Losing your touch? The next patch better bring a lot of fixes and it better come fast.

There hasn't been a single person who actually thought that was a good idea - remove it before releasing this patch.

Yeah these new changes are cool, but nothing to address the things in the game a lot of us want to see fixed such as the current state of PvP and AvA (and selfishly, the special AH items that have been promised for months). I think consumables will add even more frustration to PvP as many people tried to tell HiRez. I thought tournaments were being added this phase as well, guess not? As it is, Protocol is barely playing, none of this will bring them back for long if at all (except Nomad and I will be playing ultramax for rainbow dye til we drop ). I really don't want to be a downer, but I hope some of the other changes come soon too or I won't have an agency to play with.

Well, they increased device responsiveness, increased Bionics cooldown, they changed the PvE minlevel requirements, they fixed the bugged boss spawns, added bot kills to the scoreboard, and a bunch of other minor fixes that the community has been whining about for weeks now. Since this was part 2 of a new content patch, of course it's mostly new content. I mean, they aren't going to stop a mostly completed update right in the middle to do balancing tricks... who knows how the new economy, content, and items are going to CHANGE the balance? After they gather enough data on how the balance pans out from a few weeks of this patch, THEN they can address old issues that remain and new issues that crop up. _________________ HiRezDuke wrote: I've forwarded this extremely important issue to every person on the team...
