I believe Concord handled criticism with the same room temperature IQ responses as a few of the ones above. SMH

Re: AoC isn’t Punishing its Frustrating

The divide between players that play games for pleasure vs players that play them for meaning in life is interesting.. and sad. Cruel world.

People have some strange expectations.

They aren't going to take people off of other aspects of the game to deal with issues some people are having on some servers.

but acknowledgement goes a long way.

No it doesn't.

If you are having an issue that is appeased by it being acknowledged, you really don't have an issue.

I have a testing issue that needs to be acknowledged so I know its been seen and can move off to other things.
Honestly the gatekeeping in here is wild.

Re: A Small Amount of Feedback on Ranger - New for Alpha 2

I think i would have to agree with all these.

Here what i see with rangers
Excels at range combat = No, they get beaten by every class in range combat, fighters, tanks self sustain will cause them to win a straight up bow fight, bard and clerics can heal there way to victory in range and mages just demolish them with shear dmg

Excels at mobility = no not realy the only thing rangers have going for them in this department is vertical mobility every other melee class has more gao closers than ranger have with gap creating so it basicl ya melee fight with fighters anyway at that point even if u get range they pull bow ut and win anyway :P you can run away from a tank and cleric though but thats about it though.

basicly 0 CC in kit, you get a silence which is clunky to use and roots and dont do anything cause apparently u can just use a charge while rooted it seems and charge right through root field or beartraps and not get effected.

Marks definetly need changed the 1 in cooldown across all of them are brutal and no u shouldnt be able to cast all ur marks at once however i think using 1 mark should make the other marks have 10-20 second CD can use muiltipul in a fight but not all at once.

ranger currently loose every fight in a 1v1 situation against any class and can only relay function when there left alone in a fight but ur still better off having a mage instead since thye excel at area's where rangers not so much.

I just gave an example. I know that these are the other teams thats why I dont get some excuses like "they dont focus on that for that phase" which is just cheap excuse.

I hear you, I just know Dygz is coming from a place of explanation not excuse. Though one can often sound like the other.

Re: Wars, Nodes and Scarcity of Materials

The atrocious early level miner experience improves somewhat when you hit level 10 in mining and obtain your cert and tools for apprentice. Mining feels bad partially because how the resource timers and resource respawning seem to work atm. It's too easy to camp known resource locations, and one can only wonder if some people haven't already developed bots for resource gathering.
