Guardian Deity Transformation

Hi!

I want to ask if anyone knows when Guardian Deity Transformation is going to get fixed? I just reached Army General rank today and I was like "OMG I cant wait to try guardian deity general transformation", and I was really disappointed when Angal told me that its not working yet. So when is this going to get fixed? Thanks!:sideways:

 

It has never worked for any rank, I don't know why you are so dissapointed

 

How are we suppose to know when it'll be fixed? o_o;

Probably later? :lol:

 

Thats exactly why xD its such a badass skill, I was really really really looking forward to get it

Well the question wasnt really directed at common players Ofc you wouldnt know

 

It will be fixed when fortresses get fixed so, probably not any time soon. =p

That sux i want too

 

This most be fixed because insignia ain't working anymore so they really have to fix it so we can use insignia on the normal way again.

Don't assume insignia is for guardian transformation when you never played retail. Insignia is for the guardian deity in the fortress ONLY.

 

I just wish they would put more concern into sieges and guardian transformation. I mean they made a huge deal about fixing the insignias when really they didnt give anyone an unfair advantage because EVERYONE could easily get them and use them, but now we have stuff like guardian transformation, fortress sieges and bugged skills still not working. I know theyre doing what they can, but they should really look into recruiting a few more programmers, so maybe a few more things can get done sooner.

 

lol, you honestly think insignia didn't give advantage to certain classes compared to others? I'll let you think about that one.

 

Guardian's are meant for fortress sieges. It shouldn't be fixed until then.

As enticing as running around with 160k hp and a bunch of leet skills is, it would ruin the game. :lol:

It was meant for fortress sieges where hundreds of players are involved. You will just have to wait.

What I meant was that EVERYONE could use them, and since a lot of classes have high DPS in this game, you dont last a whole lot longer unless your a templar which lacks DPS, so its not like anyone can just pop an insignia, charge into a large group of the opposite faction and just pwn everyone.

 

Well, not entirely. In retail, people can transform whenever they want as long as they have the rank. People normally do it in seige for desperate defense.

 

Development takes time and it will be a while. Theres not exactly a manual for aion server development. No other server has working fortress sieges.

Tons of data has to be sniffed from packets sent back and forth to the client from the official servers so the data can be reversed engineered and tested before work can even be started on developing those features.

Your talking about 1000's of hours worth of work that dev's are doing for free usually in their free time.

Be patient. :smile:

You can't compare retail and gamez. There aren't tons of generals running around on retail with unlimited access to the materials to transform. You also can't get to general in less than a day on retail.

If they enabled it here I see 10 GD's camping the landings constantly. :lol:

Don't forget it only last 10 mins with 1 hr CD =P

 

I know it takes time, and that the devs have lot of other stuff going on, but it's still kind of frustrating when all thats goin on and it seems like their biggest concern was the insignias. It wouldnt hurt to get a cpl more programmers too but they just dont want too. One of my legion mates is really good at programming and offered to help them, but they turned him down so hes making his own private server which is up and running. Theirs not much up on it now but its been progressing well. I know that everything takes time but, I just wish that the devs would put the sieges, guardian transformations, and high ranking abyss skills on a higher priority, and get some more help if necessary.

 

It's a 2hr cooldown according to the database. =p

Still though, pretty much everyone on the server could transform. Chaos. :lol:

When I last checked it was only available for 5 star officers and above, but still though if a lot of ppl are that rank, then things could be pretty hectic.

 

If this was a commercial server and there was a constant cash flow I could see your point, but it's not. It's free and based off if and when people donate.

Decent programmers cost 70k a year. I doubt the server is collecting 140k a year in donations on top of other costs.

Carl has to be careful who he gives access to or he could end up in a situation like Aion Unique where the dev's left and took all the work that didn't belong to them or some pissed of dev could ruin the server. It's a difficult situation to be in and I hope you appreciate that.
