#911192 Something Fishy ?

Posted by Pardoux on 21 December 2014 - 03:59

 

Yes we do know that we will win 3 of the 4 new seasonals today...in fact i am 100% certain they will be in my guilds backpack when the titans is killed... :huh: do you even know how titan hunting works lol! Seeing that the titans are also on a near 100% spawn rate on the hour i will also be as daring to say they will all respawn within 24 hours of their deaths if not 2 or 3 times more. How's that for some witch craft :).

Suspected fraudulent activities are not to be posted and discussed by the general public. They belong in a ticket to the cows... I cannot believe a senior poster like you would even post this trash.

 

 

Titans being released is one thing, stating in advance that you will win them and have them available for purchase is another. No-one is guaranteed a titan win after all ...

 

The "suspected fraudulent activities are not to be be posted and discussed by the general public" part ? -  Players are entitled to discuss anything between themselves UNLESS it is ticketed - or unless specifically told not to by the cows.

 

But, I've made my point and I'm gonna leave it there, regardless of further comments from yourself, your guildies or other players. Anyone / Everyone can formulate their own opinions.

xxxxxxxx says: Selling the new +4 stam gain seasonal amulet send offers 2 more of the new epics to come later today <- Posted in the FS-Box earlier.

 

Now, this posts says 2 things to me ...

 

1. That they know they're going to win 2 more

 

and

 

2. That they know that 2 more will spawn today

 

Hmmm ..




#910826 Unable to login

Posted by Pardoux on 19 December 2014 - 20:52

We've figured out what the issue is and are fixing it now - I'll post again here once it's fully fixed.

 

I'll wait before I hunt then :)




#910552 24 hours added to offer?

Posted by Pardoux on 18 December 2014 - 22:15

Absolutely stupid!!! I have been waiting for my offer for some time now and you add 24 hours ... Ridiculous

 

I can see where you're coming from but I can see where they're coming from too (assuming that the extension is deliberate and not an accident).

 

I agree that, adding 24 hrs as soon as the timer expires is bad form - if they wanted to extend, they should have done it earlier.

 

But, adding the extra 24 hrs also means that those who get paid on fridays have the option of taking advantage of the offer

 

So, swings / roundabouts




#910251 Making Titan Hunting more Popular

Posted by Pardoux on 18 December 2014 - 03:05

I find it amusing how you can look past the numbers i just crunched and continue to incriminate :). Math confuses paradoux...Paradoux is paralyzed...Paradoux uses redirect :).

 

*off-topic*

 

At least I can spell my own name - try cut/paste next time ;)




#910246 Making Titan Hunting more Popular

Posted by Pardoux on 18 December 2014 - 02:58

I find it amusing that it's just members of one guild doing their best to "poo poo" the idea of "magic hunters" - all these comments and the only denials of it happening are sourced from 1 guild :)




#909749 Santa Claus joins FallenSword!?

Posted by Pardoux on 16 December 2014 - 09:20

Have any player asked to temporarily change their name in the past, with makeing a community event of it as a reason and not personal reasons? I don't think so! But it was expected some kinds would complain about it... :rolleyes:


 

 

 

You're splitting hairs here ... name changes have always been on the "never gonna happen" list. Temporary or permanent is irrelevant ..




#909720 Santa Claus joins FallenSword!?

Posted by Pardoux on 16 December 2014 - 05:53

Anything to get a few kicks in :) the ignorance stings. Its obviously not permanent for starters. He is just spreading Christmas cheer and the cows wanted to help him? The cows agreed for a reason maybe to help increase game activity or help retain new players etc...? If your still whining you need a reality check. What is he actually gaining here... nothing? You complain about low player base etc etc...and when someone tries to help, you instantly shoot them down haha. A few people whining aren't going to discourage.

 

Jeez, are you ever defensive ?

 

Have I said anything about his giving away the epics ? - NO

 

Am I disappointed that the cows have broken the "unbroken" rule about name changes ? - YES

 

(as are plenty of others, it seems .... )




#909694 Santa Claus joins FallenSword!?

Posted by Pardoux on 16 December 2014 - 03:23

Just to be the grinch here, I disapprove of this ...

 

Plenty of players have historically asked for a name change - and been categorically refused by the cows. Sometimes, these requests were just to fix an in-haste spelling mistake, but still denied. Same with spelling mistakes in guild names ...

 

Now that this can of worms has been opened, I hope name/guild changes that are just spelling mistake ones will be looked at favorably ?

