Classe balance is not the problem, as the survey shows actualy, since the results are very close. Even if some of it is not what you, or me, or anyonelse think. The problem is the concept of the survey itself.

The opinion of the remnant thousand that still play the game doesn't matter, what matters is the opinion of the 2MM that have played and LEFT!!!!

Don't you see guys? When we numbered our choices, we had it all backwards. 1-10 or 10-1... think about it *throws around tin foil hats*

This question worried me in particular in its phrasing.

Balance of progression WHERE?

Bori gives too much progression for doing little else save moving your character about so you're not force-logged from being AFK.

World pvp and minis don't give enough pvp xp.

PvE xp towards AAs is just right.

Which area did you mean to ask about, Funcom? They all have different answers.

If you want more 'telling' and less 'everywhere/ divided' poll results: Ask the right/ more specific questions!
Yes if I was asked whether progression was FAST enough, I'd of said no, need more xp... if they meant gear power, I'd of said nerf the gear power.


Feels like they worded the questions in such a way that no matter what you picked, they could skew the majority result and claim it favoured whatever direction they ALREADY decided they were going to go in.

I pvpd with a conq, barb, and demo with little to no aa and bad gear and I managed just fine. Sure things were harder but that's what make getting campaign badges and that gear more satisfying.

Player housing being listed as a higher priority than pvp stuff is absolutely ridiculous though. Please remember though that they just published the results. They aren't saying that is their list of priorities.
But it's a completely different gaming experience then a FPS. It's like saying well we are all equal on a FPS, lets just play chess instead. A little more extreme then switching from an MMO to a FPS, but the concept is that players like adventuring and having the abilities/game play of a MMO. Having skill being the deciding factor over a fight doesn't need to be just for FPS.

I want to counter attacks/cc/heal/circle strife & everything else mmos have. I want to have a character that has a world that is all connecting and I can venture through them while killing players. I like FPS, but an MMO has a different feel, one I actually perfer more.

It's not that progression should be taken away completely, but it must be easier to obtain to be competitive in a PvP setting.

Hmm.. picture looks like Lizard people.. If so wonder if it would be the god Ahriman coming back to the world of Conan.. Ultimate evil that Set / Crom / Mitra and others teamed up to kick out.

If so would be awsome. Heart of Ahriman was one of the most powerful artifacts in the conan world.

Smile survey results

well at least they took the time to do a survey and tabulate the results, means that we are not forgotten after all. Also it is good to hear that new content is coming and the game is continuing to move forward. Sure there are some problems with the game, but you will find that in any game if you spend enough time in it. Personally I love this game, the combat, the adventures with friends, the current content is much more extensive than at launch and I enjoy the mature/brutal setting. I started this game when it first launched and I remember all the problems it had then and because of that I left the game, but since I came back I can see that things are much improved and they continue to do so. Maybe the pace of improvement is what irritates people the most, but at least it is improving. Also with the new server merger, I am feeling more optomistic than ever and so are my fellow guildies, so lets give it a chance shall we? Thanks for listening and playing, see you all on the battlefield! Rebel396 - BlackDragonGuards

A survey filled with loaded questions and a very limited scope of feedback. But a survey, nonetheless.
