  1. I personally think that the devs are trying to kill game so they can move on. Between horrible customer service to way way overpriced items... to events that are "Free" giving jack S**t for decent items. Or lame picture events that give +16 weapon with no add ons which wont do a damn thing against current weapon line ups +21/ dragon weps XD. The business moves Ncsoft is making for Lineage 2 is one of 2 things. Either the people running the show are incompetent or they're trying to cash out until major base of remaining players quit. I understand this game is pay to win, I have no problem spending money but when I'm having to drop more money in current game then over a year ago thats an issue. I just don't like spending my money and be getting very very little return back.

    So what are your guys thoughts? Do you Think they're just trying to cash out? Do you like their current business model? Or do you guys think they just dont know economics? Please share you're thoughts.

    Mixa is kinda right, don't think there's a law that forces them to show the rates. Besides you might find the rates in some other websites as they are mandatory in Korea. (at least the ones that involve paid items) 

    They could get in trouble for underage (gambling). Its technically considered gambling as Mixa has so eloquently put it. If someone got lawyers involved I'm sure they would have a hard time saying that it wasn't considered gambling lolol:D. I could be wrong though. Some companies are above the law you know lol xD.

    @Juji

    Why this imbalance soo great ????

    Top players (20 per server) are making 20-24b per day in isle of souls - stronghold and the rest ???

    They are buying everthing to box characters...  breaking market, prices rising A LOT.

    example:

    +7 elmore legendary cloak:  before = 15b       After: 30-35b

    +10 elmore legendary cloak: before = 25b      After: 70-100b

    +15 elmore legendary cloak: before = 75-120b      After: 250-380b

    don't you think about doing anything about it???

    20 players = 20-24b per day

    the rest: 50-300kk per day (what chance they have to buy something?)

    what balance is that??????

    Dude Juji doesn't care the game is unbalanced. These people know what they're doing to make money. Look at dragon weapons for example. Only people with (money)can farm the claws to make better weapons etc. Do you think any random can go and do that? Answer is no. These people are in the business of making money. Which they're not to smart because if they destroy the game then people who bought all these items will get bored and leave game because competition will not be there(Due to unbalanced issue). So its a quick cash grab to cash out. I would be curious to see the metrics of the business model they have. It's probably done by some crack head with an etch a sketch( who needs more money to get his fix lol). Just one of those things that no one can do anything about. Only thing you can do is vote with your wallet and stop spending money on the game then they just might get the message.

    Gm, I know that the exalted quest has undergone several changes and I am grateful for that, but it is not enough.

    The items she gives are weak enough to be able to play the game in its essence. Can't improve? It is absurd that part 4, 5 and 6 only give skills.

    ABSURD. Please talk to the developers to review this. Thanks.

    They don't care. This company only cares about one thing $$$$$$. It sucks but its the truth :(

    Of course. Having specific detailed information is never a bad thing. Especially for perennial promotions that we get every year.

    But I don't see it as the big "gotcha" moment that others do. No, usually the "tell" is when you look at the price of the offerings -- and sometimes the quantity -- and notice that we're being charged more than the previous year event and getting less. :D

    I guess either way "WE" the players are getting screwed lol:D

    Funny thing about human nature. There are some who want to know the enchant odds. There are others who don't.

    I suspect telling the Lineage II player base that something can't be done, or is nearly impossible to do, will only encourage them to try anyway. Many will fail in these events, as they always have. But just one success more often than not proves to be a guiding beacon...not a warning light.

    No doubt, knowing that an enchant has an extremely low rate of success will affect NCSoft's bottom line for a given promotion. People may not buy as many items.

    But the assumption here is that everyone has the same number of opportunities to enchant something, which they clearly do not. There are top enchanters in game who get handed tons of items to enchant for free from their fellow mates. Those are the individuals that will have the successes. They will be the ones whose clans will grow in power because they've had multiple chances to succeed. And they'll be the powerful foes with all the top gear that will lord over the servers, despite complaints from the lesser geared masses. 

    By all means, sure, tell us the enchant odds. But don't be surprised if those little quirks in human nature manifest to drive sales anyway, no matter how impossible an enchant may be.

    I get your point of view but it would be nice to know to see if NCsoft is messing with enchant rates to sell more items or not. It would give them more accountability. reason being is it seems that with every new event that comes out the success rates have dropped even more but there is not evidence of this due to we do not have a base line % rate. I believe they're are withholding this info to make more money off of players forcing them to buy even more items to enchant or upgrade items. Like you said it doesn't stop people but at least people would know the odds before dropping serious cash.  

  7. Do you guys agree? I feel like we're all wasting money on different events because they're not being honest with us. I mean why do other countries get success rates for items and we don't? This relates to every event. My honest opinion is I think they wont do it ever because once people see how low they are.... No one would really buy S***. Tell me your thoughts.

    Tickets are answered within 24hrs. On weekends and in state of emergency it may take up to a week.

    I understand but with as much money as we the players throw at this game my expectations is they at least can work from home and support. They'll take players money in seconds but not support players during this time as well? Just seems to be a failure on their part.

  9. So thought it would be fun to post how much money we all lost playing this game. I know the game has unfair enchant rates etc etc but for fun, post how much money this company has taken from you :)

     

    To date I'm at $23,959 usd Since 2009 . Which is not as much as some, but please share :P

    We all understand that they are making changes to improve the server and see the problems of latency, but many of us lose runes, cake, weapons, equipment with time or the possibility of making instances, in which the ADM of the service should at least give buff or restore the items or lost time maybe put a patch event as a free network to compensate for what happened, unfortunately you only pay attention and special care to the classic servers.


    ATTE DADDYYANKEE

    THIS ^. But NCsoft is a bunch of scamming cheapskates. They only care about saving face and rarely do whats right by the paying customers.

    Welp fail again? No one i know can log into server due to heavy number Queuing. You guys lowered the number of people allowed on the server instead of update your hardware it seems.... This will cost you customers in the long run... Sad.....

    it's set at 7 atm see Juji's post but not that that actually helped solving the delay issue..

    they need to either upscale/replace their hardware or turn off the server side scripts like tracking the xp gained / manner mode etc. or just roll back the whole damn chilada

    Its not like they dont have enough of our money to upgrade their lineage........
