R134

R134 is on Test Server.
Go to test server and cry.
This game is their personal FB game now.
Already dead.

 

its the usual good old fashion release with nothing new.oh i forgot the repair kit (4800 anter)with this you can repair your equipment wherever you are.(but not for free althought you have paid the antermands-you must pay 50% more gold,hahahahahaha)

 

Oh crap...you already opened a thread about the R134 and i went to TS to get some pic and post them in a thread that i almost created, oh well perhaps next time i have better luck!!!

Well, its like....everything is so.....crap i can't find the right words to express myself, politely i mean!!!

Its like i said from the beginning, the dev team doesn't listen nor do they care, they do whatever they want and then comes the CM and tell us "we do listen to you guys".
So i wonder, which member gave this great idea???
Must have been a 6 year old kid...come on its the only explanation or who ever works at the DSO HQ must be under age.

So no time to fix bugs or to implement really good ideas that have been given by us players, but they have time to implement crap that no one likes or asked for.

So do you still believe in the good word of the "CM"???

 

Equipment info windows have been updated. As well as the "?" thats over unidentified gear. The color of the question mark corresponds to the color of the gear underneath.

Gear in your inv and locker that has been ID'd will be displayed in a comparison mode with the gear you have equipped.

Wasnt on for long, but seen nothing that included FB. Trak, could you elaborate on what you meant??

 

i know german.
2. pic is the repair kit (see above)




no different color at the unidentified items, someone already posted it in the german forum

to much graphic designers working at bp

 

Boring patch as always. Only cool thing is the item comparison (but of course, it doesn't work well, it only shows your base stat changes...)

 

Agreed. When this was first hinted at on Twitch, I went to the CM thread and stated how this would be nearly useless to players unless it showed/compared changes to the %-stats on the character sheet. This was, apparently, of no interest to the team. They already had decided the less-than-useful way they would implement this "feature".

Looks like another mostly-useless release.

My answer: not very much at all. I have not had much faith in the abilities or logic of the dev team (CMs, programmers, executives), in general, for quite a long time.

Just a guess, but I think he might mean they are just making less-than-useful changes that they can tout on FB to make it seem like the game is still being developed (when it is almost completely stagnant). That is what I took the statement to mean, but trak may have another idea.

 

So...same bugs as before. Same craps, same boring stuff, same...gosh.
I miss old days when players had nice events. Now we must beg to get somethin else than new/full moon events.
Im sick of map2, Q3 farming. Everyday, everyday same soup and icey one!
And somethin that i noticed. Last year we used to have patch every week. Then they decided that needs some time cuz eary release means more bugs. Now? 2 weeks for a patch and 12345678 hotfixes!!
Why dont you releas a patch per MONTH but a stady, rich and nicer one???
Yes..im childish...my deepest apologiez dear CM!
Cheers? Yeah...

 

Now they are using Twitch and FB as a "info giver" instead of this official forum.
And this game used to be awesome with good looking and design ... now it looks like every other crappy FB flash game.

 

Something big was changed in dso team in last few months and not in a good way obviously. In last twenty days i found that's much more fun without this game, i'm suggesting you guys to try that.

 

Agree with most of the above, the release of repair kit is extraordinarily disappointing and useless. BP How many times people told you this kind of thing is not the way you can get people paying and make them feel worth to pay??

This is definitely not for old player, and I also cannot find a valid sensible reason to buy a kit like that if I were a new player. How hard it is to return to city for repair?

If this is the prelogue for significantly increase of repair cost to like 5-10 golds, it will be another drastic disappointment like you secretly increase the mobs hp, armour, damage, etc in certain areas. DON'T GO TOWARDS THIS. I constructively feedback you this is not the way you make people willing to pay for something.

"Selling new and specially designed costumes, emotes, colors, epic mounts, and pets " is the way to go.

BP please don't get yourself into trouble further.

 

not everything is lost, while looking for someone to turn gold into crap, look no further

 

Haha, the "anti-alchemist" or "anti-philosopher's stone"!

 

I really feel sorry for you guys, honest!!! (P2P class)

Especially the heavy P2P class, spending between 10K and 50K a year is a lot of money and what do they get in return...well just take a look at all the updates from the beginning of this year alone, nothing!!!

What i don't understand is, how can someone pay for so many lousy updates???
Especially when so many players have abandoned this game already!!!

Is it the fame title "Grand Field Marshall"??? heck just write it on a "post it" and glue it on your screen.

Is it the "Hall of Fame"???
If you want improvements ingame...you know what to do!!!

By the way, trakilaki is right about this turning into a Facebook game!!!
More and more under-aged kids are joining this game and this is why the dev team is changing the appearance of the game.

I used to play on all servers, but today i only play at 2 and now I'm seriously thinking of deleting one more...its the only way to really stop playing, by deleting characters+account...well lets see what the future holds!!!

 

I always find it dubious when people claim the active number of users is in decline. I can't really find how that claim can possibly be made without raw objective data; which nobody on this thread can claim to possess. I don't doubt you know a friend or two or six or even ten that have left. I do doubt anyone has a chart showing month-over-month and year-over-year unique accounts in a simple Excel spreadsheet. You won't find it. If anyone (player) has such data, I would be shocked. The most you could hope to mine is a combination of urban area chat log sifting correlated to the the PVP weekly honor points. But that would also have flaws. You would miss pure PVE players. You would also over account for users who have multiple Toons. You would also need a player in every urban spawn point sitting around collecting logs. Anecdoctal isn't going to cut it.

 

Well, if you think that way, its up to you!!!
No one has the info for one good reason...its bad for business, showing the real numbers to public eyes!!!

 

It would be a ton of effort, that is all. At a minimum, you'd need either a dedicated group of friends to decentralize the data collection or a mini server farm. Either way would be a massive time drain. I'm not sure any of us would want to give up play time just to prove out a trend line. It would be a complete pain in the rear end and I'm not sure it would lead to any change in the course of this game. Let's just play while the servers are still operational. None of us will retire in old age playing our Toons. ;-)

 

Hi Tregs .... good to see you posting again. I agree.... no one has the data....except BP. You know they have it and a ton more data....
The servers are not dieing... just the opposite..The influx of new players keep the numbers up.... but you know as well as I that a lot of those wont make 45. This is why I say to find DSO on every MMO rating site and give an appropriate rating. If they see their rating drop and the influx of new players dwindle... then, maybe, just maybe ......they will listen to reason .... but I hold no confidence that even that will sway them from the current path.
As I have said in another post ...
This is the game.....
You either play it....
or you leave.
Simple as that.
Thanks, Doc.
