Going Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 2.4 is about gear grind. /thread They actually stated that the new gear will be achieved differently. Grind is mmo. So with that being said t-.- right here buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with that being said t-.- right here buddy If I didn't like gear grind I would play another game, this was not pejorative. I was just saying 2.4 was all about gear grind nothing else. Also, trid to translate t-.- on google... couldnt find anything. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am assuming you are referring to this Glad you like the artwork! We are pretty happy with them as well As for your question, I am writing up a blog post today (it won't be posted until next or or possibly the week after because it needs to be translated and rubber stamped by my bosses and their bosses and their bosses bosses and their.... you see where this is going ) that will explain this aspect of Warzone Arenas and more! Sorry for the tease but it's an in-depth answer and best to keep all the where, whys, and hows in one place. Cheers! Hopefully it was not pushed.

WarbNull Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 2.4 is about gear grind. /thread They actually stated that the new gear will be achieved differently. Grind is mmo. So with that being said t-.- right here buddy It's a mmo so sure it is about a gear grind I do not have very good hope in what they will be doing. They have just been to focused on the Cartel Market to really make anything good lately. The direction of the game is just depressing to me. With that in mind I fear this: It will more than likely be a a new kind of Grind called Cartel Market Grind. Or (CMG) for short. Basically you are supposed to pay a little here and little there through the Cartel Market for each peace of gear before in order to get the full set of gear. Then to wear it you need to pay another little bit of Cartel Coins. In the end the total cost of the Full set of gear is more than $10 total. After which you can add it to the collections for even more Cartel Coins. Sounds a bit pessimistic of me but hey they have not been very impressive as of ate. So I fear more Nickel-And-Diming.

Dev Post EricMusco Posted July 29, 2013 Dev Post Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hopefully it was not pushed. Alex's blog never had a publish date just a target, so it couldn't really be pushed The blog will not happen this week for sure. Based on our current process of review and whatnot, we are targeting for it to hit the week of August 12th. Now it has a publish week so you can yell at me if that changes. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winguardian Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) Seriously eric? I was so looking forward to that blogpost... how can it take 3 weeks for something that's already finished in the english language? I'm sure there's community members that can translate it faster than that? There's been a dryspell of actual informative blogposts for a while now, the Summer of SWTOR updates only add to the need for more clear information on what this patch will actually bring PvP-content wise. I'm sure even Kvothe would approve if this blogpost came sooner . Man I'm really bummed. Edited July 29, 2013 by Winguardian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the tease but it's an in-depth answer and best to keep all the where, whys, and hows in one place. Perhaps Eric was just jesting for effect here, but assuming he was not, this statement says a lot about the hierarchical structure of EABW. That a blog post needs several levels of approval and control shows that the process of control is out of control itself. No wonder Bioware does not move fast. They are not allowed to.

If something is not approved then it has to be rewritten then resent through the approval process again ad nauseam, until its approved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winguardian Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) If this is the same for fleshing out new features I can understand why they keep rehashing daily area's and old mechanics, not willing to innovate cause there's too much red tape involved. An open and iterative environment is not encouraged it seems at BW. What do they have to lose by having a developer speak his mind? He's part of the team isn't he? Yet so many forms of approval needed seems to indicate you don't trust him. I can understand if it would have to be approved by his direct superior but cmon, 3 weeks for a blogpost that's rediculous. In any case they won't change and that's unfortunate, I just hope they don't disappoint us when the blogpost finally does come.

Most of the heroic 2s/4s are daily. You have dailies for flashpoints/warzones/space combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
