Not everyone has lag issues. Not everyone is complaining about every single detail.
There is a ton of us in-game having an absolute blast playing. Getting new gear. Attempting new dungeons.
In my opinion, and thankfully I am not a moderator, a lot of posts are being overly whiny. There is quite the sense of entitlement going around. However, I am starting to see more and more people that are simply enjoying playing the game speak up to silence the abundance of nay-sayers.
Just yesterday, a few people in the legit channel were going around saying how this game is ruined and no one should play anymore, and for the first time in a while, quite a few people stood in defense. It was really nice to see.
To the people complaining, or have a complaint... if it is bug-related, submit a detailed bug-report. When referring to the bug, link back to this detailed bug report. Saying "the bug about X has been reported on about a dozen times" is not useful... if it has... link to it.
If you're unhappy with a portion of the game, explain using some sort of rationale. I'm sincerely tired of hearing the whole "I could kill these guys a month ago... why can't I kill them now?" or "This game is ****, can not even do dungeons now you die so fast" (meanwhile they are in full level 60 gear).
So to the newcomers and the current players, this game is a lot of fun. It has its quirks, but so does literally every other game out there. If you are looking for an "easy" game, I would recommend Sims 3.
Otherwise, Happy Hunting! Slay on!

The game is currently broken. You can twist it however you like, but in order for me to spend my moey & time on something is needs to be delivered professionally.
And since a lot of players are complaying, maybe, just maybe, there is some fire and not only smoke
paladin is slow, but in t1 gear i have no problems with 5man hes, i usually run a few when i have time so more ppl can finish the quest, the dungeon damage is a bit weird, with mobs sometimes dealing like 5x their normal damage, but at least daily quests are more fun when you have to dodge stuff, not facetank everything, some ppl have fun soloing the hard content like 5 and 10man HEs, there is finally a reason to run dungeons, had almost frogotten how much fun is running hard content with guild, since the last somewhat challenging content was VT near its launch, brings back memories of fun we had running old t2 in mod1, after that ppl mostly did daily quests, ran that dumb tiamat, with no way to enter in a party and too many ppl for guild runs
ofc there are bunch of bugs and stuff, but that happens with every game(though it does happen with neverwinter much more often than with other games)
The game is not "broken". I can run any dungeon with any group. I can solo any area, including heroics in IWD (havn't tried WoD heroics yet). I get random lag once in a while, but nothing debilitating.
So what is broken? Why is the game ruined? You guys draw metaphors as if they actually mean something. This game is not the titanic, this game is not a burning building. PvE content is challenging, PvP is actually fun without the rampant 1-shoting. So many changes helped the game immensely. Many more changes will continue to improve this game.
General despair and entitlement isn't going to serve anyone any good. So please, keep it to yourself. If you find the game boring, why are you still playing? If you don't enjoy playing, why are you still playing? If you think the game is broken, why are you still playing?
Because you KNOW this game is friggen fun. That's why. I never expected sweeping support, considering most people staring at the forums right now are people who want to voice their "upsetness" because they "deserve" something.
Mod 6 has brought some of the most fun with friends and guildies I've had in a long time.
Lagward Rise ?
Dailies in wod ?
Mobs hit so hard you need a **** full party to go through...and you know what ? There's a considerable number of lone-wolves, you know...people who like having solo fun playing games, then team up with friends and randoms whenever they wanna do something different...now it's kinda forced..dungeons I understand...and hell...I like the idea of complete team compositions with support and dps classes...but feeling I need 2-3 people to do a DR or WoD lair...jesus no...
ESOT ?
Boss's Aoe can kill a 80K HP CW with his shield on frikkin tab.
CC ? or other T2's ?
****...if a mob sneezes on you it one shots you
Or the other ?
...oh wait....no more dungeons!
Post mod 6 leveling I find myself logging in every day by force of habit then realizing that apart from ELOL I have nothing left to do in this game...and it's killing me.
a) Because hope dies last
b) Because mobs in T2's have absurd damage no matter what you say.
c) Because apart from doing stuff with friends and guildies some people enjoy the casual solo PVE play.
e) Because others (luckily not me, I've chipped in my share but not much) have invested a heck-ton of money in the game and now they feel they lost their money's worth ? they're somewhat entitled to an oppinion since they are a customer for a now somewhat broken end product.
