    I think and i agree with Beau, that GS's should get some ingame rights to kick people from the game, if they notice an abuse of the game in any way.

    GS already have such rights. They cannot sit all day and police the game though, there are times when a lot of the team are asleep or doing their own thing outside of the network. We understand that this is a main issue though and the staff are working on ways to address this.

    Unfortunately when games are low in population they tend to inherit such behaviours. There is a lot of things we can do to help stop such activities but it won't ever be fully in the direction you hope it is.

    I mean, it's the suggestions part of forum, you can't expect people to come here to give thanks, flowers and a box of chocolate.
    People who asked for it are happy about the class tokens drop, but they do not need to come on the forum to write it on every walls just to make it look like the community isnt angry all the time. Not mentionning that a lot of people actualy just don't care about medals in 0/2 tbh. Anyway it's something the community asked for, the GMs should already know they did something good with that.
    People don't complain just to complain, they wanna improve their gaming experience. 
    And about what OP posted, ngl that's not really a suggestion 

    You're right and we do understand you and @Astraea point of view here. We did say we're slowly tinkering though and it's not even been 24 hours since the patch. Give it time and see how things unfold but please note our motives are not driven by the lining in our pockets, we've just got a server that is almost 6 years old and we've made a fair few mistakes there to learn from.

    May I also add, Viridian Stones have grown by 40% in the last 12 hours and there have been a huge amount of Stones used as well so this change applied has made a big difference. I even took it upon myself to monitor players who purchase EC via gold or AP and it's not just a surge from AP buyers here.

    sad that game was so unique and cool, sadly not many ppl liked it so it failed hard pretty fast

    It really was, I do recall wanting to do it few years ago but after researching further it just didn't seem like it would have a good shelf life and it proved that even on official.

  4. Dragomon was an interesting game and it really caught my attention when it first released. I don't think it done as well as I expected and it's definitely not a game I'd bring to VGN.

    Right now as it stands, I have no intentions on working on a project myself for a good while. Mainly because I am still recovering and will be for a long time, I do not have the capacity to work the hours I once did and may never be able to again.

  5. I believe with Step 1 of our approach this should close the gap a lot. Many F2P players already spend gold on EC so it's not as if it's forcing them to do something they don't want to do. Viridians being more attainable will definitely improve the situation and obviously it's been much harder this week on the basis many people are holding Safety Stones for their new gear which releases tomorrow.

  6. We've decided on some smaller steps for now before making any drastic changes like this. Although the suggestion is good and I thank you for understanding both sides. I have identified there is a need for more Safety Stones but we want to take it slow given we do not want to flood the game like it is on Awaken now. We never took it upon ourselves to remove Stones like official do monthly so it is ruined in terms of making it feel like an achievement for gaining such heights in the game at Awaken, we do not want to repeat such mistakes.

    What a professional approach.

    But you are right when you say that "numbers do not lie". All numbers I care right now is the amount of friends f2p or not that are waiting for some good change to keep playing this server. Even with new content and shit this server isn't fun. You should think about this, because that's not what we asked for and you know it.


    And after this kind of treatment to other players makes me think twice on coming here to ask for changes on something that's CLEARLY wrong.

    I already shared ideas here and i have more for the current state of the server but I just don't think its worth my time now lol

     

    Not my finest hour I understand that but we've said numerous times we're working on a solution and yet you all still keep pushing like we're not listening. We are in our rights to challenge suggestions are we not? We can state something will not work and that doesn't mean we're being assholes.

    Yukani had no right to try and take small pieces of information and use them to make a case look bad. It was explained that we always intended to launch as 60 cap and used 55 during Beta to amend anything necessary. Yukani took it upon herself to make it look like we're doing wrong by doing 3 caps in 3 months to justify her opinions (which is wrong). You have to remember Beta was 2 weeks long and we jumped into the initial launch cap (which is 60) and then have not done another cap till last week. I stated that as a pathetic/weak attempt (which it was) and then they took it upon themselves to use false facts to vent their anger and try and better themselves in a position they knew they were approaching from a weak angle, to then taking things personal whilst not expecting a response from me?

