MA vs. Veterans

[Tree-doctor]

I continue to depo… but I will stop soon. I used to depo a lot per month, nothing to compare with my actual erratic deposits. Then I stopped playing for a wile at VU10 because the contrast was too high. The game under CE2 have maybe better graphics but sux balls big time compared to our ancient quickness/look; let say that it was more playable before, at least for me. The proportions are also biased. Maps are too fucking gigantic (can be a feature designed for increasing the use of mindforce transportation thus sweat price, but nope).

Mobs regen. and HP are also a sad joke. In the past, when u was bored playing big game or not enough money to play big game (such as ogglo/aurli runs with not that so eco gear and alone) I used to go at Camp phoenix (who was a fucking great place for sweating and teaming up for feff & corn hunt) to blow away feffs naked with a quick gun.

Now, feffs have some immense HPs, compared to old time, and mining in feff zone without firepower is close to be impossible now, since I mine naked with only an amped MKII. Same for trox. Hopefully, Atrax stay the same …

Well, to be honest, we, PE/EU players, underwent the worst nerfs ever registred in the MMOG world. HP/REGEN/AMP/BEAUTY/HOUSING/STORYLINE/HANGAR/BEACONS/TAMING/LANDGRAB/WINDOWBUG/SHOPS… and many many more.

Beacons was sometime a loss (sometime often ^^) but was fun team hunt and we were all high thinking we have the possibility to loot “sentinel”, “APPG1”, “tiger” …

Dozen of players love it. It was a sort of “eco” break in the hardcore gaming and totally in accordance with the storyline. It was useful !

So, please Mr Timkrans, pity us and reintroduce this feature.

Also I have an off topic question : Were is gone Island Girl Statue and memorial ??? WTF Why the hell ND removed her from CALYPSO ??? IMHO she belong to Calypso and shes a real part of the history of this planet. But now its just a sad place.

Would the reintroduction of the old systems really make you stay?

I don’t think so.

MA/SEE/FPC/ERT want to change the whole game system. They do it on purpose. And I think they really don’t care if we deposit a bit here and there. They should have stockpiled enough $ to implement their changes without the players need. And if not they jsut resell themself to themselfs. The constant renaming has no other reason tehn raising capital. It won’t work forever, but at elast for some time…

Yeah i was talking with a friend about that a few days ago, why the hell did that get removed from Calypso?
I dont fuckin understand anything..
back to topic, U SEE MA/FPS/SEE or… WE care about EU and u should care about us participants as much as we do deserve.

Dont rely on new players to stay either,

We in our Soc has been chewing thru a large amount of Newcomers last months ,
The retention rate is super low . they skill a bit, lose faith and never logg again .

We tried to do opalo team hunts in soc for the new ones but this always ends in a total loss for them ,

Seems its a hopeless idea to bring new player in to the game , Sadly Ive almost stopped wasting my time on new ones ,

Dont know who this game is aiming at atm , new or old all seems frustrated

other thing is with so meany vets moaning about the state of the game … well if i had just joined i’d GTFO after reading what some people post here.

Hoo also, those stupids grinding missions are USELESS !

They bring nothing to the middle players, nothing to the storyline. Grinding 15000 argaonaut isn’t an achievement … Its the symbol of the absolute moroness, in other words >> World of Warcraft.

So don’t bring back beacons in a sort of mission (cause we are already a LOT who don’t give a fuck about it). Bring back the whole system >> Mining >> strange signal >> beacon >> beacon spaceship.

[system]

For me it looks like MA are focussed on monetising (For them) much more than they are on where the money is going to come from long term. Short term plans like this will drive potential for long term customers down.

[BigBertha]

I know a lots of games, ok its a fee every month but then its nothing more than that
called EVE Online Age Of Conan etc.. Those game seems more likely playerbased and not moneybased..
So If ppl dont wanna play this thery just witdraw and buy a bunch of gamecards on those games..

@Wed

I have decided to speak with my wallet. No more money from me to MA until the systems are back :wtg:

Ditto…awhile ago.
I’ll log back in when MA get their shit together.

you mean a system like the UT2004 Assault game type where you would have to complete certain objectives to progress through the map ultimately taking the final goal.

When the mission system was described I imagined it would be more like that, rather than the grind-a-thon we got with most of them. If you like grinding mobs then thats one thing but do we really need a mission to do it?

I’d suggest skipping forware to 6 minutes

Im waiting for beacons long time if they get out of the miners job i stop play for sure…

I havent deposited OVER a year now Until they start caring about me depositing, I just wont. Why should I give my cash to a company that doesnt give a fuck about me? There are other games I play for FUN. This I just play cause it has(more likely HAD now) potential.

TJ:bandit:

If you feel that you are treated as shit, just dont deposit. Play as low-lvl as you can… rookie stuff lasts a looooong time u know

[Talania]

I have been playing for a little over 2 years now and regularly deposit about $100.00 or more a week US and continue to get worse and worse loot! :mad:
Tired of that and the old systems not being back and no word from MA when they will be back!:mad:
Tired of paying for a system that is not even up to par with a Beta game! :mad:

After I get some items from the bank MA gets no more of my money and I am no longer going to log in until they start to do something about all of that!:mad:

@XeroX2

I am doing that for a few months now…no need to waste real money in this universe…
It would certainly make it easier to play with depos… but I don’t think it’s worth it in the current state of EU.

Likewise, I’ve stopped depositing. Used to deposit whenever I needed PEDs (either for soc/team hunts, or I wanted a new toy on auction) - some months it was quite a few 100 $, but now… meh. These days just log on to chat or wander around the world - maybe do some noobie Opalo hunts or what have you. Main reasons are that I’m sick of the crap loot, inability to stick to deadlines, not reimplementing previous systems, and well… seems the company doesn’t really give much of a damn about us.

Money speaks.

[SIZE=“1”]Oh, I also got a seriously big LOL out of the Medusa sale. [/SIZE]:laugh:

[BigBertha]

It has been oldtime-changings too..
Like When we have used houndreds of peds in making ur ava look the best and POFF an Update/new VU and all AVAS needed to be remade…
Its not the first time MA screw us..
