Congratulations.. on par for the course.. you managed to ruin the game. Patches are supposed to be value-added to the user. Less time playing and more time in the UI is NOT value added.
Having dropped 5 times with my wolfhound, tweaking it after each drop, it still feels worse off than before this skill-tree monstrosity. Can you even begin to imagine what it feels like for someone who has 236 mechs to skill out, and to attempt to have them perform AT LEAST as well as before? It's too daunting.. and most likely not worth the effort. Seriously, what goes through your heads? You always seem to go overboard with every stinkin decision you make.

Experienced pilots are telling me they're taking a break from this game. These are pilots that had a hard-core love affair with this game.. and they are taking a break.

He Is correct. I don't know If I want to spend the time to Re-spec out all of my mechs, I just did two. It took 10 minutes of Boredom. Just gotta spend another 8 hours doing this now?? AYFKM PGI?

Break my behind I am out.

The best part is wasting premium time in the mech-lab.. prem time should only be used WHEN it is used.. in lobby, in-game, etc. Not in the click-tree.

Be careful, if you are respeccing before generating XP, it is using GXP.

What does GXP even do anymore? Another thing I just noticed, after specing out a 3rd mech, a night gyr, I realized that I didnt need all that thrust calibration BS, oops, well now that I already used a Skill point, I cant sell it, or deactivate it, I need to BUY MOAR stuff to adjust the skill tree whatsoever. I... I don't even know what to say. I mean, I read the notes, but I guess I missed out on just how horrible this was gonna be.

...Imagine if they put the effort on this junk into actually working on something worthwhile (new maps, optimization, bug fixes, etc.)

It hurts to think about.

PGI + Russ + Paul..... thanks for the WASTE of time we gotta spend on this. I'd rather YOU have set quirks for each mech instead of US doing ALL the damn work... I mean srsly.... I don't post often and this simply won't do. I want to just play and be done with it..... i don't want to **** around with the skill tree for X minutes per mech.... im sorry but no. I'm thinking its time for a refund.

YOU could have done something different than shoving the skill tree down our throats without first trying it yourself with ALL the mechs you own just to see how much of a waste of time it is.

Summary:

Over complicated. My limited game time just turned into a ponderous nightmare of missing out on one thing to gain marginal benefits in another.

I don't even contain the desire, I wanted to... but.. dang it. dang it all to heck!

[TK TikTok]

You have got to be Joking! Why would this Skill Tree UI and notion EVER be considered usable? Are you all insane at PGI? PLEASE REVERT TO THE OLD PATCH, GET THE LAST BRANCH OUT OF SOURCE CODE CONTROL AND REBUILD, DO SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[T R 0 U B L E]

All I wanted to do was sign on and play a couple games, I spent years building up my mech selection do you really think we all have time to spend hours nit picking over 1 percent here and there wtf. that's your job. you make the game we play, I already got my mechs where i wanted them, then you nerfed em, then the weapons, and now this i don't have time for which really sucks because i love this game... wtf i guess i'll check back in a month and see if it's fixed and if there's any players left

That's just it, they think we have all the time in the world to figure the best tree for every mech we own.. in essence they are saying we have no life.. lol

I had a blast changing out mech loadouts before. I won't even think about changing my builds now cuz then I gotta rethink the click-tree.. just a huge overall decrease in game enjoyment. One big boondoggle.

What kind of idiot designed this disaster? I have been here since Beta but this is the last straw. I tried to figure out the skill tree system but it's a mess. I told my unit that I'm done with this game. Good luck to the brave (or crazy) people who hang around for the next kick in the balls.

I have four years of premium time... I can afford to use it in the lobby. If I worried about premium time I'd actually log off when I go to bed.

Hey PGI you are suppose to make the game MORE enjoyale to play, you didn't.

Congrats on your new brown cloud.

I used to get 96-120 frames per second as of this morning before the patch...NOW I GET *9*, even after restarting the client!!! You guys not only rolled out a broken, cumbersome, and over-complicated skill tree, but you also broke simple things l like FPS. I'm running a GTX 980, and an overclocked core i5. Absolutely no reason my FPS should drop by 90% after a skill tree patch that had two test server sessions.
