And it isn't just hours, these guys have been working on this project while we have been playing it for literally years. Imagine working on something you love for years, trying to get it even more beautiful and them BAM! Slap to the face. I'm surprised they didn't put everyone into a big time out to chill for a bit.

Re: Server down?
I just can't believe the amount of hating that was going on earlier in the day. Those poor guys have had a total shit storm thrown at them and yet they are still working to make it nice.

Re: Server down?
Kitamie I think that was like 90% /v/ tards just spamming forum
also it's not unexpected when you spring something like this on us without saying anything beforehand, pretty annoying for all the people who spent the whole day getting hyped to play a f2p game
I personally dont care about p2p but I think the way this was done was pretty bad
the store should have been released after the server issues were ironed out also, the combination of p2p and broken server is lethal for a lot of people

Re: Server down?

Re: Server down?
We can do only so much and we all want to play the game too (we are doing this for free mind you). Believe me I have been deleting threads and handing out warnings and bans left and right yesterday when the servers were down. But they kept posting more than I could delete.BlackKopcap wrote:I'm more surprised, why moders not banning ppl for offencive words, but just give one day ban for spam. just for casual spam??? oh, yes i suppose, it's not tolerance...Kitamie wrote:I just can't believe the amount of hating that was going on earlier in the day.

It is good to see some people with common sense posting now. The payment system is ok, their communication was lackluster but oh well...it was clear from the very beginning that there was going to be some kind of model to monetize the game.

Re: Server down?
No, it was not. Well, maybe for someone playing throughout a few years, and taking part in the developement of the community (7600+ forum posts cough cough), but for casual on-and-off-and-on-again players P2P thing was out of the blue. There is a reason things like pre-release notes and community managers exist.burgingham wrote:BlackKopcap wrote:Kitamie wrote:it was clear from the very beginning
Anyways, with all these downtimes I really see no reason to NOT give a 2-week free trial one-time-basis ('til, say, 14th of September) to iron kinks and damage-control the p2p shitstorm (balance the payment plans etc). The gametime will be frozen for half of those 2 week due to server being down, by the looks of it. And since it's a one-time thing it will not mess up the "bot protection via paid subs" shennanigan.

Re: Server down?
*laughs* All I can think about these folks complaining about the server being down is how often there were crashes in World 3. XD
I am pleasantly surprised by how quickly the server started to stabilize, I got a good few hour runs in last night between crashes. It'll get better with time.

jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

There is a saying in Mother Russia -- " One doesn't checks the teeth of a stallion received as a gift". Well, the stallion isn't a gift anymore. Therefore complaints, see? Is logical.
