  • Yup- been waiting since open beta started myself on a ticket- can't get through to phones, only get automated responses continuing to ask me if I still want my billing issue solved. Think it's time to get the bank to deal with it, since Cryptic clearly doesn't want to provide anyone with support.
  • Here's a good punishment- leaving the game entirely. Oh wait- that's already happening en masse. You think a 15, 30, hour long deserter debuff is going to matter to people? People are not willing to put effort into gaining nothing- heck, we don't even do that at work, we get paid- for Cryptic to think players are going to…
  • Playing the game, you can get a cat and a tier 3 mount after about 4 months, with a mix of luck and extremely hardcore dungeoning, you might get your enchantments needed in about a year- by which time they'll be obsolete. And that's with hardcore play- for things that are BiS/needed for dungeons/pvp. Sure, you can say…
  • There's a difference between 'unfinished' and broken. When you make a game that revolves entirely around the economy- and this game does rely entirely on the economy, hence why you can get everything in the game by either spending money or playing the economy (or exploiting), but you cannot get very much by simply playing…
  • I laugh at people saying DCs are the ones complaining- we now get free groups, heck, we can probably swindle people with the threat of leaving a group as DCs become non existant, if anything this is the best news ever for us. It's everyone else that should be pissed- goodbye one hour queues, hello 4 hour queues. Enjoy…
  • But, WoW did it, and they did it in WotLK, which is the xpac which everyone agrees is when WoW began to really become good. So of course Cryptic has to do it- it's a good idea, and it'll be good, and you're all just jelly.
  • So what? PvPers don't want to PvE- yet the best PvP gear and enchants are obtainable only through PvE, the PvP gear isn't even close for that matter. Face it- Cryptic doesn't actually care what the customer wants here. Also, once one side in Gauntlegrym starts to win constantly, expect paid faction transfers for 2000 zen.
  • So, basically, the argument of people here is... since this has been said hundreds of times by other people... it's not an issue? Good to know your position is one of pure logic. Or are you supporting Cryptic for not bothering to address so many gaping issues with their dungeon crawls after an entire month of this being an…
  • They made a game where you can sell all gear, and where everything relies on buying/selling AD, as there is no grind beyond that one. The game is made for ninja looters and exploiters- there is nothing you can get by actually doing dungeons, that you can't get faster by exploiting, or legitimately playing the auction…
  • Wow the amount of fanboi butthurt- this game still got far more praise than it deserves. Let's take a look at what the game is- everything revolves around making AD in order to trade for zen/purchase items off the AH or the AD store (things that are vital- such as the cat/ioun stone, a tier 3 mount, enchantments/wards, t2…
  • You can do professions throughout the day though, you only have to invoke once a day... and when you consider- a, in a year you'll be able to sell an Angel for massive dough. b, every week you might get a blue ward. c, you're also getting thousands of AD a day- I think logging into every character once a day is worth the…
  • Good thing exploiters have had no effect on the average player.
  • And now the f2p scrubs want tech support. When will they stop whining?
  • I like how exploiters pretty much shout 'I earned my 200 million AD and twenty level 60s in a day' on the forums. Grats btw.
  • Look at what gamers are saying outside of this forum- this game makes SWTOR look like the biggest success of the decade. And it's entirely due to the unbelievable amount of damage exploiting has done. Thing is- Cryptic let this happen. They ignored alpha tester warnings. They ignored what has happened in other mmos-…
  • Game is pay to win, #dealwithit
  • F2P always use cheap methods to get money- the main thing is going to be consumables. I'm more worried about gear though. SWTOR for example goes f2p tomorrow. Not only do you have to pay to access operations, and WZ/FP past the 3rd per week- thus limiting the speed at which you can gain gear VASTLY and putting top gear in…
  • Nobody said anything about making all classes similar to each other. And the reason druids and pallies became the ultra class in WoW was because ONLY they could have multiple roles- you say making all classes capable of two roles it what made WoW all about pallies, when the exact opposite is true by your exact reasoning-…
  • Easy to use, highly customizable foundry is all I ask for- if I can jump in and find the tools as easy to use as playing the game itself, that'll probably keep me entertained far longer than anything else.
  • Goblins, I wanna be a goblin. Genasi would be another thing I'd be interested in- partly because it's essentially four races, I've always liked elementals so an elementalish race seems awesome to me. Not so much a want- but with tieflings already in, I almost expect aasimar to make it in too.
  • Fair enough, at least with both 'contests' and 'events', there will be something for people who don't like queues like you, and people who are ok with them like me- so it would seem PWE it taking both our demographics into consideration, which I think is a good thing.
  • Seems reasonable and common practice , and I'm not disputing that. I'm merely saying that by having a their own currency be purchasable like this- people will spend money with PWE because it's safe, over buying those same things from a 3rd party, which is why I think it should actually reduce botting/farming, etc... Though…
  • Well, if you do not like events, you do not have to do them- do contests instead which sound to be more like PQs in WAR or rifts in... you know. Unlike most examples in games where the response to 'you do not have to do it if you do not want to' is 'well there is no content for someone who doesn't want that', they are…
  • Hmm, I honestly don't know if I'd play this on ps3 or pc if it came to console. I've always preferred console for almost everything but for mmos kb/mouse seem best since it lets you turn so much faster. Unless there's a fixed turn speed KB/mouse simply has a large advantage. If there's a low number of skills though- you…
  • Just read the thing on events- I like that. You queue up, get ported to the event, do it, then port back and keep questing. Short, simple, doesn't take me out of my way, and whether the queue is long or short I can keep on doing what I was doing while I wait. I like that they have open world events, 'contests' as they say,…
  • I sure hope it's nothing like GW2. Their instance grouping is downright terrible, while their world grouping is at best mediocre. Rift's method was far superior, I'd even say one of the best open world grouping systems. GW2 didn't make it feel like a group effort at all- it made it feel like you were in a mess with a bunch…
