  • I agree. I don't think anyone is contending that, though.
  • Wow, I look away for a couple days and bam. Thank you, everyone, for weighing in with your thoughts and takes on this. For what it's worth, I think this change in the business model does indicate that Cryptic is trying to right the ship. That's why I feel this is the right time for a huge move like this. To revisit the…
  • Thanks for weighing in. Couple things stand out to me on this. I want to be clear - I'm not saying Cryptic doesn't have a right to make whatever business choices it lands on. I'm not saying it's on Cryptic to bear anyone's financial burden. I do believe it has an obligation to itself as a business to try to be as…
  • I wasn't saying you were strawmanning me. You were defending the person who, however, was. Look back at the original context. That's important. I focused on 83 days, because you yourself said that it wasn't very long. That's a strong indicator that you and I will not agree on these metrics at all, which is why I was fine…
  • Pardon me while I refuse to be strawmanned. I'm suggesting (italicized because this is going to come up again later) Freeform be free. Not everything. I would consider it a valid response if I were actually asking for everything, as that's literally what was being said, but I wasn't. Only gets you two months, and all of…
  • I wrote a whole post regarding this, and it disappeared on me when I went to edit some clunky wording. Oi. here we go again. That's interesting, and I wasn't aware of it. I'm happy for the people who can maintain their subscription throughout, but one hiccup, one lapse, and it's locked? With the only recourse being to buy…
  • I tried to run the regular client, not on PTS, just now. Noticed it patched something. And it connected! Looks like the positive response here from the PTS testing has fast-tracked the roll-out for the patch going live, so it looks like all's well! Thanks, guys! Glad this got resolved.
  • Here's to really hoping. Thanks for keeping us in the loop.
  • Hey, gang. Still been in contact with support over this, and though I was originally hesitant to put the latest development forward, you guys deserve to be in the loop and it kind of... I don't know... rubbed me wrong? Maybe I'm being unreasonable. You guys will call me on it if I am. The latest response I got was a small…
  • It's sad that so many people are having to roll back their update because of this. I'm not even sure what the update really did. I'm sticking with the update, though, as eventually we'll have to deal with it either way, and undergoing that donkey of an install isn't something I want to deal with again. I really hope the…
  • I just tried to connect again, and I noticed there's a new patch. I was hopeful! My antivirus even balked at me over it. So my hopes rose even more! Alas, no dice. Same issue. To my understanding, they ARE working on it. But keep the reports coming. The more people who come forward experiencing the problem, the higher up…
  • Oh hey, look at that. I checked it, and did indeed replicate your results, aesica. Look at me, learning how to internet. ^_^; By the way, I've been playing ticket-tag with CO representatives a little bit now. Hopefully we'll have a solution to this problem soon. But keep sending in tickets and information, guys. I'm sure…
  • Additional: Submitted my ticket. # 180502-000440
  • Would've posted originally on your thread, but I didn't look for it there. And I'd agree that things would be best consolidated, but this is definitely a technical issue and not a bug in the gameplay. Gotta make sure it's in the right forum. We could maybe get a mod to combine our threads into one on this forum directory,…
  • What you guys are saying is exactly it. It was the 1803 update that I installed right before this began. Also, are you guys using Steam to connect to Champs, or Arc? Because it also might be impacting other games associated with Steam, but in kind of weird ways. For instance, Payday 2 - seems to run fine, but if you click…
  • Yep, that's been a thing so far. And if you look back at the news article, all mention of a vehicle discount have been removed. But rest assured, we aren't mis-remembering. If you look at the right of the screen on the news article, the summary says: "Circus Malvanum returns, and you can save on vehicles this week!" I…
  • Hey guys! It says you added a 'no ear humanoid head costume'. I can't find it. Where's the option tucked away? Or am I just completely overlooking it somewhere?
  • Hahah. Awesome. I think this is an outstanding step forward for Cryptic. Not only is TrailTurtle helping to finally bridge the gap between players and staff, but he's also bringing in some fun lore. Major kudos. Keep up the good work!
  • I really appreciate that you took the time to make this post. That was cool of you. And I'm happy to eat my words. Thank you.
  • Well, I don't mind admitting when I'm wrong. And here, I seem to be. I didn't see the thread when I first looked for it. So, there you go. My apologies. Though, check in "every so often"? Man, you're a terrible stalker.
  • Hold the snark. He has a good point. What was the deal with the shutdown earlier? No patch notes, no posts, no communications about it at all. What gives? Are we just gonna pretend it didn't happen? It makes one wonder why they didn't just implement this update at that time. And if it wasn't ready right then, why the heck…
  • Just tossing this out... With the CP thing being done away with, everything (on a numbers basis) costing more in the C-Store, and emphasis being on how things aren't changing on a ratio scale... ...Are we going to see questionite rewards increase to scale/compensate for what translates into a price inflation, or are those…
  • Ah, yeah. I found it - you're right. My bad. I was really certain for some reason, but eh. This is why we call it a fact check. :D
