Well gee, I'm sure as hell am not going to grind SMGs, classes I don't like or an M8 Avenger on Gold or Platinum. Or trying to attack enemies with Tech Armor, etc... Basically, 1/2 of what's available is suicide on Platinum and somewhat on Gold.

People are complaining because they were promised these updates weekly, but have been getting delayed every week. Seems like something normal people complain about. It would be much better if they did the balance updates bi weekly....

Delayed by only one day each time with a proper notice and always for good reasons (N7 day, halloween challenge, november 11th holiday), is this really that big of a deal? Not mentioning that they have no obligation to update the game weekly, just saying...

Maybe it is a big deal for some people. And then they complain about it. Maybe a bunch of people didn't get black ops today or halo last week just so they could play mass with the new update and character. Those people would obviously have been crushed, week after week. And you are correct, they have no OBLIGATION, but it seems like people feel Bioware says things and then doesn't follow up. Halloween is a good excuse? That's not a real holiday everyone still has to go to work. Veterans day is a good excuse? Do canadians even celebrate veterans day?

It would just be better if they did it bi weekly. Most likely less delays, and hopefully less complaints. It's simple public relations dont you think. They would have more time, since they obviously can't keep up with the schedule they gave us

Or they could release the new players? Thats what most people want. They have no real obligation but neither do we to keep playing. They release the new players to keep us playing and hopefully paying. With all the new games coming out giving us something new and fun to play with seems like a good thing for both of us. Or just push it to wensday so we don't expect to have a new player to try out and then feel let down when we do not.

I feel sorry for Bioware having to read the **** in this thread.

This week's balance changes will be delayed. We will try to get them out tomorrow.

Here is a preview of some of the changes we are looking at:

• Increasing the XP/Score multipliers for Gold and Platinum difficulties. We are seeing a tendency for players to play at lower difficulties in order to complete challenges, so hopefully this will entice players to keep mastering the higher difficulties.
  
  
• Reducing the shield gate cooldown.
  

Does this mean we get less shieldgate or does it mean our shieldgate charges up quickers?

Very glad you noticed that one.

Here is one player that is able to solo most Bronze level games, unless the enemy is the Collector's. Those are some tough mothers. I can play Silver as long as I have strong players with me, but right now anything higher for me is just suicide. I need my best weapons and characters to survive and contribute on Silver. I just admire you gamers who can play Gold and Platinum. Maybe I just haven't unlocked the right weapons/characters, but after using a Volus for a bit after unlucking "it", I needed help just to get through a Bonze mission. Depending on the Challenge, I will likely still use Bronze for many of them, cause the parameters would be just too tough for me on a higher level.

[Urdnot Trex]

Surprise surprise. No changes today. Why don't they just permanently make them Wednesday? This is the 5th week in a row!

[Neverwinter_Knight77]

I don't suppose there is any way to start releasing the new character on Tuesdays and balance changes on Wednesdays, is there? These "delays" have become the norm now.

[Heldarion]

Bioware, I mean, really. Four times in a row?

Just say weekly balance changes will be every Wednesday, I'm absolutely fine with that. But don't say it'll be every Tuesday and postpone it every single %&#$%ing time.

I hate to be hyped up (to whatever degree) and told "not today" and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

[WrathAscending]

I'm starting to think the weekly delay has more to do with the staggered release of new characters and/or Hazard rotation than anything else; up until Retaliation the changes were every Tuesday even when it was a short working week. Since Retaliation, though, it's always taken an extra day.

Unfortunately I don't see BioWare biting the bullet and just releasing all the remaining characters or making all the Hazard maps permanently available, so we're probably stuck with this for another two months at least.

[UnicornsFolly]

XP increases are a step in the right direction, but I'd like to see something that affects the "Waves played" challenges. Maybe a successful gold/platinum extraction counts for a good 3 waves or something. I'm still leaning towards bronze since I can dish out 10 waves in 15 minutes vs 25 minutes on gold (and maybe 25 minutes isn't a good time, but it's pretty average for me if I'm not farming glacier/cerberus).

Woo! Delayed again! Consistancy for the win.

F the balance changes. Give us the new characters already. (Plus I miss the Piranha's 8 round clip... I mean... We can see the 8 slots in the weapon ffs...)

[JohnBorrows]

Duly Noted lol

[Leonia]

So just move update day to Wednesday. Three weeks of delays in a row is a trend.

[RoseLaddie]

Seriously? Just move the balance changes to Wednesday. These delays are more tragic than they are funny now.

Maybe people wouldn't play Cerberus Silver to earn the Guardians 3 challenge if MORE GUARDIANS SPAWNED IN GOLD. Instead, in Gold, it's Dragoon after Dragoon after Dragoon, and Phantom upon Phantom upon Phantom.

With the current wave and spawning structure, lower difficulties see more appearances of the "easier" enemies. So as a person who's 100k Guardian points away from Cerberus Mastery, I'm going to play Cerberus Silver where I'll simply find a lot more Guardians than in Gold.

I hope they divide the enemy challenges by match difficulty just to see the reaction.

[bassetlab]

I agree. Just move it to Wednesday. Wait..then that would be delayed until Thursday..

[Slaanax]

I almost spent all my credits on packs right now nearly forgot about the delay would have made me sad.
