Eerrrgh. Quit banging on about wow in every single thread you visit. Noone cares.

Ah, they do care. Because the reason they're playing ED is because something is lacking in WoW or EvE or any other game you pick.

If everything was fine, they wouldn't even be here.

The very reason people play DIFFERENT games is because they're DIFFERENT and offer DIFFERENT choices. I didn't buy ED as an EvE or WoW replacement itself, I bought it to play something DIFFERENT.

But damn if I'm wasting $60 to have some bozo tell me -- "sit in your corner and shut up and play this game MY WAY" (meanwhile, talking about gimping solo mode!).

I've never played any of those games you listed. The last game I played "competitively" was quake.

Any way I always assumed "on topic" was when you brought a chocolate bar and used it on your partner but that might be going a bit far for this forum . . .

i think the second part was not directed at the one you quote?
just because i remember you're not keeping track of "who posted what"....

I assumed everyone was with me and would realise and I don't just mean about nefarious uses of British confectionery :p
 
Damn, i fell for it again.

But now seriously.
I didn't see anyone comment in here on todays quote of DBOBE:

Unlike community goals, Powerplay is a swinging balance - ie solo players are also balancing solo players.

What are everyones thoughts on this?
How do you interprete this?
I'm always a bit lost in "reading between the lines" as a non native english speaker... even if it's just one line.

I won't comment on things until I've tested them myself and formed an opinion.

I read "we think Community Goals are bit one-sided but Powerplay is balanced across the modes. It's not PvP centric."
 
Everyone may feel free to continue playing as you like, in the mode you like, switching as often as you like, for what ever reason you like. Feel free to move about the game at will.
 
Wasn't the whole thread based on assumptions and prejudice?
OK, i'll give you the CG part and that might be what counts in this regard.

The majority of the thread is rubbish imo. I only came here to talk about community goals due to my direct experiences with them. I assumed that if I had started a new thread about it it would have ended up in here anyway :)

I remember... and i even made the proposal to make different goals for solo and open ;)
Sadly i had to retract it later because of the lack of people wanting a compromise. No will to negotiate -> extremist positions :(
