A Suggestion For Future Updates..

[Zeus]

Hello,

While we all know there are several mixed feelings about the latest update, that is not what this thread is about. I am just interested in hoping that it does not happen again. So, with new gear and weapon releases, I suggest STG give comparison threads BEFORE the item is released. This way, there won't be people who are jaded on how the weapon turned out. The only angry people will be those that decided to gamble with their weapon and sell it before the stats were posted.

Item Comparison Guidelines:
The item comparisons should include the following:

- Detailed explanation of the mechanics of proc for each weapon/gear
- Skill damage comparison of weapon/gear of old weapon/gear vs. new weapon/gear
- Picture of the stats of the new weapon itself.
- Preview of the weapon equipped with stats shown (because DPS figures do not tell the full story).

If this is done, there will not be surprises and people will also be more likely to give level-headed feedback because they will not be playing with their bank accounts. A good majority of these posts come after people spent platinum looting the weapons only to find out that they are not that great. I am not placing the blame on anyone, but I suggest that we work together to bridge this communication issue.

Yes, this does mean that the act of a surprise will be minimal but isn't that better than having to deal with many angry customers?



Thoughts? Suggestions?
