The axis are planning a walkout. They are tired of the tier 0 imbalance that has consistantly lead to the defeat of the AXIS early in the game.... case and point, 6 day campaign... A large percentage of the AXIS best and largest squads are perticipating in the walkout. The demands are simple. -The 109E4 moved to TIER 0 -The Spitfire Mk1 Moved to TIER 0 -The D520 moved to TIER 0. Reasons, the 110C can not handle the single engine aircraft that the allies posses at that tier. Which has a trickle down affect on the game. Without air control, the Germans can NOT use the 88 in a ATG role, and the Stuka cant perform its Close Air Support role. Then there is the fact that the allies at that point then can bring in their bombers which are FASTER than the 110C (in game). For close air support. The imbalance in the air leads to the imbalance on the ground. But some of the rats, DOC, dont belive this to be true. He insists on giving the allies more tanks at tier 0. And less ATGs to the germans. He insists on firing the WHOLE senior command staff of the german HC (OKW) for some petty stuff that happened and that was incorrectly handled by BOTH CRS, and the players with the problem. Yea this works in the favor of balance HOW? Exactly what I want to know there. |

Just ignoring the fact that the 110C has POSITIVE KD agains ALL tier 0 fighters.. Bf110c (DE) Hurri I (UK) 1,160 1,043 1.11 The players that he is talking about were removed because they refused to follow the terms of service of the game, even after being warned. Sad to se that the comunity isn't as mature as I once thought.

Whats true is that hodo is trying to organize a walkout. With very little success. The managers, artists, coders, and community managers of CRS are a small but very dedicated group. They communicate more with their subscribers than an MMO on the market. - including monthly team speak "Rat Chat" where our subscribers can ask any questions they like provided the question related to the discussion topic. Our development tree, because we are a small MMO, can take a long time to implement. Likewise, when we change things, we communicate with our base as to why we did what we did. Even though they may not understand it or like it. CRS employees also often answer player questions in our forums much more often than any other MMO. Sometime the answer is no but when can any MMO development team always answer. "Sure, we can do that". Hodo has issues with HIS perception of how the game needs to be setup. I do too. But I communicate in a calm and professional manner. I give ideas AND how they might be implemented. If the answer is no and the reasoning is sound so be it. I don't resort to using foul language or making real or implied threats. It's unprofessional and immature. As has been posted on the battlegroundeurope website, the OKW officers in question were removed for failure to follow their articles of conduct and complicated the situation with their refusal to respond to several inquiries. That's all I can and will say. Anymore would violate confidential e-mail, team speak chats, and telephone conversations with the people involved. We can't satisfy EVERY players request to add, drop, code, or modify a feature. If we did, the game would never progress. Are we making rapid progress? Not near as much as we would like but it's the best we can do.

Oh so its nice to see the RAT fanboys come here too... TOPD I am affraid, that DOC is the only one with a jacked up sense of reality. And as for how well the walkout orginization is going, well thats something you have as little information about as I do, AS it has not happend yet. We will see how it turns out when it does happen. But like all online things. I dont think it will be a HUGE percentage walking out. But even if it is 25% of the players then it is a large group of players that feel something IS wrong with DOCs game.
So comeing here and attempting to flame me will not work, because this is not YOUR forum. After all you said "We will be DAMNED if you use our forums for a axis walkout, so you best try and find another source for your outlets. " And I did. BTW welcome to MMORPG.com. |

If only the low-pop axis would stage a walk-out after tier 0 is over, the game might be somewhat more balanced during low-pop time. |

If being part of the Playnet CM team makes me a fanboy then I'm happy to wear that title. DOC has a fine sense of relality. I know him and speak to him weekly in person and via e-mail. It's not DOC's game. That shows how little you know about Playnet. It's Playnet's game - coders, artists, subscribers, community support, server support, and senior management. I'm well aware this is not Playnet's forum. But when I hear from subscribers that you are on this forum tell half-thuths then I will respond with the truth. As for your quote. I did say that I would not all you to use Playnets communication services to organize your walkout. I never said "You best try and find another source for your outlets". That's a lie. Playnet has no control of third party forums, team speak or independant websites. If you are going to quote me make sure you are accurate. I never flamed you on this forum. I simply responded to your post because I received several e-mails, from axis and allied players, stating that you posted here.

As far as I know 1775th hasn't heard about any walkout and even if one were to be organised we wouldn't participate. Not one single one of us.
I don't understand, if you're so down on the game, Hodo, why don't you just play something else? I got pissed off with GW after a while but I didn't launch a vendetta against ANet or go around trying to scare up a revolution and tarnish the game's image. I | |