    Everyone knows I am respectful within my boundaries but the fact you want to take personal jabs with false information really pisses me off and you'll get the manner of respect back (which I know in times can be wrong, I am in a position of power here, but don't ever question my integrity and my will to produce a great network for this community as that's everything I live for).

    I take things bad when false facts from people who don't know the whole picture try and use that against us to better their judgement. You just have to understand we do not always see your side of the argument as we have to always look at the whole picture. Players who offer feedback and suggestions in most cases usually take a tunnel vision approach to fix their one problem, this isn't how we think and we have to look at the whole picture all the time before deciding.

    Granted again, not my finest hour and I do apologise but when I am on your side and have been playing the game these last 2 weeks whilst looking for solutions on many other areas to then be challenged as if we're not doing anything and then thrown false claims at us to better their approach I lost my shit as would you.

    The biggest issue here is the fact you don't see any wrong in their approach though, that's what worries me because I've remained professional until then and challenged suggestions on this subject.

    No, he just edited/deleted all his msgs to look better and then banned me from game for saying something on forum 🙂

    You were banned so you and your boyfriend would go to ticket instead of this nonsense on the forums. You'll be unbanned once you appeal and sort this mess out. You clearly have an image painted of myself and the Team without true facts and it's not a place for the forums every time things don't go your way.

    I've never met a more clueless person before now.  Congratulations you have allowed me to find the person single handedly lowering the IQ of the EE community.  You start to insult rather than have an intelligent conversation.  I guess its out of your criteria.  And you disappearing because you were going to die, sure its a good excuse.  If I were going to die if I went to work I would leave too but i definitely wouldn't just disappear as if they don't matter.  Good GM btw.
    Probably should read your posts before you post them so you don't have to delete them later to not look so silly 😃

    Clueless? Sure, you just don't like what you're hearing and that's fine. As for a low IQ, I'm not the one repeating myself every 5 seconds even though an answer has been given :)

    I really have no idea why it went this way tbh, you're the one assuming I am offending people because aside from my last post wtf did I say? I disagreed with people and said we're working on a solution for the 100th time. I am sure in the pipeline my first answers were probably polite but, after repeating myself a ton of times and you're not listening there is surely going to be some annoying jabs here and there because you're not listening.

    I didn't just disappear like they didn't matter I took a break and couldn't go into details about it as I prefer to keep my life private. Surely that can be respected in this day of age given my stance in this network. I was still around I just didn't work as much and was actually intending of walking away for good which then, everyone would have been told what's going on.

    So I'd suggest you and your little girlfriend get some facts together and realise we've answered this topic and it's being addressed. Just have some patience and shut the fuck up.

    Bash, you are a joke of a GM and I wish you would keep your low intelligence comments out of the forums.  If you have to go to Jordan for info you clearly are not in the loop enough to comment.  Leave it to Jordan.  Go to a people speaking school maybe too because for some reason you feel like its going to fix the server if you try to belittle me. 

    I'm sorry I don't comply with 2020 and today's standards of how to address a snowflake.

    I'll make sure the school I pick is full of anime inspired stories about how to be an entitled little prick.

    To think, I'm the one who's been pushing for change and playing the game the last 2 weeks to find out where we're going wrong. Jordan wanted to leave as is, he thinks the server's current state is in good condition lmao. I don't know what's going on though, right?!

  11. 1 hour ago, SuperDork said:

    This post is kind of more funny than useful.

