I have to say the Levels of Drama that surround this game & the effort posts about pay 2 win has made me re install this game once more.

Hate to say it but im actually enjoying it again :)

What the gently caress are you talking about?


The exploit basically allowed anyone to gain 20 honor every time they attacked an invincible character. It involved breaking a pirate character out of the holding cell area before they go to trial and they are immortal. It was found out that multiple western guilds were doing this hours before Forestcrow's siege of the main west guild's castle so they could get pvp gems in their gear. Lots of people were banned and there were drama afterwards.

Then right before the siege the west guild attempted to use an exploit to prevent the siege by disbanding the guild so the castle had no owner and attempt to reclaim a the castle at a new spot but completely failed. It resulted in FC winning the siege in 5 minutes with no defenders.

Lmao what a shitshow. Fire the devs into the sun.

I thought I was almost getting repetitive in the post, but I guess not so I'll clarify.

This game is lovely and no one should play it.

How do you perform server mergers in a game where players own non-instanced parcels of land on the map?

Oh my.

quote:

AA is all I play, I have stopped spending money on other games, and all my money goes into AA, basically, what I pay in AA is equal to an apt monthly rent. Merging servers, sadly would make me quit. But im a positive person, and I will save a lot of money. Was planning on playing for years, hell I did WOW for a decade, and never liked it as much as AA. I have a lot of AA dreams at night.. I fear this is going to turn them into nightmares

quote:

I guess many other people asked this already, but how do you think you can find a compensation for people which worked since release to gather all the land and which will lose it after the merge? There isn't a thing like a "non-usual", "new", "non-tradional" way of a Servermerge which prevents losing land. Personally I have over 60 plots (4 mansions, 2 maisons, 20 gazeebos and lots of 16x16 farms). I have several patron accounts which I use to keep the land, I've paid hundreds (probably even thousands) of Dollars to buy credits/tax certificates and now you're simply destroying all my work.

quote:

we'll lose something we've worked so hard and spent so much money. We'll lose all our memories of building everything from scratch up. It's like we're losing our real life home.


quote:

Same here. I'm playing on Kyprosa and here is my land. I've worked since release to gather every single plot, I have tons of Gazeebos, 16x16 farms, 2 Plazas, 4 24x24 houses and 4 Mansions. I don't even play in a large guild, it's just me, my husband and a few friends. If I lose a single plot I'll also move to another game. I can't bear it to lose everything I've worked during the last months, paying thousands of euros... and to lose my dearest neighbors. It's not possible to compensate me for losing all this land. I've spent too much Euros, time, my nerves and memories in this game... I'm paying for 9 accounts every months. I also don't want to lose all the nice people I met, all my neighbors. I simply can't start with nothing on a new server.

I still play on Aranzeb, which is one of the most populated US servers. You can go place 16x16s if you spend five minutes looking. The landless babies will be fine if they exert a little effort.

What I was told was that in KR when they did it all the land was reset, players received pre-built structures that they could place down and poo poo, and there was another enormous land rush.

Which frankly sounds loving amazing.

The best part is they are saying all this is months away. Months. Why even mention the possibility of mergers if you don't know how you will do it yet, and won't be doing it at all for months?

Oh wow I can't wait to read all the freakouts if they do server merges. For me, owning my 6 plots of land was basically the whole game since I don't have the time for serious business PvP anymore. If I was still playing, server merges would be the end of the line for me.

Why wait? The forums are already acting like it's a done deal and about to happen. Everyone is threatening to quit and not drop a majority of their paychecks on the game anymore.
