Now im speaking as a person who is staying so with that out of the way . . . . .
The reason the majority have decided to leave (for now) is that they are fed up with the constant "soon" talk that is thrown around all the time. If you remember over a year ago we had posi's announcement saying MA will be with us in the summer, issue 13 wasnt even released until just before christmas.
The whole of last year seemed like a filler year/building up to something big, which is what we were led to believe. On both here and the US boards it was constantly mentioned about issue 15 being "the issue that moves the story along greatly". Now unless there is a LOT of hidden stuff not mentioned in the announcement then EVERYBODY has a right to be annoyed.
Issue 12/13 didnt go down well BECAUSE of such little content, and from what we've seen so far (from announcement again) theres even less this time. Two taskforces (one if you only play on one side) is the entire content of the issue. A few cossies/faces + a taskforce should NEVER make up a much hyped "big issue".
Now again if this is the old issue 14 with the new issue 16 coming out in the next few months then they need to let us all know really. They should have told everybody a few weeks (at least) or months ago that this issue is the quick buildup one to the main storyline issue 16. However as it is, we are led to believe that future issues wont have any storyarcs but only taskforces (BIIIIIIG mistake, how badly does cimerora need the content!) which no longer screams to the player "play me!!".
Remember the thing that made this game great to begin with, the ability to not have to TEAM to experience the majority of the content. Taskforce issues will now allienate the solo/casual players.
Btw yeah i dont like the sound of issue 15 so far

Well i have been around since CoH Us beta and at this point i think CoX goes in thw wrong direction.
Imho MA destroyed the whole game.....
The devs thought it would be a cool idea to give player made content to us, BUT....
Players ALWAYS try to abuse the system (MA farms)....
Imo the players who create good stories are rare, most played cause of action, player made stuff is for those who like playing simulations like SIMS SIm city etc.
I15 new TF is totally wasted, players will run it maybe 2 times and then leave it be, why run a TF when you can get better rewards in shorter time with MA ?
During the last 10 days there were mabye 6 TF/SF run, i guess thats why so many veteran players leave, they are pi**ed.
They lvled their chars the normal way and now there are 50s who leeched to max lvl in 5 days who havent a clue how their chars work or know squad about the game.
I enjoyed doing Tfes but now with the veterans leaving who actually did them, you can play solo or join farms and thats it.
Not much fun left in paragon, at least for me.

I think he means the majority of those leaving, not that the majority are leaving.

I actually know people that have left the game twice or three times, but as you said, they always come back... k, then maybe a little amount borrowed would be enough this time...

I honestly don't know what were you trying to achieve on this thread Def, however, as stated many times, MMO's are a business and as such, customers just decide when the product is appealing to them or not. For now, City Of seems not to be appealing for many people, who subsequently are leaving, it's worrying that most of them have been here forever and are well renowned in forums, however, you "give more time" plea is totally out of place since such time costs money.
People leave and come back, I've myself done so in the past and will probably come back sometime in the future, either here or to US servers, but in any case, it will be when I find the game appealing again with some new stuff, and I guess otehr people will do the same, but it's is childish to ask for players to spend money on something that at this very moment they don't find worth spending.
You should be ready to pay for a whole bunch of subs when doing pleas like that, maybe the SOON™ for groundbreaking stuff is really soon, but then again, maybe not.-
But anyway, for the sake of humouring you, I'll give more time to devs, I'll give them all the time they wish until they come up with exciting stuff, then I'll renew my sub

It's not that surprising that many of the leavers are old-timer veterans. The game's just not new and shiny for them anymore, they've done all there is to do (discounting the MA), and there's not much that can be done about that other than providing a brand new game.
Some vets are still around, I've been here since beta and I'm still playing away...mainly cos there's still so much for me to do!!!

Now in a more serious tone, I'm as disappointed as you are, but I say lets give them a bit more time, as it's mentioned in the information about the new TF/SF, Hero 1 Time capsule must be opened in November 2009... maybe in time for Issue 16 or 17?? Who knows, maybe we get what we're looking for and we've been promised so many times by then. I think it's worth keeping active accounts, although it's just for vet rewards
