WORSE POWER GRIND for Solo 500+ Players!

One has to ask the fundamental question of whether or not you actually like your players. The power level changes you announced were great in theory, but absolutely suck in implementation. First, you brought back TIMERS to solo missions. Second, you pulled back the power increase for combatants when adding modifiers, which is fine. But then you put in a CAP so you're still 30 points handicapped against combatants, and changed the scoring system making it harder to reach a level for which you're given a drop at a higher level than you're currently at. Seriously, WTF? Do you just not care if the solo players get fed up and leave the game once and for all? The whole reason people complained about the power increases for combatants with each modifier is because the didn't want every single mission to be a sweat show, as it's just not enjoyable. Most of us have jobs and aren't streamers who do nothing but game all day. We like to be rewarded in a game like this for the time we spend. If we're not, we'll move on. You also need to understand the basic psychological principle that people don't like to have things taken away. That alone has driven 40% or more of the player base away.
