Getting ready for the core?
Personally i think OOO lowered the difficulty on T3 because T4 is supposed to be even harder,
but so many people were already complaining about the current lvl of game content.
If they haden't removed current harder attacks, this would have ment that T4 would have seen all monsters become as stronger, including oilers,
which in my opinion would have left T4 as a dead area, because it would have been just too over-powered and just an energy-waste.
I think they will actually introduce what they just removed in T4 along with buffing health and attacks of
all the monsters that now are way too easy ( e.g. lumbers, chromalisks etc. )
So my point is they removed hard content because they felt T3 should be managable.
But T4 will come and it will be deadlier then an old oiler danger room. This was just a Pre-Core patch.

What will kinda suck is that you'll probably have to upgrade to higher star... or alteast reach the core.. luckily for me I have

Since when were they adding a T4 ...
- Yeah, I've heard there might be a T9001 soon! -

Doubt it will be called T4..probably just the core. To be honest I would rather wait a bit longer for the core to open and let them add in some other things like PVP.

lol. all true. im just bored and going along with this.
I don't think we will be seeing The Core for 6-12 months. This is still a new game and if they rush through the story line what's the fun of that. They got to keep there paying user's interested as long as possible. They might add some information as to what discoveries they have learned about The Core from now until it opens just to keep users excited about it but that's about it.
theyve had what..? 3 remakes of the core already? its not as if they have nothing to go on already, Bunny. they just keep redesigning and adding things. the most recent core was pretty bland, so they removed it. not much else to it i guess.
Well I know we can see it but I mean being able to continue on. I am just guessing that players will be able to explore the core. Whenever SK decides that they are ready to do whatever they have planned for The Core.

Yeah I don't really like the core now.
It's not hard to eventually expand the story to where you can go past the Core, it doesn't necessarily have to finish there.
The Core itself could hold many more levels since the vast amount of energy could have held onto even more ''worlds'' than the normal clockworks do. These ''worlds'' could be home to vastly different creatures, not just redesigned ones of Tiers 1~3.
Core Fringe
Outer Core
Core Boundry
Inner Core
Heart of Cradle
There's another 10 stratums.
#3 OVER 9000?! THIS IS MADNESS!
A lot of enemies are too easy now, so it'll be boring if they don't add a harder place. if they do though, they better add higher gear too, and not just new stuff, people already spent enough on old 5s.
They will already be adding new stuff with the new boss token rewards, but a cool thing for sure would be
a whole new drop table with new materials that would be used to enhance ur gear.
This would work like Uv's but not for the same boosts, could also add some particle effect e.g. when wolvers dive but this will be for ur weapon lol
Anyway i like the idea of a the core not being the last Tier, like matuse proposed.
Maybe the three last lvl's wouldn't be depths but just 3 Boss battles in a row, without any healing in between,
but health pills would have been buffed in the core lvl's before, which means u got like 3 pills that restore ur full health or something.
Wow i like this idea lol, like 2 commanders and The Creator =p
If the core isn't the last level are we just going to end up on the other side of Cradle?
What we think being the core is mayeb just another layer

The core should offer a whole new series of enemies. No recoloured foxes thank you!
Even if they released the core now, I don't think people would find the game "boring", it's an everchanging world guys, as we speak, the world is changing. Or well, atleast every week?
New weapon designs, events and much much more to come in the future, enjoy every single update this game has to offer, and stop being so negative about only three tiers being boring.
The tier 3 armours and weapons in this game are already very detailed, if there was a t4, t5 or t9001, the armours/weapons would look extremely ugly. In my opinion, t3 is enough. Of course, a new world would've been awesome! The abillity to travel from different worlds, and in the different worlds, there could be t4 and so on! I don't know ... xD

We still need three more Tier 3 bosses (one for each status condition). Vana is fire, but we don't have ones for poison, freeze and shock.
The core once released will probably require good teamwork with 4 different armor sets, so that at least one person in the party is resistant to every type of status ailment.
At least that's what I'm picturing in my head anyway.
Wait until Tier 5. I, for one, await our curb-stomping overlords with glee.