    I have looked through the forums again and news post again just to be sure somehow I didn't miss something.  There was no "Schedule" for the future caps other than 65 (which was posted like 2 weeks ago).  If I'm wrong then sure my bad.
    This doesn't change the obvious problem of if you don't play the game as a job or use your job money in the game you will not be able to compete.  I don't personally know who would want 65 cap so fast other than the 5% of players who rushed through the content to gear.  Up until the last week I've seen many players STILL trying to finish a lvl 60 weapon for one class but ok everyone wanted 65 cap.
    I won't deny 65 cap has more content in it and definitely easier to plan around.  But your claim everyone wanted it is kind of silly as its just obviously not true.  Who is your top casual player that is higher than the others?  You base this on hours played or the amount of $ spent?  For me a casual is 4-5 hours a day and even that is high sometimes.  There are very few top players atm who are "casual" without spending a lot of money.  
    No one is asking for rates similar to awaken.  What we want is the ability to enjoy the game like on awaken.  Atm a hardcore player can build 1 weapon and 1 set? and probably won't waste time on another cause who knows when the new cap is cause there was no schedule.  If you want to complain about people giving you feedback and giving suggestions you should probably disappear again like you did before.  Many if not all posts regarding the game have had feedback and a suggestion, while not always good, its not always bad either.  The disregarding of the post is ridiculous and should be looked into rather than insulting a player trying to give you their feedback to help the game they love.  
    Calling someone pathetic because you get upset is laughable and pathetic in itself.  The game is in a silly spot and yes its part the players fault but its not all their fault.  Take responsibility for some actions rather than just say its for our best interest without any concrete proof its good for us.

     

    There is no schedule for caps no, my statement was based on how we presented 55 and 60 cap. @Yukani held it against us about doing 3 level caps in 3 months when we clearly advised to everyone due to the lack of content 55 had we would launch with 60 and use 55 as a basis for Beta. You forget we had a Beta that only lasted 2 weeks so technically your first cap was 3+ months later not 3 caps in 3 months. It's a weak and pathetic statement to use as a basis to where we are apparently going wrong.

    Also I never called anyone pathetic, the statement was pathetic not the person.

    We had a lot of requests on a day to day basis to release 65 cap and from a whole range of players, we've had conversations on the forums of people demanding it to be released. We acted based on a lot of factors that we believed were right for the server, infact we grew again once the patch was released so explain exactly where we went wrong here?

    65 has a lot of content we can shift in it's own pace and we have said numerous times now that we are working on a solution for the concern of Safety Stones and other areas. We've proven in the past we intend to act on suggestions and feedback but the problem is when it's denied or not an instant agreed upon feedback or suggestion we get this shit right here.

    I am also not complaining about people giving feedback or suggestions. I am however allowed to voice my opinion on said feedback and suggestions in the exact manner the playerbase is displaying to us. We are allowed to deny, counter or simply ignore suggestions or feedback.

    As for my disappearance since you gladly threw that one in there. Being told you're going to die isn't a joke and you'd walk away with a click of a finger as well so go fuck yourself.

    We're also taking responsibility for our actions, you're just not impressed that we are not jumping to the same beat as you're expecting and that's the real problem here. It's not as if we're not sat discussing or planning to fix areas that need addressing. You're just assuming the worst because a solution hasn't come within an hour.

    No it doesnt been explained numerous times since you guys only mentioned and accepted that you guys are looking to be more clear about when the new patches are coming less than 1 month ago.

    And if what you are saying is true there wouldnt be this stone hoarding problems as even YOU accepted there is, because they would know when a cap is coming out or if its worth to gear or not, And if i am weak, someone that delete,edit and close any post that he dont agree with or make you get less $ is what?


    And if you wanna talk about ''ignoring'' stuff no one forgot of you saying that you guys already pay for the BEST server there is, then 1 month later say that you guys are upgrading for a BETTER server, or when your great GS Vyzer that me and half of the server always reported for abusing of ecs, gold and dupping bugs to have unlimited gold what happened? nothing untill he get banned for sharing a video of ur other great main GS, and the biggest joke is that he back with all his gold and ecs and kept doing the same sht until he gets banned again after years that he back and kept abusing of all bugs possible. And if you wanna be smart and lie saying he didint get banned because of sharing something on discord and the reasson was because of the exploiting and dupping abuse i actually have 2 tickets one of you guys saying he got banned because of the bug and other of jordan saying he got banned because of the discord thing.

