This is my biggest fear for launch. I really really do not like the fact that Trion has so little control over the code. Wildstar, for all its flaws, has a very communicative dev team and they've moved quick over the last few weeks to fix some critical issues. My fear is that Trion will be 100 percent at the mercy of XLGames to patch exploits/bugs, and for some issues, minutes/hours matter for how much damage is done...
Yes, the spam was horrible. Every couple seconds, plus they like to take up half a page adding ******************** to every damn line. It seems like it's much better since yesterday, only seen a couple.
I easily sold gold via D2JSP/paypal when I decided I was done with alpha. Someone gave me $100 for 300 gold. Lol.
Well, look at D2JSP. Every single time I've transacted on that site, the person has bought the forum gold on the spot from the site owner then sent it to me. 1 AA Gold --> 15 FG is common exchange rate, or, 100 AA gold --> 1500 FG --> $50. Cutting D2jsp out of that transaction (going direct paypal seller/buyer) gets you banned from d2jsp on the spot, but I'm sure people are doing it.
I don't see how people could even afford to buy gold in this game, it goes so quick.
I'm already burnt out on ArcheAge and I've never even played it. I was hyped about this game.... 5 years ago. Now I ready about it and think, "wow, is this game still around? It's going to be washed up before it even hits the market. They really fucked up on that front.
probably right, but ill still play the shit out of it, unless this and the division collide with releases then ill be playing this a fair amount.
yeah I kinda got lucky and had some gold on the account I was lent so I was able to start with a small farm of cows, and grow into a large for my income, ill probably roll on the new beta server or whatever to test out the land grab and see whats worth growing early for some profit, vitality is always on this kind of thing! but he dosent share his sekreTS
The thing is, this game doesn't have legs like WoW does. It's already been a 1 year game in two markets and the rate of content production from KR is glacial. I feel like most people are going to play this hardcore, level to 50 in a few chars, get their farm/house, some decent gear, a nice boat, touch some of the end-game PVE, do some arenas, dabble in piracy etc and then realize they've done everything. If people do this in alpha I dunno if they'll do it again in release.
It's going to be interesting how long people keep playing this game once they hit 50 and realize that there really isn't that much to do. I honestly am on the fence right now about whether or not I am even going to play the game at launch. In my limited alpha playtime I have done everything that I wanted to do in the game (With the exception of castle sieges) and there is no new content on the forseeable horizon. Other than playing the game with friends, there really is no draw to playing through AA again once you have done it.
