1.stat flattening. just don't like it cause it makes me feel weaker than before and my skill points seem to matter much less 2.the new marks system. it makes synthetic 3 mods cost the same as 6 expert synth mods,it makes me no longer want to do older content because i get nothing for it but the same drops over and over and q times for older stuff take forever now if they start at all (i'm on uspc btw) i liked having 2 kinds of marks it was better imo, when levelling toons i would use the mot to by older synthetic mods that would be good enough till i could get better s mods or farm exos for mods. i used to run all the metro and gotham bounties every day just to get the 1 mot ,not cause i needed it but it was just nice to get that small reward for doing it but now i don't bother doing them anymore cause its just not as fun to do them for nothing same with older alerts and raids 3.vendor gear 3rd best yet again,i hated it in gu46 and i still hate it now ,it should be the best gear or at least allow you to reach the current top cr ,i don't like gambling for all my gear in elite raids that i can only do once every 2 weeks unless i want to burn replays (i don't) this just seems like a cash grab to me and not a very good way to keep players around 4.game seems to lag a lot more since gu47 5.pvp is still not not good ,it is better than it was but it has a long way to go imo.some powers still have huge advantages over others so fair fights almost never happen and theres no advantage to wearing pvp gear at all it seems it might as well just be a style since thats all pvp gear is good for. pvp was never good imo so i don't expect much from it points 1,2 and 3 are my biggest issues wit gu47 and most of the problems i never mentioned are results of the new marks or stat flattening so i left them out cause i'm not trying to write a book here just make a few points about gu47 these are just my opinions on gu47 based off my own observations i made while playing it,if you love the update good for you but i hate it and these are some of the reasons why. i started playing this game in 2013 and up until a month ago this was the only game i played because i loved it that much ,i have been legendary the whole time other than the 1st month of playing so it makes me sad to see the game going in this direction and i think it will lead to the games end and thats sad because it was my favourite game for a long time my sub expires at the end of june and i will not be resubbing i will be leaving the game for awhile or forever i don't know yet ,what i do know is i will miss this game but have fond memories of it when it was great
#3 is the worst imo I thought I read on here that the devs said vendor gear was going to be the same cr as drops but drops would have better stats? This matters to me cause with a pet am cr is VERY IMPORTANT.
I consider vendor gear 2nd best, not 3rd. There is no such thing as elite gear in T7. There is only set gear which is the EXACT same thing as the gear you get out of normal raids with the exception that certain pieces can be collected to acquire a set bonus which is honestly negligible.
Your problem. Is not stat flattening, it's CR differential. We had a leaguemate who before the relevancy change for AF2, wanted to go into HH. Mind you, he nearly had a full set of unattuned gear in his bank. He was told no because it didn't matter what his skill or powers were, his CR determines how much damage he does. Also, since there is no exponential growth in gear stats,110 gear is only marginally better than 108 gear. Since mods don't affect your CR the only thing you need to mod for is your crits. An extra 80 might per mod is a drop in the bucket when you have over 8k might. There is nothing wrong with this update for the reasons you stated. In fact, some of it is episode related. And PVP issues existed well before GU47. Look, the way we had gear progression has changed. Mods were an added bonus that somewhere along the line became more important to tier progression than they needed to be. Now, they are gravy which was likely their original intention.
CR Differential is the worst part of GU47. Take 2 players with the same power, same skill points/spec, and the same skill. Give the first one full 108 gear (vendor) and the second one full 110 gear (raid). The first is CR124 and the second is CR126. The CR126 is GUARANTEED to do 50% MORE DAMAGE compared to the CR124. It is utterly ridiculous and actually defeats the point of the Stat Flattening Agenda. If Tunso reads this, I urge him to remove the CR Differential or, at the very least, reduce it's effect ten-fold. Proof: Skip to 7:44
Dude, you're doing this whole "I quit" thing wrong. You have practically hundreds of threads before this to follow so here goes: 1. I'm using a list to fit in. You seemed to like the idea so I thought I'd give it a go 2. YOU NEED TO USE CAPS LOCK TO HIGHLIGHT ALL YOUR MAIN POINTS TO EXPRESS YOUR ANGER/SORROW. YOU'RE MISSING THE MAIN TRICK 3) You're whingey (like the other billion I quit threads), but where's the Teen style melodrama. If you're gonna go do it in a flurry so that no one will forget. Tbh 99% of people cba to read "I quit" threads but you ain't gonna separate you're departure from the Bazillion who've done so already on the forums if you don't add some drama to it. 4) You haven't used quite enough harsh words or insulted the devs enough. If you're going to quit like everyone else does then at least follow the script. 5) I probably say this on the very few threads like this I have posted on but: Toodly pip, nice knowing you old chap (doffs hat) and Good luck in your future endeavours splendid Fellow. (would post a meme but cba looking for one )
this is not really an i quit thread its my opinions on gu47 ,i never said i was quitting for sure i said i was taking a break and may or may not come back because at this point i just don't know,i'm gonna play some eso for a while and in a few months i'll pop back in and see how the game is then because this game completely changes every few months so everything i hate could be changed by then for the better or worse ,only reason i'm playing right now is because my sub does not expire till the end of june so i'm just messing around right now with new alts and stuff
The truth is that I liked more the game before the update 47. I hope that the game improve and realize the mistakes that were made. also I will keep me away from the game a time as well as many friends.
Everyone needs to understand 'stat flattening' is literally flattening the exponential curve of stats, not actually flattening stats. If you are already highly leveled, it didn't change where you were, it made getting to where you are less of a severe jump between tiers (mainly 4-5). Cr differential is what you're thinking of and even I'm still on the fence about being super bothered by it. we were already well aware skill points never had a humongous difference, now cr makes a bigger difference, specifically our cr compared to enemies. Cr was already tangibly the biggest difference before, so it's not like this is some new idea.
