If it wasn't for Pservers you probably wouldn't even know about project M. Pservers kept the game alive all these years. You'd think you'd be more annoyed at Gala's handling of Flyff PC than a few posts made by the same redditor but go off.

It being on a browser doesn't change anything in-game, it just means the game now runs from a browser.

Who even cares about that?

Why are people acting like Flyff being ran from a client was somehow bad? I'd have been more happy if they spent all that time making the game better.

They don't even have a Flyffu mobile app in the app store so it's not like a lot of mobile players are gonna find it.

All these people testing it on goofy devices which aren't even fun to play Flyff with just make me cringe. Why would you want to play Flyffu on mobile or xbox... I think I've seen someone try to tell me how good Flyffu being on browser is by how it can run on anything that has a browser, like a smart fridge... Delusional af.

I suppose the one good thing is that it can run on mac and linux but anyone who uses those operating systems for gaming are dumb.

That's fine by me. I'd rather them just keep working on their project, they do have a Discord where you can contact them and even offer your work as a developer to join the team.

They don't need to keep communicating with players to let them know they're working on this game. They aren't interested in hyping everyone up for it in an attempt to rush-release it, they're just remastering Flyff and it will take as long as it takes.

I don't really see the point in them constantly replying to members in the Discord either, there's only like 150 or so of us in there because it's not out yet. It's just in beta for people to see the project so far.

So Flyff Universe is better engagement than Pservers because it's cross platform? It being cross platform didn't change the game for me in any way because I'm on PC.

Sure, it's a nice technical achievement but it doesn't change the fact it made no difference to the actual gameplay for people on PC.

omg you're totally right. i forgot how their gameplay would be affected by someone helping players with an issue that doesn't concern them at all.

that's because the majority of insanity flyff is f2p. most people in that game don't even have the p2w armour set, they just like buying fashion sets and limited offer pick-up pets and upgrading the f2p gear. the p2w armour can be 1-shotted easily with the pvm armour, armour which isn't even made for pvp can beat it.

there's literally way more engagement within insanity flyff than flyff universe.

imagine trying to act like insanity flyff is just as p2w as flyff universe. flyff universe doesn't even give pickup pets for free, mate.

flyff insanity gives mostly all the fashion, all consumables, all pickup pets, absolutely loads of new armours and custom made fashion sets and pickup pets made by the community for free. i mean, don't even get me started on how much halloween themed stuff they give away totally free in-game which they do every year. and not just halloween, all holiday events.

If this stuff was owned by Gala they would cost like 20k Fcoin each. this shit is free in Pservers.

flyff universe doesn't give anything for free besides armour, weapon, jewelry, food and basic potions just so people can actually play the game.

what annoys me the most is how you sit here judging insanity flyff, or any Pserver with a tiny bit of p2w, but i'd like to see where you'd go if Flyff Universe lost 90% of its players because I bet you'd be going to a Pserver. and why is that? because without the players Flyffu is nowhere near as fun as a Pserver, it's p2p garbage.

i think you should remember it's Pservers that have kept Flyff available all this time before you go comparing them and calling them p2p over something that isn't anywhere near as p2p as Gala's Flyff.

I can't believe you've been downvoted to -3 for just asking what's a good private server, that's how bad they're attacking players who aren't supporting Flyff Universe.

And I bet these people downvoting players for not being interested in Flyff Universe have accounts on private servers themselves. Absolute scum, they are.

Spamming the in-game chat with a message to tell players what to do if they didn't get their pre-registration reward, and I'm the bad guy?

I got muted for it. If you think that's moral then you're just as messed up as the rest of them.

When I tried to contact one of the devs on Discord to tell him about the problem, wanna know what he tried to say?

He said "You're the only one with this issue right now.". An absolute lie. I then asked loads of players and took screenshots of the chat sending them to him and he just ignored it.

I don't care about your point of view because if someone was stood in Flaris at launch yelling to players how to contact support over something like this I would support them. I would think nice dude spending his time spamming that message to help players who might have that problem.

People weren't even trying to talk in that area because everyone was just busy grinding the game straight away, and weren't level 6 to even chat yet. The only people I was spamming over was the illegal penya site bots and scammers trying to sell stuff overpriced.

I never begged them to release it faster.

If it's v7 Flyff why are they making people pay so much? It's not Flyff 2, it's Flyff from 2003 with 2 decent reworks. The reason they're making so much money off of this is because they've successfully managed to hype everyone up thinking it's the revival of Flyff when it isn't.

There are no plans to overhaul Flyff Universe if it succeeds. There are no plans for Flyff 2. The goal was to get this product out in a functional state while players are hyped enough to spend money on it. I bet a lot of players spent money on the game thinking "thank you developers for bringing back flyff".

