People are coming here for argumenting that they dont suck and get outplayed in sod.
eg: "my mage and warrior isn’t two shotting anymore because sod but i’m still playing it so i come here to make 2000 posts about how its terrible "
I am pretty convinced the team is doing great work to this SOD, and they should keep it up.
Big shoutout to people who actualy enjoy the game, thx have a nice day.

Most of the time they doing great work, its not always perfect but you can see they are trying things to make this game more enjoyable for when we get 60 with a lot more dmg output, sadly it wont change the fact that too many noobies play alliance and have no willing to win, just to enjoy the 1mark 
Honestly based and true . Ironically this is hilariously the same logic that people flocking to cata classic forgot happened in cata original. They lost 2 million players because of how bad it was and they are HEADING back head in the sand.

But there are always a fall out of players for one reason or another, simply because people dont know what they want and those that think they know, dont really know anymore then Blizzard knows. Blizzard is making money off of repackaging old content. Vanilla (and tbc and wotlk) have the best chances of adding new content to old content. Its just with gaming theres a thing called “the locust effect.” Players tend to rush in, devour the content and move on. SOD is no different to this effect as theres no magical way to hold a large group of plsyers attention for long. Especially these days. So theyre not really catered to. Sod’s population will balance itself out and it’ll be fine.

I mean…
It’s really not complicated. Sod just is not fun to play.
Sure there are drop offs and tapering of pops with all games, but I am pretty convinced you haven’t actually seen the numbers from week to week/month to month.
Did you know that, if sod continues to lose 20% of its playerbase every phase and the continuation of tapering lower per week, that sod has a trajectory of being less populated than even era by July?
Crusader strike loses between 20-40% of its sitting pop each phase, and there is no recorded patterns showing that has ever changed.

Theyve made alot of questionable decisions. It’s a seasonal server. If something is OP they need to just roll with it and let people have fun. Maybe make others OP. Also moving to 10 to 20 man was a rough move. Alot of guilds had multiple 10 mans and wasnt bad but alot also had issues with things like… all 4 tanks wanting to tank and being forced out of their rolls or forced to find a new raid group or guild. Each of our raid groups had a small extra contingent of players so when 20s came, we had alot of extra players which lead to alot of benching which wouldnt have been bad if it wasnt for the weekly lockout. The fix i see is actually becoming alt friendly. Instead of nerfing xp with incursions, make it where you can level a character to 50 in a day so people can play and try out alot of alts so if you do it on one character. You have more to run it on until raid reset. And flex… flex raid size is probably what they will NEED to do because with how many people are dropping it for cata, and mists remix and probably war within and dont forget FF14s new expansion out soon… getting flex working should be number 1 priority.
I’m just wondering why it bothers you so much if others arent agreeing with and not liking this rehashed failed experimental retail lite that you feel you need to post this garbo?

Personaly didnt like or leveled with the excursion because it kinda break the game, but at the same time if you want to reroll becose your class isnt anymore the same with the damage reduction and everything then i can understand, theres always a reason why they do what they do. dont forget that its your personal opinion and doesnt reflect what i see in game.
Spoken like someone that didnt miss out on one or two of the four ‘early and often’ exploits and oversights that the devs had to scramble to fix (but not roll back of course not)
This phase has been a mess with the sheer amount of game breaking issues introduced, not to mention the raid needing to be cut in fourths for people to enjoy getting crappy loot, gnomer sidegrades.
Incursions, need I say more? These additions are doing more harm than good.
Surely they wont have to lock down any more servers, surely people will come back after cataclysm and pandaria remix, surely the exodus of players has everything to do with that and nothing to do with the way SoD has been mishandled at every step.
Maybe you’re delusional if you don’t see the writing on the wall in-game like the rest of us.

I still say incursions fast leveling was a good idea and a way to increase leveling speeds needs to be done as the population decreases from cata, retail and FF14, there will be abundant alts to fill groups since most people raid log anyways and will give them a reason to play more then 3 hours a week. The problem with incursions to me is the gold. Its too easy to farm gold meaning those that raid log or dont like to farm gold will see a terribly inflated auction house which is gonna make getting consumables even more of a hastle then in vanilla come phase 4 becuase of the massive gap between the people with alot of gold and the people who just wanna raid log.
true, good point, what about more gold from the monster in dongeons, so we can run dongeons instead of inscursions wich i find disgusting, personaly
Removing the main character of the game (the world) is undeniably the dumbest move any MMORPG dev team could ever do.
Incursions are lazy content for lazy gamers. That’s it.
