That's a load of crap - every MMO out there has new people not as skilled as older members.  .

But none of them have huge 3 week  exp gap in first day... yikes sorry but i play on dayly basis and i see less and less people... we will see how many players will stay after first month.

Every single one of them has new players who do not have the skills of older players. Start a stEVE account today, or WOW, or whatever, and that is evident. Your arguement is spurious.

The real issue here is not the game as a whole, it's you, and others like you.  You either heard about the game after release, or knew about it before release and did not keep up on developements, did not see the EA offer, or knew about the EA offer and decided to wait, and not take it.  Because of this, YOU PERSONALLY do not feel you can play with those who did. You come up with all sorts of rhetoric about how unfair it is, why you should get more or they should get less.

It's called life, and it rarely is ever the way you want it to be.  What matters is how you play the cards you are dealt, not complaining that someone got better cards than you...

Re: How to balance a 50ker vs a 20ker?

The technical matter of EP aside, the incentive for players to sign up with EA was to HELP keep new players by 'seeding' people into the game.

Imagine creating an account and logging in the first week and finding 10 people online.

There is no doubt in my mind EA (of which I did not participate go 20K'ers!) encouraged more people to continue playing than discouraged people because of the EP gap.

Wow so deep... skill and exp are to different things, sorry but you are closed minded, there is bigger picture over there.

Re: How to balance a 50ker vs a 20ker?

Lol. Skill is how you play the cards, the only limit is your intelligence, which seems to be really limited...

Experience is learning from mistakes, and improving how you do things.  Of course, you have to be capable of learning...

And wtf does my corp have to do with the validity of my statements, or the spurious rhetoric of your's, and this topic?  Last I checked, this is the Balancing Forum, not Corporate Discussions...

F- on marshalling facts or data to support an arguement.

Re: How to balance a 50ker vs a 20ker?

lol ok again so deep, you should write a book. i though that we are playing game that should be fun for everyone. but i see that some people want to compensate flaws from reality, and feel little better by playing uber hero.

Wow, I'd call that a perfect case of projection ( applying one's own issues to another ) and cognitive dissonance...  still an F-  on marshalling any valid arguement on this topic.

No, that was my learning disabled nephew.  He was wanting to write a fantasy trilogy, and tried to build a backstory to it, similar in concept to Tolkien's Silmarallion.  We tried to tell him it would be taken out of context, considering the publisher, but no, he never listened...

He was probably just hard of hearing from all the sawing and free wine.

Thats it! Open the door.. Mom is surprised to see you, but ignore her shocking stare and angry questions about 13 perpetuum account fees charged to her credit card.. THERE IS YOUR PRIZE RIGHT PASSED HER.. The front door.. Wait wait not so fast sport, velcro your shoes and its cold outside.. put on your 1997 Dallas Cowboys starter jacket.. Ok out you go...

Who turned the brightness up so high? Oh, rofl, you mean the sun. Whats that? I agree the resolution is amazing. tongue

Re: How to balance a 50ker vs a 20ker?

The 30K is a temporary advantage that diminishes over time. I am greatly enjoying myself with this game and may splurge on a 12 month subscription. At the close of that period I will be a 546Ker and compared to the 576Ker. While he might have a skill rank or two on me the difference will be negligible.

You are suffering from 'UMADBRO' syndrom. Its ok its curable by just not getting so emotional, but its like watching a LifeTime movie reading one of your posts. Tiffany Amber Thisen much brah?

And stop masturbating to my picture soldier boy.. who crank dat soldier boi... LOL, like someone would care that you were a dishwasher in the navy.

Now keep getting overly mad and using nicknames I personally created in other games, to help angry kids like you have a chance, and you have no affiliation to.

I guess since it seems you have the downs, I could cut you some slacks.

Now go to your *** timeout chair.

You should edit your posts 9 more times to keep saying something about 'Factual data', all the while just getting more mad. I offered world class thought provoking ideals and opinions in this thread.
