Well, it has been a fun run, but I've been frustrated to the point of giving up. I mean, games should be fun, right? I shouldn't be playing a game that frustrates me.
 
Let's be clear: I think some steps of the attunement are totally ridiculous, but the dungeons and PvE content are second to none. It's a shame that games seem afraid of challenging players in things like dungeons and raids, and that has probably been the best part of this game. I've thoroughly enjoyed the PvE content.
 
I've also enjoyed your story immensely, and I'll be checking back to on Reddit to see how the story unfolds for sure. I've made some good friends on Nexus, and it will be hard to say goodbye to them. This brings me to my next point. I hope I won't have to say goodbye forever.
 
Please fix your PvP Carbine. The changes you have proposed to re-design the rating system will not be enough for us 50's who have fallen so far behind in ratings that we are now sub-1000 in rating. The community has been absolutely less than helpful. Earfuls of "GET GUD" "Well maybe ur bad" do not help my situation, nor the situation of the countless others in my shoes. My PvP circle has all but stopped PvP'ing despite nearly every member still logging in for things like daily quests. 
 
I play a DPS Esper and routinely break 1 million damage in battlegrounds with mere blue gear. I've runed it out and tried my best. I've genuinely tried, Carbine. I really have. Pre-mades, PuG's, PvE gear, PvP gear, it doesn't matter: I still lose. Routinely these losses are 0-5 in Walatiki. I think I have won perhaps 3 RBG games since being 50. One was with a pre-made. Two were with PuG's. What am I supposed to take away from this experience? That I am a horrible player? A conclusion that does not seem to be shared by those who know me nor by my experiences in other games. Or, that your system is just not functioning in a way that is fair or encouraging to players? 
 
I simply cannot do it anymore. I feel like I've done the best with the situation I've been given. I've done well on the boards with a class that, according to most people, I should be getting destroyed on. 1v1 I can hold my own almost every time and then some... but it's not enough. I come onto the forums to see some player feedback and advice and I see a thread where you defend win-trading as a legitimate way to play. Do you have any idea what this does to player psyche after they've tried to play the "right way" and watched their progress be tanked and completely halted? 
 
Sorry, Carbine, but your system needs work. It has been detailed in earnest by people much better at these kinds of concepts than I am so I won't try to detail it here.
 
I'll be watching to see if changes are made that seem meaningful and I'll continue signing on for dailys and dungeons until my sub runs out. After that though, I think it's off to another land for me. Good luck PvP-people who stick around. It's rough out there.

Lots of subs are done on August 3rd. They're probably patch some grammatical errors on the 4th, with no intention of saving their player base. Your concerns are legit. The issues are long standing and there has been a lot of talk.
 
The fact that they're not rolling back everyone's rating only reaffirms my decision to leave as well.
 
Carbine will forever be known for the game that could have been, yet another game in a long list, of games that just.. well they were run by suits and not gamers. That's always the problem it seems.

			Games should be fun, different people find different things fun. Good luck on your new endeavours! :)

Thank you for playing WildStar, I'm sorry to hear that in the end you just grew frustrated, but hope maybe you'll come back when you see the changes coming to PvP. :)
