Hello friends,
after reading various posts, especially this one http://forum.r2games.com/showthread....or-not-to-save
and browsing also to links inside it, I would like to discuss some tactics we could use together to communicate with R2Games.
I am sure no one wants to see this game end soon and sure no one wants to leave invested money in few months of playing.
Some of us also know the story of the game that Wartune stays on (World of Lordcraft) and therefore we know where this game will go if we, players will not do something from history.
I have to add that I have spent around 100 USD on this game which is not much in US, but its a TERRIBLE money here in Czech Republic. And all I have is that I am still mere average player even if I sometimes play more than 14 hours a day.
All I have is socketed set, good horse and double point system. Thats really not much for 100 USD!! I used to play many on-line games and always had full vault of extremely useful things for 10 USD. Here I have almost nothing unless I pay thousands of USD...
Let me to conclude my idea and lets see if you will agree. If yes, I will file a ticket with link on this post and lets see how it will work.
If nothing changes, there is no reason why to continue playing, but thats not my style. I do not want to give up and trash my money, I want to have this game as WE need, not the business managers.
So the issue is:
1) The game seems to be focusing only for gathering money from extreme payers and many experienced people quit feeling depressed.
- balens must be here only to have the life easier. Definitely not help strongest people being even more stronger. Why wings should be only for balens??
- prices of things must go down. The only sensible thing now is the crypt key. For 75 balens you get helluva lot of great stuff and double experience.
- I would pay 185 balens only for permanent socketing rod. If it is only for one use, then the price must go down at least 50%
- MAJORITY things must be also obtained for vouchers or some really hard playing. The only thing of this type is horse for 6k crypt keys. Why should be wings and good horses obtainable only for balens??
- why the hell legendary shards were obtainable for consuming thousands balens???
- how the hell I can make my first lvl 50 legendary trinket if nightmare dungeon is so difficult that I will be able to do it at level 70? And on level 70 I will need lvl 60 legendary trinket which I can get at level 85?? Is not that crazy?
- why the bigger hell one free astral slot must be for 395 balens?? I want to pay for things affecting my battle rating, definitely not for service features
- rare things must really be rare. Its not acceptable that I have some "extremely rare" item and see 100 players a day also getting it. In this case stop calling it rare :-)
- covenant for 1200 ballens? thats a bad joke. Even if it lasts a month, 200 balens is enough.
2) Players quit playing.
To stop this previous point must be fixed first.
- servers must be merged as soon as possible. I know western games have a lot of servers but its not for fun R2Guys, you know? Its because previous servers were full :-)
- the game still has some minor bugs which really annoy players. Like single player arena, where opponents have 2 turns per 1 player's turn. Like in world boss battles where the battle rhytm is spoiled
- the events must be long enough to gather the stuff they are made for. Its not possible to have alpaca for 30 shards if event can give me only 15. I know, I should have used alchemy, but guys :-D, in this case I would like to buy alpaca directly for balens ;-)
- finally the paying players must have feeling their investments are worth of money. The issue is described above.
The result of current situation is that many players left not to be bored, but to be depressed. Paying players like me refused to buy balens anymore, just are maintaining their VIP levels. Just compare:
a) player will spend 100 USD and quit after a month
b) player will spend 20 USD per month for the whole life of the game
c) player will spend thousands of USD but only once and additionally such a player is very, very rare exception. I know only one player to be such person and he is not from our server.
What income will turn to be the most earning one? I am afraid that b is correct.
I am sure we all want to play the game for few years, not only months and we all would like to enjoy great battles. Nobody here wants to be stomped just because he/she did not turned whole salary into balens.
Personally after paying lot money for me, I do not want to be hunted pray anymore and seek your opinion.
Feel free to write anything you want here and Lets make our life happier.
Of course, some good hints how to reach heavy casher if having low resources are welcomed here too.
Many thanks,
