Oh realy you dont see the reason? Small hint: Profit Pet pouches and Gem fragments prices raised by 50-75% because of higher demand while the supply still stay at the same level or even get reduced. It just make it even harder vor casuals to catch up since gold income also was reduced.

They already did it with MxM. One cashevent cheased the other and a few weeks later they announced the shut down. And to a void to get sued for comercial fraud they refund players who bought items in the last few weeks befor they announced the shutdown.

well or sure, not me, i even caneld my premium cause im not willing to support a company that dont give a ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ about their customers ;) LoL ?!? seriously? this is far beyond redicoulous Looks like they realy try hard to scare away even the last players

What Servers you will merge? there are only 1 EU and 1 NA server left. Merging these would render the game unplayable for both, EU and NA due to the high ping. So you can save up another merge and shut the servers down imediatly instead. What i am curious about are the income of trove compared to the last trove. I have monitored the trove and there are way less advertisings of people who bought stuff out of it. This either means way less people bought keys or the droprate of good stuff is the worst ever. If ill take a guess, i would say it might be a bit of both.

A9+ referes to Aransu Stage 9 Weapon from VT, the next raid after BT GCx referes to Grand Celestial Weapon from TT, the next raid after VT

Nope its P1: cash shop and trove P2: how to milk more money out of our players P3: how to milk even much more money out of our players P4: lets reduce material and gold income to milk the last penny out of our player P5: tell the community team to not bother us with any complains and just ignore them Dude you are the best, realy. You just made my day xD You are realy special and a genius in finding excuses for NC-Soft. Honestly they should hire you, if they havent done already ROFLMAO

They even removed the orb fragments you need to do Heavens Mandate / Cold Storage Boss 2 from Daily. Since you need HM when its on daily rotation you soon will be forced to buy them from F10 at daily offer... Guess they just found another way to milk the last penny out of their players

Again you just find excuses for something thats not excauseable. If you WANT or NEED all 8 DC-Rewards, there is NO alternative, you are forced to do this stupid quest. You wouldnt need 5+ alts when NC-Soft wouldnt be so greedy and would let people a chance to catch up with only one mainchar as it should be ;) The next problem is, the content moves forward much faster than the majority of the playerbase are able to follow, which will cause in problems finding decent groups for TT, ET and upcomming raids. I can do TT / ET, maybe even on my alt, but since many just satart with TT there are not much offers for ET places. Oh and dont tell me go find a guild, i have a nice guild but we are to much for 1 ET and to less for 2 ET raids and i dont leave my guild, just for a raid.

Wow it just took 11min 42sec? Do it with 5 chars and you are close to 1 hour for basicaly nothing? 11-12 min is basicaly what i needed to clear SSM and HH in normalmode pre patch. Havent tried it after the patch. Also i got at least some valuable things from doing it. This quest is a timewasting ,deadly boring quest where you dont get anything valuabel from and overall you are forced to do it, when you want the complete DC rewards cause there are no alternatives. NC-Soft again screewed up the complete playerbase while keep affirming they are listening to us, but keep doing the opposite of what the majority of their playerbase want. I'll guess you still belive their statement, they are still working on the friendslist bug. Honestly, after nearly 2 years even someone who just begun learning a programminglanguage should have learned enough to fix this.

I wouldnt even wonder if they will tell you soon MSP works as intended. NC-Soft realy love to screew up their players ;) I heard that from a friend too, complaining he dont find any matches since the patch. Guess their fix will just match up everything that queue regardless of rank. So comming up 1300 rank group vs. full equiped 1600+ group, Whales need to have it more easy xD They already tried it in a redicolous way in the past by adding BT and VT soulshields with a very low chance to drop to HM. There was only just one Problem. Those who did HM didnt needed them anymore xD Some poeple seems to find an excuse for everything LoL Guess what it means. This BS means, they either dont even bother to test the crap they change cause they simply dont care about EU/NA, or they just hire plain incapable people. Looking at the, now good 2 year old, bug with the friendlist, and their default excuse "We try hard but cant find the bug" ill guess its a bit of both. Yes they did it in the past but here they only nerfed outdated old content. Right now they nerfed every freaking content, even the newest. So nerfing income from old contend in the past now justify nerfing income from actual contend? Its not only that they nerfed income, contemporaneous they also increased the amount of quest you need to do for DC. So more work, less income. Would like to see you people when your boss tell you, you now have to work 10 instead of 8 hours a day and you sallaray is reduced by 25% per hour. Well BnS is just a game, bot over time with all that reductions on gold and materials, it became to a second full time job, overtime included, when you want to reasonably keep up.

