T-Ray Q&A with ISK (Addressing vet concerns) - Page 3

Open beta for a F2P game in my mind is: Cash Shop with possibility of character wipes. If character wipes occur then Station Cash used to purchase things in the shop would be refunded. Would have been nice to have that happen but I guess they don't need it? Or they just ran out of time to do something like that.

If you turn your own phrasing around to the same from the developers perspective you may be able to appreciate their point of view.

for example

We're changing the metagame, we're improving bases, just look at Amerish. We're addressing the driver/gunner concerns by adding in certifications so people who want to can have that as an option. We feel sanctuaries drag people away from the fight but once we have more continents that the 3 at launch we can start to implement the idea of home continents in due time. All the things we are doing is to evolve the game and make it an enjoyable experience for everyone wanting to play, but players of the original have their own opinion and dont want to evolve. The Game is evolving despite them. Thats why we struggle to take them seriously any more

Thats easy, the source was yourself

You gave an unfounded opinion, which I quoted. The 2nd highlighted box is your own opinion replaced with details openly available in a format so you get an insight as to the flip side of what you were saying.

Psu is becoming the last bastion of freedom for the guy carrying a cardboard with 'the end of the world is nigh' written on it, but no one is listening

It was a real beta while it lasted. How can a rushed date make all the efforts in Beta phase totally meaningless?

And yeah many things they changed / added recently should have been there in the first place...so what? How can that kind of logic make all the changes we've been watching so far entirely meaningless? If they really not listened this time, then the state of this game should be far more worse right now. Far more worse.

I'm f***ing not trying to be a SOE fanboi, but cold truth or not, some of these comments in this thread are ridiculous.

Never said it was meaningless at all, you completely misunderstood me whilst falling off the high horse.
