    Can you put tradingbsystem between characters on the same acc.I know you dont want to because probably people will sent radient,scared stones from lvl 50 characters to lvl 10 characters,but why you dont put limitation which will only allow us to sent items between characters on the sam lvl..A lot of us are nos happy with the class that are curently playing with,and starting with a new class just isnt worth of it because we alred invested too much time and money in current class,and this would help us a lot

    Oh, not this crap again. Fortunately the CMs have said it again and again and again that they will not bring trading to the game. Lets hope they actually stick with this decision.

    Since the release 164 , my chars lvl 50 ( all quests finished too ) can't play , and I think you're right :(
    But my others chars ( oh oh less than 45 lvl ) can play very nice with great offers lol !
    ONLY MONEY NOW .


    So many events lost cause YOUR bug BP , I spent a lot of time in this game and you thank me like this !

    This bug will not be fixed ,cause they don't know how to program , or they're doing it to prevent some chars to play .

    Interesting how tweaks are one of the meanest players in game, they find every opportunity to insult players in game, though I was not insulted one, am seeing a lot of that since I started a new char .. It looks really ugly. Something needs to be done about that asap.

    I think the reason they do it it's couse they think they are the best couse the tweaked there toons so much, maybe reduce how much they can upgrade item, eg +5 levels max of char level and gems max polished up to 40 level. No one needs radiant, flawless ect gems on 1-40 level at all, it's not that hard, it's not needed.

    My best friend (real friend) quit playing 'couse he got insulted so many times by them, let that be a reminder they are recking the game form every angle.

    Hi i have some questions :)
    - Will you add more parrarel worlds in the future ? Areas with main bosses (dragon caves - harold, hjargrimur - sigrismar, atlantis - gorga) could be great parrarel worlds.
    - Q5 and Q6 dont have a set as the first 4 ones, will they get a set additionaly ? (i really like the idea of the small (2 items) parrarrel worlds sets)
    - Will you add more new unique items to Gnob and Emilia ?
    - When will you add the cursor highlight option promised last year ?

    Hey there community of awesomeness,

    here we go today with some extra answers from this humble servant of yours.


    No, c´mon, the idea is to make the Dragan event more repeteable, really.
    Like, 3-4 times per year.

    Hey there Rhysingstar,

    while I understand the feeling behind dropping the mic and walking off the stage, I'll suggest you not to do it. You give honest feedback. We'll be monitoring very closely what you guys have to say after the 2 weeks of the event, when everyone will be in a better position to say how rewarding the event was, considering effort and final result of equipment obtained. Across all forums and media.

    I know it sounds cliché. But we'll be doing this nevertheless.
    Turning this event into a more repeatable thing also means we could make more adjustments to the future versions of it.

    Hey there,

    as I said, extra tracking is being put with rel167. Devs have a pretty clear theory about this and that extra tracking may prove it. Which we totally want because we wanna get rid of this brown screen of death as soon as possible. Merci beaucoup pour ta patience.


    Hey there,

    me being crazy is a subjective opinion. In general terms, I'd say my crazyness levels are quite alright.
    On another topic, I personally do not think the stats of an arrow are going to correct the lack of balancing that is currently affecting PvE rangers. Which is anyway already on the designers' plates. This issue is way bigger and it should be tackled that way.


    Hey there,

    sorry if I could not answer your question as you asked first. Here we go again.

    Lucky Spheres is obviously a monetized feature within our game at the disposal of those players who would like to try their luck and see if they can get what they are looking for. You actually do not get "free" Draken, in a way, you are still paying for them. Or, as a result of investing X quantity of Andermant, you can potentially end up with some. I'm pretty sure a lot of players go actually for the item in question rather than the Draken.

    Draken as drop has been increased for this Dragan event, btw, so hopefully you can stack up your reserves for the next Limited Offers event.


    Hey there Taketh,

    We knew that Gnob was gonna offer the Dragan set a while before - but not too long anyway. In any case, the changing mechanism applied to Gnob (him staying at Kingshill, the Lucky Spheres and Limited Offers) came way before. Since the pricing for the old Dragan set was not yet clear (and has been lowered recently, showing that other changes happen last-minute, as you anyway know), we decided to not communicate this until it was clear that a more realistic pricing approach was gonna happen.


    Hey there,

    Things seem incredibly easy in Trakilaki's world. Most of the times anyway.
    The shop rework was designed by one designer and pretty much implemented by a developer, who wrote the code. That was their project within our roadmap.

    Now, the brown screen issue was assigned to another programmer, who has been studying it since rel164 and has added the extra tracking for rel167 (invisible to players' eyes, but there) - he will follow up on that in the upcoming days and keep on fixing it. That's his project within the roadmap.

