Thinking of coming back

I'm thinking of coming back to the game... been away awhile (last time I logged in I think epic orchard was the new stuff). What's new? Is it worth it?

It really depends on why you left.

they will probably congratulate themselves on how long they "kept it going" never able to see that it could have easily managed to keep itself going for far longer if they had just meddled far less drastically and with some semblance of an actual gameplan.

Hearing something has "merit" but we don't have "time" kind of says everything about how Turbine works on things.

everyone but turbine knows that we are sad they are destroying our game

I don't make the game, I just get tested what they build. Sorry you are not happy.

DDO is easy to summarize - the greatest game to suck the most ass.

Turbine - So incompetent that we are skeptical when they report their own incompetence.

Other companies will settle for shitting out garbage, Turdbin actually prefers to. Especially if they can get us to buy it, that just cracks them up.

Breaking something and putting it back together isn't as good as not breaking it to begin with, it's not even close.

Devs do not care what players want - they already have an agenda and give out token gestures so the paladins can feel worthy.

The DDO devs aren't motivated by a positive user experience.

It's a bit of a wasteland at least if you're not in a guild but I wouldn't say it's terrible. I've been back for about a month now and had fun. Not a ton going on but if I post an LFM I can normally get 2 or 3 people for it (even for Epic Cannith Challenges) and there's occasionally a group posted for something I'd like to run.

The Grouping function is buggy as hell though which is something I hadn't gotten to truly experience back when I was playing a year and a half ago. How long have things been this fucked up with groups not correctly showing how many people are in them/classes/names/etc?

On a positive note you will grant someone +5% XP if you group with them this week. Smiley

LFMS buggy quite some time.  Click on the WHO panel to sort of help and then count to 50.

The game is pretty much the same as it has been. 

Some slight variations:  Different builds might be "the shit" now  (Barbs and Mechanic rogues and Warlocks are all new or been updated to be amazeballs since U23).  The new loot is nice and the drop rate isn't too great or too awful.  If you play in prime time US hours, depending on server, there is stuff going on.
