Colored gear with specific classes.

Wow, what's with the sudden defeatism?

I mean, why bother with the feedback forums at all, in that case?

'Fact remains we were ill-informed and mis-lead with regard to how colours would work in the run-up to patch 1.19, and a lot of people aren't pleased about it. There's an even more vocal thread speaking against this on the Japanese subforum (the one that inevitably matters most) and I wouldn't be surprised if there were similar ones in the others, too.

Yes, the developers have a nasty habit of keeping quiet on problem issues (though not always), but they generally speak up, even on difficult subjects, when questions pick up this much steam on this many of the subforums.

And again, yes, someone has pointed it out: today is a Japanese national holiday. We will most likely not get an official response until tomorrow at the earliest.

And while we're at it, 'everyone' didn't scream "get rid of Tanaka" or "we love Yoshi". A majority might have but God knows, I and a fair few others certainly didn't, and I think we're all starting to realise that either way it's Yoichi Wada and co' ought have received all the vitriol for the initial mess, however happy he and the other S-E executives may be to let grow this popular idea of Tanaka as some sort of feckless jerk with whom the fault lies in its entirety.
