So apparently silver from offline work is broken now? This has happened to me the last two times I've tried to claim my offline silver:

I'm about done with this game for a while anyway, so I guess this is an appropriate send-off. gently caress you too, Chinagame.

This was happening for a while to me and then it fixed itself giving me 30 liang at once. Now the thing doesnt even show up anymore.

Really? It used to be that you would log in after work and you'd have some waiting for you.

Claim it during kidnapping hours. Just leave it unclicked when you log in, wait until 20:00, then open the menu, click end game, and instead of hitting "quit" click "rewards" and THEN claim it.

You have to be offline through an entire reset cycle, from 0:00 to 23:59, before you can get in the labor queue for any unbound I think.

I decided to raid my old guild this morning and got this hilarious insult from their leader.

I don't know if i will ever get something this good again but i am hopeful.

*scribble down notes* That one was kind of good. I have to use it someday when fighting a rootless.

So far the Shen family had me:
- Refuse treatment in an emergency (patient too poor)

- Capture bunnies for experiments with needles on them.

- Beat low wage laborers with a staff

- Trap a baby deer for further needle experiments.

- Steal tea leaves.

After that they tested dangerous experimental acupuncture on me without my consent.
I’m not sure I’m ok with that.

I feel like this faction is a breeding ground for demented serial killers. Are the beast villa or Xu family quest line and daily tasks less horrifying? Do they ask you to throw kittens in the river and collect debt money on widows forced to sell their children into servitude ?

No, I'm pretty sure I've gotten it with something like 15 hours offline before. Very rarely, though.

Beast Villa quests are pretty consistently destroying animals. Different types of animals for every tier, but so far it seems the faction that loves animals pretty much just wants to hunt them for parts.

Yesss? The value of a cell phone has not gone down, has it? They're even more valuable now, and more affordable than ever, and absolutely ubiquitous. Of course we live in an inflationary economy generally--I do not think of that as a good thing. My point is that in an actual free market, prices going down is generally a good sign as to the wealth of society. Cell phones are just a handy illustrative example.

They are an extremely poor cherry-picked example. The price of electronics has gone down, but most people don't need electronics to live and electronics isn't a huge part of their budget. On the other hand, the price of food, fuel, housing, education, vehicles, and healthcare has gone up dramatically over the last 50 years, and that poo poo is someone's budget.

madmario posted:

Because opportunity cost is real, and because you need to eat tomorrow and to drive your car to work today.

Yes, hence the 'if you can buy it tomorrow' clause. But as noted above, you don't need every good right now. So markets like housing, factories, etc. slow down and eventually people just stop making those goods, so you can't get them when you need them. Then the economy implodes.

We do not have a free market in wushu. We have central planning. And central planning is dumb and infuriating. This is a Soviet economy.

Literally every MMO is a planned economy. It can't not be a planned economy, by definition!

Apparently 5th school internals are out in china version of chinagame.

http://www.ageofwushu.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=23034&sid=fbd77096ad2df3151014de6ee98b06c3

The previous rumors were all mostly wrong. 5th school inners are apparently very close active wise to jianghu inners. You have to complete a quest chain to unlock the tier + first leves. Then you can complete a weekly 7 times cap event, daily trade in of certs/sheepskin and challenge fights to get the new currency used to get higher levels.

Jianghu inners got a boost to their cap as well and are now at 75 which will be two strength identities higher than 5th inners will be.

The way the game calculates your strength level changes when you go over "100" with each new level in your inner giving you 2 points in the calculation instead of one. So Jianghu inners, which right now are at 100, will get an additional 22 points from their 11 levels, which takes them to "hidden talent". School inners are at 90 right now so, 5th ones will start at around 55-60 (Peak of Power) and cap out at 110-115 (Unique).

Yeah none of them are as OP as their beta versions. And I love that a few of them basically mimic one of the favored pay2win jianghu inner :cripes:

I dont know, there were two conflicting "beta" 5th internals and their skills were incredibly OP. No way in hell would you get an inner that makes a person invincible for 15 while at low health and then have them recover a portion of the damage that they sustained in that state. They'd be immortal during guild wars.

These seem a whole lot more down to earth but also incredibly dull in comparison.

So last week I accidentally click a horrible lore item from one the dudes in the banks and ended up eating half of the profits I got from selling a ancient tai chi frag to EmperorDing. I was pretty loving bummed out because I was going to use the money to buy more internals and gear.

Today I was about to start a tp when the leader dropped for an afk check. The moment we are about to start for real I see the red lantern with the girl from ancient taichi RE and I couldnt believe it was for me. But it was, chinagame loving love me.

Daily information post for chinagame. First topic, actual china versions incoming update.

As I mentioned yesterday, the latest china version patch included 5th internals and updates to jianghu inners. Jianghu faction inners are also getting a boost taking them to t5 status. A new ancient set is being released, ancient sets are going to go up to level 10, school 1-3 sets are going to go up to 11 and 4th sets to 8.

New instances are going to be made that drop the new currency to upgrade your 5th inners.

Complete details are Here for those that can speak this moon language with like 3000 characters.

Also for our version, Snail is planning to aggressively re-introduce inflation to the game. I'll just quote Earthquake since its faster

Earthquake making sense finally posted:

Greetings. Please be aware, this topic is my #1 priority. I have read all of the posts in this thread and check it for updates on a daily basis.

I am currently in talks with the technical team / Developer team on a daily basis on this topic.

Here are my current talking points with the Dev team.
1. Lower price of Ding to $15-20 USD / Ding.
2. Make Kidnapping VIP only.
3. Add another period to the Greedy Kidnapping Event.

The above are all feedback and suggestions provided by players in this thread. While other suggestions including the development of new game mechanics are promising, they are not able to be implemented quickly, thus they will be provided on a separate report to the Dev Team.

Due to the fact that we will not be having a maintenance this week, no changes will be made as far as a resolution for this topic. I hope to have an update on this topic by maintenance time, next week.

Thank you for your continuous participation in this thread, your feedback and suggestions are invaluable.


Will they actually carry through with it? Who knows! I know I'll be holding unto the frag and books I just got for a few weeks instead of selling them now.

For those who can't read moon runes, there's this. 5th inner info

The tael price lowering is long overdue as well. I doubt it will cause much inflation in the high end goods market because the price of high end goods is pegged off the cost of illegal taels, not actual Snail taels. Current price is between 10-15 bucks per ding from gold farmers. They might undercut harder, but if they do it will be a difference of a few bucks rather than half the price. IMO it's a good idea.

Yeah my eyebrows seems more accurate about air, at least the first hit. Second is still bad.

Just a quick note since I hadn't seen it mentioned: excursion doesn't lock your fourth set, despite the wording of the npc and the website. Just lowers it to 4 like the others. And every internal lowered to 30, which sucks for tangmen. It tracks your cap and level of each skill and internal as of when you excursioned.
