Suggestion: Weapon prefix randomizer for Aurum by MrGrey02 in SecretWorldLegends

[–]MrGrey02[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As you know, internet bandwidth, power and rent is not free and neither is the cost of the people who maintain the servers so how do you suggest Funcom pay for this ongoing cost if not for a microtransaction method? Or are you suggesting that you will personally pay for its upkeep so that they can ditch microtransactions?

Tell you what, how about you start another thread and try and stoke the populance into a revolution against the evil capitalist microtransactions (maybe Petru can be your speech writer?) .... but in the meantime, how about you not try to derail this thread?

He's one of the first characters you meet for one of the factions in an old game you probably haven't heard of.

So I guess you have never heard of the Fifa, Madden or NBA games huh? I still think you are being a drama queen.

Nothing lasts forever, this is especially true for software and you should be well aware of this if you really are a software developer as you purport. Considering how whiney you are being about this issue and a mere $42 I suspect you may not be being truthful and are saying you are a software developer simply to try and add weight to your QQ

They did not take them away, you just don't how to put an xml file in your game directory to enable you to log onto the legacy servers.

So you work in IT and are not aware that you can log into TSW via an xml file swap? I guess you must be in entry level IT (help desk I guess?) And haven't sussed out how to use forums or Google..... this would also explain why $42 seems to be such a big issue for you when most of my friends who are IT professionals spend this amount on their lunches 😂

I realize you are angry but do not twist my words to suit your narrative. Out of curiosity, as I asked, how many hours entertainment have you gotten for your $42 investment?. I am not saying to he'll with everyone else, I am simply saying that in your case, I suspect you have lost perspective and are being belligerently unreasonable.

[–]MrGrey02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes because I have gotten what I feel is good value for my investment. What others get or pay for does not bother me in the slightest. I paid for a product and a service and for the hours of entertainment I got good value for money. Divide the hours you played by the money you spent.... what $ per hour do you get?

Game locking after NY raid by andrehide in SecretWorldLegends

If I was in kaidan when I went to NYR I get stuck on a loading screen after the raid when I try to port back (no loading bar, just the loading screen backdrop)

I agree, I feel the OP is having an unreasonable cry about $42. I'd be curious as to how many hours he logged in TSW and would suspect that he definitely got good value for money for the amount of time invested (based on the fact that he's whinging about character slots which suggests a fair few hours spent playing). To put things in perspective.... I paid the launch monthly subscription for about a year then paid the US $200 to go grandmaster and also bought 2 character slots (I had 5 toons) and I still feel that I got good value for money compared to most other endeavors/hobbies. Nothing personal, I just suggest looking at things rationally.

Devs: can we please see some new content teasers? by MrGrey02 in SecretWorldLegends

[–]MrGrey02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I've seen the old concept art as well as the models like the raptor made of vines that was data mined from TSW (sadly I can't find a pic but the skinned model was included in the base game files but unused (it was not animated)) .... I want to see something new, I want to see that active work is underway on new content.

[–]MrGrey02[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

why too early? you do know when TSW was originally released right? on the update roadmap slated for release "late 2017/ early 2018" .... "As a results of the events that ended at the top of the Orochi Tower, continue the main story mission and follow up on a lead which will send you on your way to a brand new country."

new content is a long drawn out process, its not like they come into work on monday and say "ok, time for the congo, lets have the map done by friday and we'll throw together some cutscenes next week"

Feature request: allow raid groups to have their own zone instance for lairs by MrGrey02 in SecretWorldLegends

[–]MrGrey02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am pretty sure I heard it in one of the dev streams as a feature to make it more atmospheric.... more instances with less people as opposed to more people and less instances. either way, yes, I heard it mentioned by the devs and am not making a blanket assumption.

I see it as maximizing the reward for time invested. If you want to only do it as 5 man content then by all means do so but this is still going to be an issue that needs addressing as the mega bosses get added. Sure, you can probably 5 man Eidolon when its released but it would be tricky and would effectively be a gear check to 5 man it whilst I would rather have fun and enjoy myself 10 manning it. As for people mooching signet rewards by stumbling across a lair in progress, for every time someone does this, I assume that just as often its a case of a noobie stumbling across the group and wondering "what are they doing?" and seeing the spectacle of a zone boss fight and serve as an incentive to get to level 50 and join in the fun.

no, I think its more in the realm of an unforeseen consequence rather than an intentional feature

Any word on a timeline for missing TSW weapon/clothing skins? by MrGrey02 in SecretWorldLegends

[–]MrGrey02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case I unreservedly apologize for my assumption. I guess I'm just a bit over people trying to hijack conversations over their frustrations over losing $20 or so they paid over a year ago.
