You say you wanted challenge, I tell you how to get challenge and you cry about the rewards. That leaves one to conclude you're not interesting in the challenge but the rewards associated with the challenge.

Move on with your life!

I've been running a minimum of 4 Task Forces and Strike Forces per week, and as many as 12.

The Challenge was the entire reason for running 4 to 12 TFs a week. The running of 4 to 12 TFs a week is the only reason I continue playing, and constitutes 90% of my playtime. If this is a permanent change I will have NO REASON TO CONTINUE PLAYING.

I've been hopping between Aion and here for the last week. For someone coming from another MMO, yes, COH *Looks* more sparsely populated. Why?

Because everyone's running around outside. You're competing for kills with them for that "Get X Enemy-item" and "Defeat X Bad Guy," while another's going for the "Take the soup to Jim" mission.

COH? People are *inside* instanced missions. Yes, there's some travel. No, you don't have to compete to "Defeat 10 Hellions" - because there's around 300 in a 1000 yard radius, if not more. You see me going to a contact, then a door - *and my team vanishes from the map as we all go inside.*

Gee, why does someone who doesnt' spend half a second to think about it think "the servers are empty?"

As has been pointed out, AGAIN, even those of us on "small" servers have no problems getting teams with a *bare minimum* of effort (IE, not just standing there going "vlv 10 nincompoop lft!" in local or broadcast.) Oh, and not every team has to be 8-person, one-of-each-AT minimum, etc.

You also, AGAIN, ignore all the problems with a server merge - including a *very* solid impression that the game's about to die that such a thing sends.

Go learn something before spouting off instead of ignoring what's been told to you.

Crits are not what make a scrapper a scrapper, its being nearly as safe as a tank while doing massive amounts of damage. Stalkers don't even come close to that playstyle, even if they have the opportunity to do more damage in the right situations. The catch is that EVERY situation is the right situation for a scrapper or brute.

Stalkers don't really have a comparable class outside of one of the VEATs. Sneaky is not the scrapper way.

Even after the not so recent buffs.

but ever time, late at nite, to early morin, its a ghost town

i have no where to go to level up at any decent rate, i bring up Pre patch AE, cease it was a life saver for me, Now Ha, missions arwe a ghost town
AE is a ghost town, what is a player to do

atfer a other nite of NO one on,
read 3 players in a zone max,

me and my 2 mission buddies for like 2 hours this nite just said to hell with it and given up on finding more people,
group broken up,

its a repeating a them, ghost towns, every where
show me a full group running anytime but prime time, and i be shocked



the joke on anyone who tells me am wrong, and freedom, what i was told, once a bery busy, find groups at any time server, is a shell of its former self,

i guest the devs will have to correct their mistakes in due time, sense the player base overall seems to be in decay, while the old timers, live in a diff reality of any new players lft