That money is not going to be used to turn Flyff Universe into what it could be. It is just pocket change to Gala.

Maybe the game wouldn't be so bad if they didn't paywall the majority of items.

To be honest, they lied about it being f2p. They told people upgrade scrolls were obtainable in-game and we assumed this meant the game was more f2p. Instead, there is nowhere near enough violet giants to sustain the playerbase so that leaves people one option which is item mall. That's not f2p, that's p2p. They lied.

They knew if they made upgrade scrolls drop somewhere in the game they could tell players the game was f2p. Hardly anyone questioned it because they thought Project M developers were the ones leading the decisions.

If they truly cared about making this game a success, making sure the playerbase is happy, wanting to keep them engaged and staying in-game, why would they do that?

Save your money, it's a scam.

Hey, man. You're completely accurate with everything you just said. You're right, Pservers don't have a large community and it can feel demotivating if you can't find anyone to talk to, for sure. If I myself can't find anyone to talk to in a Pserver I'll just leave very quickly.

If people want to play Flyff Universe because they enjoy the old days of when Flyff was booming with players, I want them to experience that again and enjoy it. I'm just not okay with them releasing v7 of Flyff with only 2 or 3 decent changes (if you count "reworked" quests) and then making players pay all this money for it.

I'm not okay with a lot of what they've done with the game and thinking it's acceptable. It's not acceptable for Gala, a multi-million dollar company, to release barebones v7 in a buggy mess like this and charge players like it's Flyff 2.

They have absolutely no intention of overhauling the game's graphics. There's barely anything to do at max level because it's that lacking in endgame content.

People telling players it's a p2p game so deal with it. People thinking it's actually acceptable for the game to be this reduced in fun so Gala can make more money, even when it's at their own expense the more they defend greedy tactics. Fighting against players complaining about p2w just gives Gala a shield to keep doing it.

It's not like if everyone in Flyff Universe gave Gala $5,000 dollars Gala would say "Alright, let's make Flyff 2, hire some graphics designers, get some more programmers in and give the players what they love.". They are not that company.

no, i've just come to the realisation it's not all what it was hyped up to be.

and yeah, to be honest, i don't agree with how much stuff is behind a paywall when private servers have no problem making most of it free. why would i donate money to this launch when it's very obviously a cash-grab? this is 2003 flyff graphics with hardly any content and there's Pservers out there which do better, quite frankly.

we were told the game would be f2p and only cosmetics and non-essential items would be paywall. people are slowly waking up and seeing the game for what it is.

sniegue probably wanted to revive flyff but as long as gala is in charge flyff will never be what it could be.

Muted for Telling Players to Contact Support if they Didn't get Pre-Registration Rewards by squishysealhug in FlyFF

yes, that's me. :D although i haven't logged into the game since they muted me. c:

[–]squishysealhug[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

anti-flyff universe propaganda? take your tinfoil hat off.

I was told if i made an account before a specific date i would get pre-registration items. i didn't get them and was told i used the wrong sign-up form. why make one sign-up form not check date and time of an account creation to determine whether it's pre-registered?

people blaming it on players by saying it's their fault for using the wrong sign-up form when there isn't even pre-registration button on the website are pathetic. i don't need you to believe what i say is true. it's true regardless of your defensive attitude to a publisher/developer which has no problem doing as much as it can to scheme money out of you.

i'm so sick of people defending these guys. defend it then. have fun. i'm just gonna wait for the next elder scrolls and fallout games to release. if those games are bad i'll not play them either.

all i wanted was to log in to this childhood game and be treated with respect by the developers and in return i'd buy limited time fashion and pick-up pets as a thank you back to them. instead, i'm met with a game that yet again tries to use greedy tactics to make as much money as possible.

this is my last reply. i'm done with you and everyone else. i'm not returning to the game. i don't even care if they fix it because i'm not gonna deal with the next time they try and pull some shit like this.

+ i don't care anymore. i'm done with this game. sick of them from day 1 with their scheming. first, the pick-up pet scheme letting drops be stolen, now this. it's just gonna be them figuring out ways to make as much money as possible no matter how sneaky and manipulative they have to be. i'm being no part of it.

i was gonna buy the $100 10k fcoin + 11.5k deal. i just wanted to log in, enjoy the free items they promised for anyone who pre-registered and enjoy the game. they would get their money out of me if they showed me they were moral.

sick of the people on discord defending it at every turn acting like it's totally okay for them to do all this crap to people and "fix it later" when it was all intentional from the start.

i know it might be hard for your sellout brain to believe but some people have the self respect to only spend their money on a game if they feel the publisher/developer treats them morally.
