    It looks like it. Maybe he didn't like the update either.

    And more will follow...
    I agree with Porthos, a moment of silence for our veterans who gave so much to the community... :(

    They all quit because of the update or they got bored? Didn't Black Tail have a ridiculous number of games played?

    For both McZanders.
    The game lacks so much contents and quite frankly, the update was a stab in the back.
    I understand them and I, myself, would have quit if it wasn't for my guild. That's the only thing stopping me as of right now.

    I hope this has some influence on the development team. Maybe it's not too late to fix what they've broken and they can explore a way of taking the speeder down a notch without breaking two other ships.

    Well that could have done without touching speeder imo because if they have had just buffed shooter and defender, every other ship would have been "nerfed" that way so it would have equalized the game that way. Now speeder got broken as well as enforcer, or at least those can't carry as many different yellow items than what they used to. I mean now if you still want to have enough speed, you'll need 2x ob to do so. Not really good for mk5 enforcer at least. Speeder can be fine though, just less time to use short reloading weapons if you want to keep ob on longer.

    Sure tesla shield "nerf" seems quite okay as the 4 sec stun isn't that bad imo now when I have seen it in action.
    Fixer nerf is quite over going and -25% would have been enough though, at least as a start.
    Sniper cannon could have just been done with reducing critical change or critical dmg, not whole dmg of that weapon.

    Blacktail quit a bit before update. As a mostly free player it's hard to deal with legendary players who don't yet understand the deeper aspects of the game yet.

    Berg and Leo quit because of the overnerfing of the fixer.

    Speeder needed a nerf desperately. Imo it wasn't quite enough, on top of item nerf it also needs a small drop in HP. Fixers need a medium boost in HP to be viable again. Defenders need a big boost in defense and hp. Right now there still is no reason to play defender over shooter.

    Disclaimer: these are just my opinions and do not necessarily represent the opinions of other idjits. :p

    Defenders are in a terrible spot.If the team decides to leave you alone then you are done for.I agree they should have just buffed other ships.So many veterans gone is sad news indeed.The gap between P2W and ftp players NEEDS to reduce or else more will quit and the only ones playing will be the whales.

    Defenders are very very hard to kill... Big boost for defenders ? No thanks ! LOL
    Altough, they should have given a buff to the 3 ships (fixer, shooter and defender. Not just health but agility/turret) and keep the 2 others as usual. I think the reason why speeder are "better" is because they circle around boats. Remove that ability by buffing the other ships and they become "almost" defenseless.

    I'd be curious to see if Waveblower and other fixers follow. Defender is useless before mk 5. I'm too slow and can't match up against Shooters. I'd be curious if there is a game out there that doesn't express the same issues of P2W vs F2P.

    While legendary weapons are absurd at lower levels, I dont see them having a massive impact at higher levels. Sure you can buy your way up, but once you start facing veterans with mk4+ epics its a fairly even battle. The amount of $$$ required to move past mk1 legendary does limit the amount of superwhales.

    I agree.
    A legendary weapon is good only at low - mid infamy.
    You become very weak in high infamy. Lack of upgrades, lack of perk slots and the difference between a T5 epic and T5 legendary aren't that great either.
    I would recommend going full epic instead of legendaries in nightmare league.

    Oh look, we agree on something. SUCCESS ! :)

    Exactly. Legendary are fast tracks to top tier, but you hit a skill ceiling eventually. All the $$$ won't close the gap for experience. There's a certain top 50 player I have in mind with absurd legendaries but 1600 games played. He seems to fall out later in the season.
