In that matter I dare to say "we" as players we feel like NcWest fail the exam...Its like they dont fight enough for us to have best content, fastest update, best promo,etc...and trust me its frustrating to see NcWest fail in getting PN, fail to give us interesting events, fail to answer our questions when we need help, fail and fail anf fail again. Ppl are tired of this sharade...we want to see that they asume somehow their activity. @Conguero@Neutron You are of course absolutely right. And what is even worse is that NCWest does not only fail its customers, but they are also shooting themselves in the foot. When you look through the threads on the Innova forum you can see how DIL, Neutron's counterpart in Moscow, gets asked about dubious points by players, and, in trying to find an answer, is familiarizing himself even more with the new update, being warned of upcoming problems and, through the interaction with the player base, improving the final patch notes.

Bean Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Good Job NC Soft! After you destroyed every opportunity that "new" players had to start play the game (I am not talking about doing Kamaloka, but for opportunity to get few gears to be able to stand alive in sieges without selling their home), now you are killing the game even more, making most of the player mad with this new "anti-cheat" programm. I understand that you are incapable of getting new player, but at least keep the player that you already have. I already quitted, after i got bankrupt with awesomes reward from last event , not to mention the one with agathion, circlets of power and the cloak event. I am done with you, your staff and all the servers owned by you, that mean you wont get a single $ from me (the only thing you care about)!!!

NCWest, on the other hand, is a case study in how not to run a business It's more alarming that they have no idea about game mechanics, banning people for in-game content such as pvp, preferable treatment of one clan over any other member. Ofc there were problems in the past, i remember Juji and Delvish, BornInHell, Troy and other prominent members testing patch notes in GM arena and other areas, making sure that everything works properly; communicating with players in a timely manner and with sentences that made sense, rather than posting community guidelines for no apparent reason; , Juji trying to deal with bots through the corporate ranking, when he was blatantly denied and told who they are willing and not to ban. As for Russian GMs, they have a different type of problems there, such as breaking GM rules for players that they used to play in the past with, gifting unattainable items, and rerolling in-game items. One thing Innova does really well is community management, they have in-game GMs and supporting members that can swiftly get a hold of them if needed. When was the last time GMs showed up in the game for anything outside transforming people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nautilus Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 @Conguero@Neutron You guys not postponing upcoming update tomorrow right? Approximately, 12 hours before the update, you still don't have the patch note yet. Little worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZooArcher Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Lol @ when patch notes comes out... They either hiding the fact someone (char wise) is getting nerfd..or that they are removing more items... Possibly removing free r99 sets and now including them in a NCstore promo event to make people spend money if they want to even get it...for only $400 you could have the chance to get a +0 to +10 r99 set clean, and use this to explore the new world of L2... For an additional 99% APR, NCsoft will offer a new credit card to spend soley on the game.. you could one day be a pve destoryer or pvp master.. Just a thought..

L2 Team Conguero Posted August 22, 2018 Author L2 Team Share Posted August 22, 2018 19 hours ago, Yidao said: Conguero, no offense, but you don't play the game and do not understand what is in those patch notes. Like for example in your Systems Preview you did mention the new Fish Stews, but you omitted the rather important information that the old Fish Stews will be disabled tomorrow and that people should only buy as many Stews as they can consume until the update. Wouldn't it be better if somebody from the QA Department compiled the patch notes? I didn't want to get into the nuts and bolts of this because the bottom line is that we should be releasing patch notes earlier. This isn't acceptable and I've been letting the appropriate people over here know that. However, since a lot of assumptions are being made about this process or why the notes have been so delayed, I'll clarify that the production and QA teams DO compile our patch notes and verify the changes found in the builds we receive from HQ. That's not my role. My involvement is primarily to do a formatting, grammar, and spelling sweep for consistency, as well as try to clarify any confusing wording. I've been stressing the urgency of getting patch notes out for some time now, but there are certain steps that just can't be done out of order. No one was dropping the ball in this process. Instead, we have to reassess the process entirely for future updates. It became increasingly clear last week that I wouldn't receive the patch notes to begin my editorial pass until yesterday. What I didn't know when I started that process yesterday—and when I promised you all I'd have the notes posted by the end of the day—was that there were a few key changes that still needed to be more thoroughly verified, so that we could ensure that they are properly and comprehensively documented in the notes. Ultimately that process needed to be resumed this morning as members of other teams returned to work. Once that information was verified I updated the notes and sent them back to producers for a final review, and I requested for a green light to post them. That's where we currently stand. Again, I do apologize for this delay. It's absolutely understandable that everyone's patience has been beyond tested here. Folks on our end have been working long, stressful hours in an effort to release a solid update, and that's what we're committed to doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dargor Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 @Conguero Personally, I don't care who's to blame for those delays and I don't care to point fingers to you or whoever else might be involved in this. The fact remains that for yet another time we are mere hours away from an update and there's only speculation from outside sources. We players need to know about the changes and plan ahead and we only have rumors to work with. At this point, even if you released the patch notes it might already be too late to do anything about it. My apologies for the aggressive tone, I've been holding back for some time now and this situation has been increasingly frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
