I agree with everything OP said 100%. I had been waiting for this game so long and I was so damn happy when it launched, it could be the perfect game but I fast grew damn dissappointed. ToS wont be able to survive unless these changes are implemented, if someone makes a private server without these restrictions most people will flock there to actually enjoy the game properly.
Which eventually makes people use RMT to get their items. And eventually RMT dominates the market (it will happen in the long run).
True F2P players are excluded and eventually have to make their own gear, which either costs them so much to make something as good to the point where they should just buy them off one way or another, or end up paying to make the gear good. The latter benefits the company, but when you can pay a fix amount to get something good or to pay a variable amount to gamble for something which may or may not turn out good, most people fall to the former, which is buying the old equips. Overall, the revenue produced will definitely drop.
I will wholeheartedly disagree with this point. In my opinion, if a company does EVERYTHING the majority of the people tell them to do, its not their game anymore, its a fan made game.
A company should have a vision, which is to deliver a game they have dreamed off and watch the people love it. If they were to bend their game to become a product of the mass majority, itāll fall far from this point and itāll eventually become purely a cash cow.
Of course if their every intent and purpose is just to make as much money as possible, then thatās all fine too, but personally I find companies that does this to their games less enjoyable because there is no longer any āreal contentā in the game anymore, and I sincerely hope IMC does not treat ToS this way.
Okey where did I put negative or positive reviews in
"lets not forget some reviews are justifying played the game for a long time but half of them have a game time of 0.5 hoursā¦
Steam really should put a limit to when you can put a review because the amount of games I have seen have this same sort of treatment."
Last I recalled this was to any review I personally believe you should at least spend a good amount of time before you can review.
Well fine, go ahead and do what you always have been doing. Not stopping you from acting like some elitist who only cares about āOh Iām 50+ levels more then everyone elseā while acting like a complete brat.
Use your head a little bit. If people can do the + - reviewes with this amount of game time, that means itās a perfectly balanced system.
So there is no point yelling that people wrote that negative review with 0.5 hour game time, cause they did the same with positive too. Take these away, and the result will remain the same. Can you follow it?
Whos yelling? I donāt recall anyone using all caps in there text anyway the reason I think 0.5 is bad is because it encourages false information if it requires you to reach say 2.5 hours of a game for instance that would imply as most basic games can be completed within that time therefore they would have an understanding of the game from start to end and the review would be more accurate.
If you allow it from as little as 0.1 it means they could put information that is not true because they have yet to pass the tutorial part of the game and for this game 0.5 barely gets you past the first three mapsā¦
Iāve seen someone saying bad things about a game but when they go into the game a bit more they sometimes find it more enjoyable and there views end up changing what I am saying its like this.
Watching a trailer and basing your review on that as the hole film thatās the short end of it if you allow a review to be conducted from 0.1
Totally agree with you, if nothing change our guild will leave and i think other player do the same, no one read our complain ā¦
You said that you could work around with and that you could use the market for trading but the market restrictions are also really rigorous.
i donāt think that so many people canāt deal with the change because it is a change - they canāt because it is a bad change. All these restrictions leads to a single player game feeling. I own a 60 days token but canāt interact with friends, who donāt have enough money to buy this expensive thing - so why should I buy a token for myself in the future? ~> Bad for IMC too
And last but not least - with all this restrictions we still have gold seller/spammers in the game, because they always find a way around so I canāt see any point of keeping this trading system like it is.
u canāt judge a game when u have not even reached close to end game⦠and in Tos no one is even close yet. the game is still missing the lvl 600 areas and stuff from 280+
Bad or good change, that is subject to debate.
āI own a 60 days token but canāt interact with friends, who donāt have
enough money to buy this expensive thing - so why I shoul buy a token
for myself in the future?ā
The fact that tokens are tradeable means this should not be an issue. It just means a non-paying player for their token will have to farm the required silver to buy it off the market first, then proceed as normal, or as normal as they can.
āAnd last but not least - with all this restrictions we still have gold seller/spammers in the game, because they always find a way around so I canāt see any point of keeping this trading system like it is.ā
Their methods arenāt clean. We canāt really use this to justify the trading system.
Overall, either way I am fine with the trading system even if many arenāt. The silver botters should be dealt with differently and so should the trading system if that is the issue.
Yeah, you canāt judge a game without playing 600 hourā¦are you mentally challenged? XD I mean, honestly⦠Itās like forcing something on somebody which is clearly bad.
Just grow up man, if somebody donāt like something after 10 hour, it means he wont like it later. Itās like saying to a girl that she should be with you for 10 y, and she will change her mind. Itās nonsense.
Iām honestly dissapointed in you⦠My arguement with you is over here, we are clearly not on the same level.
it has nothing to do with acting like a complete brat, you see there is a reason why there is trading and market.
utilize it. donāt be a hypocrite. I know it feels good to have an item you work hard to hunt but⦠there is a lot of ways to play the game. donāt get angry if other people play it the way which is against your convictions.
They justify their tradesystem changes with the goal to keep away the gold sellers - it doesnāt work so they should change it, because there isnāt any point left to keep it and many players hate it.
I think this isnāt such a good point. To buy the Token from the market you nead very much silver. Itās hard to make money for players without a token because this rigorous market restrictions.
(And maybe buying silver from gold sellers will be cheaper someday. So they just could buy it there and buy the token from the market and save money.)
I really love this game but this whole system makes it imposible to interact properly with friends.
I think most players think that itās a bigger part of the joy to help friends with trading and such things. I agree with svalinn85 that cancel the megaphones would help more than all the other restrictions.
(The worst thing - > You just can buy a megaphone for free from the TP you earn by staying in game. At least they should have make it more expensive, because (in my opinion) people anyway shouldnāt shout anything that pops up in their mind through the world chat)
Iām sorry but you cant possibly have forgotten about the FPS drop rate. This is the worst problem right now. The game is being saved only because of the fan base. If it was another game, it would have been abandoned in the first two days.
No i didnāt forget it BUT itās a fact that for the majority of people the real issues are other problems as āstatedā in all the negative reviews that keep coming.
The poor FPS is a problem related to optimization (as far as i know ofc i might be wrong) and i consider it as one of the ālittle to say, you just got to work on themā solution issues even if it IS a problem to solve expecially since there really is no suggestion thatās possible to give about it.
Yeah, youāre 100% right. I dont know how people are not paying attention to this, since its even worse than the lag. In fact, in my opinion, they think both are one and the same, lol.
I totally agree to every single idea here. Hopefully iMC listens to these plea, bec I love this game too⦠Iāve played alot of games that had player base dying/dead because of āmoney-profit prority mentalityā of game companies.
Thanks for this⦠I was about to make one of these posts too⦠and some of your ideas are actually far better when it comes to percentage value of the changes.
