1. Rangers changes? All the rangers I've spoken too enjoy the changes they made. See here for all the changes made.. http://vgplayers.station.sony.com/gameUpdatesDetails.vm?id=064&mode=PatchNotes
2. Zerkers, Inquisitors? There are no plans to implement them.
3. Making VG easier? This is absolutely not true. The content is getting harder. They have boosted 3 dot mobs to meet the original design intent of being duo or small group mobs. At the high level, the griffin quest is challenging 6 man content. These require gear and more importantly strategic execution, Pantheon of the Ancient which is on test atm, is more challenging 6 man content which unlocks raid content. There are even groans from the soloer since they can no longer solo 4/5 dot mobs. Easier you say...I firmly disagree.
4. Raid content? Silius posted http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/147/view/forums/thread/212632 There is 6-man, 12-man and 24-man content for the lvl 50s. There is even a reference to possibly increasing the level cap. Yes, more is coming.
5. Advertisement? They will not be putting boxes in stores. They made the Free 14 day Trial Island and placed online advertisement. Currently their limited budget is heavily on development and secondary on marketing.
6. Population? The population is increasing. Way back 5 months ago, the population status was LOW. Now the population is Medium. This speaks volumes. The major difference with VG is the perception of population. VG is a huge massively open world. As one person put, the story of VG is you. You are the main character setting out on your journey. As any MMO, if you want a group you need to do one of 5 things. Let people know your LFG, post in ooc, start a group, join a guild, meet and make friends.
7. Where are we now and where are we going? VG is now focusing on growing VG. The primary focus is not fixing or polishing, it is expanding and growing VG. More content to the max level group is welcome and coming is mass quantities. Pantheon, Bridge of Destiny, Gazarumat, KDQ....all is focsuing on growing VG.
It should be a good Christmas.
Today was weekly maintenance day combined with a patch combined with a hotfix in the afternoon. Servers are now up and awaiting you.
Check out the new Harvest Day Quest from the NPC in Khal who is located North of the Rift and Bind stone. Her last name is Halgrim. She needs your help.
Send some feedback to the devs with the /bug command. As you level higher the repop rates go higher.
Regarding mob difficulty, the design intent was always for following setup up.
2 dot - Soloable mobs
3 dot - Small group mobs (2+ members)
4 dot - Group mobs
5 dot - Challenging group mobs
6 dot - Raid mobs
This change really has to do with restoring design intent.
Running XP or Vista? If you're running Vista, you need to run VG as an Administrator.