    You can also find any post of ME saying i wanted cap 65 so fast or anytime, you or vivi are also welcome to search my chat logs in-game (Even private ones btw) like she did last time to try to find it. Thats one of the reasson why half of ur server population either quit awaken server or hate you and ViVi, not because everyone is wrong, because of how antiprofessional you both are,Thats the only reasson they made another private server and some ppl went there, not because they loved normal class, they were just tired of you two.

    Another funny thing is that your classic server ''casual'' players who doesnt spend $ have gold and gears since day 1 because they all had unlimited gold and itens on awaken server and sold all for AP to use on classic server and get advantage over others since day 1, gratz to your old gs and friend Vyzer that you guys took 3 years to ban even after knowing everything he did

    Can also go ahead and make more rules of ''Staff'' harrasment or another topic on forums like before because of 1 player replying you on the same way you do with everyone else on forum.

    And if you wanna talk about knowledge or been a good ''casual'' player you seems to have the same knowledge on this game of someone that started 1 week ago if you think the only thing that the server wont be able to hold the players because they are 1 month without new content when they haven't finished the previous one yet, following ur logic the game would reach the last cap in 1 year and then what? since the only thing that hold the playerbase is the content not pvp, also if your so worried about me only wanting to press 3 buttons, which is more than enough for half of the classes on this game btw, you can search for someone that can beat me in any class on ur awk server.

    
    
     

    It just really seems like you have a chip on your shoulder from past events you clearly have no idea about.

    I was going to reply but you need to get your facts straight and stop holding so many grudges.

  12. 56 minutes ago, Yukani said:

    We understand that you guys are looking for a slower progression but i believe half of the people that are complaining about the server been too ''p2w'' are because you guys put 3 caps in 3 months not leaving any time for casual players or the ones that doesnt spend $ to catch up, thats why we have this hoarding stones problem because as soon as someone fort a weapon they are already thinking about the next cap, why is it like this? because there is not enough places to farm gold, highlands you will get 600-1k gold on cap 60, on 65 is even less, all dgs if you aren't geared enough you gonna take years to clearn 0/10 and to be honest even if you wanna sell run everything is sht xp/cp besides trials and century 0/10, increase the drop rate on other dgs, and lower the cp from century runs so ppl have more runners and dgs to sell instead of only century been worth buying.

    Also stop with this cap rush, if you guys are looking for longevity there is no reasson to rush to the last cap this server will have in only 1 year, i also hope you don't change anything on the awaken weapons so ppl can choose between keeping their old 65 goldens or the awaken ones, it would just make more ppl give up when they are forced to +10 more weapons right after finishing others.

    It's been explained numerous times about the caps and yet you still use that against us? Pathetic.

    Beta was meant to be 60 cap from the start but we agreed to do 55 and launch at 60 due to us being in a more stable position if we intended on rolling back any changes made during Beta (Explained in numerous introduction posts but you choose to ignore it and use it against us, weak). We're not burning through content, YOU and many other players demanded us to update to 65 cap or you'd quit already because of boredom.

    55 cap does not hold enough content for longevity and neither does 60 cap. However, 65 has different phases and we can phase this in longer, as does the other caps, you're missing that part here as well for someone who claims to know the game very well.

    Don't even go there about "casual" players either, there are several top players in this server who play casual and are top above the paying player. The difference we're missing here is the EFFORT required that you can't grasp because you'd rather click 3 buttons and be done.

    The biggest issue here with Classic is everyone expected similar rates to Awaken when it was made clear to everyone that we were not aiming for a quick experience. That was made clear with the rates we chose as well, we don't mind holding back content but when there is a huge demand and you know the "we're not listening" phrases threw about we have to act.

    The GMs refuse to see that there is a stone supply issue, they believe that everything is ok, that the only people complaining are people that don't spend money and when people spend money and complain also then it's just your trouble, not of the GMs. People that play since the server opened and have gear to +10 which they profited when the server started keep on GMs side just because they already got geared and don't wanna others to catch up and the ones that cannot catch up are imediately tagged as lazy crybabies just because it is impossible to catch up if it isn't in a months time at which that point would everything already been obsolete due to the next cap.

