[Patch Notes] CS 2/21 Server Update

[xena6]

Eh only event even worth anything is the ladder quests. Sorry R2 but yet again fail events. Do you guys not have a creative bone in your bodies? Guess not since you keep recycling the same **** events over and over and over again. Hope you guys realize that many will quit, with the way you guys keep failing with events and only care about cashers i'm sure all your games ppl will stop playing. I want to see some damn creativity, stop thinking about money and freaking show you care about the cs community. There are many things wrong with the site for example LAG improve the servers with some of the damn money you've made. Glitched mobs there are still a freaking ton of them even in tg i'm sick and tired of having to report these glitched mobs just freaking deal with it already. Eh there is so much more i can say but i'm tired of typing and honestly a bit tired of r2 not giving a rats a$$ about the players. You send them a ticket to make a suggestion they tell you to put it in forums for feedback and they don't even read most of it. WHAT'S THE DAMN POINT OF HAVING A SUGGESTION THREAD IF YOUR NOT EVEN GOING TO CONSIDER THE SUGGESTIONS!!!!!

Rant done

What bothers me the most about this update now, is that it essentially feels like R2 is waving their middle fingers in front of our faces, telling us that they're allowed to do whatever they want. I'm glad for the ladder event, I am. That's the only part of the update that I'm all right with.

The rest of it, I can merely shake my head at. The honour badge exchange happened in January, and now it's back again after two weeks? Why rehash an event that wasn't especially that good in the first place? It caters to most older players who have had enough time to gather a crapload of extra badges. New players happen to need those badges to get new gear to get MORE badges. Exclusivity. Love it.

Bound gmuts? As a player who was around for the unlimited gmut exchange events (weren't there two or three of those?) and the limited gmut event exchange (3 a day for a week), I have to ask why the players who never got to utilize the event can now never get it at all? Maybe if the permanent GMUT exchange gave you unbound GMUTs, players could start to overlook the glaringly obvious bad idea it was to make mount extravaganza gmuts bound. Make it like exchanging for maturity stones, NOT like exchanging for pet breeding stones.

Hell, are you going to make the gmut exchange from general krahn bound, too, while you're at it? Not that anyone actually does this because it's a complete waste of badges. 30 bronze, 5 silver, 1 gold badge? What the hell is that?

No wonder people are upset. Cashers work for their cash to buy items. Non-cashers work their ***** off making alts (which takes time and a lot of dedication) just to be able to get the same things casher do. Both work hard for SOMETHING. Stop punishing the non-casher, because believe it or not, they make up the majority of your game's population. And now you're probably going to lose them.

Also, I can't stand the pay to consume event. It happens every time AFTER I've spent crystal. Why not give some warning?

I think the numbers for their active players is about to take a massive nose dive as everyone quickly abandons the Alts they have been lvling to farm Gmuts from mount extravaganza.

Pressure from advertizers to discourage alt use?

If people can lvl a alt to lvl 45 within 3 days thats 26 gmuts ... so 2 alts within 6 days is 52 gmuts in a week, but with this event 2 gmuts a day is only 56gmuts in a month so it is pretty darn stupid perm event i have seen yet..Alot of ppl will definately quit and or not cash at all that is all you want from people if you had any consideration for your players you would listen to them and revoke the event.

it sometimes even takes players a week to make 1 alt lvl 45..so i see that as working for something that is already hard to get and you had to go and make it even more hard to do so.

Phew.....Been a long time coming but R2, I think you've royally given up on the CS base. As a few people who've been around as long as me have said, the gap between casher and a F2P character has only widened. While the prior unlimited exchange events helped close that gap, making the event permanent AND bound only killed it. We're not talking a lil ditch; it's the Grand Canyon as far as I can tell. Not to mention the wings gap that was being made....

Recycling the honor badge event...well I've got bronze badges to burn, but for the newer servers, this ain't helping them. Especially not so close together. God forbid you work on Sengolia to make people have a chance to get more than 1 silver anymore.

Killing alts...phew. You must really hate the F2P base anymore. Early on, I made alts as a joke. Mainly as a skill reference to try and see possible builds to help others with. Now, I enjoy using them. Yeah, they're not all 60+ or scions/eidolons and being put into every event, but if they got to 45, hey, Gmuts for me or for people who I decided to sell it to. Now, well now they're going back on the build mantle, and with fewer new players, the whole point of that is gone :/

Ladder event. Love it. Don't think any players will disagree with it. Soul packs are a godsend, heck the last event helped me get to aura. Like someone said though, it seems to be a mask to try and hide all the mess that the rest of the "events" will make. Been having more fun on Broken Realm than here lately, and these events aren't helping....

Suggestions...listen to your players. Not the overly insane/dramatic ones, not the richest of the rich, but to the genuine ones, the ones who took the time to go on forums, post an idea, ask for feedback, etc, all to try to get a good idea across to you to improve a game that they love. If you're not willing to do that much, then I'll end up watching another game go belly up, possibly worse than the last since this one seemed to have a caring staff for the longest....

They did introduce a mut->gmut permanent event so not all is lost.

what the event called

[neon_bee]

Miscellaneous Change

• Extravaganza rewards for Battle Bear are now bound.

[/QUOTE]

come on this was my only and fastest way for me to get gold from my alts good job R2 good job ! the only good thing on this event now is the perma gmut event but something in that just makes it worse...

[orphen20]

My advise for those who are still complaining about the MUT exchange event: work hard and play longer by level up and gain gold the best way any good player can take. Don't take shortcuts like unprofessional athletes.

[Shocoolatee]

The worst thing they have done, have really put the game impossible for many people ...
I hope this does not increase the selling price of gmut

You forget that most people, since I started playing a year ago, got their mounts because of the GMUT Exchange.
Making it permanent with bound gmuts and only 2 attempts per day, pretty much removed that event entirely lol.
