NA/EU LA version is designed to waste time

So you believe that they intentionally coded in 3 bugs (Orhea Enterance, Disconnects, Loading screen freezing) with the goal of wasting your time?

You don’t think maybe it’s just because this UE3 game cut to pieces and resold to NA while also connected to EAC might just be the reason it runs like molasses going uphill and is probably one sneeze away from coming apart at the seams?

The other 2 i agree, they are annoying AF and do waste my time.

So you telling me Devs who can make game like LA can’t fix Oreha entrance bug for last 8 months? OMG people like you exist but hope you get your head sorted and go to other post where you decide who will flare on guardians.

I’ll take they just don’t really care over your conspiracy theory of it’s intentionally done with the purpose of driving you mad.

You think SG dev’s are hard at work trying to fix an Oreha load-in bug?

Yes, that is that devs job to fix bugs and make new content, or are you defending that Oreha bug is fine and don’t need fix? what you talking man? It is 8 months and offcoarse they are intentionally ignoring that bug in our version which implies they intentionally wasting out time.

This is where the SG dev’s attention is. Not some 2+ year old dungeon or slow loading mostly because of EAC. Don’t get me wrong man I think it’s horrible as well, but we are way down the priority list here.

That’s why we need to address these issues because we don’t play in KR and never will and every new or even existing player do Oreha/Clown every week on 6plus char.

This one might be on your side (not saying necessarily your fault) but could be compatibility or something specific to you and a few others because I have not experienced this as of yet and do not know anyone who has. I understand that most people don’t have expensive pc’s and maybe there are optimization things they could do to cater more toward this demographic but at the same time it would feel a bit like complaining to the game company about bad ping while paying for a 1mb internet service.

I have 3080ti with 64gb ram and fastest ssd u can buy rn and i have 200mbps ethernet connection, nothing wrong from my part for sure and you might not even play the game that much to encounter these issues, freeze loading screen is an issue for many players and you encounter that 2 or 3 times a week and i play like 60 hours each week, maybe people need to keep their opinions to themselves when they don’t even play game.

sorry buddy but you’re wrong, their attention is developing a new ip, yes they may have some content devs left for lost ark, but the real development teams are working elsewhere, that’s why these bugs are never fixed.

Is it Lost Ark 2 the quest for more Arks?

Oh well that still doesn’t point them towards an Oreha bug :stuck_out_tongue:

So Priority New IP > KR Season 2 Patch > Absolutely anything but NA/EU > NA/EU.

Lost Ark 2: The Search for more Money

this wasnt a contest of who’s played longer… this was a reference sample size to see if my playtime was long enough to encounter certain issues that happen consistently. Is 3000 not big enough to you for an issue that supposedly happens more than twice a week? Also my specs are worse I have a 3070ti with 16ram and play from hawaii internet… so i would be more likely to encounter these if anything

probably a new mobile game

@Redrowen it’s because AGS wasted SG time in developing stuff like the deactivated captcha system, the una gold coins that was reverted, the auction house purchase timer, the thronespire changes, the 1 or 2 months fix for the powerpasses, the 3 day hold for the purchases, all efforts to prevent fraud while not fixing bugs in the game.

Yeah releasing without considering the fact that there is zero barrier to entry and your game is designed to be extremely bot friendly was probably the real mistake here.

Everything has been focused on trying to handle Bot/RMT and far less on other non-game breaking issues.

there are bots in KR and they ban them monthly and release reports of it, yet in KR devs don’t waste their time in developing measures against bots since they have social security number tied to your account, so numbers are not that huge, about 20k in one month. But in the west, releasing it on steam with no barrier like you mentioned and then waste time and resources of devs on developing anti fraud stuff that don’t even work but hinder the player experience.

Yeah it’s a pointless fight. There’s hundreds of thousands of throw away accounts ready to release at any time you do a bot wave ban. I wouldn’t be surprised if the bot runners have the pattern down to where the the bots already moved any gold and thrown away with a new replacement already in place before the ban even hits.

Bots do affect casuals and whales the most, not f2p that much

They helped them with cheap mats, fish, grudge books, collectibles

However, the bad guys are the ones who placed a 238 RC ratio in the shop and shipped the gold nerfed version on launch, those affected casuals and f2p the most.

Whatever they did was only countering fraud, that’s all they care about, not the player experience nor the economy, they don’t care.

Maybe, if they don’t have it that expensive, people wouldn’t resort to RMT that much, and bots won’t be here in the masses.

Yes, I would take NAE as the most healthy economy at 1800/95. Bots accelerated the inflation, but casuals were already screwed hard by the publisher long ago. Number of new players is a big proof of that.