Honestly? do you even play the game? I did this freaking quest today. Dooing this ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ quest took longer than a freacking BC Hardmode run because the droprate of those ouches is rng and can be quite bad. Havent count the mobs i had to kill to get the 30 pouches, but i had over 10 in a row not dropping a pouch. Regarding whiteknighting: honestly, you praise every bullshit NC-did in the past, you always found even fantasy excuses (like the masses of players who are complaining, everything is to hard and need to be simplifyed, and no one beside you ever saw one of them) You are such a whiteknight, you must shine even brighter than our sun...

I wouldnt wonder if there will be an official statement "Works like intended" With the last patch NC-Soft did everything to make our life harder. We need more time fo finish Daily while we have less income. Guess NC-Soft thought we made to much mats in way to less time in MSP...

This patch ̶m̶i̶g̶h̶t̶ ̶b̶e̶ is the last straw. I playing since release now and i saw a lot of changes, some few good but mostly in a disandvantage for the playerbase, keep sacring players away. With the new system you keep the majority from finisching the daily quest complete. To finish the daily quest you need to finish 8 quests and we only have a choise of 8 quests. No alternative quests.You blocked the majority of your playerbase to get all daily quest rewards which is importent to continue upgrade your stuff. At the same time you again lowered the gold income from Daily quests, even it its hardmode. You added the newly released dungeon in HM on Dialyrotation at the day it was released. Realy? How many people you think would have finished the complete daily on wednesday? I for myself have no issue with doing HM, at least up to BC, but havent had any chance by now to try WC and the new dungeon in HM, since my quild dont have any static groups for dailys and im depending on random groups, like many others too. Moone refuge is just an annoying timesink collecting 30 pouches with a bad droprate. It become even more timeconsuming and annoying when there are a lot ot other players around doing this quest on multiple channels. Finishing this quest took me same time as complete DailyChallange befor the freaking patch due to so many people doing it... What you basicaly did, massively increasing the amount of time neede to to finish quest while reducing the income and contemporaneous cutting of the majority of the playerbase from even finish the 8/8 quests. Well some whiteknights might come an say its enough to finish 6/8 to get the unity stones, but no its not because people are again gated from upgrading Consequences: Ill took a break from december till april, came back because a friend asked me to, but i never regret the desission to come back like i did after this patch.

Thats what they always did, reducing income and then give discount to upgrades. So basicaly the price for Upgrades stayed the same. Thats why we have a few players with either a lot of time or a lot of money having TT / ET gear while the great majority still "idle" on VT gear and struggle more and more to catch up. Watch the market and see how prices increased over the last few weeks. The demand for materials continusly is rising wihlt the supplyment wont increas or even get shortened. Well at least until we cough up to asia as they want us to do. We had 3 years less time to catch up to a where some of us are at least close to asia gear. But those invest either 24/ time farming on x chars or a few 1000 bucks. When more than 80% of the population is unhappy in real life, the gov might have much more to worry than just loosing the support cause in history it mostly doesnt end well, at least for the gov ;) We have a saying here in germany: "Never bite the hand that feeds you"

Since there never was and difference in Gold for NM / HM im quite sure they didnt introduced it now, so it wont matter if you run EM or HM gold will be the same, but we will se for sure after maintenance ;)

Uhh Discount, wow you are a master of blandish every BS NC-Soft do. Not to mention So Yeah discount is realy usefull when concurrently material / Gold income is reduced. But keep fooling yourself and pretending everything is fine. nuff said

Well i did 2 turns this midday at about 1 and 2 pm CEST with my normal progress ending 2 fields away from start, logged out and did my last turn just a few minutes ago where my progress was resetted.

Realy NC-Soft you now scam players even with daily Dash by resetting the position, even you have just been just a few fields away from start and could have finisch a round to get a petpouch? This starts to get redicolous

Did anyone request to get everything maxed on first day? You either dont read, or you just dont get it, we are talking about a reasonable amount of time to upgrade. And a few month / years are not realy a resonable amount of time when there are x new updates / upgrades and you keep faling back more and more. They just added ET, the next raid is comming with this patch, even it might be a small one, while many people dont even begun running TT and a lot wont even be able to find a decent group befor the next raid after ET will be introduced.

