Community manager/Head GM:

Has to be a person with at least 3k hours spent in the game, someone who knows each corner of this game, each and every little bug, glitch, tip and trick. Someone who truly understands what this community needs, and has answers to all questions related to Combat Arms history, present and future. We don't need another robot in a row, a person who will blindly execute all orders coming from "above"

This is a very delicate matter for us veterans, for the players who have invested thousands and thousands of hours, euros and nerve cells in this game. So, please, choose wisely and do not rush your decisions. You cannot fool us anymore but be sure that you can easily lose us "again"

We have vCryonize (The survey βitch who made all the surveys and runs the facebook) is he close enough? He has played the game for a whole 3 weeks!1!!11!!

I just need the old Rpg´s/Mine damage and the true old graphics, not that "classic" graphic after CA: Re release, aside all the fix needed since years.

As someone who started playing the game starting in July 2008, I can say I'm glad that the game has taken a turn in this direction. I logged in for the first time recently after a year or so and the gameplay is a lot more enjoyable and fluid - although the "connection to the server has ended" is still a nuisance and I find that lobby chat a bit small and unused. The voice chat has returned but it really needs a push button. If the return to Classic CA means 2008-2010, then I'm for it, but anything between now and then is not classic. Whatever the state of Combat Arms is now is good, and can only be improved, but I dread the mistake the Nexon made will be repeated - and that is to "fix" something that isn't broken. I believe the best user interface/HUD was the one the game had upon release. It was easy to navigate around servers/channels, finding and skimming through gear/weapons in the shop was easy and the clan tab wasn't buggy. If we return to anything, it is pre-2010 CA while keeping the good that the game has now.

I truly believe Combat Arms will thrive in its current community if Valofe invests time and creativity in skins and cosmetics that can only be bought with real money - much like the Team Fortress 2 model (inb4 tf2 h8; think about it).
Combat Arms boasts an enormous amount of guns, guns and more guns, but can you say the same about the cosmetic side of things (in proportion)?

Specialists ? Just another way to destroy games with some unbalanced weapons. Specialists should only be allowed in Fireteam/Quarantine that's it.
Abilities ? What ? Gone for years before Reloaded

Specialists and abilities were removed June 2016. You could use until the removal in all modes the Battlemaster for blocking specialists except in Fireteam & Quarantine .
Many player left the game in that time. And Reloaded didn't help to grow the community either. It made it even worse.

Ofc you can give your opinion but try at least to bring good points and not memes videos.

Customization ? What ? You can still custom your weapons by putting a scope or mag ? or do you mean gun emporium ? If so, that was gone before Reloaded.
Maps ? Are you seriously crying for Dark forest or Deadly dunes ? pls I want to know what you really mean with "etc" because your points so far are bad, you are just not accepting the changes.

@MrHaze
Yes I agree that cheaters we're annoying sometimes but yes, mixing both of them will be fine.

Yes I speak of the gun emporium, yes it was removed before reloaded but the specialists too and yet it remains a part of the old CA! I do not cry as you say, I give my opinion and it's my right, whether you like it or not I do not care ^^

I accept change only if it would be good for everyone. Do you like CA to look like a CS: GO? What sets CA apart from other FPS games? Nothing, it became a FPS like the others! People do not want to play CS: GO when they play CA, they want to play CA! It's because of a player like you, who complained about everything that Nexon took out all that was fun.

[Easton25300]

When people talk about the old CA, it's not for what you quoted .. But for everything that made the game unique and fun! Specialist, ability, customization, rooms with a name, maps and modes removed from the game ... etc

Great to see you too OverConfidence ex LuckyCurse hope you're doing well. Can't wait to see how's Valofe going to manage CA. So many things to fix/improve, so much work to do for them now. Wont be be easy for sure but hey I'll stay positive for now.

You've got some fair points there but honestly idk if matchmaking is the best idea for clan wars since we all know how many cheaters with low ranks flooded CW in the past, I did not play clan wars for a long time now, like 2 years, so cant really judge if there was more or less problems with or without MM. For the rest such as GP balance, graphic and so on. We'll just have to wait and see whats going to happen after "classic" campaign. Personally I guess they can combine things from "old" and "new" CA, and make it really great again.

[OverConfidence]

And good morning Haze! On the old forum I was called "LuckyCurse" I'm glad to see you're still here

Like I said before, what is "OLD CA" or "CLASSIC COMBAT ARMS" anyways ?
Most of the players today are spamming it ingame, since Valofe took over, Discord, Facebook. But what does that really mean ?
-Load an old version with fps spread bug,
-125 hz support,
-no new graphics (for the ppl who likes them)
-Having to search clan wars but now you make a group and it search for you, random enemies, random map,
-No more "NO PLAY GO OUT OR KICK" in clan wars"
-No more "YOU HAVE BEEN KICKED FROM THE GAME ROOM" during the clan war, because you were using the good gears but you made a double kill
-No more match making
-No more weapon balance, GP balance ? ...

Hey, before Valofe asks ppl to go back to the old one, they should tell us what that really means,
if that means including the fixes in the old interface, alot of ppl will vote for it aswell.

And sure, I agree if they want to keep Reloaded, they need to fix/change the UI/Interface but it feels like what ppl want from the old Lobby is that you could sit and chat with the other players easly and having "partys" like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVt84kH9qk0 which is stupid but whatever!
