Please do walk the talk, don’t do this newb error where first you said F2P then go for founder, cant handle the heat, then you guys finally open for F2P, then change 1 of the F2P to founder, which pretty much intefering with Player’s gameplay experiences, then you guys decide to annouce Telsiai are open back for F2P without even thinking about “player’s gameplay experiences” which is your customers… then the hate comes from your own customers, suddenly you guys decided to say;

“This post previously included an incorrect announcement regarding re-opening Telsiai server to F2P users. The plan is not yet solid nor substantial enough to be announced. We are discussing about the plan at the moment”

If you are still “discussing”, then dont fukking post any announcement regarding the things which you are “still dicussing”. just admit your mistakes, that you cant take the heat and thats why you pull back those announcement by saying “still discussing”. What a noob mistake.

Yes, I know some knights in shining armor of IMC will defend them by saying Most of MMOGames releases launch have issues like this, but sorry to say, I must say, this the worst of the worst experiences that I’ve ever had, just like EA Games(issue of battlefield 3 when it was first released). You can stop licking their butt, cause they need to improve their management

Just sharing my honest two cents…
-sincerely, from a MMO player…

If IMC turns into EA, they actually did a good job from a business perspective…

Maybe you are too young to know, but EA is like almost a 30 year old company. If IMC lasts that long in this industry/market, I too will be surprised.

But if it is the worst of the worst, how can it be just like another experience…?

Other than that, I hope you can calm down and find some inner peace. Have a good evening!

I think you just dont know what youre talking about.

said f2p and go founder? it is f2p. early access was needed imo and they should have stuck with the 3 month option.

Finally open f2p cuz cant handle the heat? the plan was always to go f2p.

change one server to founder? they just arent allowing people to join cuz its full.

You kind of contradict yourself on the server thing.

Both interfere with gameplay experiences? either one will? So doesnt matter which they do and you will complain?

Even if it wasnt an accidental announcement, alot of people complained about it, so maybe they are rethinking things. You guys complain whether they listen to the community or not.

Gringe, it’s more like Im giving them the only solution for their compny, I know it’s never eesy to open new server(the pyment and such), but that’s the only solution they have. Yes, you stated “it is F2P”… well boy, if you look at it now, most F2P players having a lot of more issues than founder players.

Yes, they should know how many SEA players are, they should research bout it first, but instead, only 1 server for the whole SEA players, can you even brain this? Lol

#8

yes, EA is a 30 year old company, and Im not talking about EA from their first year, didn’t you read? I was talking about IMC is doing the same mistake EA did when EA released the bugg-ish Battlefield 3, did you remember that? Totally a sell out just to gain fast money without even thinking about “player’s gameplay experiences”…

I hope they would improve more after this and be more professional/considerate towards their players/customers/clients

#9

Sorry, i dont know what solution you are giving them. I guess you will have to point it out to me.

There is 2 SEA servers though?

I’ll break down how everything went down if you dont know.

They wanted 3 months early access so they can fix server stability and open new servers as needed. 50 dollar package, 3 months, 30 2 months, 10 1 month. This would spread influx of players. Players complain, changed to 1 month for all packages.

Huge influx of players, servers unstable, players complain.

Push back f2p 10 days to open another server, players complain.

1 server not open for new players cuz its full, players complain.

F2p comes, servers unstable again players complain.

Announce opening of the server they closed to new players, players complain

Take back announcement, players complain.

players “fix everything now!! you suck imc you never listen!!”

Do you remember the Diablo 3 Launch? Do you remember de Wow launch in 2004? or Burning Crusade? that servers EXPLODED and BURN like hell, the sanctuary is cold compared to that poors servers.

Do you remember BF4 launch? bug and hangs everywhere, i wait 1 year after launch to play it

Do you remember … (put your favorite game here)… all the games in the lasts years have terribles launchs

In 1 or 2 months with luck we will be playing TOS, all happy, waiting for new content.

#11

Yes i hope so, but with all these knight in shining armor of IMC, they’re defending them without even giving a room/push for them to improve their management.

#12

If this is directed to me, im defending them against what you personally are saying in the OP.

I tell them all the time they need to fix servers and optimize. Never said there wasnt issues.

#13

It’s more that you guys always give terrible examples…

IAccording to EA, Battlefield 3 garnered 3 million pre-orders by the day of its release.[120] The pre-order total makes it “the biggest first-person shooter launch in EA history”, according to the publisher.[121] Two days after launch, EA CEO John Riccitiello announced via a conference call to investors that Battlefield 3 has already shipped 10 million units within a week of release, with 3 million of those being pre-orders.[122] Electronic Arts stated that the title sold 5 million units within the first week of availability, easily becoming its fastest-selling game.[123] After one month, EA chief financial officer Eric Brown announced Battlefield 3 had sold 8 million copies, and that the publisher has shipped 12 million copies of the game to retailers, 2 million more than it shipped for launch week.[124] Peter Moore, the high-profile COO of EA, insisted that Battlefield 3 successfully captured a slice of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s market share.[125] On 29 June 2012 EA revealed that the game has sold 15 million copies

They certainly failed hard on release…

Now you’re probably gonna say…

Well those players 2 days after the release, still bought the game to bring them to 13 million compies sold…

@Gringe nope that was a reply to Darthan.

well guess what, thats what normal people have to face once they have a company which have a lots of customers, in this case a lot of unhappy customers. responsible. and customer always right, they(IMC) shouldnt complaint bout that.

Yes, I do understand what you are trying to say… but, my main rant is regarding the wrong announcement(and also regarding servers) which they clearly made that bold mistake, and suddenly gave correction announcement today, why not yesterday?

  1. Telsaia was open for F2P, since one server is never enough to support the whole SEA players.
  2. Then suddenly they changed Telsaia to founder, which ■■■■■’up with F2P players.
  3. Massive delay lag/bug in Varena, sometimes it takes 30mins just to talk with one NPC.
  4. Yes they are fixing it… yes they are fixing it…
  5. But why must F2P player only have 1 server for 'em at this moment. Didnt they look at the player poll?

That’s why I said, I dont know what else to say, and the best solution that i can come up for them is… open a new server. Then everybody is happy

#15

I see. I agree that they should open another server if they cant figure out how to make the 2 they have better.

@artooc3po yep but that doesnt change the fact that;

  1. they still made millions with a lot of bugg.(sell out)
  2. its still buggish for quite a while,

Slowly, you will see how this game turns to a milking product. Well, it has already started milking though :joy:
