Did they say they’re reverting back to the old format (level remain the same) or just tinkering it so it’s less demanding (level still rises) to compete against?
Bear in mind that an extremely small and unrepresentative sample of the total player population ever posts here, and we’re listening to data and input from lots of other sources as well. Even when you see a bunch of people in the forums united in believing a particular change to be good or bad, or even to be having a particular effect, that experience is sometimes not shared by the majority of players. That said, we’ve paid more attention to the opinions of the folks here than any other group, as you represent our most passionate and dedicated players, and your insights have influence on the direction we take far out of proportion to your numbers.
And for that, I thank you. I know that you guys are hard at work trying to make this game the best it can be for us and for yourselves, I just think it’d be good to have an official “this is how we feel” from you guys. You answer the threads well but not everyone is going to go thread diving to find all the posts made.
Thanks again for your effort!
As far as I understand, we rapresent, on average, the “hardcore” player base. A much bigger group would be the casuals, those playing maybe 10-20 minutes a day on average, and we have a relatively minor insight about how they feel.
And how much they cough out the cash that fuels this live game, probably much less per person but still a lot, if not the most, as a whole.
Then again think about this. We play the game more. Much more. We feel on our skins what works well and what is broken, way before the casuals. And come here to report, some in more analytical, some in more passionate ways.
We are the casuals that liked the game enough to become hardcores, so please don’t let us down now.
