Just because the devs say something doesn’t mean they were right.
Obviously they were wrong in a majority of people’s opinions because most people prefer resilience to anything else they implemented since its removal
Blizzard has been bleeding subscriptions steadily because they try to appeal to the complaints of a vocal minority that dont even like the game and they make changes to please them while alienating the actual enthusiasts that like the game how it is/was
I agree with you until the last bit. Changing resil COULD negatively impact your experience but if you cant concede its possible to be improved upon I think your being intentionally obtuse as your pretty much saying “resilience was perfect”.
They didn’t remove the ranking system in Classic. They are not going to remove resil. It’s a fun exercise to think about what would be better…but in the end. It will be there.
EVERYTHING can be improved upon. I absolutely do not want anything about TBC’s core gameplay to be changed, even on the claim “it is an improvement”. How did they say it? "Warts and all?.
Take the Retail change to weapon speeds. It was an “improvement” because it normalized attack speeds and made the math way better. By most anyone’s measure it was “an improvement”. However, this change cause the fast 2 handers to become very slow, and it made specs with no ability to use 1 handers suddenly unable to solo Viscidius, even at level 110!
Any “improvement” to TBC’s core gameplay could be just as awful, with unforeseen consequences. I am unwilling to risk the gameplay of my favorite WoW expansion on some “hope” for “improvement” when Blizz’s track record shows how poorly it is likely to turn out.
TY but No TY.
It’s not my viewpoint which you are irrationally trying to ascribe to me but Blizzards
Blizzard removed it from the game entirely and you have not given any direct evidence that they were wrong to do so other than it affected you
You’re not thinking straight and lashing out at me because Blizzard made the right call and you have nothing to defend your stance.
No it cant, that is a blatantly false statement.
Again this is why youre so angry that you know Blizzard did the right thing and cant come to terms with it
And i assume that you have independent verifiable third party research as ‘evidence’ of this statement?
I thought not.
Well that all makes sense but the way you previously worded it did not at all make it sound like that what you were saying. I can understand the viewpoint of “it wasn’t prefect but its the best I’ve had lets not risk it” when you said “Changing Resilience would negatively impact me” I read that as “it cant be made better in my mind” which I thought was a little bit out there.
I get that it proabably wont happen and I get that people are nostalgiic and don’t want to risk it but is it so bad for me to want to see improvements if they are possible? TBC is gonna rock no matter what I just think we can do better with a few things and IMO resil is shallow and could be improved upon. I don’t know how im not that smart but someone is. I dont know that I have faith in blizzard paying that guy to fix it either but I know its possible.
Pvp participation being significantly less after tge removal of resilience seems to me like a pretty clear indication that a majority of players felt it was the wrong decision to remove it
This thread is a perfect example of that
So far the only 2 people that claim resilience was bad is you and the OP, the overwhelming majority of the people in this thread have said they like/prefer it
Well not be rude but you need to take a few higher education courses then correlation is not causation and your sentiment does not proof make.
I loved the way Resilience made sure PVP gear was always better for PVP, but never better for PVE.
That said, I can’t lay the decline in subs on the removal of Resilience. I can, however, agree that the direction Blizz’s design philosophy took drove the loss of subs, and ALSO the decision to kill Resilience. And their later addition of PVP Power as a replacement for it tells me that some of the designers at Blizz agreed it was a bad change.
So far the majority of people in this thread have shown support for resilience while only you and one other guy have said its bad
To be fair, tho, Moxnix is actually willing to have a legitimate conversation about it. I wish everyone could be so fair and civil.
Again I don’t want to be rude but in the real world that doesn’t really mean anything. I’m no sure if you have taken a college level stats class or not but that’s totally irrelevant. I hear you though you personally don’t want them messing with balance I get it.
Again you’re offering opinion as fact with nothing to tie the removal of resilience to what you’re claiming as fact. I want to see direct unbiased independently verfiable third party evidence proving what you are saying is true.
PvE baby demands removal of resilience because he can’t roll BGs with it’s existence. More on this tonight on News at 5
You havent yourself. So you should correct your behaviour .
When you go out insulting people with false accusation you cannot expect people to treat you seriously as you claim to want.
Retail called they want you back in the game to whine about high elves and some ‘horde bias’ thing.
Nope. Leave it exactly how it was.
People trying to change it so they can pretend it was better than it was.
Nah.
