Starting to loose trust in the whole western release project

You are literally a frog in a well if you think you will like this game long term if you don’t like the current endgame that will inevitably happen.

Lost Ark is all about legion raid enjoyment long term.
These are hardcore raids that will only get harder and players WILL see this with vykas. And I suspect players will quit with vykas because the learning curve only gets harder.

After that it’s just raid after raid for awhile for that fun hardcore raiding experience with some new guardian and events thrown in for the casuals.

After that it’s yoz jars and ester weapons for the whales while we wait for new content like in KR. I mean that’s lost ark…so play other games and don’t overthink it, that’s Lost Ark future.

Decent chance the AGS release wont make it past the 2nd quarter since those reports to smilegate have to be unbelievably awful and wouldnt be surprised if that is behind the content delays

i already left west servers.low and low popularity.in the end u will be alone in ghost tawns :smiley: may be some bots will run around and sell his golds :smiley:

I see many posters in these forums forget all of the good that’s been done over and over again.

You might need to jog your memories.

  1. LOA is translated over multiple languages for this version, this is no small feat.

  2. LOA obtained additional publishing rights for more countries after obtaining feedback

  3. pets in NA are NOT p2w

  4. cosmetics still remain (untouched) despite all the fearmongering and I’m willing to bet that summer will be no different.

  5. bots ARE being focused on regardless of speed its being done.

  6. QOL updates have been sped up and driven to be included sooner.

  7. DX 11 on release (so many people wanted this)

  8. Inclusion of T3 on release giving NA/EU the MOST complete launch in history of LOA comparing to other regions.

  9. Communication HAS increased comparing it to early days, sure for some y’all it ain’t perfect but for the patient majority it’s been good.

  10. Glaiver release, this was a hot request from the community. AGS and SGR listened.

  11. Honing material events for the 1370 fiasco, they added and listened and tuned according to community progression.

  12. Korean Voice Pack - This was a HOT request and they came through.

  13. Brought the false ban attention to support and made sure that there was a section to which would look into bans much closer. They delivered.

There are plenty more.

Y’all need to be more greatful for the hard work that AGS, SGR and the CM team bring through. Seriously so many ungreatful man children in here.

Get a grip.

People should complain about what they want to complain instead of having rose colored glasses on. They said “feedback” is important and they want to hear it.

Ags? Is people really this dumb … Smilegate are releasing skins and artist in other regions is why now we are on the side.

Rose colored?

I literally listed out ACTIONED items which are reflective of hard work, feedback taken and are correctly executed.

Nothing rose colored about that.

The version we have is by no means perfect, no client is. But to discount all the good things that have been done to focus on slightly delayed content?

The content they roll out has few to no issues. The Valtan release and all it’s QOL came out mostly flawless.

I’ll take delays and flawless launches for content releases vs earlier deployed and buggy instances.

How about these people stop looking at the world through their crap covered windows.

It’s more SGs fault than AGS. SG gives zero fucks about any region besides KR.

wrong, smilegate wanted to have the global release up to date with KR within a few patches however AGS didnt want that, not sure if you have forgotten but AGS intentionally held back content until more players reached a higher item level
AGS had the opportunity to release legion, thunderwings, south vern chaos dungeons when they released south vern but they intentionally held it back to please casual players that have not put in the time to reach ivl 1415
they announced they were holding back this content the day of the patch after announcing an hour before that south vern wasnt being released and maintenance was delayed

Your losing trust in a company that pushed 2 years of content out in 3 months? No the issue here is that were getting people who want honing buffs, thinking it’ll be the same as Korea. So they stop progressing. They stop progressing and new legion raids come out then they complain they can’t do it because they paused progression and was selling materials. Than you have the issue of needing time to progress to higher tiers of legion raids through grinding. But because people want the content which should have a spot gap of 3-6 months to progress comfortably. People again complain even more that they want to catch up to Korea’s patch. Where nearly more than what 70% isn’t close to valtan or Hardmode Valtan. The issue isn’t the companies the issue is the player base wanting to catch up to the main game way to quickly. They have 3 years on us, but you want the end game now. WIthout playing anything at all and just rushing content. That isn’t even enjoyable. I look at most of my friends, they don’t even know the story, shot they don’t even know some of the names of the major city hubs or continents. They refer to valtan as the blue cow thing, and argos as the white goat that sits like it need to poop. We all need to relax a little bit, your all burning out and probably haven’t even immersed your self in the MMO. " BUT IM ALREADY VYKAS READY" no one cares, stop pressing others to where you want to be. Most people want to get to Valtan first, maybe don’t even release vykas and help the majority of people get more materials through more events. Hold off on patchs and lets’s get some events.

SG decides what gets released and when it gets released. They are sending the “patches” to AGS to localize. AGS does not decide the contents of the patch.

wrong again, publishers have complete authority over patches implementation and their release scedule developers need approval from publishers before pushing any updates they also have to have any changes made that are requested by said publisher
Look into how anything has been published in the past 600 years everything passes from writer to publisher with publishers requesting changes constantly

pov u have nothing to do in your life except sitting on front of the pc… the whole thread
i know u all gona die tomorrow because the patch isnt comming armageddon. we all r lost we have to wait another weak… the world is on fire… meanwhile people dying in wars…

I want you to correct you, you do not know the specifics of the contract betweeen this publisher and it’s developer and it’s highly confidential. This is not a structure lead the same way everytime.

dont need to know the specifics dummy every contract ever made includes all changes subject to final approval

Also, (because I’m going to ignore what you just said that’s pretty obvious), Gold river was the one that mentioned that wanted classes every 2 months BEFORE the game launched… so I see not reason of they being hold back to catch up. You’re just making up stuff I’m afraid.

Yeah Kova, all those accomplishments are nice, but it doesn’t devalue the complaints that are being made. Your argument is a fucking logical fallacy (red herring) and doesn’t actually address the god damn complaints people are making.

Your point is to distract from the presented issues, so yeah, rose fucking colored glasses.

gold river also said he wanted the global launch to be caught up to other regions within a few patches well guess what that hasnt happened because amazon chose to delay legion, south vern chaos, thunderwings, sv chaos gate for muiltiple weeks after releasing south vern despite they were planning to release them all at the same time and they were literally already in the game and just disabled server sided

Post screenshot or quote, or I’m calling bullshit.
