Because a lot of these changes were recent, for one. When I started playing Alpha in mid-June, we didn't know that all accounts (Patron and Free) would start with only 2 character slots. And bag/bank slots were purchased with gold, not cash shop expansion tickets. Just to give a few examples...

The vast majority of complaints about the cash shop have nothing to do with the prices. The various founder's packs come with a bundle of credits, in addition to the alpha/beta access, headstart, 1-3 months of Patron status, and the cash shop items. Basically, you have no idea what the fuck...

The koreans idea of a raid boss is to just stick a mob in the open world, make it large, and give it a couple million hp.

No one plays AA for the PVE. No one who plays AA cares about the PVE. It's just something you do to get xp to level your trees. People keep trying the game and posting shit about the PVE. Like they are surprised. Have you read anything anywhere that says the PVE in AA is good? It's easy, it's...

It was in the Alpha section, which they took down for good yesterday. The line was quoted in two different threads that are still accessible. ArcheAge Open Beta Marketplace Changes - Page 14 Four character's per server! Confirmed! - Page 9

Reading through some of the shitstorm on the official forums, and came across this quote from Scapes, responding to someone asking about labor pot CD. Originally Posted by Scapes ArcheAge does not have the technology to support account-based cooldowns at this time. We'll monitor potion use...

Servers lasted for a whole 10 minutes before crashing. Can't wait for launch.

They must have fixed it, would be insane otherwise. I guess 6k extra labor a day is better than 12k.

More patchy goodness. yeah! /sarcasm MARKETPLACE * With our crafters in mind, all crafted items have been removed: Eco-Friendly Fuel and Shatigon's Sandglasses. * Some costumes have been temporarily removed such as the swimsuits. * Purchasable mounts have had their speeds normalized as...

Yes, with labor pots. If they fix the CD to be per account, as they say it's supposed to be, that won't be happening. Also, afk kick timer, depending on how hard that is to get around. And the Illustrious tier has to proc Volcano. And that's if it's equal at Mag, I don't think it is, but I can't...

No, my friend, you are underestimating just how high up the tiers of crafted bows you have to go before you can equal the tier 1 Hasla bow, which is not gated. The time doesn't matter all that much, it's a daily. You can do Crimson in 20 minutes, sure. And then buy some enchants with your...

I never used any of the Hasla weapons except for the bow, and it's streets ahead of any crafted bows we're gonna see for a good long while. And it's free. 3k honor a day is nothing. Have you forgotten the prices of honor gear? The rented weapons, all the enchants etc? The enchants that can...

It is kinda a huge deal to increase it by a factor of 10. Then there's the honor rift nerf as well. And the Hasla weapon upgrade cockblock.They're making some really stupid, untested decisions on the fly, and it's going to bite them in the ass. Think about it. You can get to 50 in a few days...

Keep in mind, guys, this is only the first iteration of the patch notes. After OB starts tomorrow and players start letting Trion know about various undocumented changes, I'm sure those notes will be edited. With the usual excuses.

Here's the latest epic fai- I mean, Patch Notes. Here ya go. ArcheAge Version 1.2 Build 4.7: Patch Notes

It's the information that's ugly, not the spreadsheet format. Some things should never see the light of day.

I thought the same thing when I first learned about it, and still feel that way. You should never restrict a player's ability to play, especially a paying customer. LP exists as a control for the economy, but since 1.2 it's been pretty easy to ignore, between the bug that doubled labor regen...

Yeah, forgot about that. But the main thing it's good for is leveling the rest of your trees, and you need so much xp for that, it's hardly noticeable.

Can't post items on the AH, but you can pay a bit of cash for the ability to do so without having Patron status. And, unless it changes for release, less LP regen while online, none while offline. Also, while you can't own land, you can still farm. Either on farms owned by others that are set...

FTFY. And I agree with the above. Give Bond his own thread for his fucking screenshot spam. This is the AA thread, not the "I have too much free time" thread.

