Seriously? Of course its confirmed........the "game is ruined" comments are not about a hypothetical change. I just spent over 1 hour flying 1/2 way accross the Center map and back. Stopping at EVERY GD island to get stam and flying at half speed. I run a private server with friends and the promises that there is a way to bypass this nerf are hollow so far. My friends are all fed up and want to quit - its just too frustrating. I have no problem with them adjusting the OP nature of the flyers - but they didn't do it right. Each type of flyer and its utility and base stats should have been examined. There should have been separate rules for PVP servers vs PVE since they face entirely different issues. The MAP that the flyers on is RELEVANT - the Center is more flyer-dependent in some ways due to size, layout, physical land obstacles, etc. The nerf needs to be UNDONE WildCard! Perhaps - redone correctly after some analysis. What I don't understand is why there isn't more alpha testing and feedback accumulation before making such a drastic change to existing functionality. New features are great, but when you are going to change or remove features, its best to at least test them before putting them out there. Yes, I know this is a "pre-release", but some customer feedback would have been a good idea here. I predict a mass Exodus - and that's just sad - really loved this game, but not going to sink more money into a server with no enjoyment........