That wouldnt be a problem if NC-Soft wouldnt constantly reducing gold and material income whil pushing updates like crazy For sure you dont need it for most dungeons / raids, but thats what most players request. And no its not plain stupid that people left because they cant catch up. Because with every new genereation of gear they are left more and more behind and have less chances to catch up because NC-Soft might lower the prices of old stuff but also lowering the income, so in the end you dont realy save time with the reduction materialcosts of older gear. Oh realy? Tell me more. Must be the reason while we always ask for valuable farming spots, cause we are to spoiled, dont want to put anny efford and want everything for free. So requesting valuable farming spots instead of getting everything for free == want to get everything for free. Seems legit... Whats next? Telling us earth is flat, water always find its level, show me the curve? At least you are as good as any flerf parroting this nonsens you states above. No one want his/her stuff for free. We just want valuabel farming sports and the oportunity to farm our stuff in a reasonable amount of time. Instead we need more time with even less income with the upcomming patch. So dont assume we are spoiled and want everything for free...

So either you are on NA or EU and blue. Im from EU and red and dont see any people complaining about how "hard" everything is, at least not regarding F8. Honestly the opposit is the case, People complaining how things get more and more easy and braindead. Ok some complain about Hong / Mao but these are solo dungeons not F8, not a raid. As far as i remember 3 people need to enter Soulseperation and a party consist of 6 players. Guess what, this dude was not the only one who failed, there are at least 4 other people who failed too when only 2 went in Soulseperation. Nowadays you realy have to try hard to wipe a party, even with "just" decent BT gear LoL Anyway, im still waiting for a proof of all those imaginary fairytail complains about things are to hard. How about some screenshots (Shift-Windowskey-S) but dont forget to black out names ;) Wait what? Let me think. When is started the game, every dungen had its mechanic, Hardmode was just the same only with a 4 men party. So you could learn an practice the mechanic in Normal (6 men party) to prepare yourself for Hardmode (4 men party). People helped each other learnign the mech to clear the dungeons. Suddenly our Normal (6 men party) became hardmode, while the Normal mode was just a dungeon without any mech even close to hardmode mech compared to the new hardmode. NS is a good example, they removed mech from Normalmode not even 2 month after release. People had no chance to learn the mech in normal mode anymore. TSM Normal nowadays is just a joke and most higher geared players can even solo this dungeon LoL So its beeing spoiled to request something we had but what was removed with removing the 4 men parties? Wow, just wow LoL No cause NC-Soft made player like this with transforming a good game to a braindead hack n' slay game and keep forcing to many upgrade in to less time so even veterans stuggle to keep up without playing 100 alts or selling their kidney / soul to NC-Soft. That exactly is the problem. 1. the only realy interesting, challanging and enjoiable things left in this game are raids. Everything els in the daily routin is just boring stupid monotone. 2. those who are on the hunt to catch up will have it even more hard and need to spend even more time while those who are quite high in gear will slowly start falling back. Let me recap People i start playing with: last one quit last night. People i started BT with, still playing: 0 (and im talking about the 24 men BT raid) People i started VT with, still playing: 0, ok a few logging in from time to time but non of them still activly playing So i think they dont "just" might quit, lots of those veterans already did. Yeah it is a fact, even there are more players willing to use LFP up to TSM, at least by now, dont know how it will change after patch. Anyway, why people changed over time, because they are just unsocial and selfish or because NC-Soft forced them to get things faster and faster to keep up to date? Think about it and tell me again its not at least in larg parts NC_Softs fault when they forced people to be the way they are now by rushing us through the updates and upgrades while constantly reducing the income?

you realy expect any kind of usefull early cummunications from the side of NC-Soft. Well we all hoping for this since game was released, but it never happend because they simply dont care. See removment of Badge excange announced just 16 hours befor it occoured, or many many importent informations just left out in the past.