    I came here with respect, pouring time into thinking my words through, reading through all topics to see what the people are asking for and finding a vaild argument that would make you see what you obviously don't want to see, that you have a problem but you're content enough to sweep it under the rug because you still got some people left supporting you. Once they're gone and this server ends up abandoned just like Awakening, then what will you do? Once you lose people, you won't get them back and I'm tired of writing and explaining every single point to a degree a toddler would understand just for you to keep saying that "there is no problem with anything, everything is fine as it is." If everything was fine, then there wouldn't be people complaining, and I see it daily, donors leaving, F2P players fed up, P2W players complaining that PVP isn't happening, it's just spiraling out of control and you refuse to take any action because you're just too scared of what would people think of you.

    I gave my money and my time into this server believing it would be different this time, that when all of the past servers I played on EE failed or closed down that this time it wouldn't happen again, that this time the GMs would actually listen and do something before it was late, but it seems like EE has a curse and either it was designed to fail from the beginning or it's just unlucky to always be managed by the same type of people. People that don't care to listen and give people what they're asking for and thinking they know better.

    You've spoken previously about you working in this kind of job. You know what it's like to make decisions and act in this kind of situation or were you just a clerk answering tickets like a robot?

    The only problem I am seeing here is you're not happy we didn't agree with you and are kicking a fuss over it.

    You speak about there is a Safety Stone issue let's see, out of 9913 different players currently playing our game the following amount of Safety Stones exist:

    Viridian Lucky Safety Stone : 3054
    Safety Stone : 2887
    Lucky Safety Stone : 1651
    Viridian Safety Stone : 1421

    Where is the problem?

    May I also add, this is on the basis that Safety Stones have not been as common this week due to Jordan admitting he messed up a little. So what is the problem here? You're asking us to make changes when YOU the players have control of this item not us it seems.

    Numbers do not lie and we can see there isn't a problem with how many a player can obtain but more what YOU the playerbase are doing to these items yourselves so please.... Don't go starting to say we're not doing anything, we see the numbers ourselves and we know the problem, we're just trying to find a medium that doesn't go screwing everyone.

    Those are also weak attempts at trying to insult us btw when all we've done is disagree with you and your ideas (which we are entitled to may I add).

  14. Thank you for the suggestions and comments.

    I think it's important to remember that we are allowed to counter people's comments or disagree with them.

    I did spend a while replying to each area then just deleted it as I can only imagine people will pick out the bad parts and focus on those as the basis of their arguments so I'll just be clear with what I am saying and I hope it doesn't offend anyone.

    ------------------------------

    You've basically just asked us to take a marketing model from a completely different genre of game that has 1,000,000's of players playing over a game that even at it's prime never touched above 10,000 players on official. Your suggestion on vanity items being one time purchases is a good one, but it wouldn't work here unfortunately. The reason being is we only have x amount of players compared to y amount of players playing a MOBA game. Even 1% of y would be a huge amount of cash against x who might not even be enough to keep the lights on.

    The main issue I keep seeing is the refusal to play an MMORPG properly. Time is of the essence I am a busy man myself so I respect people being busy however, the people claiming time to be the problem have hours of daily login time recorded and when checking their logs to see what they're doing, they're sat rambling on for hours in peer chat or personal conversations doing nothing. This is your concern as a player, if you refuse to play then so be it but we cannot just adjust a whole game full of people playing to appease the lack of efforts from a specific group of players.

    Now I aint saying we are not discussing ideas to improve Safety Stones (if they're even a problem) but we do not act on impulse and just do, we have to analyze and assess the impacts of any changes thoroughly which takes time. You have to also remember that YOU as players are hoarding Safety Stones and refusing to market them in-game, I even found conversations of a specific group of players doing this on purpose to force our hand.

    As for your rankings suggestions, this isn't a participation medal kind of environment and never should be.

