    Christ, what'd they do to the Crystal Titan?

    Irrelevant.  There's no point in even giving the PC an HP bar if you're going to circumvent it with oneshot mechanics.  Even HAMIDON doesn't instagib people.

     

    I'm not dealing with that shit.  Period.  I don't care what excuses you offer, it's a bullshit mechanic that should not exist in any game and I will not run that trial ever again.

    Yeah, it's a great trial. I'm a huge fan too. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.

    That's not what I've seen.  Everyone was airborne including the taunter, I landed my controller just long enough to drop an acid mortar - IMMEDIATE Foot Stomp.  Dead in one shot, right through Ambrosia.

     

    I am never running that bullshit again.

    That's not what I've seen. It's a classic trial that's easily soloable too. Just follow Veracor's advice and you'll be fine.

    It's almost like some of us have been pointing this out for awhile, but since we're not part of the club, we're labeled conspiracy nutjobs and pushed aside.

    Hyperbole much? Or exaggeration just to make your point? Why not use examples of this if you're confident it is occurring? Perhaps a direct quote from a thread where this has happened would make your point more succinctly. Better yet, share this behavior that you've found with a moderator who can then take appropriate action instead of slipping it in to a off hand remark.

     

    You and I, and everyone else on the forums know that if there was naming calling like that it would be summarily removed and the purveyor of said content either warned or given a temporary ban.

    That post is from 3 years ago.

     

    Sorry, you don't get to just point to that post forever and be like, "See, they posted a roadmap!" Yes, they sure did. It's out of date. What's unreasonable about asking for an update?

     

    Look, an updated roadmap, or plan for the future, or dev blog, or whatever you want to call it would be beneficial for all of us. That being the case, why are so many of you against it?

    I'm not against it or for it. Maybe a forum goer can create a thread and update it personally with any links to Homecoming dev or staff posts regarding direction of the server. 

     

    I mean, I did that with updates on Homecoming's legal status talks with formerly NCSoft (check my signature on desktop view). Just takes an interest and some free time, then a player can share it whenever someone wants to see what the latest info is.

    Two thoughts. The first, is that more than any other change, how people disagree here, ingame, and the forums has done more to discourage me than any change itself. Now, yes, it is the internet. People are going to people sometimes. But I had hoped that our smaller community might be above that. Alas that doesn't seem to be the case. To me its a mix of various things, being miscommunication, lack of empathy, or just plain ego. Perhaps that last one especially in some cases.

     

     

    "Some" player requests. Most certainly not "all players." And "some" requests seem to be implemented, but the majority have not. I do hasten to add that I think we both agree that it's a good thing that not every request is implemented, as well, it would be quite the circus I expect. But from where I sit, it seems only "one side" of the fence seems to get the changes they want. I mean as an example, what if an argument was made to made to have to earn costume pieces/parts again? Or pay upkeep on bases? Or to actually make farms better instead of worse? I expect half the community would dislike those changes. As with any change. But let's not pretend that every change has been welcomed by the entire community with open arm's shall we? For me, I have liked and disliked the changes about 50/50. I liked some of them, eye rolled at a few others. And a few really had me wonder what the heck they were thinking.

     

    And in my view, the server seems to be leading harder and harder in one direction, which I do not consider a good thing. And if history and other games are anything to go by, then I expect it to continue to do so.

    Harder in one direction? Has the direction changed since Homecoming started up? What do you mean by direction?

    I'm most excited for AoT final final final season, Demon Slayer with its amazing visuals, My Hero Academia because it's a great super hero anime, and...

     

    ... I actually just might get around to watching Bleach for the first time, now that they've released their final season as well. 

     

    Edit: Actually I've never seen The Mountain Climbing Girls, my bad!

    I'm excited for all the new and returning players that continue to join the community. They're getting a great experience for free and a well established community that is very helpful compared to other games I've played. 

     

    And it is awesome how I keep hearing in game how much players enjoy the HC Team for their update to the Halloween event, continued updates to the game, and their direction with the server.

    so its worth while loading it up with 6 procs then?

    That is a bit of a loaded question - if you are doing it for character concept or just for fun, sure it can be slotted with a decent number of procs and you can enjoy it that way.

     

    For any other purpose, I'd say it is not worth the slot investment.

    So many demands on your time, but you had plenty of time to jump into this thread and scold a player.

     

    No. Your obvious disdain for the people who donate money to keep this server running is.

    That was abandoned long ago. This is a factory.

    I got asked on a TF why I didn't have Team Teleport. I told them I didn't have the cash. I was told:

    "Pharm moar"

    Everyone LOL'd.

    PLAY the game? Why? Basic XP is crap. Do double XP for no influence. Need influence...well they have that mapped out too. Sell X, Y or Z for big bucks. All the build guides have high end Enhancers. How do you earn the cash for those? Well, you farm. You will NOT get it by playing the game itself. New players MUST get into the factory mind or do without. There is ZERO reward for playing the game normally. 

    Hey that is a neat opinion. I think you are using some exaggeration to get your point across, so I won't be facetious with you. This is a game, not a factory. Or, this is a Wendy's...? 

     

    Thank you for the post though!

    Strictly speaking, yes, but mostly people are using it to specifically mean setting a +4/x8 custom made map that you are particularly suited to soloing and doing that one map over and over. No one cares about farming SBB, nor Hamidon. Just trash in the AE, lmao!

    Yeah exactly - finding the most efficient way to get that reward. 

     

    The only thing I don't get is, what about when playing the game is the reward itself? I have easily spent hours, even days of in game time just moving around the various zones across this game world looking for holes in geometry to get out of maps. Absolutely no tangible reward, but I find it fun and relaxing. 

     

    Didn't mean to tangent there!
