Enough is enough.... do something about MA/AE pls

Ok this isnt a complaint at anyone or any group of players or anything like that, so dont take it anyway personally but...

I have been playing CoX in the EU for many a year now, moved over to the USA servers due to low populations in the EU and was really getting into the game again - a lot of fun to be had..

Then MA comes along and the farming that many knew would happen. Now, I dont care if people farm or pl or both, its up to them, but what I do care about is when its so damn hard now to get a team that firstly isnt doing AE missions, or if they are arent doing lvl 54 boss farms. Its madness. So many in Atlas just looking for great xp.

So we have heard about nerfs of certain critter types, and now... badges.. For heavens sake, no one really cares that much about loosing some badges - if no one has them you cant show off for having them so doesnt really matter, and the majority of people seem to do AE farms/missions for xp or inf/prestige.

So whats an easier way to deal with it... Come on devs... CoX was built with mobs already, they consisted of a boss or two, lts and then minions - why are the devs allowing people to create missions with mobs built solely of bosses.... Change that surely.... Yes people will pl and farm, nothing much is being done about it, and I dont care if they do, what I would love to see is people playing the game through the zones, teams that dont complain when they dont get 6-10k xp per kill and level twice or more in a mission....

and do we really need an auto sk system on created missions, low levels are playing lvl 40 missions and lvl 50 missions, on the back of a team that can actually hit. Turn it back to having to sk

Bring COX back please

Now I know someone will disagree. Cool, its all about peoples opinions, express them, maturely and for once lets not let this go into the gutter.. Thanks

The game is unfinished. The game remains unfinished until they stop adding new stuff.

Do you want the game to be finished? I, for one, find that the last 14 Issues have continually added new, enjoyable content to the game, and have no desire to see the supply of new material ended.

Wow, not even close to what I was saying. I guess I expected too much.

Dictionary, foo'. Dictionary. Unfinished can mean only a limited number of things.

Also, felt like saying foo'.

It used to be pvp'ers that were the source of all evil in the game. The devs took that opinion to heart and ran them all out of the game.

Now it is the farmers that are the source of all evil and the devs are making a stand against them.

The farmers know that to kill them they need to drastically alter the game. Which, unlike the pvpers they were able to kill by changing all the rules in their confined zones and dropping a chemical weapon in there. It has no impact on pve.

The war against farmers will be long and bloody. There will be many casualties and the collateral damage will be extensive.

Whew!

Good thing there isn't any such war, then.

The only place farmers are being told that they aren't welcome is in the Architect.

Accept this truth, move on, and lose the martyr complex, please.

(I recognize that the war on "AE farmers" has had collateral damage, and I sympathize with those who got hit, and think that it is a horrible miscarriage of justice that these people weren't taken care of, and publicly, before their three day bans were over.)


New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)

you'll see. MA was just one battle, a small skirmish in the war.

I'm sorry, FallenAngel, but I've spent most of my time in AE since i14 released and haven't farmed once.

Please don't equate AE with farming; a lot of us like to create and play custom content. There are a lot of creative people in this game.

Now, that doesn't mean it won't impact finding teams; after all, I just noted I've spent most of my time there, so I'm not out and available for teams. However, you wouldn't miss me -- I rarely do pick up groups. Mostly I play with family and friends or solo. (mostly duo with my wife.)

I asked for it, did a personnal thread, aka" FARMERS WANT A FORUM" as in pvp ers, builds, MA SA's, etc...

Turned to be instantly popular. they locked it.

On the very same day, i got a mail from a dev saying "this wont happen", and a Mod created one.

Well, no. You asked for a whole forum, where as the mod opened a thread. There is a big difference.

I bet this is just a decoy.

Another shame about the way they treat customers.

Funny enough, i play the game too.

And im obviously not the worse on a PuG.
Good Farmers are good players.
I wont tell what i think about farmees.

I am so sick of this entire debacle I honestly wish they would remove MA from the game, just take is all out, strip the badges, I don't care..... just make it gone.

I feel that this is the most serious danger the game has ever been in, due to punitive actions of this and that sort, which have been discussed to death... friends are leaving over the nerfs, let's just roll it back to the way it was and let people try to heal.

The whole thing is a giant negativity-sink and.... and I know they're not going to take it out but I really feel that would be the best outcome. This is going from bad to worse, as in floods of people leaving.

I don't want my MMO to die. And it feels like the MA/related issues are killing it. I'm just very sad

That reminded me of the old "Brought to you in Technicolor." they used to say for TV shows back in the olden days of yesteryear.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

I don't. I had to get up to walk over to the 13" TV to see what was on the other 2 channels.
