You've done it again and screwed us on dilithium but don't worry I won't be pumping anymore money into this game and hope the rest us do the same.

If you are wondering what I am referring to look below:

I have been saving rep marks and rep mission turn ins for some time now. I know this will fall on deaf ears at Cryptic but this is BS!!

    So they create a Dilithium weekend to make players log in more.

    Then they cut one of the biggest reasons that people log in during a Dilithium weekend.

    They seem to have also nerfed the multiple Omega shard crafting (can now only do only one up-grind per slot instead of the previous 5).

    Now all they have left to do is reduce the specialization points received from grinding argala.... :mad:
    Are we there yet?

    Keep finding ways to TRIBBLE us, here are some other gaming companies that don't totally TRIBBLE you at every turn:

    http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/
    https://marvelheroes.com/ (this one is okay and free to play)
    http://store.steampowered.com/agecheck/app/72850/

    and other games on Steam.

    The bug is that the omega crafting limits you to 1 at a time.

    Based on the context and the immediate post above me, I felt that was clear enough.

    I as many many other people in this game have a lot of time and money invested into this game. I've run fleets, helped the player base fix cryptics screwup''s I (as in we) work around all the blockades you've put in the game thus far. When are we going to stop using words. They don't listen.

    We need to figure out a way to get a MASS protest IN-GAME and stream it to every site we know and make it known we are tired of the grind. They do not deserve our loyalty. How many fleets do you know? How many will join the cause? Can we get 5000 ppl to put in tickets all at once over and over? Fill ZONE / websites with propaganda? What can we do folks?

    I know I'm done with half-assed broken coding that you have to fight not enemies or explore but fight lag or RESEAT BOFFS instead just to name a few. I've lost at least 30 great player - friends to Cryptics "hidden" restructure into a money grab or grind your TRIBBLE off for a year or find a exploit to help you.

    Can get put aside the trolling and get together and make a PROTEST DAY? Twitch / stream it and post it all over the game sites? They can't ignore that can they? Has it be tried b4?

    Be careful what you wish for. Geko stated in the last Priority One Podcast that Argala is paying out 2x more XP than intended and will be nerfed shortly...

    I'd be amused if the queues started having more people if Argala got the nerf bat like that. I doubt it would be the case though.

    I been playing Marvel Heroes sinece Beta and bought a founders pack. Its pretty fun game and really fair.

    The MH Forums the Devs are always posting and answering questions. The other day on twitch they did a thing for charity. One of the devs ate 15 hotdogs. Each hot dog ate they donated money to a charity.

    Also the guy who made Diablo 2 David Brevik is behind MH...

    Thanks for the Info ... was planning on finishing the Romulan Rep with some toons, during the weekend ... now I rather play other Games ... see you in S10 ... maybe ...

    PS : Cryptic, you forgot to nerf the Dilithium Mining Tickets ... since "hoarding" stuff to get better Rewards is supposed to evil these days ...

    Didn't he also say he's grinding Argala non-stop?

    Does that make Geko an exploiter?

    This patch had another nerf. They increased the high score drops while severely decreasing the chances of rare/vr drops form omega minigame.

    BAD, BAD, BAD CRYPTIC!

    Even if it was a bug, the fact the official announcement didn't include this restriction an now it's been added AFTER the event Go Live is a terrible business decision. You should be honoring your "misprint".

    This is only hurting your reputation and giving ammunition to the people who accuse you of lying/cheating/etc. In this case, they are right and you can't possibly spin it any other way.

    Big loss of faith in Cryptic here.

    Yes but of course the only way to get ahead in this game is to spend money or grind your life away.

    ..

    So are they going to extend things to make up for it?

    P.S: They have re-revised (screenshotted) statements - its clear they DID intend it.

    Keep up the great work Cryptic! Your missteps never upset me...they only amuse me....and they seem to be getting better!

    On the heels of another recent failed update...in which the forums lit up like a Christmas tree...you manage to make the most ill timed decision you could make...the mark to dilithium nerf...

    Not only do members of your development and technology team seem to consistently upset players ...but now...your marketing team? Could this decision have been made at a worse time!?

    WTF are you guys thinking!?

    This level of marketing ineptitude is remarkable!

    Again ...keep it up guys! Because just when you think things couldn't get any worse........
