Okay, I'm all ready for a shakeup. Don't much care,
I've started developing a lot of trust in FC, and accept
that things are gonna be really weird, buggy and 'sploity
at first - not an issue, I'm thinking it'll be fun getting
used to things.
But we've been told NT for example is going to have
a bunch of nanos removed completely (i.e. double, triple - yay)
and other ones added (more yay).
So how will we actually get ahold of these nanos?
Will there be a 1/1 replacement? I.e. if you have
double/triple uploaded, will you automagically get
the new ones?
Will we have to dump another potential 100mill
(that's just ~10 high end nanos) into replacing things?
Or god forbid.. are we gonna have to go through
all that **** we did for nano cubes, and re-farm
Victory Points, and kill endless swamp hags for
biodome keys, etc?
Speaking only on my own behalf here- I'd be majorly
pissed off having this character nearing completion,
and all of a sudden having to dump all my raid
points into something that I technically worked
towards about 4 years ago. I'd probably skin
a dev and wear their ears to mardi gras.
Maybe one ear, depends how long it took.
Hell, maybe 2 devs.. but I digress...
Just flicking through the hundred pages of
discussions, it's reminding me of how they
announced Everquest2, really early - leaving
the EQ1 playings thinking
'why bother.. why *did* i ****ing bother',
and well it's already worrying me.
Either way, I'm pretty sure the community
won't appreciate being left high and dry,
so any info on a final implementation or
proposed solutions would be fantastic.
On a final rambling note -
Can't wait to see everyone come crawling
out of the woodwork, trying to master the
new techniques like drunks trying to get
their sea legs. Should be amusing =)
And thanks for keeping us updated, keeps
the panic down. Hoot.
Wop!
