Drip feeding classes is a bad idea

@Swan_Goddess oh look i didn’t even have to prove you wrong someone else did. And it’s ironic that you are telling us to play another game when all the top content creators that actually played this game in KR/RU/JP are pretty much unified in saying release the classes. It’s been in Stoopzz’ stream title for about a week now, Saintone said on stream holding back the classes for no reason isn’t going to increase player retention. Zeals talks about it daily. The irony is many of these content creators are the ones doing the partner program with AGS for our region. Ever feel like maybe you’re the one in the wrong? Imagine telling me not to play lmao i pay to play this game do you?

This is quite literally how every mmo in existence has ever released classes. They start with base classes, then slowly release new ones to keep people busy with. With asian ports, literally every single time, they will wait a long time to release the most current classes in their market, so dont base your gameplay on something going on in a completely different market that is way ahead of us in content,

Sure watch other people play and just take in everything they said to be factual and truth and must follow them through and through

Who the fuck are any of you to AGS, Smilegate and Tripod to make demands on how game is produce and at what pace?

Start by finding patience you all clearly lack off first. MMORPG is not for you.

People are extremely rude and pretentious, think they know it all and move their SP playstyle to MMORPG and demands everything from the start to be available and asking nerfs left n right.

agree… waiting a summoner…

The mental gymnastics you do are quite interesting to see. The people with extensive knowledge in this game, making the guides you all use are lying according to you? Who are you again?

The funny thing is just you and other snowflakes are on a crusade against people trying to make sure they release this game as it’s supposed to be. The content creators, the Korean playerbase, the people who played other regions and the ones who just generally know when they are being jerked around have all spoken up. If AGS/SG thought they were in the right they never would have posted that Update two days ago to begin with apologizing. So clearly they understand that we as players do have that right to voice our discontent and adjusted accordingly.

You clearly never played this game before so i can’t even ask you to link a Brelshaza clear in RU to qualify to tell me not to talk on this/play this game but i mean please continue to make a fool of yourself. MMO’s aren’t for me? Please enlighten me as to how you get Hallucination set? What is the percentage rate of honing it? I lack patience? How low is the rate to upgrade quality? Link your +10 gems and +4 tripods. Sit down

and to the above, @massaoso this game has been ported twice already with none of this. Meaning AGS intentionally chose to do things this way. We could have had a faster class release and the content in the game like other regions had launched with but they decided to slowroll it and maximize profits and people called them on their BS. Guess what? RU has caught up to Korea. JP is about a few months out. Everything you are saying is conflicting with the vision that Goldriver has to get global releases. Just pure AGS shilling. Maybe you need to go watch the interview video too

Let’s see how you manage a game - oh wait you can’t and not qualified.

I wouldn’t call that an apology, but since you think you’re always right just because you VPN played KR/RU and believe that you have the absolute say how game will run on global version, you do you I’m not your mom. But one thing for sure is majority western players voicing concerns often comes with mockery, defaming and explicit wordings that is just out of bound and common respect.

It’s already confirmed that Smilegate makes all gameplay decisions. Sorry bubba, but your “smilegate good amazon bad” ape mentality won’t fly anymore.

You do understand that the staggered release of classes IS marketing, the classes are already developed, they just need to be deployed on our version.

The wait would not be as painful if less materials were character bound here that are roster bound in the full version of the game. (KR/RU/JP)

I’m not even at the point this matters yet, and still left wondering how much I will really do with these other classes until the ones I am interested in are available here. ( Like, say, Summoner.)

bro, how long have you worked at AGS? you realize a criticism of thr company is not an indictment of its employees.

why are you so stridently in favor of AGS here? at this point a majority of people commenting on the topic are in favor of speeding up the rollout of classes. even Smilegate stated in their letter to us, that they want to speed up the roll out.

you are the reason we have stupid in game issues like this. people like you settle on crumbs when you deserve the cake.

I still don’t understand why the players now seems to be in a hurry to achieve something FAST. they should learn to take things easy.

I also dont understand why they need so much time to release the other classes. They dont need to create new content since its basically already there…
I want the Painter class but i fear i gonna have to wait a very long time before i can finally play it :cry:

Trash take, say that to everyone who has a legitimate grip with the game and you’ll be queuing for hours to do a raid because your advice to everyone was to quit the game.

I dont like this one aspect of the game… well you should quit the game then. That’s such a lazy and ridiculous answer to any issue.

If someone says “I think this game is trash”, then fair enough but that is not what the OP was saying. Get a clue bro.

No releasing Tier 3 and drip feeding classes was a bad idea. Drip feeding classes keeps people logging in after the hype falloff.

in all of my time playing MMORPGS, Classes release in a Stagger partially for Player Retention, also for Release with the content they were intended for. People wanting classes will always be a thing when they are released elsewhere and not here this is not a bad thing as it gets the Dev/Pub attention like oh they want this lets see if we can work it in before we orginally intended.

My honest advice would be to level all your classes with bound mats and sell your tradable mats, then when your class is released buy them back at the new lower price and youll have more than enough to catch up, plus by the then there will likely be other catch up mechanics in game.

I also do agree with you, I think all classes should of been avaliable day one but just like with skins, amazon needs time to implement the censorship we all know we’re going to get.

i agree with selling the tradeable ones, and you can hold onto the Bound ones instead of selling them for 1 measly silver to transfer to said alt whenever they get around to making them Roster Bound instead.

Hmmm yes and no, new classes, specially the most popular ones such as reaper, arcana, lancemaster and even summoner are in itself a way of bring old players back

I myself am waiting a class, in the meanwhile i know those alts will do me wonders, and i would need alts i actually enjoy playing regardless.

2-3 months for 10 classes do seem absurd for me though, that is pretty much a class a week which makes on the programming side a mess since they will implement every skin for every class for what it seems, not to mention that would be an overload of “content” making people constant reroll and/or try new classes just for the sake of it, do i think they should speed up?yea, 2 every month or so, would even go as far as saying one of those could be community vote and the other chosen by them so we don’t end up getting all mage classes before destroyer for example, to have some sort of a balance.

But in the your old “Main” will just be a high level alt that will make your new alt go even faster than usual, so it’s not a waste of time at all

“New game”. I understand pacing is important and it’s not that simple, it’s definitely doable to release more than 1 class, especially if they are going to release a class literally no one wants and isn’t ready at its current state (destroyer).
