OP would say, open beta is open beta, you shouldnt have believed perfect world/cryptic when they said there would be no wipe
-
It's amazing that people dont understand that players ARE content. Free players are people for paying players to group with, make friends with, be in guilds with, players who craft and put stuff on the AH, players who make foundry quests, and players who potentially will purchase things from the cash shop. Saying your…

Yes but things would still be different. The AD-Zen exchange rate could be different after a wipe, meaning you could have less zen or less AD than you previously had. I know alot of people who bought zen, and cashed in on the easy AD at the start, and will be reselling the AD for Zen when the rate lowers. People who got…

Not going to happen, going back on what they said, after people have spent tens through hundreds of dollars in the zen shop, would create a PR nightmare. Perfect World/Cryptic already has a shaky reputation with alot of people, they wont want to create more reason for distrust. Everyone gets to 60 eventually, its not…
-
Not to mention, that most MMO players (not I didnt say all) are notorious for playing what is efficient, but not necessarily what is fun. You could have Disney world mixed with Universal studios with a touch of Willy Wonka's factory for questing, but if it takes significantly longer that Doldrum grinding, most people are…

I wouldnt say that, a tier 3 mount is what $30-$40 on the zen store? A Rank 3 companion is another 30ish? and thats only for 1 character, so with a founder pack it would have a value of 30 x # of characters you make. The diamonds form the guardian pack will net at least $12 in zen, 2.50 for 1 extra slot (based on 2/$5) and…
-
only once per account. What you could do is convert it to zen, then buy diamonds back on the new server. You may make or lose diamonds in the process, depending on the conversion rate.
-
Why does it have to be the $200 pack, why not the $60? The $60, to me, was where the value was at. The $200 was for people real passionate about the game, or with to much money.
-
It is free to play, you are playing it, but you didnt pay for it. /shrug
-
this is 100% nothing like DDO, DDO, to me, seemed like a fairly complex game, this is much more action RPGish than anything else. If you come into this expecting DDO levels of customization, you are going to be VERY disappointed.

constant reminder to buy keys from the zen store?
-
50k AD is more like 100-150 zen atm, The reason prices may be high up is because founders got 2 million or 600k diamonds right off the bat, so there is a glut in the market, its also a reason why the exchange rate is in the upper 400s for 1 zen. Also lock boxes and greens drop like candy and the boxes can also be bought…

1) No, its all instanced 2)Not sure what you are asking here, you are probably seeing the Foundry quests, quests made by players, go to the queue tab to queue for the actual dungeons and skirmishs made by Cryptic 3) players can create dungeons and custom instanced quests, its called the foundry system. You need to get 1…

You cannot, however they are planning to merge the 3 shards into one large server at some point in the near future, they only released the 3 shards to help spread the load while they prepared to migrate everything into one server. So soon, there wont be a dragon, mindflayer, beholder anymore.
-
Nothing will be lost, no character wipes, no guild wipes. The game will probably never officially "launch" This is basically whats called a soft launch, its really launched, but they still want to use the beta tag until they can clean out some more bugs and stabilize the servers.
-
The only thing i dont like is the cost of bags and respecs. Other than that I dont have a problem. Then again I'm used to being able to make my own bags in games.
-
You have your extra character slot, the standard is 2 slots, but you have one extra from the guardian pack. Also extra slots cost 500zen for 2, the exchange rate for diamonds to zen is around 450-500 diamonds for 1 zen, which will come down as the supply dries up from the founders packs. So right now, extra slots would…
-
I get what you guys are going, but remember mount rarity color has determined speed for a very long time. People are going to be confused that its referring to skin rarity rather than speed.
-
I believe that they are not account wide because you can unbind them and then resell them after they are leveled. You should be able to make your money back and them some. Could be wrong though.

Honey badger dont care.

Here is my passing analys of the guardian pack I posted in another thread. As far as the diamonds go, taking the mount training and purchasing out of the equation for all your characters removes a large diamond sink from the game, that should make them last longer. But if the Diamonds are the ONLY reason you would buy it,…
-
Woot, almost time for some wizardly goodness!
-
You would have to request a refund for the guardian pack, and then buy the HotN pack. Though ask yourself, is $140 extra really worth getting in 1 extra day (assuming thats why you are doing it)
-
Think of it this way. The companion is a purple quality companion, others of the same quality go for ~$35 in the store (using what I remember the honeybadger being) give or take, and they are a 1 character item. So, value wise, you are getting a $35 x however many characters you make value there. The mount is a tier 3…
-
Nope. Most of the quests you find are made my Cryptic. The foundry quests are specifically labeled. I'm not in yet so maybe someone else can tell you where they are, but I remember a NPC at the beginning of blacklake gave out alot of foundry quests.
-
Did you buy a Hero pack or guardian pack? If you bought a guardian pack, you cant play till Saturday the 27th. Today was for the Hero pack people.
-
So, its still as fast as the fastest mount (Rank 3) but its only blue rarity? I can deal with that. Let the super special mounts with the cool skins be "purple" as long as I have function I'm happy.

4th edition
-
There will be NO wipes starting today. So when you play on the 27th, the characters you make WILL NOT be wiped. The game is "essentially" launched