    This now seems like just another thread where a bunch of you have sat in Discord rambling on and someone has bit the bullet to assess the "state" of the server in yet another thread as if it's failing when it's doing fine. After Safety Stones are fixed I am sure another new discussion where players refuse to play the game because it "takes too long" so then it then results in yet another assessment of the "state of the server" as if it's failing.

    Now I am sure the next replies will be related to us not caring, you not donating or just clearly quitting. That is of your choice as is your response and actions but we have made it clear we are working on a solution you're just not going to be happy after that as well because clearly everyone just wants to login, be done in an hour and then come to the forums demanding something to do and discuss the "state of the server" yet again on that basis as well.

    In the end we cannot win and that's fine but we're doing what we believe is right and is exactly why we boast of a 11 year existence as a network.

  15. We're not saying that we won't change anything in the game, our actions are not motivated by greed. We just have a server that's 5 years old already and have seen what happens when the game is made far too easy. We've already acted on community feedback but that falls on deaf ears as per, now here we are being accused and insulted as per, until people get what they want.

    We will come to a decision and act on it as soon as we can, thank you for your feedback, we look forward to the next round...

    It actually was basically free on the FR server, you could even go up to +10 for free with enough grind. Seeing the SS rate in alpaca capsules here, +6 here is probably the same grind as it was to get +10 there

    Obviously not asking for the same here, would be dumb, but i doubt making +6 accessible for free would be a bad thing. Viridians would still be bought by all the loaded people out there and you could release halcyon viridians in altar if you really want people to buy +6 stones.

     

    You cannot expect us to ever take note of other's actions. Every server is of it's own direction and just because x, y and z done a, b or c does not mean we should ever follow suit.

    If we should follow suit should we go to the rate of prices Aeria and FR offered? In the end you get more for your money and that's something you (and many others) seem to forget when you have tunnel vision.

  18. I feel like you've just had a bad experience with your funds and are taking it out on us. I think it's unfair to try and compare our Awaken rates to Classic when we're trying to achieve a different goal here. If you want Awaken rates then go play the Awaken server, go and spend the same amount of money on Aeria right now and then come spend the same here let me know your outcome.

  19. Hi all,

    We've recently received information that a video has leaked proving duping is possible in Eden Eternal. This is not something that can be done so easily and we can assure everyone that we have taken the necessary precautions on avoiding such issues in the future, as well as monitoring player activity.

    May I also remind everyone, this video is very very old. No duping has been done on Awaken for a long time I can assure you that and we also reversed as much damage as we could. Due to new monitoring methods we've installed into our systems we can assure everyone if this was to happen again we would find and delete the players/items involved without any hesitation.

    Can I ask everyone to please stop wasting our time with assumed reports of duping. We are on top of this and are monitoring closely. The methods of which this duping is caused is a few and far between occasion that if anything was to happen we can simply analyze our logs and data we collect to pin point who is behind what and remove it before any damage is caused.

    Thank you again for those who play the game fair.

    I absolutely understand all of your points same counts for Jordan (especially the thing with stealing the data if you would involve "volunteers"). The thing is (in my opinion since ive played EE for years and GF for like 8 or 9 years) EE is a way more PvE focussed game than GF is. Endgame in GF is about PvP and optimizing your gear. There are three main reasons why the game dies: 1. Aeria doesnt ban people who missbehave because of AP AP as well as they dont treat people in the community the same. 2. They fucked up class balance with releasing broken classes to force everyone to make them then they literally nerfed all classes instead of these both and PvP is hella boring so there is no sense to go into PvP (either u are one shot or all are immortal). 3. The game is next level p2w because of things like GM wishes and the only focus in this game is on clays (which could be changed so this game makes still huge profit but you arent forced to pay 600€ per month to keep up with others). 

