if they release iron man first then pet farm then clown this thread wouldnt exist and im 99% sure
yep just read it says it right their
AGS is now actively lying to the player base lol.
This is more than greed. I am still in shock. We are under a money grab that isn’t even like anything seen in Russia or Korean servers. And they are still expecting to progress through their content. If you look at what everyone else gets it is so much more for so much less. They figure if we are willing to spend $25 on pheons for a set of relic jewelry we are buying in auction house, we are fine spending $55 dollars for a whole character! It is unfortunate, because it drives real players away. Doesn’t change the fact that the bots automate leveling up and spend almost nothing and don’t need the power passes. Don’t fall for the bot argument either. Most botters do not need to use a pass to skip the content. they can just have a computer grind it out with scripts in a day or so. I can’t express how furious I am even seeing this posted. I waited months from destroyer release to get powerpass from arcanist. That was 2 months ago and apparently that isn’t long enough. I don’t expect they will randomly release power passes to us once we have all the classes.
Everyone should be clear that we have only received One Punika Powerpass ever. Even though many other regions have received many, we will likely only receive a fraction. They will at least wait till they bilk as much money from everyone interested first. Such a turn off.
Thank god they are not giving 1 more free pass. i dont wanna see 1 more new class with freaking 1 engraving on fox or bird.
It is really easy to make your way to t3. So just play. Stop begging for free t3 characters.
Really good move, thanks AGS.
Apparently the Roadmap already stated there will be an Ark Pass coming in September (although I can’t find it there)
This should help the future “Scouter mains” to push their characters, I mean it’s at least something. (On top of the paid Powerpass to skip to 1302)
The amount is the same, but in less time until we “catch up”. So, where is the problem?
You have a point, but IMO releasing class every two months isn’t “like every 2 days” either. I’m not gonna saying how you need marketing your game, but as a customer I’m dissapointed.
Power pass/Express pass are excellent tools to both groups, I don’t see why you want annoying your player base and cut in half your newcomers on purpose. Whenever any MMO has a “big update” t they add tools as much as possible to leveling faster, to reach “x” point faster, but you guys are saying that “is too much”
.
So Scouter mains need to buy both the power pass and then the ark pass+ to help them play catch up.
Yet Arcanist (or an older class if you wanted) got a free ride to 1370 and also a bunch of extra resources.
Seems reasonable.
As someone who leveled a Destroyer fresh (no power pass, no knowledge transfer) let me say that the story is a fulfilling content experience that I suggest everyone run at least 5 additional times.
I have used the powerpass for a paladin and manually leveled up the Arcana to a Lopang slave in less than a week.
Not every class will get a free powerpass, and you still get a lot of materials from the free Ark Pass without paying
With the honing buff and saved materials from your roster, reaching T3 should be as easy as taking a walk in the park
Some people can’t dedicate a little bit of their time and resources to swap mains and want everything for free? Really?
I agree, it’s not that big of a deal to level classes fresh, I’ve done it multiple times. The story can be burned through in 14-20 or so hours watching YouTube. It seems it’ll be every other class release by the current rotation.
It’s mostly just the inconsistency in communication and some of the explanations around why this is the case that has people worked up.
May RNGesus bless you when the next class you care about rolls around that you are on the good rotation to save you some time and money.
And this is the exact reason why our version sucks and will fail, while korean version is growing every patch. Congrats, I would love to see your reaction when western lost ark shut down is announced. If you are even playing the game by then, it looks like you don’t care about the game at all.
Are you f2p?
AGS/SG is sexist is the reason. Only male classes have been shafted when it comes to powerpasses, so far Glavier and Arcana have gotten them and an event, but Destroyer and Scouter have not…
In all seriousness this isn’t surprising, with this version it is best to expect to be disappointed, at least that’s something they can deliver on.
I understand everything you’ve stated here, it has come to my knowledge that Japan had a much faster pace of content release (correct if i’m wrong). There are a lot of things going on with the game, it seems pretty dead only some people are on even on NA east. Im sure a lot of people are ready for clown and have been for a while. Alts are up catching up to main characters im assuming. And people are frustrated to see all of these “amazing” updates Korea has been getting (which don’t get me wrong by all means deserved), and it’s taking the fun out of the game seeing them doing it. It is not streamers fault nor content creators and don’t say “just don’t watch them” if theres very little to do with our version if the game. If we didn’t watch them they would not be able to put bread on their table, but allowing them to stream this content before release and also live in our region doesn’t seem like the right move. Just expressing my opinion about the current state of the game.
Great day everyone.
Faster My ass the game is already 5 years late u call that fast?
yep am f2p and am over here just you’re making it harder for me to play the game, you went to kr
to talk about or to get a better idea on what the road map should look like theirs other places where you can look where you don’t want what happen to the destroyer to ever happen again and your solution is ark pass is that it am not here to yell at you but it would help me playing the game better if we had more clarity on things idk its like Schrödinger’s cat
it should be summoner, because they were supposed to be in the initial build
reaper is the one they should have gone with instead of machinist so it can’t be anything other than reaper for the next one!
You keep saying that you want global version to eventually catch up to Korea, but I don’t see how are you ever going to accomplish that. KR is at the point where they have 1460 express event. We didn’t even reach 1415 point yet. By the time we get to that point, they’re going to have 1540 powerpasses, and they’ll have 2 more raids than us.
Why are u constantly forbidding people to have fun in this game? Like what is the drawback of releasing clown in August, releasing hyper-express 1415 with every new class and gradually increase those events?
Like I really don’t care about another 1415 alt, but I’m 100% with people who are fuming because of this, because they are right and you have no clue how to make your player base happy, like Smilegate did it in KR.
I know this is probably Smilegate’s decision, but I really don’t understand why are we constantly getting shittier version of already successful game.
If the content ilvl is too high for average player, don’t delay the content, instead help those players get there. Now you partially succeeded that with events, but not releasing hyper-express event with every class is the most idiotic decision ever made. Obvious money-related thing and every PR excuse is stupid.
I dont disagree with you on the fact reaper should come next, what i meant is, summoner was supposed to be here already, so summoner should have priority. Imagine being a summoner main, seeing summ in the early class release, then almost 1 year after not having that said summoner class in the game. (yes, because if she doesnt come instead of reaper, it will be almost a full year).
