Free Server

[R23718111]

Not sure if someone's asked about this yet but I think we should have a few servers every now and then that are for free players only? Maybe make vouchers the main source of buying things from the shop on the free server instead of balens? A free server every 50 servers or something? Just an idea.
¬ No more balens, makes shoppers always stronger and it gets annoying sometimes.

I'm on the free camp. The game isn't advertised at all as P2W anywhere on any site. I'm not QQ'ing about it being P2W either, but it is false advertisement which is a type of scam.

You're getting your game structures mixed up:

P2P and F2P *can* have a P2W element, but a P2W element doesn't change their inherent nature as either P2P or F2P. It just creates sub-categories of P2P and F2P.

Not false advertising, anymore than acai juice only contains enough acai for them to legally be able to market it as such. Same here. It may have a *very* heavy P2W aspect, but it's F2P enough to be marketed as such.

a free server without cash items .So that the players would have to work to be strong and not take the easy way

Well why should a free server even have balens? or wings? or items? Remove the balens in whole there, keep VIP(cause even if free, R2 needs maintence cost paid).

I don't understand when people say "free server" they still want to be able to buy "cash items", but of course for free!

Rather than a free server, I would love to see a shopless server, without any balens. Would level the playing field, and people can pay for vip for supporting

Eventually this game will end up free with spam adverts running somewhere along the page as more and more people find out how truly crappy the platform owners are. As is when you see a sponsored post on facebook 80% of the comments are about how much it sucks and don't play this game.

First let me say I agree with you, and realize it will never happen. But a very good argument for a free server is simply the game is advertized as free, which is basically a scam. You *can* play 100% for free but with so much P2W its basically impossible and no fun at all. I'm just saying the best argument for a free server is the games advertisement itself.

What's the scam about it? It is a free game 100% free. They never stated "free to be the best". So there is no scam and you should know by now all these free to play games have some sort of "unfairness' to it most of the time free to play games are p2w games. That's why it's free to play. They make there money off the cash shops in the game. So no this isn't a scam and you can't claim it is a scam. You are getting what you were told to get. A 100% free game to play. They don't force you to buy anything in the game at all.

The game is also advertised as "Adults Only" and for "Male Gamers Only" so let's not use this game's advertising as a good argument for anything.

Those are just a few random ads. Every platform adverts the game as free when its not exactly true.

Again explain to me why people would still even want to go to a p2w server if they can get everything for free in a free server? This game will shut down if they made any free servers bc everyone will just get things for free.

Tell me this if they make a free server with everything available in vouchers. Then why the hell would anyone want to play in a p2w server? I know if i can get everything free with vouchers in a free server ill be joining that in a heartbeat. Free vip, free crypt keys and rods, free wb buffs, free clothing, free everything. There no point in having a p2w servers if there going be free servers to play on. Then after everyone flocks over there R2 won't make any money thus shut down. Sorry but this is a dumb suggestion. Need to think about things like this.

1 reason i can think of for people choosing balen servers is that a person can have an advantage if he/she is willing to pay more than everyone else. One can't take shortcut like that in a free server. With that being said, I agree with what others have said about people rushing to the free server so no money for R2, and we all know how R2 love money.

would be nice but unfortunately will never happen

excessive pay to win really takes away from the essence of any sort of competitive gaming

[Arlad]

Maybe they think they deserve free server coz they can't afford the balen items?

If a non-balen/non-cash server would be created, I would definitely go there and willingly leave my current toon if I can play free on this server. My friends would definitely do the same, coz it will be unfair if others can play free and I cannot? So be ready to migrate to this free server if this request will be granted.

This is exactly the reason why it will never be exist.

I talked about it like 3 month ago.

All I got was flame, bash, and troll.




My suggestion was make the server non-balen. (or locked balen - 10 voucher = 1 balen, etc)

Where players can't purchase balens on that server.
Either removed the Shops or make them buyable with locked balen only.
And you can't buy vouchers, lol.

This would make the server disadvantage in cross-server pvp, however the entire server only would be balanced.



most ppls here just like to be negative about things, no one take suggestions seriously, R2 rarely even look at this sub-forum.