Specifically on "General Despair" and "Entitlement" I have to say that anyone who has put his good buck in this game has been granted General Despair by the current state of the game and is Entitled to voice his oppinion as a contributing customer.
I'm not playing.
I'm waiting for them to fix quite a few things, most notably the 60-70 leveling & gearing process, mob difficulty - some hit for 100k+ THROUGH shield. How about Dread Ring and Sharandar equipment? Game instability, which you can attempt to deflect all you want by your experience, but the majority of players it simply lags to hell and back.
Or how about more than HALF of the end game content has utterly disappeared?
You must mean 5% of players are having a blast. Who the hell would enjoy gutted frustrating content..?
You earn less, have to grind more. NO ONE ENJOYS THAT!
This thread wouldnt exist if there wasnt, http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?904061-A-Message-Regarding-Neverwinter-Elemental-Evil.
I agree sometimes the players go overboard; for example when the server dies; the company jumps on it right away and tries to get it back up., but still people post craziness.
But for a Mod/Expansion release, too many issues to be apathetic towards them. Sure give cryptic some time to fix what they can, but the players have every right to voice their opinion.
Edit: BTW I do agree ingame actually more about the doomsayers. Anytime Im in PE, half the chat is about how bad people think it is, I usually just ignore it, but its pretty constant. I usually keep most things in-game light hearted and positive, but post concerns on the fourm, cause well this is where you post them....

No one's saying you can't enjoy your assortment of bugs, however, you're empirically wrong with half of what you're saying.
Multiple classes have broken, bugged, or unusable Encounters, Feats, Class Features, or Dailies.
Multiple classes have broken, bugged, or unusable Paragon Paths.
There is no semblance of class balance in PvP or PvE.
The new elemental zones have a memory leak problem.
Some of the old areas (MC, eSoT, etc) have varying arrays of lag problems.
Also, no, you're not clearing any dungeon with any party. The day I see you clear eGWD with 5 DPS, without bug abusing, is the day I hand my account over to you.
Go Cryptic!
PS - I quit.
Lag in spinward was a little annoying. But it wasn't unbearable when i went through it. I actually thoroughly enjoyed spinward, I hope to go back soon to just kill stuff.
I can solo almost all of WoD, I did cult prison solo on my SW.
eSoT... i had a feeling someone was going to bring that up. CC the drakes (DC and CW are good with this for long-CC), and focus the boss. Killing drakes gives the boss a buff. Stop being a scrub and learn mechanics.
Did ToS the other night... i could take ~3 hits from a mob. I'm not a tank, and shouldn't be tanking, and therefore shouldn't worry about dying if the tank is doing their job.
I am having a lot of fun running VT, eLoL, ToS, kessel's, eSoT, IWD dailies, heralds, domination, GG. Farming areas for certain drops to AH.
Having "invested" (although this is a terrible use of the word) money in to this game does not ENTITLE you to an opinion any more than any other player.
I've never owned a legendary anything. I have been slowly working my way. I am close though
Although my profile says I joined ARC in 2011, I've only been playing since mod3 or 4.
I am in full blue alliance gear, with JC rings.
Sorry for ignoring the rest of your post, because I think I've answered most of your comments when responding to other people...
No class balance? Everyone constantly says how SW is the most underpowered class in the game for PvP and PvE... yet I come on top for every single dungeon and nearly every single PvP. People need to still learn how to play the new mod, figure out stat allocation, stop using augment companions, learn to CC, learn to dodge CC, learn to predict encounters for PvP, learn to know WHEN to go in and when NOT to.
In regards to clearing a T2 dungeon with 5 dps... that's an idiotic request. Dungeons are not SUPPOSED to be doable with 5 dps.
Is Mod 6 perfect? Nope, and there is a lot to fix. However I think it's better then it was, and I'm enjoying playing a great deal more.
:cool:
