Yep, this thread hold no meaning others than to tell you guys the reasons why me and my friends decided to quit TOS this week-end.

TLDR: If you do not care about reasons why peoples decides to quit a game, I assure you there is no merits in you reading any further.

Let’s talk a little about my journey in TOS.

Me and 14 of my friends decided to move to TOS because we wanted a game where we could all play together and kind of have a blast.

Most of my friends come from different background, many are gamers that used to play games such as Diablo 3, Guild Wars 2, Ragnarok Online and many others.

We are a bunch of adults gamer, ranging mostly from 25-40. All of which are childhood friends. We were all searching for a game to settle in, a game where we would enjoy playing together, an MMO.

TOS was the choice we made, artistically speaking it appealed to many of us and the game-play footage we saw was great.

So we all bough our founders package and started gaming together.

The first few days of gaming were expected to be hellish like many MMO and TOS didn’t fail at having it’s share load of errors, CommanderLoad Fail, Dungeon not working, Quests bugs, Lags and others small annoyance all of which we expected.

So far it wasn’t that bad, there were bots everywhere, gold spammers and teleport hack running rampant in the first week of the game. But this all started to calm down a little during the second week.

At this point we were expecting things to run a little more smoothly. But many peoples in my groups started to feels disheartened and some started quitting the games early in the second weeks. Many of them being unable to play at all due to the infamous CommanderLoad Fail.

For those that remained, we wanted the game to succeed, in fact we wished for the game to succeed.

Second week passed, still many errors, mainly dungeons not working many times, or some peoples getting caught in the CommandLoad Fail zone.

All in all, the second week resembled the first week a lot. But the third week started much better with bots being banned and errors kind of slowing down. We were seeing some lights, sadly at this time we were only 9 left as 5 of our initial groups had just left for good.

Despite all this we continue in this journey. At the end of week 3 we were 7 peoples left. After 4 weeks we were 4 left…

And today the four of us sat down and asked ourselves why we wanted to play TOS in the beginning. It was to play with our friends, friends that have quit.

So in the end we came to the conclusion that we should quit too.

There is many things that this game could have done to keep us playing.

But here is a few reasons we discussed together as the main reasons for quitting.

  1. Lack of Monsters in MANY areas, spawn rate were just abysmal in MANY areas of the game despite the 50% increase at some point.

  2. World Bosses, while I personally didn’t care about this, some of my friends felt it was really stupid how it currently worked.

  3. Dungeon not working properly. This one was a HUGE downfall. THat with the limitation per day for running dungeons was one of the main reasons many of my friends quit.

  4. CommanderLoad Fail. Enough said.

  5. Lost Experience / Mini ROLLBACK when game crashed, this one is literally unforgiving in an MMO. Doing a full run of a dungeon or Mission to have the game crash near the end and retract ALL your experience earned during that run was a nail in the coffin for at least half of my friends.

  6. LAG…LOW FPS…Game being severely not optimized. That was is a huge flaw for a game with so little graphics.

  7. UNTRADABLE. Need I say more, you play with friends yet can’t trade many of the stuff you get especially once past certain levels, mainly 200+.

  8. Too many glitches/bugs. Despite the game being in Open Beta, it felt for the most part like playing a Alpha Game that had never done any Closed Beta.

  9. The game didn’t feel group friendly for the most part.

  10. Unable to create a guild without becoming templar.

All in all, the more time passed the less peoples we were…I know many peoples will not care about us and that’s perfectly fine. We were just a bunch of guys, wanting a game to have fun together and we all feels we picked the wrong game.

So yeah, that’s it. Today mark my last day here, we decided to give Stellaris a try this Monday!

I hope you guys continue to have fun!

Sincerely,

Seishin Kan

its obvious that you will find a worthy home in maplestory 2. that game is going to attract more eyes than this game ever could.

they’re also not pushing the game out asap and unfinished. they are doing thorough proper testing. you and MILLIONS of others will enjoy it there. your 13 friends in this world too

#5

I quit long time ago along with few of my friends.

I still visit the forum to vent and read what’s new with ToS.

I want this to succeed but… there’s just too many problem that I just cant go around recommend it to other people.

The game really isn’t group friendly. I can’t imagine how hard it’d be to manage such a large group haha, I couldn’t do it for three. But I’m still holding on to hope that it’ll become the home mmorpg I want it to be HAHA.

Like Cha3m said, I love the game but I can’t recommend this game to people unapologetically without feeling like I’m gimping them one way or another. There’s a lot of things that you just take it upon yourself to ignore.

Goodluck elsewhere man. If you guys don’t find anything striking, maybe return one day when the bugs and issues are a bit more sorted out and try again!

Which is why they don’t fix issues been reported even during CBT and open F2P in a week? I fail to see the logic here.

#9

This game is also unforgiving regarding level difference. Did you guys ALWAYS play together? Because I can imagine that at least one of you left because the system wouldn’t let him catch up.

#10

you are lost… i was never talking about imc and tos. you quoted me saying

" they’re also not pushing the game out asap and unfinished. they are doing thorough proper testing…"

Here i am talking about maplestory 2. Where i told him he would find a home. More so than this game. how did that evade you?

#11

It’s the other way around, the game isn’t very friendly without a group (at higher levels).

sadly thats relative to your class choices and play preference. some dps will just solo their whole existence here, and group up for ET runs and maybe their 3 daily dungeon runs.

Proper dps builds just solo everything. 80k-130k mobs are just standard solo mob farming for the proper dpsers

unlike other boo-hoo-ragequit posts in this community, I find yours TS, reasonable enough…like you’ve really had enough *pats shoulders *
good luck on your journey for a new mmo home!

farewell.

Oh, my bad. I think I need some glasses.

#16

There is no class or build choice that solos everything. At 200/220+ you will get almost no exp killing monsters if you solo.

#17

This game still have alot of issues that needs addressing.

But seeing imc is busy with the server transfers and f2p opening day i will excuse them for now.

I do hope they address these issues asap once f2p is out of the way.

My biggest grip with the game right now is simply server capacity.

#18

It’s actually fcking funny how we use to dog on people… but after a while we start to understand and feel the same pain… fml…

#19

TLDR

But I totally understand why you’re quitting. The game is not ready nor the staff imho. I on the other hand prefer to stay hoping for things to get better. Good luck to you guys and have fun :slight_smile:

#20

Maybe it was just too early for you and your whole group to join the game.

This is still testing phase after all. Early Access, as alternative to an Open Beta, so while still annoying, errors are to be expected.

Maybe it’s just not the right game for you and your friends. In which case I hope you find a better suited one?

Farewell!
