You may not have specifically asked for this, but people have been asking for new bots for a while. And I think we came up with something very unique.
I don't set in-game prices either, but occasionally we put a high varium price on something specifically to prevent too many people from using and abusing it, as was the case with enhancements.
Portuguese support is something corporate wanted. You do realize that we're part of a parent company, right?
I wasn't saying that players didn't want new robots, but one update which only introduces a bot is too small of an update. I would rather wait 2 weeks for a complete update, or you could have just chucked a few missions in there just to make it seem bigger. I think the Yeti's unique as well by the way but I don't know how overpowered it is because I don't do PvP.
Sadly that doesn't work. This means that only the richer people will get the best items and other people will feel left out. Those who feel left out just waste varium and find themselves ripped off because they waste varium on the bot and realise that they can't get other stuff they need. And apparently Titan wanted to charge you based on the amount of time it took to make the weapon. Wonder if he got his way with the Yeti :O.
Oh, I didn't realise that AE wanted you to include Portuguese support. Did they give you a specific time limit to implement it though? Couldn't you have just put it on the to-do list?

I realize that they're not to everyone's tastes, but Nightwraith and I were talking about some Krampus-themed armors for the release (I can't guarantee anything because it's a big event with cutscenes and 30 quests written, and new characters and worlds, but I'm sure you don't care about that).
I know you keep bringing up the lack of permanent rares. Unfortunately, you're telling people whose only solution for you is "hey, T.600 wants more permanent rares".
I do care about the new missions and cutscenes actually. Missions are fun to do except for the ones which encourage dummying (the challenge ones, of course). Otherwise, I think everyone is glad that missions were added to the game. It isn't just me who wants permanent rare, I know other people who want them. And plus, wouldn't it be fair if you made an item which was permanent rare, looked cool but didn't have as many stat modifiers as some of the other weapons? I mainly want to buy these rares to show off, lol.

There's a vicious cycle between profits and support from corporate. That's all I'll say on that matter.
As for the balancing, I don't have a good answer for you. Ask Ashari or Titan.
You didn't need to release the three new classes because they would either be amazing or destroy the balance in the game. Sadly they destroyed the balance (tac mercs) in the game. Tac mercs still haven't been nerfed yet. It isn't even fun to battle any more because all I see is 5 focus builds or strength builds wherever I go. I don't mind how they balance it, but players are just looking for fun.