Because your character might be a great warrior but therefore you char is plain naiv and plain stupid (braindead would fit even better) running into any no matter how obvious a trap over and over again during the story and since it seems totaly normal to mass kill children in asia to make something dramatic since there are no other ways ;)

Havent seen any complains about dungeons beeing to hard in a very long time, please show me (and link them here) all those Complains about dungeons beeing to hard, so NC-Soft feels forced to continusly nerf dungeons. Last time i saw these kind of coplains where when DT was released. OH and im Not talking about Solo Dungeons where you truely see some complains, but these are also mostly complains about droprates and NC-Soft never touched these dungeons, at least i cant remember any Solodungeon nerf. On the contrary i saw a lot of people complaining Dungeons are way to easy. What people are complaining about that its not realy worthwhile to do Hardmode. So NC-Soft did the only right thing, istead of macking Hardmode more valuabel, the decided to make normal (now easy) mode even more worthless. [/zynism] So either im blind or to stupid to find all those imaginary complains about dungeons beeing to hard, or you just fantasize about this point ant telling fairytales. Try finding a 1600ap group for BC / WC even you make your own, good luck... And yes somehow it is NC-Softs fault because they keep pushing update after update after update rushing people through the content to stay up to date, what most not even manage without cashing. As i said, i remeber times where people had fun doing dungeons, offering learning partys for dungeons and raids, explaining the mech and gave people the chance to practice. I also remeber Times where there was a little Button when you entered a dungeon that was meant to explain the mech. But when you have clicked this button it told you "Under developent" or "Comming soon" and some day this button was gone. Many people requested a "Learning mode" some kind of Dungeon with full mech but reduced dmg and no wipe mech. So people can learn and practice the mechanics and see when the do something wrong. But instead of this NC-Soft decided the easy way lets remove mech and so they made people lazy to even bother to learn the mech. The count of people who still willing to help new/low geared is shrinking. So yeah, it is NC-Softs fault, at least partial by not offering any mech explanation ingame, not offering any oportumity to learn mech and rushing people like crazy through the content so they dont have time to enjoy the game and help out each other.

Oh wow, you assume most "veterans" are lazy and braindead and only can burst? Thats quite bold. You wonder how many of us can remeber HM mech for HH? Well i even remember and for sure could still do HM mech in NS, or how about 4 men Hardmode in DT / EC or even in Shattered Masts, Nexus, Asura or even Awakend Necro? Do you? Most of us "veterans" complained when they announced they will remove 4 men and therefore add NM and HM and made our NM 6 men party the new HM. Most of us "veterans" always told this is one of the biggest mistakes NC-Soft ever did, as we always told the other mistake was constantly nerfing mech in NM So what will change for F8? Nothing cause most of us "veterans" did Purple Train in HM anyways, but also most of us "veterans" have static groups we do it. What will happens to "lower" geard players? Well they wont have any better chances to do HM in F8 cause as i already mentioned, most "veterans" do it with static groups and not random since the danger of wiping and wasting time is way to high. On the other side most of the "lower" geared will have even more reduced material and overall gold income, cause instead of making HM more atractive by increasing the reward NC-Soft did what they can do best, lower the rewards in Easy Mode. Meanwhile they add more and more upgradeable Stuff which needs more and more materials / gold, while the income is decreased. Back in time when we still had Hongmoon weapon and assessouirs we need a lot of mats, but we also had way more oportunities to farm them. People will struggle even more to catch up, more will get frustrated and more wil leave. Oh yeah i totaly forgot about YT. We all just watches a Guide went to TT and cleared it first try, right? Hell i watshed a lot of Captain Joe and Mentor Pilot videos, maybe i should apply at an airline as a comercial pilot, who need practice when you could a read and and watsh some guides ? Joining a Guild wont help you in any way. 1. Most guilds, if they are not newly founded, already have static groups for Raids and HM Dungeons. You have to be very lucky to get a place in those groups. I found a realy good and nice guild and i was lucky to join their TT and even once their ET Raid could learn and practice some things. Anyway i still had to search for my own Raid, cause im just a "replacement" when someone is missing. Maybe i will get a static place someday, but this would mean someone from the current group have to quit in first place. And thats how it would be for anyone who joins a guild. 2. Even if they would take you they wont bother much to explain and simply carry you and wont let you practice some mech cause they just want to do their stuff quickly. We all know you praising anything NC-Soft do and you just keep repeating the same stuf over and over again, even you know (or at least should know) it wont work.
