    can i ask what is your actual goal for the T8 content? 
    it cant be fun because from observations of many players in the different sectors ive been in not many have having much of that  and some are quitting and giving up.

    are the designers aware that the T8 content is overly difficult , pushing players away from playing ? 

    do they test the content much with a variety of ships that are not just elites?

    i went back to farm some  Skirmishers 107, zircons 104 &106 to upgrade my MK3 vals and are basically done for the day  it isnt fun , its too difficult to get tech using T7 or even using T7 with T8  unlock Mk levels  and tech

    if you actually want us to progress through the game and to enjoy it things need to be easier.   
       
    some level of difficulty is enjoyable but this level is not even close and really only the people who spend money to make T8 fleets of Mk5 are the only ones having fun right now. 

    you should not need elites to unlock the easiest parts of the T8 content or to make your ships better

    mk5 bastions struggle very badly against malware targets and basically die, why is that?  when altarian should be able to defeat the lowest of pharma targets, what was the point of having the altairian event before pharma  when those ships are basically useless against Malware?

    I see plenty of questions in this thread.

    Im curious, anyone intending to actually answer some of this questions? since at the end of the day the name of the topic is Q&A, but I am either blind or I see only questions here, not a single answer?

    Yes I know, and I was referring to them but I did not specify that in the post.

    Guess for that reason there was a misunderstanding :)

    no they   dont  ikeep saying  this

    least  of all  do they  ever  go through  the physical  menatl anguish of grindingamk6  ship...? No
    physical grind of equpingMK6  ship with Levl3/ and 4 RI? No

    Cuz any sane person who plays their  own game WOULD NOT DESIGN that mechanic.
    its that  simple,why does no one get this

    well done gentlemens, after 2 years of losing interest for the game i decided to return, thx to my ingame friends. all was going well till you decided  phasing V2, now events are harder, only with t8, and even with that gear game its hard, losing interest again.

    I have an actual question for the QA thread, is this how T8 is going to be? I think I did pretty well in T7. I feel like, in spite of the grind and imbalances between factions, I was able to build and mark-up fleets that were effective. My only disappointment was that I was only able to find the extra grind time to get 1 marked up Dreadnought, a Mk5 Behemoth, my others are only Mk2. Now, I find my previously effective T7 fleets aren't any longer. I find the things that I need to be successful in T8 are the things that came latest in T7 and were either far more grindy, or expensive, to get, or are mked up T8. My question, again, because I'm feeling incredibly discouraged, is this how T8 is going to be, because if this is the plan I think the Game Team needs to reevaluate it.

    Yeah. Kix are really going downhill on the whole listening to the community thing. Not that the Hill was very high to begin with.

    Is there going to be a December/mobilisation discussion or are we stuck with this “Q and A” that kixeye have responded to exactly 0 times. This is why everyone thinks you suck.

    Is there any point doing the DECEMBER mobilisation if kix are hell bent on running the game into the ground and banning all dissenters? The fact that I’m having to ask this in the NOVEMBER Q and A thread that so far has had no answers and it’s half way through December speaks volumes.

    Altarian United fleets are not giving any MK upgrades.  
    I have been farming them for an hour and no drops. 
    Must be a bug.

    No, they just have utterly crap drop rates.

    Why does the browser support post have a photo of the arse end of a space shuttle orbiter in it?

    The patch notes say the new ship’s mk2-5 is in mobilisation. Is this true or does no one, not even kixeye, understand what’s going on anymore. Also there’s new armours, oh boy, another 200+ fragments to grind per fleet. This is why no one I’ve ever talked to in game has ever had anything good to say about kixeye.

    Did you not listen to anyone saying the weapons and defences were too many fragments? Or are you listening and just ignoring us? I guess the lack of responses in this 50 comment thread should give me be answer to that.

    Again. Where’s the December Q thread? It’s half way through. (Notice Q and not Q and A. Because that really is a misnomer.)

    Yeah. There isn’t a streak breaker on them so you could hit as many of them as you want and never get one. It’s pretty unlikely but could happen.

    You’re actually going through with remote repair? The one thing everyone told you would be utterly ****? I honestly think kix don’t listen to anything. This is probably the final straw in this long drawn out death.

    Can you explain the reasoning behind remote repair without using the words “money” or “coiners”. All it does is give people who spend far too much an even bigger combat advantage. It doesn’t matter how well you fly if they can just instantly fix it all without even going back to their base.

    Can I have a refund for the one thing I bought before you went back to being literally the worst developers?

    Watch me get banned for voicing my opinion. Kixeye don’t like any criticism.

    We said the game would die with demon corp being too strong but here we are
