I think the reason for this is that it’s not a new game. We know what’s coming, or should be coming. What we needed from AGS was localisation (which hasn’t been great, lots of computer translation with zero checking, changing of names with no explanation etc) and server hosting. The latter as an EUC player has been hell.
Personally I expected the existing content to be chopped into easily pushed chunks per month. No song and dance just a steady flow of old content over six months to bring us up to date.
What I’ve got is old content packaged with little to no thought on how it would be consumed. Content pushed with old issues from KR that should have never made it to our version. No communication and a fair amount of confusion.
No where did I say I didn’t agree with you. Working in the game industry, I know what happpens behind the scenes and a month honestly aint shit. People need to chill out.
Tbf to show a different side, Asmon (yes I’m a streamer lurker) watched a video from a KR user today that said in their region, on ilvl locked content, people are elitist about who they take based on engravings, and that perhaps smilegate didn’t include them initially in order to give people time with the engraving system and to acquire them.
This does make sense as engravings prices are pretty p2w already without ilvl locked content. And if people felt they “needed” the engravings then it could cause problems, but leaving that content out has caused the current issue haha.
I think the naruni racing event was a step in the right direction, I enjoyed the extra materials for my alts. However my main is sat at 1340 and without honing changes I just don’t have the will power to fight to 1370, just to jump the hurdle to 1385 with easier rates again.
Injecting honing materials are a good change, but I would be extremely careful about “injecting gold” into the game even if it’s just mid-endgame because this has caused issues in the past both for this server and other servers. That being said, I have no idea what specifically the team is attempting to do.
Regarding “The New Animal Skin Selection Chest”, I’m wondering if you plan to release more for the new classes or we have to keep it till the release of the new classes ?
One other change that was supposed to be in the hotfix was the Monthly/Weekly +% blue crystals not being added, I tried the weekly package (2000 +10% bonus) after the patch and still didn’t receive the bonus, so I’m short 460 crystals now, I think.
No word about honing chances. Maybe a little more materials weekly but thats all, why you even add more tokens for race event everyone bought all stuff at day 2, there is so little materials its shame, like 150 destruction stones per week, its like nothing not even for one upgrade. I am not happy at all.
Iam tired that whole game is build arround shop and p2w. Even the Mari shop has majority of items at higher prices then on market aka noob trap.
