All you players spouting off about out with the old in with the new . . . how bogus can you be. They didn't just add Draconis, they changed the whole game. They changed the way you do everything from missions to grinding, and even almost destroyed any need for clans. But, not just in Draconis! No, they did it to the whole game. Why is it necessary for them to change all the other stuff to add a more challenging system at the top? Yes, all of eventually will probably figure out how to do Draconis sooner or later or get the help in doing so. But, at what expense?
Why would you make Draconis tech so exorbitantly expensive instead of a progression in costs similar to the other systems? Why does the cry rates and BP drops on Draconis mean we have to change all of the other systems also? Why is it necessary to change the game so dramatically that the noob player is not even playing the same game we did? Why are they trying to slow down the game? Don't they realize that by leaving the game as it was, when one person conquerd a system he would go back to help others? They did not leave the game, they continued playing.
Are you aware that now you have to grind as hard in Vega as you do in Draconis? That instead of the fun game we have enjoyed, raved about, and invited our friends to come play . . . the noob is now stuck with a long drawn out "boring to the point of irritation" game to play. I could give a Rats Tail if they added a new tougher system to the top of the game. I am concerned that they have made it so disportionate to the other systems, that it's ridiculous. My concern is the devistation gamewide under guise of adding the new system so that they could make a few extra dollars. A few extra dollars they may pull in now, but when the tally is counted later this month they will realize a significant loss just because of what they have done to the rest of the game.
I am happy if you are enjoying the game still. And, I seriously hope others do so also. As for myself, the game at this time sucks! There is no fun. There is no player interaction. There is no laughter. All there is is a continuing irritation from them changing a fun game to crap and not doing anything to fix it. ANd, then they are continuing with this ongoing change to the game with new changes to come in the near future that take us further away from what we had. No, my friends. . . They are not bringing on improvment and player challenge. They are destroying a really good game. And, what you may also fail to realize is that you and every other player in the game presently has made contribution to this game that made it what it was. From the player that was a pain in the anatomy to everybody, through the clan rivalries, and to the players that kept us laughing, everybody contributed. Guess what? They have effectivly destroyed your contribution ande the game will never be the same.
Do you realize that there are hundreds of player complaints, questions, and concerns raised within this forum that nobody from Splitscreen has even read so they could respond to it? I do not know about you but when my children have a question or complaint about a product, I tell them to contact the Maker so the company can respond to the issue. But, look at this! How many of you have had a paid Splitscreen employee resond to any complaint made in this forum? NONE! (this is not to slight Thom Delloda, he has always been there for the game) But nobody else from Splitscreen cares to listen and act in this situation. ANd as far as I am concerned, they took my money under false pretenses, offering me one game and giving me somet5hing much less. It's simple, nobody from Splitscreen cares about what you think about this game, if you stay or if you go. They are confident that they will get new players to replace our friends that have left the game, that will find the new game acceptable and life will continue on its merry way.
I believe they will find a different future. I believe the noob player is going to get bored real easy and without senior players participation will quietly leave the game unsatisfied with the experience. I believe the new player is not going to be willing to fork over the cash to play the game as slow and boring as it has become, and the profit margin that was here will be gone, and soon therafter the game will be but a memory to those of us that loved it. I tell you one thing that is going to be an absolute . . . If they don't fix this game and do so quickly, you hot shots talking about how easy the game is up in Draconis, will be the only players here. And, I hope all five or six of you have a grand time. (I do not mean this offensivly, I seriously hope you are capable of finding enjoyment in the game)
