  1. NC, in the event you ever read this or ever care, which isn't likely, you need to proactively fix a problem where characters having numbers in their name (from merge) can spam the shit out of looking for group with gold seller ads, making anything of use in the channel hard to find. Can't block or anything: "That character does not exist."

     

    Fix?

    Well, drops are good...under lvl 51. 

    Thus, one of the fun aspect of Aion WAS grinding. I remember went Mephistis farm was full of people grinding.
    Now, you only see bots in Undirborg/Subterranea(or Calydon farming lvl 49-) since it's the only places in Balorean with item and kinah drops.
    Not sure why they are unable to detect their repetitive paths or even just put an observer for one day per month to suspend all bots account and restore at least some drops on world maps. At least make some mobs in Ingisson/Gelk drop some kinah.


    For instances like Telos/tempus(new intances), I understand some code is linked to the retail version but im sure they can ATLEAST add a generic gear/rare items/kinah box(green, blue, yellow or orange depending on mob's strentgh) which could make people happier. They could create a "hard mode" for older instances where you could play a lvl 50-55 version "Fire temple", aether lab or a revamped middle SR team instance which could have these boxes.

    Aion Classic is based on selling nostalgia. NC Soft US missed the target as people aren't doing the instances that were fun like Fire templeor theo labas people simply rush to get to lvl 55 (even very little Esoterance for 55 as the PVE people arent interested when there little gear involved). With a hard modes option,  I'm sure you'll have many players coming back.

     

    So much content I can't do in this game because there is LESS than no reward (drops), in fact it costs money. THUS - I don't play. 

  3. HAHAHA! THIS IS WHY SO MANY OF THE AION CLASSIC COMMUNITY ARE LEAVING. 

     

    NCSOFT REMOVES ALMOST ALL DROPS, THEREBY CRUSHING THE ECONOMY, DESTROYING THE BROKER MARKET, AND CAUSING COUNTLESS PEOPLE TO LEAVE THE GAME.

     

    IN GAME DROPS REMOVED = A CHANCE FOR NC TO TAKE CASH FROM YOUR WALLET SO YOU CAN NOW "BUY THEM BACK" WITH QUNA AND AT A ******* INSANE COST.

    The drop rate really needs to be addressed. Even if it's just a "We have heard you and are working on a solution". Willfully ignoring the issue is only driving more players away. It's sad to see too because when a new player does join the server they ask things like "how is the game on this server" and they get honest answers like: "Low population, no drops means it's hard to gear up. Probably better to go play on EU until they manage that into the ground too". At which point I assume a lot of those players do leave to go play elsewhere. Players feel no loyalty to the game because NCSoft shows no loyalty to their players.

    I'm only managing to play at this point because I got busy and took a break before 2.0, so coming back I still had a stockpile of white 50 manastones from when drops did exist that I upgraded to 60 stones which are mostly gone now, but once they are I will be completely blocked from progressing to new sets of gear. At that point, I'm probably gone again and I won't be back if I leave due to mismanagement. Aion Classic was already my last straw for NCSoft as well, so if you lose me here you lose me forever on all products you release.

    I honestly wonder if this mismanagement doesn't open you guys up to some kind of class action lawsuit for shirking fiduciary responsibility. Your stock price is down consistently since January of 2021, save for a bump/stabilization which appears to coincide with the Aion Classic announcement and launch, and then steep decline starting in November of 2021. At least part of this has to be caused by the absolute bottom tier management of this game (and frankly any others that have unfortunately been corrupted by your company). 

     

    A CM that logs in once a week to post patch notes is not a CM, it's an intern with CTRL+C CTRL+V.

    Completely ignoring a player base is why a game that has a great core is failing to keep people and is probably only making a very small profit because there is no one on payroll for it instead of being wildly profitable. It's especially sad considering any intermediate developer could resolve most of the issues the community is complaining about in a month. Then hiring 6 people to be logged in as a GM in shifts responding to claims of hacking, botting, etc. would completely resolve those issues in a short time as well. People bot because bots aren't banned. People hack because hackers aren't banned. If you're not banning people because they whale for you realize that when significant numbers of minnows and dolphins quit because of those whales you're losing long term survivability because eventually the whales will get bored when there's no one to play with.

    If I didn't think your company was destined for bankruptcy I'd consider offering to solve these issues as a contractor for development, but considering I don't have confidence I'd be paid that's not on the table right now.

    Also what's the deal with rewarding some random group as if you were running a contest. Is one of those players a staff member or have connections to a staff member? New stigmas are ridiculously strong and expensive, selectively giving those out without announcing that they would be a reward is just blatant favoritism. Not a great way to inspire confidence in the community, especially since (of course) it's "the rich get richer", and since it's impossible to catch up to the top end players thanks to issues caused by the drop rates it's a great way to discourage the rest of the player base. If I was taking the game seriously I'd be considering quitting just with that revelation.

    Finally, what's the deal with the forums not letting me rename my account. This account has been around since retail beta and though I haven't used it consistently in a long time I can't change my display name which seems like your web admin installed it wrong or something.

     

    There have been some great suggestions from the community in this and other threads. Read them, do some of them. Before it's too late (if it isn't already).

    As the only one B-tier Assassin, the Founder and Original Brigade Genera of <Bunny Mafia>, the ex-member of <Access Denied>, and currently the Brigade General of <and friends>, I truly appreciate you calling me out for getting summoned to the Ingission Main Fort to dive people on a daily basis. Though where's the Glide Hacker accusation coming from? 

    Btw this is the best dive I ever done alone.

    $15 for 11 candies?  Who the f u c k buys this sh i t?

    Why do you morons insist on selling candies for so much, you surely only sell a limited amount. If you morons had any brains you would lower the cost to like $5 and increase the amount to 20.  You would make more money, but as we've established you're morons and will never learn.

    NC TAKES THE MONEY OUT OF YOUR POCKET AND PUTS IT INTO THEIR POCKET.  YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A PIGGY BANK.

    FIX THE DROPS IN GAME SO MORE PEOPLE STOP LEAVING? IT'S BEEN A MONTH OF PLAYING AND I'M MORE BROKE NOW HAVING PARTICIPATED IN ALL SORTS OF EVENTS AND DAILIES AND CRAFTING THAN I WAS BEFORE. 

     

    I HATE YOU NC. REALLY DO

    Shall I even bother to mention there's no point in turning in AP and Medals for PvP gear when you need DOZENS if not HUNDREDS of enchant stones to get 6 in a row? CAN YOU ANSWER THAT NEW COMMUNITY MANAGER? You won't though, right? THE GAME IS AT AN IMPASSE for your most active players. The broker has next to ZERO manastones and those available are far beyond affordable... again needless to say a single person needs an inordinate number per single piece of gear. 

     

    NC doesn't care about players. It cares about pumping little child skins into the broker and collecting $$$. 

     

    Insane.
