Making the Player Base Happy

Here is the Dev's to do list that needs to be done to make the player base happy

-create new playable content
-but before that work on powersets, probably telepathy
-but before that, stop what you're working on and make bug fixes
-stop working on bug fixes, get some new high level content out
-please nerf devices
-balance every power in the game

I'm pretty sure they'll be able to make everyone happy. Shouldn't be an issue.

    You got the order wrong, and some of those are repeats. But aside from that, it's a pretty short list so... yeah, they should be able to do that.

    I'm pretty sure all of that was deliberate. If not, it still got me to laugh.

    All we need is something new to complain about.

    That honestly seems like the ONLY thing that makes folks around here happy.

    Admittedly, I'd be happiest if they started by working on re-balancing powersets and, more importantly, archetypes.

    I'm serious. Some Silver ATs are such utter shyte at low levels that a new player picking them practically guarantees they're not coming back for a second play session, and anything that's such a hinderance to a potential expansion of the player base needs fixing yesterday.

    Stop working on new power sets, fix Telepathy.

    Stop working on Telepathy, get the Foundry in here.

    Wait, don't do the Foundry, just fix bugs.

    Forget the bugs, we've ignored them this long, give us new vehicles!

    Nobody likes vehicles, ignore them; just work on Hideouts!

    You have to work from the bottom up, like a house.. you can't start thinking about what sort of coffee table you're going to get when the foundation has giant gaping holes in it and the walls are filled with bugs and vermin!

    So come on guys, get your act together. Update the graphics, then you can worry about all that other nonsense.

    NO! Hair types for beast heads. And while we're at it, cuter beast heads. CO is the most furry friendly game I've ever played, and they need to take advantage of that market!


    Also, quit working on beast heads and start working on Telepathy!

    None of the requests made are really BAD... but let's be honest...

    Some powersets SUCK and need a second look.

    Bugs are rampant though this game.

    Actually, to be perfectly honest- if they just got rid of that chat ban crap, I'd be at 70% satisfaction.

    So you say that you be at 70% satisfaction if the chat ban stuff was fixed. That begs the question; What percent of satisfaction do you have with the game as it is?

    Also, what is included in the final 30% that would make you 100% happy with this game? :smile:
