I belive it was to some of the Dev's, whom also seem pretty unhappy with how things have turned out, both with the game and with what was once the RO community (though they would never say so publicly out of professionalism, you can tell if you read between the lines), unfortunately though, i don't think it was even remotely important to Mr. Gibson, who by his own admission didn't even like RO:Ost (he is a run'n'gun player by heart), and at the end of the day, he's the one calling the shots, and a lot of the Dev's seem to have not even been privy to the design choices made.
Ohh wake up and smell the coffee, there will be no fixes to any of this, not from TWI, it won't happen, not even for the so-called "Realism" mode.
TWI has made no secret of the fact that they will not listen to us, and that they don't care, streaching all the way back to Ramm's "open letter to the community", where he outright told us to STFU and accept that we where not the target audience for this game, and ever since with comments like the whole forum not mattering because we're only 0.01% of the community..
There will be no drastic changes made to the gameplay and class system, there will be no true realism mode, there will be no server presets or options made with us in mind, it won't happen.
Mods are all we get guys, but here's the kicker: Pretty much all the talent is otherwise engaged with the big total conversions like RS, ICV and IE, so i'm really not sure who's left with both the talent and experiance to fix this in the short term, aswell the inclination to do so. And the game is not set up for easy modding of things like class avalibillity, which is coded directly into the maps, and will probably be impossible to fix without creating duplicate maps (and good luck finding server admins who want to run an all custom map rotation), things are not looking that promising..
A brilliant post, + rep to you sir. The complete truth. It shocks me that TWI have responded to other topics but not the one at hand.
This one is just epic:

"Trust us."
Wilsonam, I did trust you and I will never repeat my misstake.
holy **** its like theres a damned civil war.
why dont some of you guys just ****ing wait till the majority of the game breaking bugs and glitches are patched to get TWI's attention about this crap.
inb4 neg rep (which i dont give a ****)
inb4 hate
inb4 ban
I like how you added a period at the end of your badly written post. You suddenly cared about grammar? but anyways, TW can fix the bugs first, most of us just want a answer to wtf happened.
Wait til the bugs are fixed? We've been trying to get TWI's attention about this "crap" for two years. Grow up and try to understand exactly why we are upset before you post ignorantly.holy **** its like theres a damned civil war.

<insert giving a **** here>
im just tired of seeing every thread becoming a ***** fest about how TWI isnt responding to their community.
no one is forceing you to read it.
thing is as a certain bug that prevents me from launching the game is in place i have nothing to do.
im lurking these forums mainly for something to do and to see TWI post their patch notes. which they do infact ****ing post.
i hate coming to this section just to see "WWAAAHH TWI ISNT LISTENING" or "BOOHOO THEY LIED"
i would usually hate being the guy to be targets by everyone on the forums but i no longer care.
well so far most of the "BOOHOO" and the "WWAAAHH" has been coming from you, if you maybe go away and maybe make a thread about your problems that would be great.

Who cares? We are 0.01%. A loss of 0.01% on the money your earned isn't significant in business.![]()
But no, i drooled on the RO2 screen, enjoyed the promises and interview during years, i gave negative reputation to the whiners like the one with a troll face and a Prussian helmet. Until the last moment they didn't said anything about that the game was not the one they promise to us. We all waited. Until now.
