    Can we get Paxman to conduct the Q&A?

    It's probably been written already, but -

    I'm fine with the answer re: roster slots that we're not intended to have all the characters. But if that's the approach please don't make them essentials, or give us a base level loaner like PvP.

    Also, are you looking at token draws?

    In extra addition to my first post, because this just clicked in my mind as absurd justification:
    "David wrote:

    ... who? Who in hell enjoys making 'difficult decisions' about who to keep on their roster? Seriously - find me 3 posts on here in recent times that are along the lines of "Ooo, awesome! Spent 5 days grinding for a new cover! Now I have the joy of working out if I can keep it or if I have to delete someone else I spent 5 days grinding for! Sc0re!"
    Reminds me of the time when they removed guaranteed covers from cover packs and found that players REALLY enjoyed it because they are buying more cover packs and the devs just "can't figure out why".

    A thousand times, this.
    *Sarcasm time!
    I just LOVE picking which character I'm going to delete to make room for the next featured character. Nothing is more fun than deleting my characters!

    Also, I just LOVE spending 80 dollars on a 42 pack and having a 1 in 4 chance I won't even get a token for the featured character. That's why I buy so many token packs.
    *Sarcasm's done

    I hope to big feline that you didn't actually buy a 42-pack

    I did a long while ago when I still needed most covers and was doing my 2-3 transition. I think they were only 40 packs with a larger discount at that point, though. That was probably 8 months ago, considering I'll be hitting Dino rewards this week.

    Anyway, I would never ever buy one again. It seems that if you want to do the essential nodes for PVE though, you'll either need to get top 50 in the previous PVE or pay for a giant token pack (perhaps MULTIPLE giant token packs. YAY!)

    Now that we're past the anniversary cluster kitty, we should be back to the every-other-week release schedule, so new characters should probably only be essential for pves that reward old characters