 

(I still agree with refusing to change names to something completely different - for whatever reason that may be)




#909405 Double XP Event! 48h vs 72h

Posted by Pardoux on 14 December 2014 - 22:05

Obviously challenge for the player, not "PvPer" vs "Leveler" as so many would like to continue to divide players with labels.

 

So, explain this CHALLENGE ? - taking double XP is just making one side of the fence inflict more "harm" on the other side of the fence whilst an event specifically designed to increase XP is in effect. A challenge is, to me, something to be worked at, something you have to push yourself at - just taking twice the amount of xp that an already easy hit would be against someone hunting still is no challenge.

 

Pain as you like to call it equates to a challenge. You have already thrown in the towel claiming there will be a soft clear. I promise you hit the wrong players and you will lose 5 levels and try hitting someone who's global potted. You think it is so easy, but it ain't.

 

Oh, I fully understand that some players can lose 5 levels - I very rarely see a pvp'r do so however. And, of course it's easy to hit someone whilst they're in hunting mode - most hunting setups are primarily damage related, not defence or armor - so you don't need much to beat them.

 

You're simply afraid, afraid of losing xp(even a little) which is so easy to obtain. The problem should be how to you keep the xp! As most veteran players already know, ditch your gold and you should be safe from attack.

 

Of course players know how to minimise the risks, but a lot of players during this event probably won't run sacrifice and thus will be raking in a lot more gold than normal during their hunt. Personally, I'll be running the best sacrifice I can - to minimise my risk of being hit AND to get the maximum xp from it.

 

But then again so many just want to hit 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,r and log off. Just goes to show the ease with which xp is attained... and on top of it players continue to want it easier to play; double xp gained isn't enough, triple is still desired by some. This game will not survive with the same old boring "events" players can now ink in their calendars. Speaking of challenges, I'm challenging the developers to come up with something that excites players, and I'm talking about more than adding some uber skills!

 

This game will sink or swim from the actions of the developers - that's probably one of the few points you and I will ever agree on. BUT, the difference is, you see that action leading in 1 direction and I see it leading in another.

 

You think restoring PvP to the "halcyon" days of no limits lost on the bounty board and such will restore it - I think something like that would be the final nail in the coffin for  the game. Who will you pvp'rs hit when there's no-one left BUT you pvp'rs ?




#909384 Double XP Event! 48h vs 72h

Posted by Pardoux on 14 December 2014 - 19:51

Either way in this discussion is fine by me, although there should be more challenge added during this event by making the xp taken in direct PvP doubled

 

Who's the challenge for there ? - PvP'rs can beat any setup as it is, so doubling the xp taken is no challenge at all ? - just means double the "pain" for those hit and a soft-clear on the BB for most of those doing the hitting ?

 

I see no challenge there whatsover ...




#909346 Idea for new LE (s)

Posted by Pardoux on 14 December 2014 - 10:28

so the fastests and the big stamina banks will be in advantage..
not to mention possible scripting..

doesnt sound like a good idea...

 

 

How will the fastest be any advantage if they don't know where the LE is ? (which map, that is)

How will big stamina banks be an advantage, other than giving the OPTION for players to use stamina to sweep numerous maps ?

 

Scripting ? - let's not go there eh ? - it's all over the game  as it is ... using that as an "excuse / reason" to not add something new and potentially exciting is kinda self-defeating ..




#909183 Double XP Event! 48h vs 72h

Posted by Pardoux on 13 December 2014 - 14:35

Moving the double xp event on the 26th, when ppl will 100% be more free, as its christmas holiday, sounds better for me..

 

That seems a bad idea - because it then means one (or more) of the cows have to be available in case of problems - and they want to enjoy the xmas break too ya know ? ;)




#909058 New Skills / Enhancements

Posted by Pardoux on 12 December 2014 - 20:59

Can we start brainstorming now for the new buffs at Level 3000 ? ;)




#909056 Double XP Event! 48h vs 72h

Posted by Pardoux on 12 December 2014 - 20:49

Whatever happened to the idea of a "2xp" potion that was given out to players to use at their discretion - that worked, obviously, alongside all other xp boosting buffs / potions ?

 

I remember the idea of it being brought up a couple of years ago and deemed a great idea by everyone.

 

Not only did it remove any need for folk to have to hunt within a specific time frame or miss out but by its very nature of being a potion (and thus used whenever), it reduced the concentrated load over the otherwise specific event window ...

 

The potion idea  should be, IMO, looked at again :)
