Complains about toxicity, calls people that support the nerf white knights. You can't make this **** up.

They did give an answer. Companions weren't supposed to be God mode that 4.0 made them. I doubt forum threads had much if anything to do with the nerf. Maybe a bunch of people cancelled because the game was stupidly easy? I know I did (my sub runs out on the 25th). I'm sure they'll do a moderate un-nerf in 4.03. /thread You spent a lot of time on the forum defending God mode trying to shut people up that didn't like it. Why weren't *you* in game playing? Anyone on either side that thinks the forums are representative of the player base is delusional. Every study I've ever seen about any MMO says fewer than 10% of the players ever visit the forums, much less post.

I haven't tried 4.0.2 and likely won't, so I'll take peoples' word that this is an over nerf, but I refuse to accept some sort of nerf wasn't needed. Hopefully, they find an acceptable balance before too long. Eh maybe for later planets. I always soloed H2s on the first few planets and skipped H4s that I couldn't find a group for before I left, and I was always able to solo the 2nd H4 on Coruscant by using heroic moment on the boss. One reason I was higher level leaving Coruscant/DK post 4.0 than before was now I can't out level the content. Last Rep character I started I was half way to 26 leaving Coruscant, and that was doing no FPs, space content, or PvP. Before 4.0 I'd be 20-21 leaving Coruscant, and I always did Esseles twice.

I don't doubt they had beta testers, but probably not enough of them. Besides, plenty of bugs reported during closed beta before launch made it to live launch.

They waited two weeks before doing the much deserved companion nerf. They're likely going to wait at least a week and analyze their data before deciding how much it needs to be undone, if at all.

They *really* upped leveling speed in 4.0. Content in 4.0 was easier than ever, *and* God mode companions made it even faster. Even if people aren't exaggerating the nerf, they could leave the difficulty as is, and you're still leveling faster than before 4.0.

Population was nosediving already before the companion nerf...

Maybe the over nerf was in response to mass cancellations over how stupidly easy 4.0 made the game, and another wave of cancellations will get them to find a happy median

Supported the game all the way. Took a break from 2013 until now. Seems legit lol

Not necessarily. Could have subbed anytime in the first month and quit, and still have that title...

No one gives a **** if you're a Founder. So am I, but it doesn't make my opinion more valuable than anyone else's. Grow up.

Let me guess...you don't think telling people to turn off companions or intentionally under gear is telling people how to play? Is this your first MMO? If you think only elitist basement dwellers could solo almost everything in this game before 4.0, or that leveling in this game was a grind, you should probably stick with FarmVille.

To suggest you should intentionally gimp yourself to make the game enough of a challenge that you can't just randomly mash buttons to beat it is ignorant. The game was never hard or time consuming to level in. 4.0 made pre-65 content trivial. Did they over nerf? Probably, but par for the course.

I've reported credit sellers, and have gotten an email from the same person a week later. BW doesn't care

There's already a decently sized thread on page one for cancelling feedback. I guess special snowflakes (especially founders LOL) think what they have to say is so special, they need their own thread...

When you cancel you can tell them why. First through pull down menus, and then you can write a brief explanation.

This is why I didn't care about missing out on early access...because it was just really open beta, and **** like this would happen. Unfortunately, they didn't get it fixed before "official" release, and have now alienated players that thought the game was simpleton easy first, and now not only took away easy mode (which always causes rage), apparently made it unnecessarily hard. Most of us probably saw this coming, but it's still hilarious and maddening at the same time.

I actually cancelled before the last patch because the game was pathetically easy, and told them that in my exit feedback. I was always able to solo H2s even with my "meh" gear, but I had to at least pay attention. 4.0 made them a total faceroll joke. Can't really say I'm surprised they went overboard and made them worse than before 4.0 lol

No one can argue with a straight face companion nerfs weren't needed, but in typical fashion, instead of the nerf stick, they bypassed the nerf bat and went straight to a nerf tree. GJ, BioWare...it takes mad skills to piss off ALL your customers.

You guys lasted until NGE? I rage quit after CU.

I didn't really care about locking optional companions behind PvP or whatever as long as you could still progress the story, but if you're also locking other companions behind the ones people would skip because they hate PvP or certain other grinds, that would be a *huge* mistake.

I know, right? 18 days left on my sub. Maybe they'll pull their heads out before 5.0

Not sure why they did that. The main missions are purple and stand out, so it's not like you would (God forbid) do side missions by accident.

Stealths past mobs on missions as much as possible and complains about XP lol My last Pub toon was level 25 leaving Coruscant, FFS. If anything, I get more XP now than before 4.0 even without 12x XP because I can't outlevel mobs like I always did before. Not sure if trolling or entitled ADD kiddie.

I've always been able to solo H2s at level or 1-2 levels over, with one or two exceptions...usually with at or near level blue modded gear. Before 4.0, I at least had to be careful with my pulls. Now...not so much. Now, I just steamroll the instance.
