Dear Eric,
As a MMORPG player I expect to be rewarded for my success in improving my skill, that being said
the cxp system is a farming system, it only rewards those who farm cxp, and that is in humble opinion, boring!
And I'm not even going to write about the RNG on command crates ... 3 times pants???
I need implants at this stage! my raiding team is suffering coz my bad luck on grinding!
I loved the introduction of achievements, loved the scale up of ops, but this cxp system ... needs to go, it's a bad idea!
Not funny, not exciting, not interesting, but boring ... and the RNG ... pisses me off!
Everyone farms the same thing over and over to get a quick raise on cxp... it's killing the game by making it boring!
We need endgame multiplayer content, new operations and new challenges!
And we need more players to do them!
I'll throw in a couple of ideas to make this game more interesting for old and new players!
One simple idea (since I love the old operations) , make the old ops interesting to run by using the already implemented scale system, cap the level of those ops like you do in planets to their original levels. Allow any characters that have the proper levels to participate on those operations in any mode and scale down those who are too strong (use the stats of the recommended gear for chars that are of the same level and the optimal gear for those who are higher for example).
If you do implement the scale down of players on older ops you can get more players to do operations by removing the interdiction of preferred status players on old ops, consider it a free sample to operations for those players.
Who knows? They might enjoy and sub to get the new one's!
Still more players to play the old endgame content...
Rewards from operations, even the scaled one's should be adequate for the difficulty they represent, also give something unique, legacy gear, colored crystals, you pick! They have to be interesting and usable. Something to show besides the achievement.
A game needs to be interesting otherwise dies!
Reward Skill
Release new multiplayer content periodically
Fix bugs faster
