Anything heard in the last, oh, 2-3 months?

Exactly the same for every other profession but you dont see people crying about them.

[Strupstad]

I remember posting this once already, but you can go look in the NT forum for all the information available, which is quite a lot, about the upcoming changes to NT nanos.

Of course I've seen it. But alas, MA's also have their stuff lined out for them, and now Means is saying he's having a sit down with the whole team to discuss this further and set it in stone.

So let me rephrase; why did they not discuss NT's first, so everyone could vent their anger over what's being done for a longer period of time (because, let's face it, nobody are going to like it anyway).

Proven, tried and tested method to have something changed: whine like a rock star. All you NT's should be familiar with this

[Vitaliy]

I dont see why you are so bothered by what order they do these discussions in considering they will all be done, tested and smoothed out in one go and will all be released at the same time, it really doesnt make the slightest bit of difference which professions are done first unless you want those extra few days/weeks to rage on the forums about how much you disagree.

And yet they've not released any information to the public and already people are whining

For all we know they may decide to release the documents, if they release the documents, all at once.

After all the whining I don't see them releasing them one at a time though, so congratulations and thanks...

Here's another thought on why they may be talking about MA changes first (presuming it is first, never actually said it was). MAs may not really need all that many nano changes as for one thing they never had too many to start with. A prof like NTs or Crats have tooons of nanos affecting many other things.

As they move along through other profs they likely would need to go back and make adjustments to earlier ones. Better to take on ones that would have less first and leave the more involved ones for later as it'd mean less going back to make specific adjustments. The general stuff was already hammered out months ago, now it's time for specifics from what I gather.

[NoGoal]

That doesn't make sense. The reason to start with MAs is there. See this.

[Louderer789]

Let me be the first to start a preemptive nerf cry against MAs. Whatever they get, its too good!

[Strupstad]

^ I'll jump on that bandwagon!

You like hats, don't you?

[NoGoal]

Bazinga!

[ElBoogy]

I don´t get the joke with hats, maybe i missed something somewhere, but why do so many people have avatars with hats now?

and where is mine?

[Omutb]

Kintaii was giving them out the other day, but only in limited numbers.

The fates decides if you get a hat.

[Kintaii]

there will be more hats. the fates have been stockpiling them and they are building up quite the collection (i have seen it it is v. impressive). but when will the fates give them out??? only they know the answer to that question.

except me. i know the answer too because the fates and i are pretty tight (we are friends from back in the day - fate still owes me like twenty bucks from that one time in cleveland). i promised i wouldnt tell anyone though so you guys will just have to keep watching reets retreat for signs of incoming hattery. itll be awesome i promise.

hooray for hats.

[nubbs]

might i suggest something like this?

[vallikat]

Ohh!! I'll be looking out for hats! I leave for vacation in a week and I'll need a hat to protect my delicate skin.

[PhoenixOfAges]

Bazinga!

Heh. I like the pink chef hat. Do you wear a "kiss the chef" apron?

[Mastablasta]

Because NTs are not one of the professions in real need, meaning that the changes to NT toolset is sort uninteresting for the larger crowd as opposed to MA and Keeper nanos. MAs have been gimped for an age and keepers are played by far more people. You already know that triples and doubles and constant barrage will no longer exist, so I don't see what your point is, honestly.
