#57239, "Great post, but I have some followup commentary."
Edited on Tue 02-Dec-14 02:19 PM

*I am personally a big advocate of transparency for the players. I like that the staff document their mechanical changes and put it out there for the world to know. I think it is important to maintain communication between the players and the people who do the code work. So there needs to be some give on both sides. If you guys want coders to actually work (as volunteers) on the game, enjoy working, and be transparent about changes, then please lower personal expectations.
Awesome - I love it. Does this mean that now that the playerbase has basically communicated "Please don't "fix" this thing that wasn't broken" that you all will actually listen and revert the changes to obs/explore XP, while ADDING the enhanced IMM xp on top?
Communication, only works when both parties listen and adjust accordingly. Thus far, when players rail against IMM decisions the general consensus to come out of staff land sure sounds a lot like "tough ####, play or don't"
I think in general, most enhancements are appreciated. And, I also believe that the player base does give praise for changes that they like.
Another thing to remember is that what keeps vets interested and playing is the existence of things they like (apparently obs/explore xp is one of these things). I feel if this change were simply to have split role xp/imm xp while leaving the rest of it 'alone' the feedback would be near 100% positive.
