It's been said before, it'll be said again. DC travel was inevitable, it's not our fault that they didn't plan ahead with it. But the genies out of the bottle now, and heavy handed moves like the one they made with this change is absolutely crippling. I continue to be baffled by the contrarians coming in here with their blinders on saying these changes are actually a good thing, they're not. It's so painfully obvious how horrible they are for the game health at this stage and it cannot continue for very long like this.

All this just to force people into a dead DC. Great move.
It's too late, the damage is done. The wound has gone necrotic and the body has gone septic. People have left FCs to transfer to Aether, statics have broken apart, venues have seen a lot less traffic, social circles are broken, and people are quitting for all the reasons above. People have left my FC, my friends list is barren from people having quit. My venue use to see > 80 people every Friday night up until DT release, and now we're struggling to see more than 30 on a good night, and their number one complaint is having to fight the DC Travel every week.

Everyone was hoping they would have treated the wound with 7.1 and made the game healthy again, but it seems that CBU3 is stubborn/incapable of making smart decisions.
