Event: Discover the sentence and your server wins!


  • And having 2x drop in MCHM does not mean cheaper Regent, just means more Regent for those that can run it to sell later, considering how expensive our Regent are in EU, you think those that can run it would drop the price :) wishful thinking.


    That's also what I thought with the precursor event in GW2(I kept my drop and sold later -because- the price drop by more than 50%). Regent has been losing value since ks20 release. Partially because of ks20, partially because most ppl who wanted regent bought it already. Everybody I know who runs mc hm is -desperate- to sell them. There is no real later either, because of the next dungeons which'll make it obsolete.

  • I agree with all your points Trabant, unfortunately no one from GF will even read your feedback, as this company is known for not caring about their customers. Their business model is to acquire a new title, and make some money out of pure hype, then sustain the said game with minimal effort - for example no support, crappy servers, etc.


    Last I heard they planned to jump to Blade and Soul, even donated money for faster localisation for EU market, so that's probably the next game they're gonna ruin. Luckily NCSOFT didn't decide to give them the publishing rights for B&S just yet. :)

    In my post in the Service Error thread I've stated that we would not get anything for those crashes/errors/whatever. Why? Cause I know how f-forge works in other games. And in other games where f-forge incompetency was causing bugs/error/crashes they all the time used ToS as a way to say to us "players stfu, we're not going to give you anything" (ergo, they just didn't write anything, the cm only post where "sorry folks, keep paying and we might give you a way to play") so I was prepared to see this in Tera and wasn't expecting such an act of mercy from them. But when they, surprisingly are giving something for their lack of skill, they are one more time screwing with other players aside those who can go mchm. And sadly, you still do not understand that.


    And as far as anemsalok posts in that closed thread where all related to those two game crashes. Not 2x on LoT. And if you where in the game around 14:00 27th of July there where an ingame notice from Atmorph stating that "the LoT 2x drop should be working, drop rate will be online for 24h", so to 14:00 28th of July. So their work/compensation for LoT drop was done. So you're clearly wrong about this mchm compensation being in the place of LoT failed event. They just used that sentence event to look "good, right, ok" to players for "caring, reading feedback, giving something for those recent fails". But some of players won't be tricked by thier fake charm.


    As for regent, the weapon for me is now 150k-180k on broker. Right, I'm going to see it quickly drop to 75-90k. Mhm, for sure.


  • That's the whole idea behind ToS. They make sure they can't be held responsible for random stuff. While I do find it somewhat unfair(most service providers promise an uptime of 95-99% and you are compensated for any maint outside that), we did agree to it.


    However, that didn't work. And the compensation is purely about the lot fiasco. Because they have nothing else to compensate us for(heck, we could even argue if they even needed to compensate us at all since it is an event and stuff).


    Considering mc hm seems to be crashing because of lot(which is smth I already pointed out...maybe if you spent some time reading my posts...), it's unlikely. But if the event had actually worked just fine, there would've been a noticeable enough drop in regent prices. It's basic game economy which you clearly don;t understand since you compared regent to mes.

  • VoodoAngel, the way I interpret the official announcement, they are compensating for the past problems, which includes the emergency maintenance and loging problems that affects everyone, by offering 2x drops to MC HM.


    That doesn't seem fair to those who are not level 60, and yet faced the same problems.

  • so i do usually 4-6 MCHMs a day, for cash / quills / fun
    now this event should give more drops..


    and we cant even do a propper run ?
    high risk to get stuck in any dungeon ?


    cant even do my daily runs. please turn that "event" off. would be much better without it.

    You don't read my posts - I've pointed out that if it's true that mchm is unplayable basing on you're words, then we should just applaud to f-forge for it. I can't test it (lot, maybe other instances too) since I'm not even near my pc, I knew that "double lag-fest" would arise so I took a weekend off from Tera. It's f-forge, who am I kidding, if they would not fail at this then this weekend should be noted and celebrated each year from now.


    As for the game economy, I don't know/care/have time to even look at it. And I don't plan to even think about the benefits of "o yeah, 2x drop on xx will make yy item -% cheaper on broker". I have better things to do. That's why I really don't care if regent price will now drop down. I will take your optimism -50%, still I'm like 50k gold too poor for it. And when I will acquire that 50k, the price will be back up to the original ~150k. So still too poor of it. I will benefit from this unplayable double drop like hell. Of course I'm assuming we, as EU won't get the new gear patch quickly (f-forge and quick haha), since with it most prices will drop but not because of this event and the new items would have cosmic prices. And I didn't "compare regent to mes", but since you don't read (or understand, don't care) what I write thats (sadly) understandable. I only mentioned that cause of ET/LoT 2x drop the price of MES didn't drastically drop (like even by 10%), even for a moment. And that was in the response of that GW event you mentioned. And I don't care that "regent is 1 buy and off, MES is like and never ending well in case of necesity for all".


    But I'm ending this discussion since we clearly won't find a compromise and no f-forge employee will ever read any of this (or maybe you're one? Since you know that this is "purely about the lot fail" as even cm's didn't post this secret info :P)

  • My character is again stuck inside LOT like several days ago.
    It is amazing how a simple 2x event turned to create much more problems than before.
    It proves that our servers can't handle an event like this,so just don't make them again please.
    Also is it so hard to implement an option on account management on main site to unstuck?So in cases like this we can unstuck our characters?


    Because of this i lost already 3 days of tera club and as customer i'm really disappointed from this.And i guess i even have all the rights to ask for a serious compensation and as me all the rest in my same situation.

  • Stuck too... 2 chars


    1 - Character: Ayakka


    Server: Killian


    Location: Sinestral Manor
    ---------------------------------


    2 - Character: Rakku


    Server: Killian


    Location: Celestial Hills


    Thx

  • Did the whole staff really leave after they activated the event? I haven't seen any response from any CM. You left your community alone. Really sad. Especailly this rather talkative new CM is too quiet now.

  • he cant say anything.


    "y, we have no idea what to do more"



    change servers...

  • just cancel this kind of events and give us some combinations to create scrolls with availability to increase drop rate(example: lucky charm)

  • After we had again a weekend with epic lags / stucking in lot sh*t like that. How about u do a server restart now? or u really will wait till tomorrow again ? its just ridiculous that u dont care about that....a lil example for how ur pathetic events work....was farmin with slayer in lot got stucked, switched to warri for leveling after a while i got a loading screen + crash logged in again. Now the funny thing : Warri was stucked outside now and slayer was unstuck srsly? whats that. Maybe u should finnaly get servers that ca handle the f2p stuff.....



  • But they already said thats "due to some technical limitations". That means no less that "we don't know what to do/how to do it". And they wisely/intentionally did this event on weekend (yeah, I know weekend = more players can play etc, but that would mean more request to the servers = bigger lag), but this way they can say that only the "required number of employees where at HQ in case of big problems (probably only a total server crash counts to it, and that would be fixed in about 10h)" so no one can respond to us, as cm are laying on the beach and they don't care that the event is mostly unplayable. They did their job at delivering us an "event", they didn't say that we would enjoy it/would participate in it/would benefit from it ;-) Thats the spirit f-forge.

  • thank you fayulorge for this fantastic event! the double droprate in mchm was such a great idea! also thanks for reacting to problems so fast! :lol:

  • Plz, Community manager, SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THIS LAGGING WEEK END !
    At least say a little sorry and admit that's you were not able to fix that, but SAY SOMETHING!!
