Concerns of Changes vs Community
Squash:
You know I don't think Arrow was talking about the content of the balance changes so much as he was talking about the timing, and I think that's a sentiment most people agree with.
RearAdmiralZill:
I split this from the main topic since I felt it was worth its own discussion rather than balance.
I hope people realize that, with all good intentions, Muse wanted to push the patch out before the last steam sale. This would allow all of those new players the chance to learn the revised meta instead of having to confusingly change a few days down the road.
We all know people come and go, but if they for some reason cannot continue to play a game based on balance changes that makes them change their layouts because the previous was considered OP, thats on them.
awkm:
Will be adding information about Adventure Mode Kickstarter here as we get closer to launching it this week:

Not everyone is no-lifer, you know Zill...Not everyone has time to check the forums after each update to find out what ship/layout is OP now and which one is not anymore...Explain your frustrating players why after 2-3 week brake they have to change their tactics/guns/ships and adapt to new GoIO?
Oh right, there is a guy who calls himself "God" and talks to us "via game changes". Don't take it wrong - I support changes which are rational, add new features but constant "balancing" and "tweaking" makes me go berserk when I imagine going through all the changed weapons again to test them in the battle.
The last but not least. Muse still didn't find a way to actually force teamwork and punish immature players. This causes that such "n00bs" are constantly destroying fun for others (including themselves too) and that is leading to both group of players leaving this game.

Ill ignore your blatant disregard of respect among peers, and address your "concerns."

Reading through patch notes takes 10-15 minutes tops. After everything was said and done we ended up with a rather balanced game. I haven't seen a "insert gun here" is OP thread in weeks. The point of the balancing was so that you do have to change tactics. Not roll a Heavy Flak Goldfish and roll over everything all day and call yourself the master of the universe.

Im assuming youre referring to Eric aka awkm. Hes the balancing guy. He might as well be your goio gaming deity. If you think that his changes arent for the sake of the betterment of the game however, thats your problem. All of the changes made and subsequently tweaked have only made the game better for it. Darn, you cant roll an all Flak Galleon and win all day on any map. Maybe use some brain power and figure out strategies like everyone else is.

You cant force teamwork from people who dont want to play with others. You cant inject maturity into another player over the internet. New players who want to learn will find a rich and welcoming community, and trolls will be shown the report system/block feature/and subsequent losses because no one will want to be anywhere near their boat or crew. If you have managed to somehow find the magic to cure internet trolling, pass it along to xbox live.