My bad for posting before my morning caffeine, lol. Anyways, fuck no leashing on land as well. There's plenty of fucking ways to troll people without adding stupid shit like that.

Mobs on the ocean do leash, it's just a little buggy. If you are on the wheel/radar/cannon you need to let go in order for them to leash when they are supposed to.

Everything you've heard about thunderstruck trees is rumor/myth/lies. There's a flat percentage chance dictated by tree type. That's all.

Cash shop items on the AH are super cheap because the vast majority of them are being sold by gold sellers. They take the credits from all those hacked/fraudulent accounts. Don't expect those items to be that cheap come live. The mount you buy on Mirage Isle can be upgraded, the others can't...

If it wasn't paused, your taxes would have been overdue, not due.

Patrons still accumulate labor while offline, so it probably calculates when you log in. Tax time should be unnaffected, just like last CB.

Worth more to who? Whoever turns a pack in there? Then you're just giving the attackers even more reward. There is already a system that effects what a pack is worth at turn in, it just doesn't work very well and needs to be adjusted. Another problem is that the sea is pretty small, which...

Almost like? It's exactly like. This has been pretty obvious from the start, but to clear up any confusion they actually went over it in detail in a recent livestream. They collect their data and feedback, take it to their internal "design" team, discuss what would be the best changes to make...

This one is a little off, which is perfectly understandable. I understand English fine and I still have trouble interpreting what they mean most of the time. They really need to throw up a post after each livestream with simple bullet points of the actual information that was stated. Anyways...

It's kinda both. The tax increase on each property is rather small, but it increases for each property. I don't pay much attention to it, but I think it goes up like 5 for each property past 3? Something like that. Anyways, if you have like 7 properties and add one more, your tax increase alone...

It does now. Mobs only drop coinpurses and unidentified items now, which cost LP to open/identify. You can't even farm mobs for pelts anymore.

You can set up your drydock to build a ship pretty much anywhere in the water, as long as it's not super shallow. There's a good place on the coast of Villanelle, Torchfyre bay. Where the land juts out. There's a housing area there with the workbenches you need. they are like 50 meters from the...

The issue with needing lots of labor for things like opening money pouches and shit is something they're talking about with XL. While I agree on the one hand that not giving people in the beta test Patron status is kinda dumb, they do need to test out how the free-player restrictions actually...

The taxes do get steep pretty fast, but more farms means more income. I have 3 large, 3 small, 1 aqua on Alpha, plus 2 large, 1 small and 2 houses on Omega. It's easily doable right now, since labor pots are so cheap on the AH. Without that I'd prolly have to tone it down a bit. Plus 3 days of...

For ship battles, the cost of sandglass for repairs is a factor too. Come release, when there's a lot more going on in the sea, could be pretty costly. Prolly not huge, but at least it's something. Would probably be better if the repair time was longer than 10 minutes.

I'm fucking angry? What makes you think that? Because I fucking use the word fucking? Is that the fucking problem? I don't fucking understand why people always seem to jump to that fucking conclusion. It makes zero fucking sense. Fucking noob.

Yeah, if you wanna sit in town and be a carebear fucking douchebag who artificially inflates prices, you can make loads of gold. It will be slightly more difficult to get off the ground in AA due to the cross-server AH, and having to compete with even more douchebags, but it's doable. I like...

It's kind of irritating when doing those dangerous trade runs that the attacker has nothing to lose. When trying to take a load from say, Halcyona, in peacetime, people will just climb onto your boat and wait for you to sail out of the safe area. Because, why not? If they win they get your load...

It's not that huge of an accomplishment, especially post 1.2. There's grown shit that gives you shitloads of xp when you harvest it, just cost a bit of cash to make it, and you can level 3 trees at a time, since you don't have to worry about combat. I've heard you can max all trees in like a...

It varies. Yes. Farms of two different sizes, houses of various sizes, huge manors, etc. The item you use to claim the land decides how much you are claiming and what specifically is going to be built there. No. Yeah, that's kinda the point. This isn't player housing that you just decorate for...
