So much anger in this thread.

I was extremely disappointed it was left out of i22, and extremely pissed that it'll be a month or more now.

That would be almost as cruel as whomever thought it would be fun to have staff and/or beast come out after the upcoming 2xp weekend.

Disappointed to hear no Staff Fighting for DXP. I'll live though. Personally I like the sounds 
Better than the original sounds imo, even if it wasn't what I had thought up in my head when they said "new sounds for Staff Fighting" in the beta patch.
As for Beast Mastery, was never going to buy it anyways. Sorry, but MM's just aren't my AT of choice, no matter how powerful and cool the concept seems, the playstyle doesn't suit me at all.
I'm sure I'll take advantage of DXP somehow though

I have a kat/WP brute and a FM/Shield brute to work on, but dammit. This is such a waste of good marketing chances.

No, it shouldn't be a surprise. People get angry over anything on these forums. It's just a game, the powerset will be coming out, it'll only take a little time. And you're not entitled to these sets, or even a reason on why they aren't coming out exactly when you want them out. If you really have your heart that dead set on one powerset in this game to the point it is legitimately making you angry, take a step away from the game for a week or two and do something else to calm down. Then come back when the set is out and be happy. But getting this worked up, tossing out swears, and saying you're "pissed" will do nothing to help the situation.

I will not be able to play at 2XP weekend...
But I dont understand marketing when it comes to release things at the market.
It is ready? Then release it! The sooner you put it at the market the sooner you'll be getting money.
I know things work on schedule but hold things like this will do no good.

They screw up, I stop giving them money, they fix it (or at least put something in beta for me to test,) I give them money, wash, rinse repeat.
I once said I'll be around when the servers shut down. I see no reason that this can't continue to be true.
Be well, people of CoH.

I'm sorry, you know a lot of people who will cancel over that? I honestly don't believe you, or we have very different notions of "a lot".|

I'm not pleased about this, but throwing a "I'm quiitting" tantrum over it is wildly childish.

As for ragequitting, how do you quit that which is free?
Cancel your recurring payment? Done, but I haven't quit the game.
Quit logging in? Sure, but you still can.
Quit posting to the forums? You could but there's still a few that are all access.
We do what we can. I come here, throw out my opinions, haven't a clue if they're listened to anymore or not, don't really care. I'm going to share them regardless. I like this game. I have for a very long time.
I'm actually more annoyed that there seems to be a trend of craptacular sound effects being added to the game than I am that staff won't be released before DXP weekend. Moot point as PS/NCSoft isn't getting another dime from me for anything until DA is fixed to my liking. It may never be. Life goes on. There are other games to play and I just finished tier8 on premium.
Meh.
Be well, people of CoH.
If it made an actual difference to them, I'd cancel my subscription. But since it won't and I'd just miss a reward token, I'm not going to quit over something like this. It pisses me off a good bit but I really shouldn't have expected anything more.
Besides, I'm more loyal to this game than Nintendorks are to a new Wii game, no matter how awful it is. Or CoD fans with a new modern warfare.

I don't recall Staffs ever being mentioned as being part of i22, so I'm not sure why you should have been upset about that. As far as I can tell, Staff was always meant to come out after i22 in the first place, though I may be wrong on that score.

Which is why they've been releasing video previews of it and had it show up multiple times in the official issue 22 trailer. Not trying to sound like a jerk and I don't feel self entitled to the powers but that's pretty messed up. Imagine if actual game developers were like "UH OH UH OH WE'RE RELEASING <X> TOMORROW...|

Staffs always meant to be released post I22.
I just hoped it was released this month,but seems like we have to wait a bit longer.
I cant wait to see whats coming for I22.5, I23... New SSA, more powersets and more costumes.
Hope they reveal a lot of that at the summit!

Uh, no one that plays this game would ever make any new characters that aren't staff fighting before double xp weekend? What? |

I won't be buying staff. I was excited at the idea of making a staff stalker... And excited, and excited. Now that a few weeks have passed and I've made two other stalkers while waiting my infatuation has passed. Maybe eventually, but I'm putting it off for a few months for the time being.
And I wouldn't know about how Beast Mastery performs, I've not touched the set.
