New steam users forced to pay money in game to get trusted status

Lets take the gifts and trials etc out.

LA is F2P

WOW/FF Pay Wall.

End?

he can’t understand his own words, it’s mindblowing really

Yep, thats the end of it lol we can all agree or disagree but thats a fact.
Idk why they keep going lol, this conversation should have ended with me showing the definition of F2P

majority of the game is free to play, yes. Using the market is considered as playing the game, you can’t use the market if you don’t pay with real money, hence you can’t experience that part of the game for free.

The definition that implies free trial games are free to play… I think not.

Btw i’d like to remember that the issue with the trusted status is that it wasn’t intended to be this way (from what i understood at least), and that most of the player didn’t have to pay to access the market, since that was what the post was suposed to be about :smiley:

You can literally progress without using the AH

Yes and one more thing.

If a player likes the game. The player dont bother about some money anyways.

I played WoW for 18years almost and LA since release.

If i wana waste some money i do it cuz i like the game. In the end its a player decision.

You guys can argue as much as you want, but at the end of the day you can thank Amazon for implementing all these measures that hurt real players in their attempt to stop bots. On top of that, they never change what they did and they legitimately don’t care in the slightest.

you can also hack world of warcraft to play latest expansions for free, I am not talking about how hard it is, but it’s possible. let’s bring more unrealistic scenarios

You can also rob a bank, is life free to play then?

In the end of the day u people dont care about new player crap.

U people just hope to benefit from it. To get something for free cuz new player coming.

Thats already statet so many times.

Greed > Care.

What the hell do you want the players to do? We didn’t force payment for trusted status. Amazon did.

Since i know u dont need to pay anyways to play LA. U can get trusted just buy playing and waiting.

What are we talking in the first place? Thats what i sayd early. This thread is nonsense cuz OP and other people have no patience. And if u like the game just buy a damn Aura for once.

Holy Cheapos.

What nonsense. I don’t need to profit from new players. I’ve spent over $5000 on Lost Ark cosmetics and so much on Genshin Impact people in unfavorable financial situations would probably cry themselves to sleep.

The new player deterrents added by AGS are very serious issues plaguing Lost Ark and will 100% reduce it’s longevity if not addressed. People are not worried because they want to take advantage of new players but because they don’t want the game they invested in to die…

that’s false information, I was talking to amazon live support yesterday and they told me specifically that I have to spend money to get trusted status.

no patience? I am waiting for ~72 days lmao

the whole problem started when I was told in january that my account met all requirements for trusted status, then later they told me to wait more, then wait more, then wait more, and ultimately they told me that I have to spend money

AGS life support is trash they dont even know for what they are working.

:stuck_out_tongue:

at the end of the day I disagree with everyone who says the game is free to play for new players now. new players are told the game is free to play, they start playing, they want to sell some stuff to make gold, boom, can’t do that unless you pay money. 90% of them quit the game.

End of the day not every new player play LA on a completly NEW Steam Acc. Can we agree?

And NEW Player dont even bother about this. Since there are on the level Phase. So until Punika they dont even need any Gold or something.

So this “trusted” u talk cuz its takes so “long” is for “new player” mostly on “new steam acc”.

Since i know some friends that startet then the march patch comes and can use AH etc. But they dont have “new steam acc”.

So its just a Bot prevention for “new steam acc”. And if new player dont like it. But love the game. Buy a damn Aura or a Skin.

But if a player decides for whatever reason na i dont play LA cuz “my new steam acc” play my first ever game “LA”. And cant use some AH for whatever reason. Then its oke too. In the end if the wana know why or what to do. Everyone is free to do to get informations. How to get trusted.

there is almost 1000 replies in main thread and hundreds of threads about trusted status problems, the problem is there was no clear instructions of how to solve that issue, there still isn’t because they are still lying to you that you can get it for free.
