want to according to the time you put in. Now there will be no incentive to develop your character beyond a certain point. The game is simply going to get stangant and boring.
you seriuosly sound like someone that loves that you can finally have some good stuff in the game. INstead of spending the time and energy,,,you just waited for a giant nerf of all the good players.

Uber weapons have still been dropping I looted a 1376 max dmg rifle a month ago. Getting rid of DOTs is fine, I have never used dots and I think they should be nerfed. What is all this complaining of kill stealing??? You guys must have soem pretty crappy people playing on your servers, I have rarely if ever had a problem with someone trying to steal my kills.
You keep talking about needing skill, but its the people that actually have skill that don't need an uber weapon to defeat someone with one. Nerfing all the weapons to be the same is just going to be boring, when you nerf loot and crafting so everything is the same theres no point in playing. Making everything the same is just going to make more people quit.

This has nothing to do with loosing an unfair advantage, it has to do with the game being fun and as I said, when everything is the same people will quit the game and move on because it will be boring.

Thank you for going to the trouble of bringing our issues to the breakfast. I appreciate you being proactive and also like to read about conversions. I look forward to hearing more from folks from TC, what ever it may bring.

If you havn't figured it out yet... SOE and the devs do not care how many people do not like the CU or how many are going to quit. No matter what we do or say they're going to shove it down our throats. All they care about is MONEY. They're banking on 2 things:
1. Even though alot of people will be upset and not like the CU they're expecting alot to continue playing because they have been playing so long or they have developed alot of friendships in the game.
2. Even if half of the server quits they're expecting a bunch of new people to start playing because of the new movie coming out, as well they expect a bunch of people who have quit over the last 1-2 years to start playing again because of the changes they have made.
What has made this game so unique and fun is going out the window in the hopes of making more money off people, and they don't care if you like it or hate it, or how long you have been playing as long as they get payed.

i love the fact that my hammer which cost me an adk + 30 mil will be worth the same as a slice from intrepid's expensive master smugglers =))
I don't think this game has ANY skills whatsoever...nobody is actually aiming or anything, just pushing buttons....it's more experience in playing the game and knowing when to do something. This game (along with most mmorph games) are based more on strategy and experience, rather than "skill" or "talent". I consider a FPS game more skillful than a MMORPH, but whatever, my 2 cents.
Yes, the CU is gonna suck and everyone will pretty much have the same equipment and weapons of similar stats, making everyone all the same, but it's a business and they care about money =PP Can't blame em for that even though the game gonna be pretty much WarQuest =PP
