The Energon Pub

I've pretty much lost all interest in this game. I used to be eager to check my mission logs and see how my bots did. But as of late, its just one faction completely being active or the other at points of the day. It's become extremely rare for my level 0-1 bots to find any fair missions where one side isn't completely overpowered.

If there's far too many cons in a mission (say bots 0-6 cons, or 0-10) there grows no point to throw my bots in to get slaughtered. If such happens I just reach for the arena and I never find fun in that. Other times it is the reverse, with NO cons and autobots are filling up the missions.

The times of day seem to be set. The bots and cons are just seldom on enough at the same times for there to be many good missions where one side isn't outnumbered. My patience is gone and I don't even look foward for that one mission to happen where I get the right competition. The reset may as well make me lose interest rather than want it more.

I'm....pretty much done the with HMW entirely. I might sell off my Dols soon if anyone is interested.

You're free to do what you want, but I highly recommend sticking around until summer when the lack of purpose issue will be resolved.

I can see where the OP is coming from. With V2 around the corner I really have no reason to play at the moment.

Even though I don't really like the upcoming V2, I try to be positive about it by viewing it as another challenge thrown out to me.

However you choose, I think you should give Black Jack's suggestion a chance and then see what happens.

just set a goal,

something like reaching 1 billion xp before the reset.

Give it a few weeks, just spend whatever time you have left bullying the hell out an enemy...

I plan to spend the next few weeks trying to ram-raid anything owned by Phaze or Subsonika, and winning the hell out of fight club.

Same here basicly, I'll wait before really getting into it since it won't matter until then.

I'm the opposite, I want to play my ass off until the reset to see just how much the last few year's effort pays off. Why throw it all away? Have some fun with what you've got while it lasts!

That's pretty much the way I feel about it as well.

Im with Daneki, i plan to get the best i can out of this game, then see what V2 throws at me when it begins.

Im not going to worry about it until then.

I look at it as a good chance to walk away from the game.

I've become accustomed to nice big scores and to go back to level 0 scores might be enough to finally turn me off the game.

Though I do enjoy helping to develop it into something better, as scary as change can be.

Burn, I seriously doubt you will be the only one considering making a break, but thats what happens when things change.

The way I look at it, if ALL the stats now have a proper function and there are a few extra tactics etc, the new game should be different enough from this to be worth the effort. Adding an RPG/Territories element to it just makes it even more exiting.

Besides, ill still have the same amount of free time/work avoiding to do in july.

I would HOPE it's different enough ...

Only one way to find out. 48 days to the movie and counting...

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Wed May 16, 2007 8:55 am

Actually there is another way. OS promised an update in the support staff forum for over the weekend. I'm still waiting ... *shakes fist*

It'd be nice to be able to reveal things instead of just posting wish lists. :-(

Cool. A bit of news for us all to whet the appetite would do this place some good, lets hope OS has the time soon then.

by **Youkai_Inuyasha** » Wed May 16, 2007 9:21 am

Eh...you all like to go a little off topic. It isn't so much that I don't want to wait for the update or that I'm bummed about losing my characters. It's more so that I have entirely lost interest in the game concept. Throw your transformers somewhere and hope they come back alive. The only difference is it doesnt matter if they do live or not, they still get exp and energon and since you don't even have to pay attention to what is happening around you, you don't have to put any effort in anywhere.

Once again showing exactly how little you know.
