It's probably the latter, but doesn't mean it isn't a realistic assessment.

That being a given, what we really need is for the mods to get their ability to fiddle with the game back, get them the ability to switch players' factions, and then make some changes to the current missions, lowering the bots per side on a lot of them, particularly mid-to-high levels.

Also, it may ease some lack of opposition problems by creating missions that allow Autobots and Maximals to team up against Decepticons and Predacons.

Well concidering we were told 'by the time the movie comes out' and so far it hasnt surfaced and the DVD's been out a month in the UK (where everything apart from Doctor Who seems to come later), can you blame him?

I hope Tam is wrong (it'd be a novelty), I really do.

I think the real OS actually saw the movie and hung himself in grief, and the mods are taking turns pretending to be him so we don't revolt en masse and install someone like Spawndragon as the chief programmer.

I say you be the programmer. Suddenly, Autobots and Decepticons are sorting everything out with drinking games. And I've seen Microbots. Megatron's a lightweight.

Hmm, I guess I should stop playing CoH/CoV and Mass Effect long enough to actuall post for once.

My transformers have been hitting missions as much as possible, but even in the lvl. three range opponents are scare from all three other factions as of late. That combined with my apprehension of a reset these past few months has held my Maximals back. I probably should be lvl. 5-6 by now instead of breaking four with my first stringers. (:|
