Cryptic, thanks for catering to our wishes and needs

I'm actually stunned by the way people refuse to show any form of gratitude on these forums.
We've gotten a massive patch that solves quite a few problems, makes things easier and better.
Prepatch people were crying about wanting to get free respecs, which in all fairness, seemed like the right way for cryptic. Now, they've listened and we're all getting it! YAY! Yet noone seems to be appreciative in the slighest.
I understand DC will have problems with the astral shield nerf (I play a DC too) but honestly, it was getting boring with just AS to rely on. ADAPT, you'll be fine since it forces other people to play smarter too. They've increased GF threat, they can start doing their job.
Personally, I'm happy.

You make it sound as if rebalancing the two wildly OP classes is an issue. Until groups start asking for 2DC 2GWF 1 GF then I think you will be okay.......
Rouges are meant to deal high damage. With this patch we lose 40 percent of our damage
Meanwhile GWFs are still complaining the patch does nothing and GWF is still worthless. Guess we just have to wait and see
A patch list this long represent a significant amount of work and frankly it's all good things. A free respec was in order, and they delivered. Major balance was in order, they delivered. Lots of bugs needed fixing, they delivered. I got a bucket for all you babies that think this is a nerf patch to cry into. These changes were very necessary.
The only thing they didn't seem to address is that Gear Score is useless (if you think otherwise, your probably just a min/maxer and trying to explain why someone with closer to 9k that knows what they're doing would be MUCH more desirable than a min/maxer with a light wallet but 12k).
Anyway, I agree with the OP. This patch is great.

I'm impressed how many things they improved in this patch, really. The only problem is fixes of exploits that have been going on for at least two weeks should be critical fixes, hotfixes applied a loooong time ago. Due to this, forgive me but I will not be screaming Huuuuraaayyyy for the new patch.
+1.
I think some people are more inclined to sycophancy than others. I do appreciate the game, an appreciation I have expressed through the dollars I invested.
So no, they don't get my thanks, because it's a business. Improving the product is good business sense, assuming turning a profit is their ultimate goal.
If they're making respecs free, it's because doing otherwise was an appalling idea that was ill-recieved by an MMO community accustomed to being able to change out their abilities.
Considering PvP skill sets are not viable in PvE, and vice versa, to charge for a respec means to severely limit a player's options. It is a bad idea. They don't get a pat on the back from me for realising they've been caught out in a greedy over-reach for micro-transactions.
40% of the base damage from one Daily attack , and yet even with the damage cut it still does twice the damage that the most powerful GWF daily can do even after the GWF being "buffed". Quit complaining you have other attacks and skills use them. "Oh I can't one shot this boss/other player anymore". Get used to it we GWF's have to use hundreds of hits against enemies you can take out in 5.
I get your side.. really, I do.
Thing is, I didn't ask for anyone their thanks, I just want people to stop crying over trivial things because it's starting to seem like everytime they fix someone, alot of people jump on board for cries.
I have a GWF too but don't expect to do the same damage as a TR
Rogues are meant to deal high single target damage. That being said when theres lots of mobs around TR's should not be at the top of the DPS rank for the dungeon/skirmish. GWF and CW are suppose to be the highest AOE damage. TR's do so much single target damage right now that it nullifies the CW/GWF AOE damage. TR's could kill 10 mobs 1 at a time faster than a CW and/or GWF could do all at once in a dungeon (by 1 at a time i dont mean 1 on 1 i mean TR's hit 1 mob at a time and still manage to kill 10 faster than a GWF or CW when they are hitting all most of the time.)
I think its wonderful that TR's have been nerfed. They was in need of it. However as with all nerfs i hope they have not went overboard on the nerfing. Only time will tell. Theres alot of variables to take into account at all times. Its hard to find a balance to where u dont make something else useless.
The internet gaming community as a whole i think largely is negative because all gaming companies make all kinds of promises about balance etc and all these other things and they never happen. People still seem to forget this game is STILL IN OPEN BETA. It will be until the 30th. Give cryptic a chance to break the normal among gaming developers. Give them a chance to actually show they care about their customers. If all of you spent even half the time actually doing something productive that you spend complaining i would bet you would have alot more fun.
It really can't be said any better than that.
Well, it's not helpful to characterise criticism as being "whining" or "crying" simply because YOU are satisfied with the game. It's their game too, and they're not satisfied. If you respected this diversity in opinion, you wouldn't be disparaging them quite rudely in this way.
You may not agree with a complaint, but just as you said in your post, those people issuing the complaints aren't asking for you to agree with them.
That doesn't make their complaint illegitimate. If we were all silent, nothing would ever be improved. I wonder how many improvements you enjoy today were won through the complaints of people you'd have called whiners?
