Why is it that a game with such a big company backing it, does not give any clues or comforting words to its players about what it plans to do with the game ie. bugs and pvp. I enjoy pvp and pve both equally, but after the ilum xploit and serious faction imbalancing on my server, as well as others, I often find myself leveling an alt because I do not want to deal with pvp because of the lack of quality. Mainly in ilum. I really only have one suggestion which is to give a buff to the faction that it is outnumbered like it was in winter grasp when there was not enough people to fight. A simple hp/expertise buff could help those factions who are seriously outnumbered and help them get kills/get armaments.
Now for the pve. My guild, as well as others I'm sure, have found many bugs during certain operations. The pylon puzzle in hard mode eternity vault, the disappearing tiles on soa, the no damage to mobs on the 1v1 event before soa, the occasional random death from gharj, defeating soa on hard mode and only getting column gear. I'm sure there are a slew of other bugs, but these are the most annoying. Its sad the most challenging part of an operation is trying to work around the bugs. Especially the pylon one...omg painful.
I'm sure that bio ware is aware of a lot of the issues, but the most frustrating for me as a player is to not hear from the developers or any other member of the company to reassure and give any clue what changes are coming and what is being planned for all of this. RIFT IMO has gotten that down to an art. The people over at TRION have gotten the formula right for fixing bugs and changing mechanics or bus that would otherwise make a game not enjoyable, like the ileum incident. All I would like to hear is "we are going to do X about Y" and for god sakes fix these little bugs that I'm sure wouldnt take more than a hot fix. Whenever I played RIFT no more than a day went by if it was something serious and they are constantly throwing out hot fixes to make sure the game is as enjoyable as it can be. So bioware, I please ask for the sake of ur fans and players. Please please, help your players by letting us know what's going on and what your planning or at least have steady feed of hot fixes to at least help ur pve players since it is obvious pvp is not a priority.
Also the guy in your new video seems very disengenuine when he was talking about listening to the players needs and this game is for us. If its for us, then help us.
