I'm a little concerned...

I17 has been out for a couple days now, and I've noticed something that really worries me. There is a distinct lack of the doomsaying and whining that generally accompanies a new update. Now I know you're thinking "But Narf, isn't that a good thing?" and on the surface it looks like it should be, but if you think about it it's quite alarming.

The reason people whine and complain when there's a new update is that they love the game, and are worried about its future. So obviously, the only reason there are can be so few complaints is that people have stopped caring about our beloved game!

We need to do something about this, at the very least to assuage my fears that the game is losing support. So please, everyone, if you love this game, let the world know it by complaining about everything you can and foretelling the DOOM of the game.

If this new trend of contentment and happiness continues, I'll be forced to conclude that the game is closing down in the near future.

Yeah, the forums have been greatly improved of late.

I hope some of it's new players as well as returning players - showing new people around is awesome

Other than the "small tweak" to BotZ, most of i17 were things I was looking forward to. Nice new hero/villain arcs, new Positron TF, Demon summoning and Ultra Mode.

I think the only gripes I have are some of the bugs in i17 and the change to TF diff. Even so, pretty minor and low on the priority list.

That's because I love this game. I have to do everything I can to let people know how much I love it by claiming that it's dying every opportunity I get. Normally I don't have to cry DOOM! since so many other people do it for me, but this time I feel I have no choice.

There wasn't much complaining after I12 either, because it was awesome.

I17 is probably up there as one of the few issues that come close to it, because QOL is everything.


A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!

I know when I played CO and a bunch of people were complaining, they always got shouted down and told that everything was ok. Now, hardly anyone complains on their forums.

Are we playing the same i17?

Seriously, if I were the devs, I would've given up on the game by now, the players seem so impossible to satisfy.

You're full of crap. Once the major bugs are worked out i17 may end up being awesome, but so far it is a big pile of crap.

Someone called for doom and gloom...... Allrighty then!!!

Well Dual pistols is rather weak compared to Ar and Archery.
The markets had a complete breakdown and no ETA.
Posi has a secret plan to save the markets for going rogue but he doesnt know what it is yet.
MA is still inferior for rewards to almost any other method of leveling/earning inf/inf.

Thats about all I got at the moment

We are at a kinda very wait and see moment right now, we still dont have alot of the information on whats going to be happening.


Boycott Ncsoft if they close down Coh.

Par for the course round here. In any anonymous environment it's easy for people to snipe fearlessly
