I'm going to wade into this:
Thanks to the Homecoming team. You guys are doing an unenviable task.
To the people loading hate on them already, simmer down.
1) Quit telling people that other people are "doing fun wrong". If someone wants to power level to 50 in a weekend and then pleasure themselves all day standing on top of Atlas, hey, to each their own. If they want to take 3 months to level to 50 by slowly soloing the content at Level -1 difficulty, also great.
2) The Homecoming team didn't code CoX. NCSoft/Cryptic did. So bugs dating back to an engine that _was dead for 7 years_ aren't really their fault. Give them a moment to start fixing stuff.
3) You're not paying a subscription. There is no webstore for costume pieces. The P2W vendor didn't ask for your credit card number. If they want to make AE content all 0-XP, remove the DFB trial, and remove the color blue from available toon hues, they get to do it.
I'm just glad it's back, and I hope I'm online when next month's donation requests open up so I can toss $50 in. This has made me insanely happy.
