In the end, R2 again said it themselves, their words debunk your claims to the fullest, invalidate your argument completely, end of story. Now that that's been settled, R2 can get back to doing what the same 70%+ of the game that would be affected by this update to do what's right, and omit the Guild Battle portion of the planned update completely. Something they have every ability and authority to do, something they should do if they actually care about keeping their players happy enough to support these servers, events, and the like by shelling-out even more money for the cause. Sorry to anyone who argues against common sense like Knowing has, but this has to be done, and it can be done. And Knowing, before you post again, do yourself a favor and look this stuff up, like I said your argument is no longer with me on this but R2, the guys who said the one line more than once that renders your words null.
Also, to the other guy up above, no one is going to jump servers just to play in the Guild Battles, for several reasons including an unwillingness to leave behind hard work and X amount of money spent on what they left behind on their previous server (a cycle which at the rate things are going would repeat infinitely until they would in fact just quit), it might give R2 a few quick bucks but I give this game another 6 months at best before it goes belly-up from unnecessary indulgences and lack of sensible, feasible fixes.
Crystal Saga has nothing to do with Wartune? You haven't been paying attention well enough then, so I'll explain. Crystal Saga was a game that held extraordinary potential, it started off nice and slow with plenty of events and the like which did not require the purchase or use of Crystals in large amounts for everyone to reap full benefits. Months went by, and R2 began to release event after event which were broken (full of bugs, glitches, and even content that no one really liked), and each time the requirement of Crystals became more abundant, to the point no one could benefit unless they at least dropped $20 on it. Oh, and R2 had the power to pick-and-choose their content. Sound familiar? It should, because when Wartune was released while Crystal Saga was heavily crippled due to poor, business-minded decisions, people flocked to it because it was practically Crystal Saga at its origins, with a new coat of paint. Thanks to the same poor business-minded decisions that led to the crippling of Crystal Saga, now being enacted on Wartune, Server 1 at least has lost several of their top cash players who became fed-up with things of this nature. Oh look, you literally cannot get the Piggy mount during the Valentine's Event, even if you do everything else every day like clockwork, unless you drop $20 on the game and buy at least 13 of the Rose Boxes. Crystal Fragarch weapons were a broken game mechanic, it left things heavily imbalanced in the favor of those who could bulk-purchase required upgrade materials and the like. Talents in Wartune, same deal, especially the Holy Seal. Burn booku bucks to obtain Gold en masse from Recharge Packs, burn the Balens on Lvl2 Bonus EXP Scrolls, Crypt Keys, and the Spirit Covenant, congratulations, you have a level X stun attack that breaks the game entirely. And considering there were plans for an Auction House in the English Wartune, but were scrapped in favor of "other projects" (again, R2's own words, argue with them if you still doubt it).. Yeah, we're done here.
Now that I've finally chiseled some sense and logic into a few too many rock-solid skulls, I'll say it one last time to end this argument once and for all. R2 has the authority and power, and not only can they use it, they should, or else they lose a chunk of their player base too large to recoup from to other games elsewhere that don't treat them like walking wallets. I'll be glad to debate good business sense and the like with R2 as well, they should bring a pen and notepad to the discussion as I stand to teach them a few things vital to their company's survival, or they can choose to ignore me and when profit margins and quarterly earnings take an orbital nose-dive I'll simply shake my head and chalk up another notch for another game corporation that could have had the potential to be saved and make profits doing things the right way.. I point to Neverland Online, same exact type of scenario almost to-the-letter as what's occurring with R2 and all of their games now, and rest my case.
