How much experience did each of you have with original Magicka before you started designing this game and changing elements from the original?

Argotha may be the only one raging in the forum on this on the regular, but I'm pretty sure that's because the rest of us just aren't even bothering with this game right now, waiting on these fixes to be implemented before giving it a second chance.

If you can find a single experienced player that doesn't agree with most of the suggested ward-fixes, I would be shocked.

When I sign onto Steam, I NEVER see any of the wizards I know on M2. Each and every one is still on MWW.

If you're REALLY not sure these proposed changes are good, you need to test your understanding of the game mechanics against the understanding of the people suggesting these changes.

Even in your own game, I bet Argotha, or any of the experienced MWW players, could easily wipe any two to three of you guys solo. You may know the code better, but you certainly dint know your gameplay better. These issues we've been bringing up, They Are Core To Gameplay Value. If you dont address them, this game will never really appeal to anyone other than an occasional casual player.

You have a group of people that play one or another form of Magicka DAILY, not for just one play through. Don't you want our money? ? ?

While I think the tone of that topic is too aggressive, I do agree with the general idea.

I BET a bunch of professional Magicka players will jump right in to do any testing they could possibly need, completely for free. And yes, developers do not play all that good, as seen in streams. But it's only natural, they do not have time to play this game like advanced players do.

I think the tone of the OP was fine. How long has this game been released?

Good Magicka players already jumped in to test the game. We told them the problem during the sneak peek. They didn't listen. They probably won't either because they're noobs and don't realize we aren't.
