Anyway, to say something useful about this update.
There are 2 possible ways from now on every single server:
- Because there are no set / item bonus lock in this patch, those players who will be under lvl 160, will struggre in every single fort battles which causes a huge drop of numbers on FFs
- As we saw on beta there will be changes on game mechanic, but I do know it will takes at least 2 years to fix everything around PvP, which means, required elements of the game will be crap for another huge time preiod so the non existed balance what we have gonna be much much worse.
The update can be good, if the management use it in a clever way, like locking every set bonuses on lvl 150 / 180, fix the PvP totally, and when everything ready / usable / playable again, with a similar script what they use for item bonus changes you just increase the set / item bonuses back to 250 because they could spend enough time. But, since the management don't ask clever players, nor asking those developers who are fixing the game only atm and not developing it, it will be a mess and they have to rush on "fixing everything".I'm 100% sure because of the hurry, these upcoming changes will be crap as well, they will not give us time to think about it, test it, and fix it (simply just use our knowledge) and there will be many issues with those upcoming changes as well.
Veterans gain too much advantage (because we all know, now a lvl 130 character with less good sets against a lvl 150 7+ years old character with a really good setup can't be better, so imagine what's gonna happen if lvl 180+ players will beat lvl 160 ones bumms), players manually need to care about rebalancing everything again so we have to mess with forts again, a single high leveled player can beat literally anyone on duels, players needs to sit here another 5 years to reach the max lvl and they can start focusing on quality agains their 17 years old opponents, etc. You all saw what will be the problem, many other players warned you in the last 5 days about them.
Overall, another good feature, what cause disaster because of stupidity. I'm curious, will the servers can handle the upcoming bad situations afterwards it will be live, because nowadays everything became very, very sensitive if we speaking about stability.
A whole server depends on a handful of players who keep those alive, just half of them needs to dissappear, and you can look for another good server
