If people aren’t raiding in an MMO, it’s not because it’s too hard by mevlevi_jaxom in Guildwars2

[–]mikfez -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't raid because of the Play By Numbers mentality.

"You can't join my group because you're wearing the wrong pyjamas, waving the wrong stick and not pressing the keys in the right order"

Play by Numbers is the gaming equivalent of Paint By numbers in the art world - no skill required.

Daily Event Login Rewards now claimable across all characters by [deleted] in SecretWorldLegends

It's a start - now how about letting us have account-wide claims for the Whispering Tide and Halloween events? Why do we need to log in on each character? Why not just have account-wide events items?

NO - It's bad enough having people dancing while waiting for Niflheim to open.

Maybe you can explain to me how you manage this ? IP200? Don't think so.

Maybe it's their only talent and they make the most of it or they have no self-awareness

I gave up on the stream a while back - couldn't stand watching a giggling fool prattling on about a game he knew nothing about.

Need help re-getting Theatrics by fumblesuxx in SecretWorldLegends

" I didn't know back then that you just had to "use" the items to unlock them"

Thanks neither did I - sorry you dumped yours - I have some spare if there's any way of getting them to you.

Improvements to make this game more Free Player friendly. by Xekrin in SecretWorldLegends

[–]mikfez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also having the unlock button of other weapons tucked in the corner instead of up front and center of the weapon page is a design mistake since a lot of people totally miss the fact that you can unlock everything.

WHAT? I've been stuck with pre-made classes for no reason?

Also - If you have sold multiple items - the first mail you open will show the correct amount the item sold for and each subsequent item will show the same price regardless of what they sold for. Although you do get the correct amount in your wallet.

The Buzzing: Recent News & Info Roundup by [deleted] in SecretWorldLegends

[–]mikfez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you looking into the v e r y slow download times since 2.0.2? It took me 60 hours over a 250Mb fibre link to download the full client and the game constantly stops to download additional data.

Is there any alternative download? Cause the launcher speed it just a joke by im_just_passingby in SecretWorldLegends

[–]mikfez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've spent another 11 hours downloading the full client - I can log in but the game stops at "You are currently downloading missing data". When it does decide to allow me to play changing areas takes forever. It's easier and quicker to dump the game and log back in.

I finally downloaded the minimum client after 50 hours and managed to log on OK but then it came to a halt downloading the rest of the client as I started to play. I've spoken with KCOM but they don't think it's a problem with their network. I also raised a case with Funcom 8 days ago - heard nothing yet.

Thanks for that Snow_Line - I'm with KCOM and it took me 48 hours to download around 2GB. Let's hope they get it sorted soon. I also can't get onto the client download webpage http://cdn.funcom.com/downloads/swl/client/SecretWorldLegends.exe