    Last year there was a big announced pserver for GF there was a Discord server about it etc. In under 2 weeks over 5000 people joined that Discord while most people (especially spanish, portuguese) didnt join cuz they thought its fake or dont speak english well so only their friends who speak english joined the server to translate the announcements. 
    I absolutely dont know if 5k players is a lot for you but its more than the playerbase on all official servers together.
    This game is kinda a selfrunner and new dungeon content isnt what is needed to keep the game alive. The PvP needs to be "fine" not even perfect and people play this game forever. The community formed (cuz the GMs asked us to) a group of experienced PvP players to write down things which arent really balanced or could be changed also what needs to be changed and other stuff how to improve the gameplay in PvP, PvE or whatever. I know people who just play the game to spam dungeons even if u dont get anything out of it. 
    The best example for how crowded this server could be was the new server called "Siwa" they started in 2018 if im right. Ive seen some problems already one week before launch and told the GM (he got fired) about it but he said its all carved in stone and there is no chance to change things and so it happened (what a wonder - aeria doesnt know to run games idk if they even know how to run by themselfes) and the game failed after 4 months and people STILL spent thousands of dollars/euro. I know at least 4-5 people who spent (each of them) around 0,7-2k at a single event. Just imagine how it could work if some brains (take it as a compliment) like you run a server. You did a great if not even perfect job for EE. I loved that game and i still do but my heart will always beat for Grand Fantasia cuz it has several unique things ive never seen in any other of the dozens f2p games ive played.

    Holy shit i already wrote a novel so i try to sum this up fast and precisely.

    Pros:
    - 5k+ people who would play
    - a lot of whales (high spenders for ppl who dont know this) and mostly all players spend around 10-50 per month
    - old players could come back, 50% left because of Aeria

    - selfrunner-game because of PvP focus and long time focussed PvE (you don't farm stuff as fast as in Eden and ppl still dont get bored)

    - People are done with Aeria they stay because there is only a bad private Server around which is pretty dead and did literally ALL mistakes Aeria did itself - a lot of people are searching for exactly this thing (even more through quarantine which will last way longer than expected)

    - The community is all time ready to help out with ideas for changes or whatever, you dont have to do this alone

    - If there is time to create new content for you it is pretty easy because X-Legend didnt use existing part in the game ( they never expanded items or already existing content) they just released new things which doesnt even match the game

    - The game is as Jordan mentioned similar to EE in a lot of things, mechanics etc. 

    - for example GF got a resistance system like EE which doesnt work since release (like how tf) and just implementing this working would already make the community freak out since it could change the whole gameplay

    - Players are already happy with a PvP Event instead of regular content - there have been tons of Player hosted events without GMs or Gs getting involved before the new classes came

     

    Cons:

    - new classes needs to be removed or changed from their penetration focus to defdown as all other classes, since penetration doesnt work with this game

    - a lot of spells with durations, dmg, cooldowns must be adjusted to balance the game (this is especially needed for high lvl or endlvl content) but balancing is a progress and it was ignored since this game was released - balancing wont happen in one day but is also the biggest part to do (since i have no clue how much work it is to change the new classes. if their code isnt salad it should be fine but ive never seen their code)

    - it could take some time to think how to make this game as much non p2w as you did with EE (great job. never thought thats possible) of course there must be profit but profit doesnt necessarily needs p2w


    Other people: You are free to add pros/cons yourself - to keep it objective try to find a con for every pro argument (not like me pls im trash).


    Jordan & Bash: I absolutely understand that you dont want to open a game which u have to close a few months later because of missing capacities. I would love to stay in touch or discuss about this with you (maybe per Discord in a private atmosphere to keep this civilized and the chat clear) feel free to text me if you got any questions about this game or the possibilities (Discord: Cruzzades #0940)

    Thank you very much for your insight and efforts explaining this to us.

    I cannot promise anything but I can see about doing something, we just need to be sure it fits right. I need to assess a few things including my own well being before I decide to take on another project. I've only recently returned and taking on a big project like this might be bad for the network at it's current stage.

    The continued interest does re-ignite and I can't lie we had this game on the test server with a website and full back end all done. It was pretty much thumbs up and we had to cancel so it's not as if we've not been almost there before.