    The one giving priorities is the producer, not the developer. The producer's job is to ensure that the game functions, that it's stable and, of course, that the game produces the money required to keep it alive and working for all parts involved (the developers and the communities). And it's not as if we are not doing anything for the brown screen issue.


    No, not happening at the moment. Sorry ^^


    Hey there,

    Ikr, these awful people... We always encourage people to send screenies to the Customer Support team. They do deal with insults and blatant disrespectful comments right on the spot. As for the other comments, we do not have updates concerning any cap or limitations.


    Hey there mister,

    + More PW in the future: I'd love to see this and I'm sure more people within the team. One of the ongoing ideas that we have is to really expand the endgame experiences for everyone so this would totally be a win. But as it is of now, I cannot tell you 120%: "yes, we are doing that right now".
    + More PW sets: yes, definitely. There'll be sets for those bosses. As of when... In the near future, me hopes.
    + New uniques for Gnob and Emilia: affirmative (though we wanna tackle other issues first)
    + Cursor highlighted option: we have a design BUT we saw in the community survey that a lot of people were giving priorities to other features firsts. So we are committing to those and the cursor overhaul remains in the backlog as of now.

    ----------------------------------------

    Oki doki, if I have left something unanswered, as always, shoot it again and I'll do my best to reply.
    On the other hand, we have a new DEV DIARIES episode so please, give it a peek. Next one we are preparing will be a Q&A with Production - for this we will open a question thread soon!

    Also, we are sync-ing the rel167 tomorrow, starting at 11:00 am CEST (UTC+2).

    And last but not least, please be reminded that the Dragan event times have changed (same day, but starts a tad later)

    General Timetable:

    Servers: Heredur, Werian, Grimmag and Balor
    Start: June 16th, 5:00 pm CEST (UTC+2)
    End: June 30th, 5:00 pm CEST (UTC+2)

    I don't sent every single insult, if I did you would have very long email w/ 100's of screenshots. Some insult others, some me.

    I don't insult you... I point out that you have no idea what you are talking about and provide proof and then you come whine in the CM thread that people are mean to you on the internet... Do you want me to quote you when you have been a jerk to other players or calling people liars without proof? I could always embarrass you here too if you'd like.

    Peace, you 2 :p I don't think @LudiGrozd was talking about you on particular, but about in-game twinks, who think they are superior to others because they block their exp.

    I don't know the content of all your discussions though, maybe you had an in-game argument that quickly went off the limits. But please don't start a war here ^^ if the two of you know you haven't done anything bad, you don't have to worry ;)

    Nah, no thanks.

    The solution is rather simple though. He simply has to acknowledge that he doesn't know everything and admit that he was wrong. Problem is that he is to proud to do so.

    And before he comes back and says something stupid about me not admitting when I'm wrong, I've done it more than once in the past
    , but I can't name one time he has. He just disappears for a couple days after I make a fool of him until he comes back and says something else that he can't support with evidence.

    Hey there peeps,

    please, do not convert this space in a 1-to-1 arena of sorts. It's not the point nor the intention of this space.
    Thanks!


    Hey there,

    of course I do understand that. What I meant is that those who get reported, we treat them accordingly. Of course we cannot deal one by one with all the episodes of misbehavior or chat abuse that happen on a daily basis across all servers. That's the bread and water for a lot of online communities, unfortunately. But I can vouch for the prompt answer of the Support team whenever those proofs arrive to our plates.

    Also, wanted to tell you guys that we are aware of the loading times that some of you are experiencing after rel167.
    We have already escalated this to the team.

    Regards,
    Haruki

    This map loading issue is gonna kill the Dragan event.
    Pretty sure it will be a week's time if you promise to fix it at the *earliest*
    That will leave us with One Whole week of event to craft the Rageful sets with the generous drop rate.


    This is gonna be the best Dragan event YAAY!!

    How about admitting the devs F'ed up by ignoring feedback from Trakilaki and I (again) and do a roll back and fix this crap before putting it on live server?

    looks to me that devs don't understand how to programme and their tracking code locks the thread for an age
     
  17. Hello,

    And now ? I'm very happy of R167, cause now, all have long load-time and they can see how "no-fun" it is to wait front of his computer on a brown screens during looooooong time :D

    Come on guys, you need 30s every changing maps, for my part I waited more than 3 hours and brown screen still there, you are lucky to don't have this, for now ;)

    Dear Haruki

    I am very glad to read that this ranger "problem" is already recognized from your team and under your attention. In the german creative corner a few players (diverent classes) trying to think about groupskills that could be able to bring the ranger back to the groupsplay in the PVE. Unfortunatly the lobby of rangers is already very small and very much gamer stoped already with this Char.
    So my hope is that you can be our voice ;o)

    Kind regards

    this is very frustrating and big step backwards. a rollback is warranted in this situation.
