Found out today you'd sent it to someone else in Vaior, so I figure it was probably you - thank you! That extra 500g helped fund mats for a guild manor in West Halcyona. That will help on Hellswamp packs for those who still play.

Trion support has become such a joke. Some pages ago I told you that my account got banned after sending items to a goon. I appealed on the 31st and have not heard from them since. It also said "This account is banned" when trying to log in. Today I thought I would like to check my account again, since I just received an email that my sub has run out. And suddenly I can get back in again. I also didn't miss any possible emails from them, I currently don't run a spam filter. Yesterday I thought that I should annoy them a bit for fun and sent mails to any Trion address I found online, like publishing and others, maybe it had to do with that

It apparently wasn't enough that the game sucked poo poo, they decided they were going to have ridiculously awful customer service as well. I really wish I had sold my account/land for real money when I had the chance. Now I'll just be bitter at all the money I spent for nothing.

That's really funny, because I remember Trion having good customer service way back when Rift first launched. What happened?

imperialparadox posted:That's really funny, because I remember Trion having good customer service way back when Rift first launched. What happened? Partly they seem to have vastly underestimated the number of customers the game would have at launch. Then 2 million accounts turned up all at once, and they didn't have nearly enough server capacity or customer support to deal with them all. So at the worst people were reporting 6 hour queues to get into the game. That burned off most of their new game goodwill and excitement right out of the gate. Over the next few weeks they doubled their number of servers and queues eventually went away, but it wasn't ideal. It's weird that they underestimated so badly though. They knew how many founder's packs they had sold, so they shouldn't have been surprised at how many people turned up during the 4 day founder's head start. This isn't their first game launch either, so they ought to have had an idea how many free to players would turn up to try the latest thing. They shouldn't have been caught with their pants down.

So many mistakes made at launch and since, but I still think they should have: 1) Suspended FTP until they fixed the game for people who had paid to play; 2) Postponed adding servers until #1; and, 3) Properly compensated founders. Instead, they basically sacrificed the enjoyment of people who had already paid in order to try to convince new people to play and then pay. I'm guessing if you checked now, some huge percentage of the people who are still actively playing are those who bought founders, even though many more founders have undoubtedly left. As we close in on the last day of patron status for founders, I'm guessing they might be regretting their decision. I don't think the game is necessarily doomed to an early shutdown, but I do think it has permanently damaged itself and will be less profitable than it could have been.

The founders were dumb enough to spend money on this and make it profitable for trion. The founders are to blame.

You can forget new races etc because the original developers have moved onto other projects.

I really have no idea why I still log in roughly once a week for 2-3 minutes to pay property taxes. I suppose I don't want to give up my land until my Patron runs out and I can't pay taxes anymore, because the game doesn't seem to be 100% dead quite yet. Then again, I'll very likely never play it actively again, so I'm not sure why I waste even a couple minutes a week.

It wouldn't be so bad if you didn't keep coming back to this thread to tell us you only log in to pay taxes.

Oh they'll go a lot higher. One interesting thing is I've not seen any bots farming for a while but the gold spam is still very strong. I wonder if most of the Chinese gold farmers saw the writing on the wall and are just trying to sell up their stock?

Appraisal Certificate inflation is the best. You need 1 cert for each 100 gold of value to sell property safely. The certs themselves are on the auction house for 120 gold. In effect it is now impossible to use the safe system to sell land profitably. At this point you'd be better off just selling the certs themselves and letting your land burn down rather than trying to use the certs to sell the land.

At this point you'd be better off just selling the certs themselves and letting your land burn down rather than trying to use the certs to sell the land. I was able to sell land for 199g using only one cert. I'm pretty sure its every 200g that requires a new cert. [edit] Also, on Aranzeb basically all the bots have moved to Auroria. You can pretty consistently find little pockets of blighters killing the undead knights or whatever the gently caress they are, shamans/arcanists killing the water elementals, and solo blighters/abolishers killing the plant dudes in Sungold too. I also still see them pretty regularly on the ostrich things in Windscour near the lake. I don't see why anyone would expect worker's compensation prices to have any correlation to gold farmer activity, though. [edit2] Also, Worker's Comps will hit a wall (if every other price stays the same) at around 110g. Beyond that the only people who'll buy them are those who can consistently fish without interruption, do charcoal traderuns without significant risk, or are simply willing to lose money on each labor they use for some reason. That price ceiling is going to fall when the divine gift thing hits, too, and from what I know about the droprates of those gifts it's probably going to fall enough to bring Worker's Comps with it. kznlol fucked around with this message at 08:11 on Jan 18, 2015 |

kznlol posted:I was able to sell land for 199g using only one cert. I'm pretty sure its every 200g that requires a new cert. It's actually a bit more needlessly complicated than that. Up to 199.99.99 you need one cert, plus one for every fraction of 100 gold after that. So 1 cert for 199, 2 certs for 299, 3 certs for 399, 4 certs for 402, 5 certs for 525, etc. So right now today you could net up to 80 gold on any piece of land. There is no reason to ever charge more than 199 gold. Which is great for people who want to buy, and terrible for people who want to sell. Unfortunately buying land isn't a great idea right now, because tax certs are up to 3.19 gold each. Bad time to be a land baron.

Is there a way to get AA in this game to look like it's actually doing anything? the in-game options don't seem to have any noticeable effect. Are there any external settings I can use to force decent AA? I'm using a GeForce 980 GTX.

Well in theory you can edit the config file but you may as well write it on your wall, it doesn't seem to take anything from there for some reason. If it's not taking from changing poo poo in game you're just hosed.

I'm fairly sure my AA is working and I didn't do anything special. Maybe its just a config issue with your video card drivers or something? Try uninstalling them and run whatever is the appropriate registry cleaner then give your catalyst/nvidia drivers another go. If that doesn't work you're probably best trawling a hardware site.
