Some questions to STAFF about 2.7

Seems there are some changes on the normal gamez aion playgame.

- The instances Cooldown is one of them, so may i ask to the staff if its gonna be changed? Or since now instance will have cooldown?

In thatcase, you should let ppl get eternal items from instance, since cant do it all day long, same with relics NPCs..

It would still be unfair for newbies.. couse if they cannot farm instances to get gold items to break and get enchants.. there is no way they could gear up, couse enchants wont be got from world drops..........

- Same on droprate, you said this would be fixed on this patch, so we have to understand that this is you call "fixed", so is it gonna stay this way forever?

- Another thing is.. Terminon and Primum Shield are over. So, ppl dying next to the obelisk as others cities.


Is ironic how you say you want to change the server to become more retail like, but change certain things for economy benefit. There will be no more benefit when the server gets empty, ask whoever you want, people just stay on Gamez couse of the population, their friends.. You want retail like? Let be all retail like not only what is in your convenience.

Also.. I think that changing too important things as you're doing now is a mistake and only makes unbalance. Its not like you wipe the server and all the ppl start with same conditions.

 

ur assuming all the things in this update r intentional, its not so

as u see, lots of things that used to work broke while yea some might have gotten fixed. 2.7 update goes like this

1. google an open source project
2. copy paste the files
3. pray ur server starts up

something like that most of it is totally unintentional

 

Fix everything to work as should work and not as Majority wants..

Many QQ about shields... (Shields removed)..
Drop Rate will never fixed.. they say every time "will be fixed on next update" since 2.0

 

I'm not going to even attempty to adress this entire thread (and I'm not going to as a staff member), but I starkly am quite glad that abyss pvp is now opened up again.

The only reason someone would be against it would be if they supported the innane zerging in gelk-ingii that so many people detest (myself included). Knowing that many people would flock to the abyss to avoid the rather... unsightly... 'pvp' that occurs there.

In terms of the rest I'm not a fair judge/opinion because I already have gear.

 

Thats what im asking, If this is not intentional means they are going to change it.. But would be nice to get any explain from Staff and not only users'

/edit: About Primus and terminon shields, its not qq.. its like Retail have a shield couse ppl abuse before and kill people on the obelisk and flight npc all the time. PvP is not meant to be forced on travelling and ressurecting npcs and having the shield on doesnt mean pvp on abyss is over. If you think that, is couse on abyss you only pvp this way, killing the ppl tryng to get somewhere or shopping on the broker, or warewhose.. thats lame. You can go Core, or the rest of the abyss, you know?

 

yeah i miss the good old abyss pvp too, the 1 place i could solo freely but yeah u need to make spawn protection work properly otherwise we will go to the good old obelisk camping at the only abyss entrance, its pathetic

again, assuming they even know how, tbh things only got more bugged since 1.5 xD every major update brought more bugs, be4 they fix half of them, another major update comes out and bugs more

ud need to hire a real dev and actually pay him rather than a volunteer that experiments with the "lets see what happens" updates

 

I am against Zerg.. but when they say Retail like they should follow retail.... They turned off shield cause retail has em off? no.. cause some told it so... .. why they dont fix Assassins dmg.. Sorc's Nukes or w/e has problem than changing something that works as should be working...

 

Im not saying they shouldnt update the server!. Im just asking the staff to explain if this is gonna be changed or not, its not hard to understand. Just want them to say something

 

Actually Devs have a test server... So when they announce a fix, we assume they already tested it. And about drops, CDs and everthing all its assumed as on purpose since they say retail like... But like PoWell says if you are going to make it retail... Do it, but not half way... Getting Armor out and sell it thru website when they were available before... Thats just not fair... thats why I actually dont get online anymore like I used to... Got online yesterday after update to verify everything was working ok... change character once... Logout... and nothing else...

Well Good Luck GAMEZ with repairing the updates if some things are broken..

 

yes they have a test server, guess what, apparently (according to sycth) they dont test new updates there (making it totally useless)

tbh 1 guy posted screenshots of 5-10 bugs within the first 10 mins after the update, pretty major ones too lol, its not something u could just miss if u actually tested

 

grr why QQ bout shields.. no1 goes abyss these days, only noobs to do quests there. its a good thing shields are down now once fort works u'll see pvp in air specially for those who dun wanna get stumble to death by glads lolol and this server will be as retail as it gets i mean if u want retail go retail gamez high rates and other alterations un-retail-like are awsome except for the bugs i suppose.

 

ANd can only kill ppl who wants to fly somewhere else? Or on broker, or JUst sit on a "secure place", or warewhouse.. THAT is what you call Abyss PVP?

 

Totally agree, and as PoWeLL said we want answers, becose seriously i mean what do we as community need to do to be heard in this server?

as people said if aiming for retail then remove the high rate crap, and go retail all way, put all back to droping , let all work really hard for it, Or if u gonna do it higher simply high exp isnt enough, i mean why would people even bother throwing 30-40 dollars a month donating for stuff in this server? when they can experience none broken game in retail atleast in retail u have all drops and everything working 100% even tho lvln takes ages but hey thats ok to thinking about it...

 

downside? lol abyss is dead as fas as pvp is concern still missing something so it can be active again. being high rank i got camped by sins there but u dun see me qqing so why are u so mad ? is the abyss the place where u dupe items and thats why u need it safe? cuz i hardly see any1 there in all times i go lev my noobs and i lev sins so wont matter if theres asmos.

 

Abyss PvP can be "activated" again another way, not making Noobs killing indefence guys where they're not suppose to get into.

I dont matter what rank you are or who the hell you think you are, i didnt ask yout life story, just be objective and stop calling ppl DUPER without any proof.

 

im not calling any1 anything, im just trying to be logical but i cant understand u thats all.

 

Hmm... i'll be honest with you guys.

1) I don't know when and if the Entry Cooldowns will be removed from the instances, i bet they will be and soon.. i mean, they better be ><

2) If they remove the entry cd then the eternal gears shouldn't be put.

3) Newbies can do Taloc's Hollow and get what they need easily. Not to mention about the mentoring system which gets u lots of platinum medals... or the mastarius sets that aren't worth a single coin anymore.

4) Someone told me that Alente said the Droprates are fixed. That means bosses now drops the items they should, i guess. I'll ask Alente myself tomorrow.

5) The barriers around teminon/primum were only annoying, because of lowbies who would run all the way back to the fort and have the shield protect them. When the barriers were fixed, fly pvp died, there's just mauform rangers and bp templars everywhere now.
Hopefully, by disabling the barriers, the amount of the zergers will be reduced.
By crying about this, it's like saying "I'm a zerger who sucks in 1v1/flight pvp", sorry.


We do want to make the server retail-like but there are some things that just can't be the same. On retail, there's lots of players around abyss and u don't have to go to the forts to find some...

EDIT: Just got an answer from Alente. It's about the drops.
If you really want the drops fixed and want to contribute to the community, help yourself by posting here about any missing drops!

 

From the looks of things, the drops may (perhaps) be fixed. Thus, that means that cooldowns are manditory for the instances.

 

come come now peoples... lets play nice

 

Looks like I have drops to go examine now >> Thank god for the //kill command though :x
