  • Funny how the mods wheel out nonsense to defend this. I understand it's their job to defend even the most grievous of misdeeds when perpetrated by the ones they work for (*cough* volunteer for) but seriously there is no defense for this. The statement that has been produced as evidence of misdeeds where the tarmalune…
  • This game would have turned out so much better if the devs actually played the game as a normal player would instead of taking shots in the dark and killing half their player base with each clumsy shot. Oh and getting rid of a certain person who has been making poor decisions and ruining the game for everyone since mod 6.
  • Is this really any surprise? I told y'all since the professions debacle that sent half the population packin' that was only the beginning. If you think this is the last anti-player thing they will do you are deceiving yourself. The only thing running through the mind of the man who shall not be named is new ways to squeeze…
  • You guys are expecting way too much from a very small team running a game that has been left behind by others that have come to market. Blade and Soul just touted 2 million players since it's NA release a couple weeks back. NWO is lucky to have a few thousand at this point. They blew it in their attempts to monetize while…
  • Thank you Dr. Oz for your insightful relationship advice.
  • Poor guy, must be hard living in this world of negativity and feeling you must champion all the things you hold sacred. Might be best to take your own advice and just move on, leave these threads to the folks who have relevant feedback to give instead of raging at "the dissenters" for having opinions different from yours.
  • The abhorrent handling of leadership right on the heals of the disaster of Mod6 was why I was on my way out. The ignoring of most of our feedback during the testing of Mod7 was why I left. Mod 8 was why I didn't come back. Mod 9 is why I think this game is no longer a major concern for PWE as it obviously is on a…
  • It's OK FC, you needn't worry about me or my hobbies. If you want to defend cryptic and it's decisions like you are a paid astroturfer, that's fine. Just don't tell me how to react as I watch the good ship Neverwinter piloted to the ocean depths by people I'm not allowed to name. You also need to understand that there were…
  • This once was a game that I enjoyed and put a hell of a lot into. I was passionate about it. I am desperately unhappy that the game has continued down this path. If you are totally cool with the state of things then bully 4 u. If you disagree with me and think the devs are totally in tune with the player's desires and not…
  • What would the point be? Anything asked for by players is ignored. Bugs top the list of things that are ignored unless directly affecting the PWE bottom line. As for good things coming in the new mod, perhaps you haven't heard....
  • Frankly I'm surprised there are this many players left to get so worked up over this. NWO is in maintenance mode. They churn new players to pump them for cash then dump them when they get to the end and say "Is this really it?" If there was ever a time to join everyone else who has moved on, now is it. This game is casuals…
  • If it is indeed true that the only endgame content coming in 9 is a warmed over CN then there is simply no denying that this game is entering maintenance mode and only concentrating on grabbing and churning new players who don't know what's going on in here, grabbing whatever cash they are willing to spend and casting them…
  • Only folks left here are the diehards that have nowhere left to go and hold D&D dear enough to forgive cryptics many, many missteps. They will tell you it's all worth it, and for them I guess it is. When it became required to have a sub do well in the game I packed up and moved to greener pastures. BnS is very engaging if…
  • Dammit, Shicoff is still there? Guess it's hard to swap captains on sinking ships but still gotta hope! Shicoff is so funny with his "no spoilers" when he gives barely ANY details. It's more like not wanting to make promises the team can't keep. As was said earlier if they are bringing any dungeons back they better be…
  • I had kept my expectations low but was still hoping for something to reignite the spark that I felt in the early days of playing the game. Hoping for enough to make me want to return. Instead we get more evidence of Cryptic's total disconnect with what making a fun engaging and rewarding experience is. It's not worth my…
  • Just another case of jackassery by a few ruining it for all. And yea, no surprise that folks who don't care about personal performance and improvement, to the detriment of their team would be all for this. They don't like being at the bottom of the charts, but not enough to improve. Now their tender snowflake egos will be…
  • Cryptic's grand plan seems to be to make players feel that VIP is a necessity (putting vital items in the TB store and ganking them from WB and ZM are good clues). You can only get TBs from lockboxes and can only open them with keys. Removing any other methods of inexpensively procuring keys would make sense if you really…
  • Making good games is hard work, takes a lot of time, takes a dedicated team of talented developers and costs a lot of money. Neverwinter is a F2P game with very short schedules to pump out modules in concert with WoTC releases. The current dev team is not the guys who built the game (are there ANY original team members…
  • If I was the executive producer of this mess coming off the disasters of 6 and 7, I would be working on my resume right now. Between him and Shicoff they have driven this poor game right into the ground. We tell them we hate HEs, hate the booooring grindyness of everything, PVP is broken, everything is too expensive and we…
  • Well this sucks. I had very low expectations for Mod 8. Was already considering not even coming back to try it. But this sounds all so half-assed. So phoned in. I just got done downloading the patch, but now I don't think I'll even bother launching it. Maybe just for a few minutes to hear all the vitriol that PE must…
  • The wallet warrior thing is a bit of a myth. You will find that most of the top tier players got most of their gear from unlimited AD stockpiles they accrued either thru CN Glory Days grinding and selling (doubt much of this bounty could remain now though), Playing the ZAX/AH meta, or most commonly flat out exploiting the…
  • I would like an event where everyone takes turns chopping that big tree in PE into thwacking sticks, trying to get the best one. Also all the devs are there on their toons as well. Once everyone has their +1 Stick of Thwacking all the way up to the Legendary Sundering +6 Nightmare Branch of Thwacking, the devs line up,…
  • The problem is that the matchmaking doesn't use a round robin method for seeding instances that require players. It will continually funnel players into the groups with the fewest players (ie the ones least likely to succeed) while the ones just needing one non specific class will have to wait until the myriad of instances…
  • I have a horrible feeling that Mod 9 will be limited to a guy that appears in PE who will give you a funny hat to wear if you complete a set of tasks such as running 500HEs, 100 skirmishes and 200 PVPs. Just based on how little gets added with each successive mod. Hoped Mod 8 would be enough to bring me back, but what I've…
  • Myself and others explained back when the severe staff cuts happened that content and bug fixing would be the major victims. This small team just can't keep up with realizing the world that WoTC has contracted with them to create on the timetable that the P&P side can move. I'm sure there was an adventure area started and…
  • My only wish was that they worked some on the core mechanics behind their PVP implementation prior to launching something so huge and deeply ingrained within the core game that required near total buy-in from the player community to get it's momentum going. Leaving the current bustedass matchmaking system and gear system…
  • Right now I'm hoping they are looking at Mr. Shicoff's customer retention and engagement efforts since he first came on board promising "Hope" and "Change" and "looking into it" only to provide empty promises, half baked economic changes and more EverGrind moments than you can shake a dwarf at, and they are thinking about…
