 Hi. I've not played for about three months. I could troll through all your posts etc but, that's not really going to tell me anything conclusive. So, I would like to here your personal review. As is often said on here, please don't look at this as an opportunity to flame shout and moan. A constructive appraisal would be nice :) Thanks.

I think omega was a mistake it was made out to be something it never turned into. The balance has been pretty awful since the get go yet not enough has been done about it. P2w was supposed to be a thing of the past if you believed all the hype it isn't the case with azrael being the main example which i would guess has scared a lot of the f2p players off. And not getting enough bang for your buck will have scared most of the pay to play players off. Its not just that though i think something was overlooked making all the items essentially the same was a great idea at face value but it made the games lack of content very noticeable as their is very little to do and very little point in having much gear i guess it just enlarged the boredom factor. And again i bring up the balance because this i find is EDs biggest issue in my eyes. 3 things need to be done

-Get rid of pay to win completely or fully reinstate it ( you can't sit on the fence or neither side will be happy)
- Eliminate juggernaut or make it optional (I honestly believe that if you did a poll in game you would find this mode is responsible for quite a lot of the new players quitting once they hit the juggernaut wall)
-Lower the range for levels you can face in all the modes if you intend to keep stats and HP the way they are. ( level is way to much of a big deal now to potentially face someone 5 levels higher.)
- Lower the luck factors change the way first turn works and just all round fix the balance.

 Prize Codes > Omega starts > Awesome! > OMG Str Merc are OP! > Nerf > GYT starts > OMG Tech Mage are OP! > Nerf > Supp Merc are OP! > Nerf > Massacre is OP! > Nerf > GYT Ends > Several balance adjustments > Egg Hunt comes and goes > OMG low levels win too fast! > Arborgeddon begins > Game gets balanced > Tech Mage gets buff > OMG Tech Mage are OP! > Now we're here...

That just about sums it up. Throughout it all, many awesome items (weapons, robots, armor) were released as well as several achievements. You missed a lot of fun times in-game. Not sure about the forum since I wasn't too active here in that time span.

They have been a disaster, everything that could go wrong went really wrong in this phase. I don't know how this happened but I can assure you, it won't be fixes anytime soon. Just sit back and wait til they finally fix it!

@ Xendran

I'm sure they will let you do that sooner or later, it's only a matter of time before they succumb to common sense reasoning.

I don't know about you guys, but the 5 focus era was my favorite unbalanced time in the game :P

To summarize, there were many nerfs and unnecessary buffs.

And people are still mad because of luck :P

@ dual thrusters

here is how you get rid of luck

1 every skill do one number worth of damage like Plasma bolt and fire ball. Then make it so defenses also scale like this meaning instead of 35-40 (example) they have on flat number. By making all damage and defenses have one number there will be no more need for the Random number generator. I say this because if an attack does 72 damage, and you have a set 40 defense the match will always be 32 damage.

2 next thing is the removal of blocks crits, stun, and deflection. These things are random and don't come at a fixed rate where we can control them and if we can't control when we do these things luck will run rampant. So I say get cage the luck monkey and throw away the key.

3 remove shadow arts from the hunter class and all luck based cores from the game. Replace them with cores that are like chairman's fury and the remade Thorn assault and Jack o fire and replace shadow arts with a non luck based passive.

with these 3 changes luck will be toned down a lot and the only thing that would be luck based in the game would be who goes first.

@above
the going first could be resolved if there could be a draw...

I think luck shuldn't be remooved compleatly because then it would be just maths. I think it shuldn't be as important as it is now... E.g. opponent goes first and stuns. By the time you get a turn you already have 2 turns disadvantage.
It shuld be more like you get stunned but you can still use any meelee based skill. Luck still existing but not affecting the fight so much.

This was intended for people to discuss the progression of the game over the last 3 months. However it looks like some have gone off-topic and cannot contribute to said discussion in an appropriate manner.

Locking up.
