There are so many alternate ways that NC can make money. Let's be honest, that's what NC cares about, making money. You can bring on all the new content you want, but so long as the fundamentals are broken in the game, it's going to crash or stay low pop. I've been playing for over a year now, and while I do seriously love the game, enough is enough. We pay a subscription, we pay a premium, and we may even pay some more. How much more do you want from us NC? The few hundred of us. It's all inflated.

Hi Rownen (and also Tarzaned / the other GM that showed up in game the other day),
Really, really confused as to how you guys have started to reach out to the community more, but we still are having the exact same issues week to week that make people quit. Surely, somebody in that community discord is telling you guys the truth? If it hadn't been turned into a brand new PvP discord due to a lack of moderation, it would probably have more people like me in there that actually know what the hell is going on with your game.
How are we still having weeks in this game where all of our previous week's events end and we gain no new ones.
You realize that we are LOOKING for reasons to play the game, to log-in, but having zero drop rate padmas (have personally killed 6 padmas since event ended, 4 golds 0 eternals), zero drop rate BTHM (3 runs, 2 eternals throughout), and no pve buff (making all the tiamat groups that formed for the 2 weeks we did have it all break up because its much tougher without it) ensures that we have a consistently low population game. WHY should anybody choose to put their time into Aion when it has been proven over and over that your time is not valued?
I've had easily 30-40 players over the last 2 months come in and out of my legion (2nd most active on asmo side) and the complaints are always the same: why should I play a game where I'm not being rewarded for my time? Why are NCSoft so poor at communicating to us? And my personal favorite: did they really take all the drops out of the game? (YES, THEY STILL HAVEN'T FIXED THAT, @forum lurkers LOL)
It just shows an absolute disconnection to the status / population of your game when for the 7-8th time in the past few months, we have a week to week cycle where there is zero incentive for players to log in to the game besides to do their dailies. Give us SOMETHING. Flip a switch and turn the warg flight time buff on. What happens to all of this code / content that we are provided in the past, does it just *poof* and is unusable ever again? Or is it an issue of competency amongst those running the operation over here, as is the common conclusion of outsiders looking in.
Much love, hugs, and kisses,
#1 BG of Bunny Mafia, F-Tier Glad,
+1 with Wolfy. Some people do in fact have limited time to play. Also the reason I asked if they even run any statistics as to how many groups/people are actually clearing some of these instances? What happened to instances that were a little longer, but actually creative, and actually dropped items after all the effort? People are tired of wasting their time and effort to end up with nothing. People are tired of socketing gear to end up with nothing, and broke. I'm sure a good bunch also spend money for quna only to end up with... nothing. Come on, NC. The buffs and 100% drop rates are good. Make at least 75% drop rate as a norm? Give use something to be proud about after all the TIME and EFFORT.
We care. Please and thanks!

@Wissp @Roseae With this new manastone pass, may I suggest you make it more worth while and throw in bags of x100 ETERNAL Greater Supplements or even Eternal Felicitous Socketing so we don't keep dying inside because of all the manastone fails? And maybe allow more manastone drops in game instead of trying to get more out from our pockets?

Sounds reasonable to me for 6 high level enchant stones, which is how I read the offer.
The Siel exchange rate has jumped the past week it's down to 54quna per 1million kinah atm.
The Nezekan exchange rate has jumped the past week it's down to 122quna per 1million kinah atm.
L85 stones on Siel are around 2.5-3million kinah each, and on Nezekan they don't exist on the broker at all.
Sorry, but this is not an "exchange rate." This system is flawed as hell and it's becoming more and more apparent. You cannot base yourself off of those numbers and call it fair.
@Wissp At this point you guys are really pushing your limits. Your practices are becoming more and more abhorrent.

We are once again asking for your support... Please...
1.) Fix the drop rate.
2.) We need more green manastones. (I appreciate the log-in rewards, but we will naturally need white manastones of all levels to drop from the system to also craft them. Maybe introduce Felicitous Socketing again, if things are going to be THIS scarce?)
3.) Quna has caused more unbalance to the economy. (Maybe also consider dropping that Soul Sickness price...)
4.) We need more in-game avenues to make Kinah.
5.) Events are nice, yes, but there are too many items that just cause inventory bloat. We don't need any more bloat items...

Please.

These events are a band-aid on broken limbs.
And please stop adding event items that just cause more inventory bloat. We don't need any more bloat items...

Please, NC, we need more manastones! That drop rate needs to be increased. The failure rate is bad too!

If i'm not mistaken, It updates the following day because the margin for star officers gets smaller as you climb. So you basically surpass and knock some off within the ranks, however, considering we're not very many on one server, everyone who does get into star-officer will likely stay there because more can technically fit into star-officer ranks.
