Selwynn I am no min/maxer type of person, I don't care about being best, but I did cancel my account. It wasn't because I saw I wasn't going to be the best, I just didn't want to play a game where it is difficult to solo or play alone. I just dont want another everquest where alone is no game and too much downtime.

I played counter strike and got used to fast paced action. I can't stand having downtime, much less them trying to constantly trying to increase it 10 fold.

Btw you got a link to "what kind of gamer are you?" quit? I want to try and see what I'll get.

Wish we could flag this one for the devs. Great thread til it got hijacked by the min/max discussion.

I especially liked Stupidfly's comments about the final reward of TK Master after the work involved. I don't expect them to be godly - I just expect them to be fun is all.

And blackdahlia - good to see you join the fray. I want everyone to enjoy a fun profession/mix of professions. I figure by the time they get done nerfing every profession/combination of professions, everyone is going to be running around at half mob speed, doing 5-10 damage at master level, and getting 100 exp per kill.

Reminds me of a science fiction novel or story I read years back where they forced everyone in society to conform to the lowest standard. If you were strong or fast they hobbled you. If you were smart you were drugged up etc. Kind of reminds me of SWG.

jeez sseese needs to repost this because of rants ..i really sometimes think your working for the company selwynn ....you need to be taught some manners ...i really dont need to justify my play style to you or why i am angry with the nerf ..but will enlighten you some what...

You dont take a product.. package it ..put it on the market when elements of it are not finish ..you do not change the product so beyond what it was orginally to the point people no longer want to use it...you dont scoff at the paying public by totally ignoring them or answer them with evasive explanations like a waffling politican wanting to be re-elected.

I solo in game ..i do not group ....so all my skills are geared so i can survive solo...I find crafting boring but have made very gradual attempt at leveling slicing...and strutting my toon around a cantina half naked just isnt me ..i really see no point ...i explore ...level my pistol up the dirty fighting tree and pistoleer..but prefer melee and have in any game i have played and yes I am master tka ...i dont give a diddley squat what some crack pot questionaire on the internet has to say about play style ....i pay and play to please me ..itsMY nickel ....how others play should be no concern of yours

Now take your rude innuendo's and hush

I have to agree very much with the original poster sseese, Alsojilena and some otherson many points.

This is my first MMORPG, I never heard the term "nerf" until playing this game besides nerf footballs. So, Yes, I'm naive about MMORPGs.

I feel as though is this the same game I purchased about 5 weeks ago? I put 5 weeks of time into a character to have him "nerfed?" I fully understand environments changing amongst other things but having a character stealth nerfed just blows me away. No indication whatsoever that this was going to happen. Meanwhile not addressing the bugs that alreadyexisted and adding even more.Here's a novel idea, Bring us back to our previous state while you figure out exactly what you're going to do with us. If we in fact ever know at this point. Why? Because thedevs are cryptic and give usvague answers, Or just going to"nerf" you another way. Personally I don't think we'll ever be like we were pre-patch seeing as we're still thought as being overpowered. That just makes me lol.

Just another example of being cryptic and vague is saying, "Don't compare yourselves to other classes." Well, Why wouldn't weseeing as it affectseveryones PvE experience as well? I had been more than happy pre-patch just to go hunting on my own for experience points. Now even grouping with friends is just the same old thing. They call out theirpet[s], Let the pet[s] take the brunt of the damage while we stay back and shoot with laser rifles and pistols. Yay, That's only so much fun.

As for the PvP experience? Well, I frankly don't care what happens there. If I wanted an all out shootem up guns game, I'd still be playing Counter Strike. Oh, Did I mention that's free to play online? Along the way I've acquired being a Rifle Expert for PvP encounters in the future and would have enhanced my pistol skills as well.

I may have missed some things that have been addressed in other posts relevant to my posting but this is my take. I hardly ever read forums pre-patch, I had been too busy having fun. Yes, Fun! Imagine that. Then I spent more time reading forums after the patch, Now I hardly read forums because I don't see much hope. I don't see the game/character that I purchased 5 weeks ago and was playing up until last week. Also, I did try many things and suggestions that were posted by other TKAs since that patchand no I'm not a TKA Master but what's my incentive now to become one?

While I'm posting here is an idea as well. Why not have NPC characters in the cantinas that you pay a certain amount of creditsto play music for a certain amount of timeto heal your mind when they are no real entertainers around? This occured to me when I couldn't heal myself in the med center because I didn't have enough mind pool. It was a catch 22. I logged off, Came back 4 hours later and still no entertainers, I then log off again.

Anyway, That's it for now. Good luck to the devs for applying some damage control. Good luck to all the players seeking fun in the game that aren't currentlyhavingfun now.

Sweet precious mother of all things holy selwynn, I dont mean to be insensitive, but god **edit**! I just want to come here and heartily agree with sseese about a GAME, I dont want to hear your **edit**ing life story. These boards are for discussion about a class in a fictional computer game, you need to step off our **edit** and go find another board geared toward what you need to do. My condolences about all your problems but PLEASE keep them out of this board as they are totally inapropriate.

In short, as the Irish in metempts me to say:

**edit** OFF, WANKER!

Selwynn,

Be nice you are a lady!

"smacks selwynn on the hand"

Well a very fiesty lady, but a lady none the less

Great Post SS!!!!

I hope all of you that stay and play and stick through this mess will eventually come out on top. I for one are tired of playing games that release just to be beta tested right after release and have some function/class/game design changed in such a drastic way that it confuses, irritates, and pisses off a large group of people. I have seen it with a few games and it so happens SOE has done it to 2 games I have played from the get go. I have cancelled my account and will not return. I enjoyed posting here and there and I enjoyed hearing some of the awesome ideas you guys produced. Maturity is refreshing and I feel TKA had the best player base in a game I have seen. Good luck to all of you whether you stick through the game or not. I hope to see some of you in some other games that will be released here in the near and not so near future.

Heres a little piece of advise ITS A VIDEO GAME not your life A VIDEO GAME.

End of story.

You said everything i have said and wanted to say about this game. I have lost all faith in the developers and the game. I just play now to pass time and talk with my friends And will cancel soon.

One other thing about the game though, the developers got themselves in trouble when they wanted it all.

They painted themselves into a corner be limiting the amount of hp or pool points a player can have. In beta mobs had less hp, more in line with and a good challange for the amount of hp a player can have. BUT the developers thought people were leveling too fast so they raised mob hp and messed up the pvp balance.

So now they nerf tka, they had actually incresed he amount of time a mob stayed down in beta, because for pvp they are too powerful . So now we are "balanced" for pvp but cant do any pve.

After the nerf i started a ramged guy. It just plain ridiculous that they think tka was overpowered when i see how easy i can kill some mobs and not even be damaged.

This tells me the developers are lost so my faith has been lost also

I don't see anyway the game can ever be what it was. They are going down the wrong road for my taste and I dont think thye can turn back
