No more CR unless on a special server ? If you have followed VG since the beginning, you would know just how huge a change this really is (could be).

You know, when I first heard about the death penalty in WoW, I thought "shit, that's a joke" after not having played EQ in a few years, and probably 5 years since I'd played the game outside of a guild with fifty or so epic-ized clerics. I thought that CR was a necessary evil in a MMOG, that surely you should have to trudge back and retrieve your beloved possessions.
Then I got into the early VG beta, and died repeatedly in the newbie dungeons due to bugs, crashes, and the like (<3 the ant dungeon outside of Tursh, maybe it's fixed now, but we're talking Blackburrow type trains just popping out of walls randomly). And I thought "fuck this, having to CR is just a flat out kick in the balls, surely the death penalty can be implemented some other way" after about the 5th time a group of mine got whiped out. This was also not helped by SGODesign people who were in the group logging off immediately and not helping with CR, that was real cool btw (even though the corpses/characters are worth nothing due to the beta nature, it was still exceedingly gay for 3 of 4 SGO people to log).
So are you complaining that there's (potentially) no CR in the game? Because then I'd say, fucking rights there isn't, that's just a shitty feature that causes nothing but frustration.
If you're complaining that they changed their minds and aren't sticking to The Vision, then I'd say fucking rights, they realized that their idea was wrong, and they're acting to rectify it for the good of the game.
