After Having a long talk with a poster from this thread via TS today and pointed here to read it I would like to give my 2 cents on the topic. I tend to stay away from the forums because of the politics involved and the fact the Devs usually take the side of whiners and ruin games. I have seen this many times in past games I have played.
However on this topic I see it as an abuse of game mechanic and should not exist. I also believe it can be used for great training for port battles and fleet dynamics. I like what another poster said about having like a large battle option against AI. What I dont understand is the fact that this was brought up and a pissing match between clans and I dont see it that way. Full disclosure I am a TF member and not a big PVP player but a ship builder.
What I dont get is why people are arguing over a PVE change from clans on a PVP server. You want PVE go to a PVE server. Yes I agree you can get better exp from PVE and people want to get up in levels. But it still stands this is a PVP server from who this thread started and the clan pissing match started between.
My final point is this game is still in development. It is not a release of the game. We are all still testers. They could wipe everything but exp tomorrow since they said they wouldnt do that anymore. So how many of you whiners would quit the game tomorrow if they decided to wipe everything but exp and set the map back to start and changed the way the game played.
Enjoy the game, test the game, give your ideas on how to make the game better. But for gods sake stop the 3rd grade whining about this clan did this and this clan did that.
For the DEVS make your game and please dont turn this game into another PotBS.
FLAME ON Because I know you all cant help yourselves.
