i like this game, but really? the devs havent been doing a lot sinse release.
balancing
you have people who can 1 shot, and have 30k+ health.
swordsmen is currently bad
and sadhu, is really sad right now.
and the release of the r8 wizards info doesnt help much either, especially sinse theyre taking their time on releasing the other classes
queues
idk y, but there are queus where ther are 10+ people standing next to me queuing for the dungeon, and it stil ltakes 30 minutes to get in.
and then grinding, i wouldnt be so annoyed by grinding if it wasnt so boring in this game, if you want to grind from 150-160 (which i didnt, had no problems) then you will spend 24+ hours grinding, i could be doing other things. speaking of grinding, its super hard to find people to party with in the 150 grind wall.
and to make it worse imc refused to add in pvp so theres no other way to get past that grind wall unless you skip it, and then get stuck at level 180 (im stuck at lvl 179, need to get to 180 for a new quest. so im waiting for arena to release so i can get exp cards from there)
and then, QUESTING!!!
why is a tail, a 5% drop chance on a wolf??? in this game thats the logic. you get a quest that requires you to collect 10 hogma teeth (actual quest) but you end up killing 50. like i can see the tooth in the dead pigs mouth, why cant i get it? why didnt it drop?
also, when you have to pick flowers but it has a 70% chance of exploding.
but the gameplay is nice, everything ^ up there are the flaws. there are tons of pros, i personally love games hat allow maximization in customization. like how this game has so many classes, that is what got me hooked to rift, i played rift for years just because the class system was so good, cleric was doing more damage than mages at times, warriors could go ranged and destroy everything, the rouge could stealth, and place traps and bmbs, and the mage could heal ect.
i really dont want this game to die, i feel like this game wouldve been way better now if the devs did this:
-
added a higher spawn rate a few months ago, wouldve kept a few people from leaving
-
had team battle league from the start, with all these pvp games coming out (overwatch, battleborn ect) the pvp crowd left to play those games.
-not have so many restrictions
-
applied the more important balance patches. (really? like just inplement the wizard and swordsmane patchs and it will be fine, nobody wouldve left due to weak and./op op classes)
-
changed up the grind walls, made them easier to get through or more rewarding (i personally lost interest at lvl 154 while i was at dina bee farm, the r8 info brought me back)
-
exp events, exp events will bring back players and keep players that are deciding to leave because its basically FREE XP and free levels.
