You could moan until the cows came home and the SOE top dogs still wouldn't inject cash into the game.
Um, no.

WTS - MXO Devs. I'd rather have the current *CENSORED* combat system reverted to before the last patch and all the devs quit than pay $15 a month to see the game get worse.

Qouted for HAHAHA.

And, sadly, truth.

I would vastly prefer CR1 over CR2 along with a balancing of the old Viral Deflection system.  I guarantee that this alone would go a long way towards compelling me to stay, because the original combat system, in almost all respects, made more sense than this one.  It had balance issues.  So?  Fix them.  You don't have to reinvent the wheel because you have a flat tire.

Still looking for Devs who can actually do their job. Kthx.

Devs must include their own PTS (Public Test Server).

You know what's funny is that you saw the title of the thread, yet you came in anyway. Not only that, you've replied. You wouldn't have to put up with our whining if you didn't even come to the thread in the first place.

Just my .02 info.

"If the lack on new content and number of typo fixes gets to you that much cancel your sub and stop visiting the forums" -- your words, not mine. /shrug

 

At any rate, change comes about when people voice displeasure. You don't necessarily have to agree with anything we say, but that doesn't make our points any less valid, does it? We've all tried the constructive criticisim approach (hell, there's a private forum dedicated to just that-- which has developed nothing but a new crop ot stagnant ideas.), DN1 is covered in it, or was, and it doesn't seem to yield any results. So, do we play the same game of generating wonderful ideas in hopes of making this horrible game tap into some of it's amazing potential, or... try something new?

To quote 33: 

there's always a 'But...' in these kind of coversations. Because conversations like this are like the conversations the cops have with a guy that's hijacked the plane while its still on the tarmac and is making demands. The cops respond with a string of plausible denials that don't sound like denials, but rather explanations why something isn't working, and as they go on it gets more and more implausible as they run out of excuses, all the while the SWAT team makes ready to storm the plane. For instance:

The plane needs to be refueled before it can taxi and take off.

The fuel truck has a flat tire, we're changing it now.

The flaps are stuck and it will take time to fix them.

The hydraulics are leaking fluid and we have to check them before we can clear you for departure.

We don't have a pilot available that's checked out on that plane, we're flying one in from Dallas.

The holding pattern is full, you'll have to wait for some planes to land before we can let you take off.

We need to de-ice the wings before you can take off.

There's a UFO hovering over runway One-Niner.

Ect ect.

What I think he's getting at, Vitty, is that the negativity is injuring the game more than it's helping it.

And I agree with you here.  Your points are no less valid simply because someone disagrees with them to an extent.  Indeed, that is, ironically enough, what the Matrix itself is partly all about.

I'm not saying what you're saying isn't true.  I'm just saying that such a raw truth can be too raw for some people SMILEY.

So, might I ask, what has being positive yielded us for the last two + years?

If by shiny bandana, you mean the same freakin' models we have just shaded in different colors, then yeah. I guess that counts.

I was just joking, but if you really want something, look at..
  • Formal Gloves
  • Formal Hats
  • Area K Trench
  • Hat/Bandana combo
  • Luggables
  • Typo fixes lolz zomg
  • Archive Missions
  • Archive Awards
  • Stat hacks, of all things!
  • Pills to change your appearance
  • The Sentinel's changed once or twice in the past year.. I think... =p
  • White Hallways
  • Org Areas
  • Et cetera, meaning I can't remember the rest.
Now, I know you're probably gonna post with little comments denying each of those veritable chunks of content, but that will probably just enforce my point. Probably. I wouldn't know, I forgot to make a point when I ran in this thread.
