    This just in!

    Crush replied to my PM today and I got good news. The build they have currently on Preview is far from the complete version they have been testing internally. They just didnt have time to implement it all on Preview since they are still finishing up some things. He said that every bit of feedback we gave has been collected, assessed and taken into consideration. As a result once mod 6 is LIVE we will see a vast improvement on all that is Neverwinter starting with classes!

    - Total overhaul of GWFs in accordance with player feedback
    - Total overhaul of SWs in accordance with player feedback
    - no more broken TRs
    - no more swiss army knife CWs
    - Paladins who dont bring shame to the name
    - DCs who are..well not much will change there
    - HRs who are also pretty much the same minus the perma rooting
    - GFs who dont get 1shot by trash mobs in dungeons

    And so much more... Enjoy

    It is sad that this is a joke because it is all really that simple. Those things (and fixed pvp matchmaking) and you have a happy player population. Even IF those things made for an unbalanced game, they would keep their (content) players while working to balance the game. Those things do not happen, the players are incredibly unhappy, many quit the game altogether and the devs have to work on bringing them back by slowly fixing the listed problems.

    You said wut??
    Ha ha root that can be doge ok but if they nerf the root as a cc its buy buy Hr.
    We see but i wouldent suprice me if they did something that made root useless and killed the last path of the class.
    Sadly together with Gwfs Hr is prolly the most nerfed class with the most buggs among all nw classes as it is.

    Very well we see but if thats the only thing they will do about the HR class without the major bug fixed like no damage on at will crits etc etc it Hr will just be another leadership boot in the future .....

    I m not even sure there will be a friday patch

    At least here in Europe it's Good Friday, where we are supposed to not go to work, but to those big houses with those pointy roofs to commemorate the world's most famous execution...

    ...admittedly, IDK if this is an official bank holiday in the US. And even if, devs might be, erm, incentivized to cut that out this time.

    The module 6 preview has been a source of frustration for weeks, especially on Fridays. I just want mod 6 released, to end the dread.

    Just because a flaw from 2013 persists that keeps Repurpose Soul from proccing with 3 major powers, does not mean that the DC didn't get looked at... erm.... yeah.... nevermind.

    I used to be a programmer, but never a game programmer. I wonder if this game is in a state where-by fixing one thing breaks something else, which would make bug fixing a much more complex issue. This might explain such slow progress on getting everything fixed.

    I think it's closer to the fact that much of the architecture was built and designed by other who are no longer working here. Its sort of like the Foundry, the tools to make the game still exists so someone can still make new stuff for it. But the actual base assets which made the creator and what not are no longer able to be edited and changed as easily.

    i m not pessimistic at all..but at least fix bugs related to powers.
    half hr feats and powers do not work correctly anymore !

    yep , that's why we won't see a big addition to the game in M6 , i hope more good stuff will come later !

    it's obvious they fired everyone but a very junior level team that doesn't have a clue what they are doing. I look forward to whatever game the outgoing team members end up creating next, because they built a hell of a good little game here, just a shame the suits ruined it all. (as usual)

    welp so much for today fixing everything wrong with the mod 6 build. Instead it's going to be released in all it's broken glory (including what fixes they made today) and we have to wait until the 23rd for the BIG FIX.

    This times a million. It IS a good little game being ruined by suits.

    But then, we'll never realy know....

    He is doing his best to explain what he can. I kind of feel for the devs and I don't blame them one bit for any of this. If you want to figure anything out, the best bet is to just follow the money and the Devs have absolutely no control over that end of things.

    Looking at prev server condition, my prediction is 2nd delay of mod 6 launch maybe 25 Apr
    Looking at minor fix 3/24 they have done i start think that the reason they delay it in the first place was because dev want to focus on "X" launch thing and even now gateway still down
    we are no longer in priority here fellas

    So...

    Definitely won't be playing until the 'big fix' at the end of the month. Maybe not then if there aren't some fairly major changes. Plenty of other games to play while waiting for Mod 7...

    Aelar Hawkwind - Archer

    This is exactly the problem and it didnt have to do with the recent Cryptic fired devs. This is happening for over a year and a half, the initial designer/developer or at least a key designer possibly left/fired a few months after official launch of NW. Noone can know exact details but the guys themselves but i m so sure that a couple of suits drove this game from heaven to hell and i would like so much to headbutt them in real life cause they tampered with DnD, a lore which is loveable by MILLIONS of people. All in all a few ignorant people placed in key positions took a diamond and turned it into a hefty stone, all in the name of the dreaded free 2 play model. You could just MADE THE GAME WITH A SUBSCRIPTION (you still can), its the DnD lore everyone would pay for regarding of course the initial quality it had. But someone decided to try go the F2P way so they can make A LOT OF MONEY, now we sit and pray some big company buys cryptic so maybe there is a future behind this game..
