I think I'm done...

Between the incessant lagging/frame rate freezes (that always occur around dragons and result in my death), the constant nagging me for money (free to play, yeah right show me the coalescent ward drops), constant kicking in T2 dungeon runs, and bugs that make me more frustrated than I was playing FPS games, I think I've finally had it.

Testing this new patch I lagged out in the *horrible* professions user interface and hit one too many A buttons because it was absolutely non-responsive for like 5-10 seconds. Screwed me right out of 50,000 AD to finish something (stupid) early. Do you really need to beat me out of my money that badly that you couldn't put a confirmation prompt in there? Like I haven't spent enough here already?

It's not fun anymore.

    lag during dragons will always happen because people overload the servers to farm them,

    you get kicked from dungeons because youre not an important class or because you arent playing your class right,

    everyone whos ever owned a computer in the 90s knows multi clicking during lag issues always makes the problem worse,

    and its pay to win, they only make money by harrassing us players with deals and whatnot, its free to play, not free to maintain.

    to fix these problems in order,

    1. dont fight dragons on a server with more than 20 people

    2. play dungeon with two friends or guildmates to ensure you always have majority vote on kicks

    3. never ever multi click during lag, if its unresponsive, wait for it to adjust

    4. ignore the pay prompts, they are required to keep the game running, if people stop paying the game dies with no maintenance fees being paid

    5. (more on dungeons and class) choose a class that people need in dungeons, ie Cleric, Guardian fighter, Control wizard, and most importantly, remember, clerics heal, guardian fighters take threat, and control wizards group the mobs together, if your class doesnt follow those simple rules you will always get kicked. unless you choose to follow number 2 on this list.

    It isn't just dragon fights that cause the lag, i get it the vast majority of fights even in low pop instances with no other players around including inside solo minidungeons for the daily.

    There is no nag for money. You may be perceiving one, but it is only in your mind. The lockbox winner notification does not ask for money, in any way.

    Coal ward can be obtained for free three ways, change AD to Zen buy in Zen store, Buy with AD in AH and the weekly coffers from the Vault of Piety. The coffers have a low drop rate, but seems to be around 1-2%.

    ok im sorry, but the combination of making lockboxes drop from every group of enemies you fight and the winner notifications is a play for money, this is the sceme,

    give players a box, tell them they can win something cool if they open it, sell them the keys, put a bunch of <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> in the boxes with the cool thing and put the chance of getting the cool thing below 1% but dont tell them that.

    when every mob i fight gives me the box and every three seconds someone wins something and it prompts me im sorry but i feel a bit nagged.

    Look I think they did a wonderful job, frankly AS LONG AS THEY DIDNT LOWER THE GRAPHICS then i am satisfied, i even made a $60 "donation" to the developers for making such an awesome game. I will continue to this play this game UNLESS THEY LOWERED THE GRAPHICS IN THIS NEW PATCH

    I wish they would turn down the graphics personally. Or give us options to toggle off "other players abilities" "enemy abilities" etc. I have played games in the past that had these options and they improve game performance tremendously.

    And what a good job they're doing with the maintenance, what with all the constant lag spikes regardless of whether or not your in a high populated instance and the game ejecting people to the dashboard. What did they do in the last update? Oh yeah they moved the Tarmalune trade house from the items menu to the store menu (This took 2 hours to do). Just what we've wanted how did they know?

    Edit: I don't know why OP is butt hurt about the paid content though all MMO's are either free to play with paid content or a subscription, at least with this one you can get the paid content for free if you're willing to farm so it's not pay to win either it's the price of convenience.

    Closing this down as it's both an "I quit" thread and the replies it's producing really aren't constructive at all.
