Druushk wtf SoE - Page 2

Hethrir · 02-22-2008, 01:55 PM

i think i agree with grev, it seriously seems like SOE is trying to kill this game. so far with this expansion weve lost our brigand, a coercer, and three of my friends out of guild have stopped playing. as it stands right now our entire guild is sick of VP to the point we never want to go back in. myself personally, im almost to the point of reactivating my wow account to play that til warhammer online comes out. SOE, get a clue. people are sick of this shit. theirs a huge difference between making a mob hard and making a mob retarded. i could understand buffing drushk up a bit, or elder ekron, or maybe give those perma rooted mobs some new tricks, but this is ridiculous. i dont understand what you guys are trying to do to this game. it almost seems like youre TRYING to kill it. youve made so many steps in the right direction, more faction content, more variety for weapons (the epics/avatar stuf ive seen) these are GOOD steps. but then you have to do shit like drushk and to a lesser extent nexona and fuck it all to hell. congratulations guys, youre fucking stupid! i personally think ill be moving to warhammer online when it comes out, im sick of paying a company to just ruin this crap and piss everyone i enjoy playing with off. ive had way too many friends leave due to the bullshit youre pulling and i dearly hope you figure out how to fucking create a game... FUCKTARDS!

I seriously dont understand wtf they can possibly be doing to test these encounters. Fighting this thing for 30 seconds and the first that came into my head was "ummmm..how the fuck are we going to heal statue clickers on the other side of the fucking room"

These guys fucking blow ass at programming that is all. If you play a game and it constantly has buggy effects that don't trigger, cancel out others, weird pathing, broken scrips - it all comes down to the coders are a bunch of dumb fucks. I couldn't code my way out of a paper bag but - i've played enough games and been around programmers enough to realize that SOE is fucking garbage at coding this one, there should be no excuse.

Kind of like how their update when they finally fixed Edict of the Whispered Word to allow blue aoe's to work. I remember reading something that had the gist of "we found a really good coder and he was able to fix it". Wouldn't be suprised if the item was broken for over a month cause nobody could fucking figure out how to write the god damn code correctly - I mean what else causes bad mechanics?

Probably because of the way the spells fucking work you idiot. They cast on yourself, and considering what the Edict of the Whispered Word does......... It's not as simple as you think to fix the errors on somebody else's code that is intertwined with somebody else's, and then another person, and then 80 files later you finally find the culprit. The real issue is more about the fact that these issues aren't found by QA to let the coders know about it in a timely fashion. Instead it's up to players to do the QA work.

Never thought I would ever say it but .. If there was a way to Crushbone(tm) it I would.

This is some of the most amazingly bad encounter design I've ever played through. That 3-4 have to stand around and click a statue for the entire duration of the fight is insulting. You think people are paying $15/month so they can stand there and wait...and wait... and wait for their chance to be a part of things by clicking a statue? How the fuck is that fun? It was bad enough 1 person had to have that crappy job on Venril - now 4 people get to be bored and pissed off.

I'm with Hethrir on this. I downloaded the free WoW demo to see if it's worth it. I'm waiting for that final straw to give me the motivation to quit this game and not look back. If this is Sony's deliberate attempt to shut down EQ2, it's working.

It's understandable to have the epics come from a very very hard fight, but why is this fight on floor one? and if the other encounters get revamped, what about those classes whos updates are much later in the zone?

Sciomar · 02-22-2008, 03:25 PM

Call me sick but I like the Nexona fight the way it is, I think there needs to be those "cockblocking" mobs early in a zone. But I definitely agree Druushk is a poorly done encounter and should be fixed...again.

There is nothing wrong with Nexona other than she punishes you for doing good raid dps. Druushk is fucking retarded though.
